Second Helghan Empire wrote:Great Gate District
Paladin Artose
The Paladin was stunned by the forward nature of Liam Karlani. A bribe like this was surely something he didn't want spoken about in the open air. For most aspects the Paladin was an honorable man, his father had taught him to be such a man, however, Artose had a pair of twins on the way, confirmed by a Life Weaver. He could use more money and he knew his men in the gate district would like the extra income too.
"Why don't we step into my office inside the Gatehouses Mr. Karlani, a more private setting would do our conversation good."
The paladin stepped in and closed the door behind Karlani. He motioned to a seat in front of the desk and took his own behind it. He looked at Liam blankly for a moment before letting out a large sigh and leaning forward elbows on the edge of his desk and hands clasped together just inches from his face.
"I have to say that was a rather foolish thing to do in the open area at the main gates." Artose's eyes assessed the young man more thoroughly.
"However it is a generous amount to say the least, anything less and I would have arrested you and you men immediately for attempting to bribe me. However, while it's enough money, I also need a favor from you and yours before we move forward on this, and of course there will be certain, things we simply won't be able to do."
He let that sink in a moment before standing again. He walked over to a sealed cabinet and unlocked it producing a stack of missives. An assortment of orders, dispatches, and other information regarding a growing issue in the city. They bore the differing marks of several different districts of the city.
"These are from my fellow Paladins in other districts, they pertain to an organized crime syndicate now threatening the sanctity of my city. Our guards are too well known throughout the districts to make any more headway in identifying and arresting their leader. You infiltrate them personally and get close up to whoever is in charge, then help us ambush them, and I won't just be on your payroll, I will sway the other districts in your favor. Are you up for the task?"
Artose slid the bundled papers into a small satchel bag and slid it across the desk to Liam. However he tightly grasped it waiting for the man's reply.

Second Helghan Empire wrote:Archon Hall, Duel Pit
In the pit at the center of the Archon's main hall, duelists usually fought to first blood. However it seemed, in keeping with their reputation, the Chios duelist was putting down any who crossed him. It would take a weaver to properly remove the blood soaking into the flooring. Keoron leaned against a far wall idly watching as the champion butchered his way through his opponents. However one thing Keoron couldn't help but notice was those foolish enough to jump in without assessing their enemy were Capital born. Most were professional duelists and against other capital and most noble house duel champions they would have been feared, but like Keoron, this Alexander Chios was not a city duelist.
Keoron slowly walked forward from the edge of the room. An ogre created by some cowardly flesh weaver. Keoron wasn't a big fan of flesh weavers except at carnivals. At the edge of the duel pit he greeted Alexander.
"I will fight you, first blood, winner buys the other a drink at my favorite pub back in market district." He grinned as he spoke, being as friendly as possible. He wanted a good duel but also wanted to work with this man.
Keoron removed his over coat revealing his dueling attire, form fitting and comfortable the material was padded and had small pieces of channel metal embedded throughout it. He awaited a proper answer from his possible opponent before he entered the pit or drew his blades.

Paladin Onterose nodded in agreement with Liam as he left and waited a few moments before he returned to the district. He felt somewhat dirty, but surely he had made the right decision. He had even managed to get the Karlani to help rid the city of the growing organized crime. He hoped the move would come to fruition. However he had a few plain clothes clad guardsmen keep their distance from Liam but also keep their eye on him. Not close enough to intervene or be suspected by anyone he dealt with, just enough to note where he went in his search. Even if he failed, if he got farther than the guardsmen had, his help will have been appreciated for leading them onto the path of the ring leader.

Dueling Pit, Archon Hal
Keoron smiled as the man accepted and introduced himself. He pitched his overcoat and removed his belt bearing the sheaths for his blades. Drawing both his sword and dagger he crossed to be in front of his opponent. The lightning buildup around Alexander had Keoron move backward into a defensive pose. He channeled his flames into his sword and dagger as the lightning arced toward him.
Deflecting and sidestepping the attack Keoron advanced toward Alexander, moving into an aggressive posture and propelling himself forward ringing his flaming blade in a wide arc back around toward Alexander's left side, sweeping the sword downward slightly and aiming for his abdomen. Simultaneously Kereon moved his dagger into a guard position for the impending counter to his move. He shifted his weight putting force behind his sword while creating a dragging motion that would deflect pressure from a counter that impacted his sword ino the hand guard to allow a stronger defense following his attack.
"It's a pleasure," Keoron popped off through a smile. "I'm Keoron Nelros."
Little more needed to e said at that moment. Keoron had seen the man's strength earlier it now he could get a better sense of it. A sense more like the gladiators and warriors in Catalia and Cruxia, Deadly, and powerful, born to wage war and slay opponents with his blade, like Keoron himself.

Daven Wurlt looked at the money in Liam's hand. It was a large sum, but the people he was asking about...they owned this district. He glanced around. A few knowing faces looked up at him with menacing glares. They belonged in one way or another to the Ilevi Syndicate. An alliance of three Criminal organizations all bowing to some hidden cabal. Everyone that lived and worked in the Docks District belonged to the Ilevi.
"I got information for sale, but I gotta know who I am dealing with before I can make a deal like this."
Daven fidgeted slightly but leaned in. He was past his prime but he looked as if he had once been a tough man, probably known for running a bar that didn't tolerate any sort of shadiness. However, years of crime and a lack of proper help had visibly worn him down. Now he was cautious and unfriendly.
(OOC: Sorry not my best post just trying to get it up as fast as possible)
