Damn. While she kept the annoyance from creeping onto her face, she couldn't deny that it was there. It said nothing for the bandits' state of health or coherence, as hearsay was hearsay--but caution first, always. That wasn't a number she liked seeing, rumor or not. Hmm...she thought about it. She wanted the power from that demon, and that meant taking him or her down herself. Letting some other groups do it for her would be...risky and unproductive.<br/><br/>But as she'd discovered, there were other, rival bands. Weaker by definition.<br/><br/>If she wanted Wan-Chin out of the picture...she would either have to do it alone, or get a group of her own, with her involved. A temporary deal, perhaps. If someone out there was willing to play ball, she could ally with them, and both sides could get what they want. Territory, in exchange for Demon-Power. Which was why she changed her tactic--rather than ask about the demon any further, she inquired about the other, weaker bandit groups. Which of them had the best chance of getting rid of the dominant one?<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">I wasn't sure what this kind of improv would require, but since Lyn is info-gathering again, I figured a roll for Diplomacy was appropriate.</div></div>
