In the absence of a stiff drink or bit of grub, you instead gulp down the knot of anxiety welling up in your throat! There’s no reason for you not to trust Morook and Volka, of course, but you didn’t expect to be telling them everything after… well, everything that just occurred!
Tzah-Tzie took the news about your little DEAL as well as could be expected, and while she might not be 100% jazzed about the idea, you know she’s got your back! Will Volka? Most likely. Morook? Maybe. That said, you don’t need to drop the RED bomb on them… not yet, anyways.
He saw those jerks earlier, right? The ones with the chip on their collective shoulder?
“Spice Cartel.” Morook sighs, his head already reaching the conclusion. “What happened?”
“We miiight’ve taken a job where we stole some eggs back from one of their slaving rings.” Explains Volka with a nervous laugh! “We played it real sneaky, ‘course, but they still caught wind of our involvement.”
The Chytree continues to stare. “... and then?”
“Ooh, right! We went to PEDRHA’S PLUNGE! Y’know, the bathhouse?”
“Oh.” Mutters Morook with a hint of envy in his tone, “That sounds… fun.”
“It WAS!” Volka chirps with an enthusiastic nod! “There was a snag, though: we got jumped by ASSASSINS in the private baths!”
“And guess who they worked for.” Grumbles TT, baring her pointy teeth at the memory!
“I’m going to assume they didn’t survive.” Morook observes, drumming his claws on the countertop.
Nope, you shrug, and you didn’t want them to keep following you around, so…
“So?”
“So we maaaay have attempted to assassinate a high-ranking officer in the organization…” Tzah-Tzie weakly answers.
“And blew up one of their biggest casinos in GOLD TOWN.”Concludes Volka with another uneasy laugh! “A-and that about sums it up…”
Taking a moment to process the information, Morook eventually lets out a long, despondent sigh.
“Out of all the things you could have decided to do upon arriving here, Anton,” He begins in a firm, but measured voice, “That might have been the craziest.”
Yea, you nod, well it could always get crazier… r-right?
“True,” nods the Ranger, “And I’d never forgive myself if I didn’t help out.” His eyes flicker as he turns his gaze back in your direction. “Never been a fan of those puffed-up bandits anyways. Count me in.”
You’re not sure how to respond other than the word ‘thanks’, to which the Chytree responds with a proper nod before turning his attention over to his sister! “I’m guessing the messages will have something to do with this?”
“P-please and thank you?” She smiles weakly! “I managed ta’ warn Ma, Pops, an’ Lila before we hit the casino, but-”
