In which nothing is learned.
"Good morning Kitty. How was your night?" - Muz-Ra (smiling) "Good morning Red. It was better than expected!" - Kitty "No skimpy nightie last night?" - Muz-Ra "Naa. I got to bed late and just crashed. How about you? How'd your date go?" - Kitty "Better than expected too! The guards here in Whiterun seem to be quite fit. Their endurance is admirable." - Muz-Ra (under her breath) "Apparently so are the bards." - Udaran
"Oh? You and Mikael?" - Muz-Ra "Just a little fling. Nothing serious. But I'm famished! What do you say we go get some MEAT for breakfast for a change?" - Kitty "I think I've had my fill for today." - Muz-Ra
"Oh jeeze. Just stop it Red." - Udaran (aside to Kitty) "I think Udie could use more meat in her diet. Oh, I forgot, she's doesn't eat meat. She's a..." - Muz-Ra
"ENOUGH!" - Udaran
"Well at least >I< got something productive accomplished this morning. The caravan is back and setting up their camp outside the walls now." - Udaran "Oh? Did you talk to them yet?" - Kitty
"Not yet. They haven't even set up their camp yet. You two go get your breakfast. When you're done, we'll go talk to them." - Udaran "Sounds good!" - Muz-Ra
"...so now we're out to find Sabhira's daughter. And you are our only connection with her. Any information you can provide would be a tremendous help." - Udaran "This is a difficult thing. This one made a promise long ago. Of course, you could leave the gold with us..." - Ri'saad "No, that we won't do. It isn't lack of trust in you, but in her father. I will not rest until I see it delivered directly into the daughter's hands. Do you know where she is?" - Udaran "This one does not. Regretfully, this one cannot assist in your quest." - Ri'saad "Could gold help to loosen your tongue? I'm sorry to be so direct, but I must try all I can." - Udaran "Gold is a good thing, but this one does not make promises to be broken by gold. I am sorry, it cannot be." - Ri'saad
"Well, that's it then. Unless you have any other ideas?" - Muz-Ra (quietly to Muz-Ra) "Actually, I do." - Udaran "Thank you Ri'saad. While I cannot give all the gold to you to deliver, perhaps you could take this token bit of gold to her father and pass along the message that we are searching for them? We will await him for one week at H's chateau. After that we may be anywhere in our search." - Udaran "This one will deliver the message." - Ri'saad
"AND the gold!" - Udaran "Agreed, and the gold." - Ri'saad "Then thank you. May you walk on warm sands." - Udaran "And you." - Ri'saad
(walking back to Whiterun) "Udaran, do you really plan to just go back and wait for someone who may never come?" - Muz-Ra "Yes, this does not seem like a good plan to me either." - Ubergard (everyone looks at Ubergard) "What? I'm quiet. I'm not mute!" - Ubergard
