Part 3: The City of Crime

[Dracos]

Heading in, they were stopped at the edge of the camp.  "Who goes there?"

A couple of rowdy looking young men eyed them.

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"Jan Smith. I've come to deliver a message to you from Mr. Wright of New Reno." He stepped up.

[Dracos]

"I don't know any mr. wright." One of them snickered.

Dracos

[Dexie Oblivion]

Darx takes a sniff and mutters just loud enough to be heard.

"This man reeks of something awful...is it his natural scent, or does he use some sort of lotion to apply it?"

[Olvelsper]

Jan had a flicker of amusement bubble inside him, even as he was all business as he walked up to the hoard. "This is a message from the head of the Wright Family of New Reno. It would be in your best interest to take a look at it, sir."

[Dracos]

One of the older ones glared.  "A message huh?  You know what they say about the barer of bad news, right?" He was a big fellow as he smirked at Jan.

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"Don't think I have, no." He calmly handed the message to them.

[Dexie Oblivion]

Darx sniffs again, continuing.

"It's always amusing to watch brainless brutes try to be intimidating."

[Dracos]

Those who heard Darx quickly were getting hostile, watching the proceedings.

"Humph.  Let's head inside.  Kaj will handle this." He tossed the letter back and lead into one of the larger tents.

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"Calm down, Darx." Jan commanded as he caught the letter and led the group after the man.

[Dracos]

Leading in, they found themselves facing a tall man with black hair, muscular with a scar on his right cheek, dressed in black pants and with a gun strapped to his back and side.  "Hmph, what is it?"

Dracos

[Olvelsper]

"I've brought you a message from the Wright Family of New Reno." Jan held it out to the nomad.

[Dracos]

He took it and looked Jan over first, his eyes chilling as he looked for any signs of weakness.  "And why should we care what the wright family says?  You don't look like you come from them."  He hadn't yet opened it.

Dracos

[Dexie Oblivion]

Darx is obviously annoyed and distrusting of this man, but is trying his best not to show it.

The only sign of it is a slight ruffling of his wings.

[RyderHakubi]

"Like Jan said... we're not in the Wright family... we're just the ones delivering their mail." Ryda said from the back of the group.
