| Armir waits at the meeting place, A small pub called 'The Orge's foot'. A rather lovely name he thought. He sits a table, casually sipping at a small glass of wine. The informant was across from him, a small, burly man by the name of Jenkins. So far he hadn't said much. He didn't want to start early. Two more were yet to arrive. Armir glances at the door, sipping some more wine. He was curious about the people he was saddled with. He hoped they weren't a boring lot. |
 Stop. Calm yourself. You're an idiot. |
| Marcellus soon entered the bar. Despite the name of the place, it was actually a decent bar. He had half expected it to wreak of liquor and rotting wood, but it did not. He looked around, looking for the other mercenaries and the informant he would be working with, but he didn't know what any of them looked like. Eventually, his eye caught one considerably large man and one rather effeminate man, each conspicuous on their own, but together they simply emanated suspicion. If nothing else, they looked like they might be able to point Marcellus in the right direction. He walked over to the pair, his staff tapping the wooden floor of the bar with each step. "Pardon me, I'm looking for someone by the name of Jenkins." |
| Armir's ears perk up as the newcomer speaks "Jenkins...Why he's right here my good man!" he exclaims, pointing towards his companion. Jenkins turned to look at the newcomer, before going back to his papers. After a few seconds, he crosses something off, and asks "So, I assume your Marcellus?" "Marcellus? What a delightful name, If I do say so myself" says Armir, draining his glass. "Do take a seat. I'm Armir. Nice to meet you" |

| Stop. Calm yourself. You're an idiot. |
| Marcellus, happy to have found his job but taken back by the zealous greeting, took a seat next to the pair as one of his companions, Cathrine, snickered at his discomfort. "Y-yes, I am Marcellus." His words were a bit slow and stuttered, as he was recovering from the awkward compliment he received. He wasn't used to people complimenting his name. He thought it was more a strange name than a "delightful" one. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Armir." Marcellus attempted to steer through the greeting as quickly as possible, directing the conversation towards the mission. "So, if we may get down to business, what do we know about this outpost? How far are we from it? When was the last contact? Are there any known hostiles in the area?" |
| Well, aren't we an inquisitive one thought Armir, slightly pushing up his glasses. Smiling, he taps Marcellus on the back "Good questions, My boy. Well Jenkins, lets here it" Jenkins glares at Armir briefly, before producing a map of the region from his pile of papers. Spreading it out on the table, he points a stubby figure at a point on the map. "This is your destination, Outpost #21. Its located it the Caridean mountains, to the east. Its roughly 12 spans away. About three weeks ago, we lost all contact with them. Your jobs is to find out why." After a few minutes of allows the two freelancers to observe the map, Jenkins folds it away. "As for known hostiles...We have no idea. Your guess is as good as mine. " Satisfied that he had gotten the gist of it, Armir gets up, brushing himself off. "Shall we get going then?" |
| Stop. Calm yourself. You're an idiot. |
| Safa appears out of what seems like nowhere, holding jenkins map open in front of me. "so this is the destination, sorry I'm late" Safa says while folding the map back up and handing it to the now wary Jenkins. "Don't worry, I'm on your side", assures Safa as he looks at the other two, " so just to make sure, are we the only ones going on vacation" Safa says with a smile, moving my eyes to point out a guy really close to our group. |
