"I agree, the empire has already failed. I have a question since you are returning to the college, is their anyone their who knows geography, enough to point me in a general direction of something based off a small sketch?"
Brian
"I might be able to. What is it?"
*She seemed excitef to actually do something interesting for once. At least helpful.*
Kevin
"Well my primary profession is as a mercenary, as of lately I've been doing a lot of bandit hunting and this paper is all I have to lead me to their hideout."*Latkir says making up some excuse that sounds plausible, he pulls out a small note and folds it to hide some writing at the bottom and he shows her a sketch of Autumnwatch tower*"I was told it is somewhat far away, but their not exactly sure where the place is, if you could point me in the right direction it would be very helpful."
Brian
*She looked at it. Gazing before it hit her.*
"Oh? Thats far south of Ivarstead. Near the Pale Pass to County Bruma. I was down there looking for any little artifacts from the Akaviri Invasion when Reman became emperor. I went the wrong way and had to scale a hill to get onto the pass, and i saw those 2 towers. It's out of the way but it sticks out."
Kevin
"Thank you. I suppose I'm going to make my way their in the morning, tomorrow. Those bandits arnt going anywhere. Goodluck with your metal research."*Latkir says with a laugh as he takes another drink of his wine*
Brian
"Yes, hopefully so i can get it over with."
*She said monotonously.*
"I don't get you mercenary types, I don't take pleasure in killing."
Kevin
"I don't really take pleasure in the act of killing I take pleasure in using my skills to earn a living. What else do you expect me to do go to the college and try to become some type of teacher, maybe in another life. I would not be able to handle sitting in a class room for hours at time again just going over the same thing, even if I was the one teaching it. It would be a boring existence in my opinion
Brian
"Hm. It's difficult to find meaning in such an existence, but it is a worthwhile one. You pass on your skills to another, and another. It isn't the now, its the future. Its the grand scheme of things. The ability to have a part in the Song of the World."
*She downed more wine.*
"How philosophical i become when I drink, i usually just would've told you to go away."
