A small and friendly town in daylight, but you'll never know what might lurk in the old and narrow lanes in a moonless night....

*Dark night and still pouring outside the inn. Waves at Jack and Camri.* Go ahead, I'll just visit an old and far travelled friend of mine who might know something about your sword. I'll see you in Rivendell. *Disappears into a narrow lane*
*Slippery cobblestones, a row of empty barrels at the backside of the Prancing Pony. Walks fast away from the town center. The lane between the old and dark houses becomes even more narrow. A slipping sound and a muffled shriek behind her from another street. Turns around and draws her sword. Two shadows on the corner, the shine of blades mirrored on the wet cobblestones. Hides in a dark entrance and reaches into her pocket, searching. Her fingers touch a coin. Takes it and throws it down the street. At the sound, two hooded figures silently rush past her. Grins and steps into the street behind them * Good evening, gentlemen, how can I help you? *Both figures skate to a slippery halt, falling over another. She walks over to them, placing her blade at the throat of the one on top of the sad heap.* Now, who might you be...? *The hood falls back, revealing the face of a mere boy, now on the verge of tears...* Why do you follow me? *The other one tries to get up. She pushes him on his knees. *Before you may introduce yourselves, throw your weapons away.* Two knifes are handed over. She looks at them and shakes her head.* Now, what is all of this about?*
to be continued...

*Looks at Lorelei*. They belong to you? ? ? Well, boys, she just saved you from worse... But I still like to know, what or who made you follow me...There must be another reason because Lorelei and I are easily told apart even in the dark. Although this person must be really desperate to hire you...You better tell the truth now, I'm running out of patience.
