"If someone specifically remembers getting a particular object off a cultist I believe that is fine though I will want to consult someone with more applicable experience to be certain. We can always use arrows, scrolls, and potions."

She nods. "If you don't want to buy them now, we can bring some along to our meeting with Irabeth or Anevia, if they end up showing."

(Hopefully it'll be Anevia. She bets Anevia will be more reasonable than Irabeth about buying stolen goods.)

"Thank you."

"Don't let Brother Woljif get himself killed."

"Hey, c'mon, I'm not that much of a pushover!"

"I will do my best."

"You are welcome to stay until the interrogation is finished, unless you have other matters you need to attend to."

"How shall we let you know if someone is available to meet you at the ugly building and when?"

"You could come back and inform us?" she says in a confused tone.

"Nah, he's been dragging us halfway around the city, no way he wants to come back here if he can avoid it." Sigh. "Just pick a time and make him promise he'll only give them the location if they're not going to fuck us over, it's" a great trick for getting Lawful people to do what you want "not like he hasn't been here already."

"That probably works fine, yes. - have you considered getting a familiar?" Blai asks Woljif.

"I'm mostly self-taught, I never figured out how to pick that one up."

"Is that so? Perhaps you are a more impressive wizard than I had originally surmised. Will you tell me more about how you learned wizardry?"

He glances around at the rest of the party. "...Maybe later."

"Nenio, have you ever had one? They're useful."

"I have a bonded object! According to my research, it is very rare for someone to have both a bonded object and a familiar at the same time. Perhaps if thief boy is able to seek out formal training, he will be able to learn how to establish a bond with a familiar."

"Understood."

As far as he knows that's all their business here.

Locusts! A street that seems to have somehow sprouted another hole since the last time he walked through it! Actors trapped under rubble!

And here's the Defender's Heart.

Actors? What are actors doing out and about?

Anyway, he gets in line for Irabeth.

(They were holed up in one of their houses, but they ran out of food and water, and then when they tried to leave they disturbed some fragile infrastructure and got stuck. They are very grateful for the help!)

Here's Irabeth! She is handing out meal tokens to a patrol, but that only takes a few moments to finish.

"Select! Your report?"

"We have the location of a secret passageway into the Garrison. Its providers would like to talk to either you or Anevia conditional on you not exploiting the meeting, about further aid they might be able to render and maybe also about purchasing some loot they've picked up if they distinctly remember any of it coming off of demons or cultists instead of other sources."

Nod. "Your assessment is that they sincerely intend to help?"

Hand-wobble. "I think that is the current inclination of the prevailing mood among the group. We might reasonably settle for worse."

Nod. "But you don't think they're, for example, cultists plotting an ambush."
