Baradis (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=280528.msg13792570#msg13792570) gives a bit of a laugh and mimes searching a money purse for coins (at least from the front, from behind it's just waggling a hand behind the half-open pouch) before pulling out a gold coin. "I'll bet this here and now that, more than power or sneakery, it was age that let 'em. This tower we're to look at was built when the city was young or perhaps before even then, and was left alone for fear of causing a situation like this. But now age has caused problems and we're cleaning up."<br/><br/>The azurin looks over the camaraderie on display. "And if I am wrong, well, feel free to call me that fool optimist in addition to my name."
