Well! That was charming. I love being chased by mobs of shadow critters, really, I do.

I just wish they'd chewed on a less expensive pair of boots.

[She's making it sound worse than it was. Chloe is quite good at getting away from danger.]

Everyone else in one piece? Not that I really know many of you, but the less of you are there, the less interesting things become.

Oh, and to the, um... alien-looking chap and the handsome little man who saved my skin at the station, thanks.

...a mercenary? You take hostage on the road?

[desperate_times]

No, mate, I'm a driver.

I get people from point A to point B in one piece.

[caditquaestio]

Ah. A lawful trade, then. Good. I would not have offered to help find you new leather for your feet otherwise.

[desperate_times]

[Lawful is such a sticky word. And she almost says as much except he throws in that last part.]

There's a place where I can get my boots repaired?

[caditquaestio]

Perhaps. Depending on the wear and the mark and the leather, certainly.

Though it might prove the easier to find you a new pair.

[desperate_times]

And pay for them with what?

[caditquaestio]

Well asked. It will depend on the master we find you. People here want for strange things.

Well, how can they be blamed? They have food and drink and roof above their heads. They can afford luxuries now.

[desperate_times]

What kind of strange things?
