Adventuring Band

In a weathered and damp inn on the road from Atritan on the Tilean Peninsula, Magsman Timus DePree waiting for his contact, sipping at the watered down hard spirits they served here. Throughout the afternoon, riders and foot travelers stopped in the shelter for a brief respite and warm mug of cheap hard cider. As the crowd grew Timus became aware that he was no longer alone in the corner table next to him. A dark hooded robe covered the face of the man, but yet a glint of metal was betrayed beneath the cloak. I understand that you may need the skills of some ahem, problem solvers, he spoke in a quiet whisper. Timus replied yes and that his master would pay a very fair price for copy of battle plans of Lord Savitoras army which is encamped less than 7 days ride from here. A very fair price indeed, when what you ask will cost more than just gold alone. A share of the spoils from the coming battle in the amount of 1 full share for each if the party members, the hooded man whispered back. Timus eyes grew wide as his did the math quickly in his head, as each of the army regiments only got 1 full share for the unit. A very costly price that had to be paid he thought, but quickly countered in that case the ahem, problem solvers had best show up on the battlefield to ensure the high price of the spoils beyond the gold was only paid the those whom survived the day. The hooded figure quickly thrust of out his hand and grabbed a dagger from his belt and drew the blade across the palm of his hand and said to Timus then on my blood I swear just that. And as quickly has he arrived, he was gone and Timus was again alone in the dark corner of the inn. Never knowing that what he had just spoken and agreed to was observed by others in the room, below in the cellar or even the attic.
