[IC] The Lesser of Two Heresies.
Klear:
"What is he talking about, Laz? Did he say sapphire?" asks MkLear, who has been trailing behind a little, so he didn't see clearly what happened.
LuckyDee:
"Some sort of gem. Makes you wonder what his scheme is. And you,", calling after HexaDoken, "what do you make of this?"
Spoiler (click to show/hide)About the gem, was it a rough piece, or was it cut - and if so, how well (roughly speaking, since I'm no jeweller)? Anything else distinctly noticeable?
Esther:
Since the group passed the first corridor I have been shadowing you guys. As you were all real busy talking, bumping into people and looking at stones, I didn't have to work real hard to stay unnoticed. Just making sure I kept my distance and falling in with the march of your boots seemed to do the trick. From time to time looking over my shoulder as if I expected someone to be watching me. Because one of you trailed behind a bit I didn't get to see exactly what happened with the prisoner and the stone. As the group moves on after the incident I follow silently, getting a bit closer, wanting to hear the conversation. Taking in every move and reading your body language with an amused smile....ready for anything
HexaDoken:
HexaDoken stops again. "Dunno." - he responds a few seconds later. - "A shiny gem. I'd probably sell it... but before that, I'd like to get a general idea what the hell is this thing."
"That man..." - he continues after a slight pause, - "...he totally looked like his life was depending purely on this gemstone. Heh, it might have a curse placed on it," - says HexaDoken as if it was a joke. Then he continues in a much more serious tone - "or it might be some artifact with arcane powers, which is actively sought by some cult or organization. We'd better be careful with this thing.
Klear:
"Sounds like the gem is quite valuable. Somebody might pay a nice sum for it," MkLear grins. "Then again, they might kill you just as well for it, sure as sure. It seems to be trouble in any case. You should get rid of it as soon as you can. It's probably more trouble that it's worth and we have trouble enough with the inquisition job..."
