Luc: *slowly ascends the staircase leading up to Budehuc, clad in his usual green overoat. He knows exactly who it is he is looking for, having seen the files when he was a Bishop, and heads to the location he specified in the anonymous letter to the Howling Voice agent; the second basement of the castle, where the mole guy was digging.*
Zaj: *he was already there, holding the open letter and waiting patiently for whomever it was that called him here. Still clad in his usual suit and looking more like a high class citezin than an assassin..*
Luc: Good afternoon, Zaj Quilous. *looks from the letter to the man* Your appearance hasn't changed much from the wanted posters.
Zaj: Hmm. I'd have thought most people would think me dead by now. I don't need to worry about wanted posters... *looks to Luc* So you're the one who called me here then?
Luc: I thought the same thing, yet nevertheless, your Guild already knows that I still breathe. *pauses* Yes, I am. I assume there is no need for an introduction.
Zaj: *raises a brow, having not been in touch with the guild since his 'revival'.* No... Enlighten me, boy. I have no idea who you are. I haven't been back to the guild since coming here...
Luc: I see. Tell me, how much do you know regarding Hikusaak's policies concerning True Runes?
Zaj: *snorts* More than I probably should. Though anyone who actually looks for the information can find it...
Luc: Of course, his greed is self-evident. Allow me to rephrase: Do you actually know what he does with them?
Zaj: Aside from sticking two on clones of himself, no, I don't.
Luc: Good. That is the answer I was looking for. I assume you know who Sasarai is; after all, he has dealt directly with the Guild in the past. What do you know of the other clone?
Zaj: Yes I know of Sasarai... The other clone was said to have been kidnaaped by an old Seer. I'd have said he was rescued.
Luc: No, I was not kidnapped; I left with Leknaat willingly. My name is Luc.
Zaj: *smirks a little* Aha, I see. So you're the other clone eh? Pleased to meet you. *has a bit of a better look at Luc, appraising him if you will* .... I'd never have thought Hikusaak was so.... short....
Luc: *narrows eyes, but doesn't comment on the subtle insult* Being born with a True Rune already on your body conflicts with the body's natural growth process. I don't exactly enjoy being stuck in a post-pubescent body.
Zaj: Heh, I've seen boys younger than you that are taller. No matter though, your height has no bearing on what kind of person you are, no the power you wield.... Destroyer Luc.
Luc: *makes a noise in his throat at the epithet* I see you've studied your history. *knows he was time-warped, otherwise he'd look older* Then, you can also take a wild guess as to why I am here.
Zaj: I'm guessing the same reason as the others from the past, or death. Some phenomenon transported you to this castle. Because like me, you should be dead.
Luc: *not what he meant, but okay* Before I get to the reason as to why I've asked you to come here, I'd like to inquire as to your motives on your attempts to manipulate the Latkje family. I've put two and two together and came to the realization that you wish to infiltrate the Harmonian council... why?
Zaj: Why else? To change the hellish way Harmonia operates. To make life more livable for the third class people like me. To make sure no more innocent countries were obliterated!
Luc: *smiles* Excellent. It seems we share a common enemy, and a common goal.
Zaj: Hm. And let me guess, you want to do something about this invasion of Harmonian 'merchants', that's why you called me here?
Luc: Myself and four others, yes. That is, assuming you still have a problem with Harmonians.
Zaj: I don't think that problem is going to go away anytime soon...
Luc: *smiles* Good. Help us, and I will guarantee that you will have a chance to strike back not only at Nash Latkje, but at the Harmonian pigs that oppressed your people for all of these years.
Zaj: *smiles slightly* Very well. We are after a common goal after all...
Luc: Excellent. Meet us at Nor at noon tomorrow. We will be moving to a more... discreet location.
Zaj: *nods* Alright. See you then... *turns and leaves at that*
Luc: *leaves as well*
