On that note, Specks, you're either good at hiding or live under a rock.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Seattle Based, yes.  Redmond Barrens.  Thank you Chrona, Ms. Madrecita.  I'd take you up on going to the Tir lands, but I don't think they'd be too happy to see an ork there, and that might cause problems you folks don't want.  Maybe stay local and keep learning the ropes.  I can handle myself pretty good, just, um, well.  Not too sure of myself.  Wanting to or not, I have three generations before me with the street name I have to live up to and make proud.]<<<<<

>>>>>[All depends where in the Tir you go, Murphy. There are some parts where you'd swear it was almost like Seattle. And then there are parts where you could swear it was a Humanis stronghold, except everyone has pointed ears. There's been some conflict since the revolution as the anti-human crowd clashes with the anti-everyone-except-elves crowd. I can at least guarantee that you wouldn't have trouble with the Peace Forces if I was there with you.

And the only time you should play the dumb trog is when you are playing someone. When you're trying to manipulate someone, playing to their prejudices is always a good thing. And regardless of what some might say, we all have prejudices.

Madre, checked the info. Looks solid. If we can roll tonight, I'm free, and I'll set it up with my contact in the Tir.]<<<<<

Anyways, what do you all know about potentially possessed artifacts being shipped in from Egypt. I have a client who wants to more about the shipment but my normal source for shipping info happens to be a bit..... Dead.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Tonight is fine. Oh! And by the way...I found out earlier today that the politician in question was mostly being bankrolled by Aztechnology. Now that makes this run all the more delicious, don't you think?

Mmm...possessed artifacts from Egypt...No, I can't say I've heard anything like that, but I'll ask around a bit before tonight and see what I can find out. If I don't get back to you, assume I came up empty. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[I've heard a little about the artifact rush. None of it involving possessed artifacts from Egypt, though. Still, any artifacts are big business, which means there are going to be a lot of players. Not surprising you had something chase after you. As for what the artifacts do? There are people you could ask, but unless the Black Lodge, the leaders of either Tir, or certain great dragons owe you BIG favors, I don't think you'll get more than the rest of us know, which is somewhere in the neighborhood of nil. All I can say is that the artifacts must be pretty damn powerful, if they caused the Watergate Rift to close. Some more powerful than others, natch, but still, not something you want to be messing around with unless you know what you're doing.

And, before anyone says takes it the wrong way, I know enough about magic to know I have absolutely no clue what all these artifacts are supposed to do, and I'm not stupid enough to go poking the potentially unstable things to figure out how they work. Some of them, like ancient weapon foci, are self explanatory. But some of these other things...

And Madre, one of these days we're going to have to have a sit down about you and the Big A. Those are dangerous waters you're swimming in, girl.

Meet at Dante's at 8, before heading to get the kid?]<<<<<

>>>>>[ You know...I could be all gung ho...that's the correct way to say it, yes?...and state cliches like laughing in the face of danger, but...fact of the matter is, I know it's dangerous. They are dangerous. But so am I. Chances are they'll be the ones to take me down one day. Spirits know they've come close a few times. But if they do...it'll take some doing. Not speaking from...overmuch pride...Oh hell. You're right, Ice. One of these days, you and I will talk about Aztechnology. Perhaps I will tell you why I do what I do.

Oh. And Dante's is just fine. I'll see you there. Dante's is much prefereable to Power Line. ]<<<<<
