Interesting Alliances

Saw a man flashing a gold coin in the tavern. And what a surprise. Word of mouth was that he was hiring assassins. I figured that I should pay him a visit and offer my *services*. From what I've seen, none can compare to the talents that I have. Plus, none here know what I'm capable of.. thus it can become beneficial to both parties involved.

I had gone to his offices unannounced. Was impressed that the facilities were not only gated, but had guards patrolling the grounds. Some mentioned about someone or something named Atok.. should be an intriguing thing to investigate.

The guards escorted me to his offices. Either the man was expecting another person, or he was surprised that someone of my caliber would seek employment through him. I immediately sniffed out another man hiding within the offices. The man seemed to be well aware of his presence, too. Whether the hidden man was requested to do that by the prospective employee is something to be discovered. How could the idiot even *think* that he would stay hidden in the shadows. Even if he were wearing all black, I didn't see a mask nor gloves on him. If that is the kind of blundering halfwit that would be hired, I'll go far in this group.

Dropping enough vague references to my ability to assist in this man's endeavors, I believe that he'll send somebody to verify my credentials or background. I'll be ready for them. My paperwork has already been moved to another locale.. though I believe that they may find my quality of work with traps and snares to be.. sharp. If they are not attentive to the fine details, they may end up with lost fingers.

We'll see how things progress in this alliance...
