"Best not poke bears," Osbert whispered to the others as they descended the steps into the basement, referring to the First Level they just passed by. As they stood in the cold basement he did his best to ignore the woman hung by her wrists. They were ex-Dreadlords, they'd seen far more grisly...

"I'm never, ever, going to want a hat." He said in a monotone voice towards Shi. The thing that Os really wanted was to run this entire place with his friends. But that was a pretty tall ask for a single day. For now settling for the cash would be a nice start, and then... "a nice coat would...

"So," Os scooped another hefty serving of eggs into his mouth, "we're getting clothes," his speech slightly distorted as he spoke between bites of his breakfast. "And I guess we can find a shop that sells ritual... stuff." He had no idea what sort of information the girl who'd joined them...

Os managed to sleep through the sunrise sounds of the docks. Copious amounts of wine had helped his brain ignore that particular alarm that had forced Sybille up. What the wine didn't help with though was the pounding on his door. And if that dreadful sound wasn't bad enough, Shiloh's shouts...

"We'll top it tomorrow by doing whatever we want for a day. Should be a nice change of pace." Though he was certain he'd pay the kivren's a visit at some point tomorrow, just to make sure everyone was still on the same page. Os grinned, taking a quick swig from the bottle assuming Syb passed...

"It's alright," he said reassuringly to Syb, "been a long week." In truth it had been a long month, a long year. But he was content to just leave it to the past week for now. Osbert nodded along as Shiloh gave his demands. It all made sense to him and it turned out that letting the...

Os nodded along and crossed his arms. Shi would make a good manager and he was fairly certain the guy loved the idea of managing his own bar. Seeing Syb assert herself to this piece of shit was a nice change in demeanor too. He only saw her get like this when she was exceptionally frustrated...

This was not going the way Osbert had in mind. They already had to defend their hold on a kivren run dock and ideally would set out tomorrow to secure some other district in the city. Based on where Sybille and Shiloh where taking this they'd also have to manage a tavern? But... he'd made a...

His original guess was confirmed as they entered the tavern, this was probably the nicest place in the entire kivren district. Sure, it was still a shit hole, and sure, the patrons weren't exactly the kind of scene he typically frequented. But just scanning their liquor selection, or the fact...

”We can figure out the next district later,” though he still favored the idea of showing up with a surprise for them he wasn’t completely opposed to Syb’s plan, ”for now we have to go find some real estate.” Even though the idea seemed ludicrous to him, the trio had been sleeping in the...

"Alright, first order of business is finding a proper home here in the kivren district," by the end of the day they'd give a whole new meaning to the phrase, "window shopping." Os cleared his throat and looked towards Syb, ignoring Shiloh's comment entirely. "Looks like we have our afternoon...

"A chaise lounge, right, and a non-stop supply of bones," he took the large black dog in with a smirk upon his lips. Leaning back and places both arms behind his head he took in the room and considered the last thing Osha asked. The trio who arrived in Syzemore together had slept in the...

Osbert’s heart swelled as he listened to Syb requesting an extra five percent, as Shi explained the logic of it all better than he did, and even as the new girl made an additional demand about securing them an office location that doubled as a living arrangement. It was almost like they didn’t...

Shiloh’s blast sent the amulet flying, Sybille’s magic ended the summons, and Bes plus Osha were cleaning up the final two kivren (in their own way). The kivren leader emitted several angry clicks and gurgled whistles which resulted in the remaining defenders lowering their weapons and relaxing...

To give the kivren a bit of credit, a bunch of swirling masses of men with anarchnid water tentacles wasn’t what he anticipated facing off against in this room. There was no telling if they had to break that woman’s amulet, kill the woman, or if they were doomed to fight five human-spider water...
