Admittedly he could easily have gotten rid of them at any time himself, but Orrun and Tyrara had been so elated at the success of their plan to spring the rest of the team from that pitiful little wagon, well, it would be poor manners to take that additional achievement away from them. And while he had, in principle, no objections to chains, ropes were far more artistic, and he preferred to be the tier rather than the tiee.<br/><br/>But that was another matter entirely.<br/><br/>"I have to say," he said, looking towards the woman he had hired to translate the book, "When it comes to keeping a low profile, you may have just a little bit to learn."<br/><br/>"Says the man who robbed a Guild caravan." murmured Opal, just low enough that it could be passed off as thinking out loud. "Oh, I'm sorry, please don't let me interrupt." she continued, in a more normal voice, and smiled winsomely.<br/><br/>Wei gave a long suffering sigh and turned his gaze back on their temporary associate. "As I was saying, I don't know what it was that you did to irritate those people so much, but I prefer not to be caught up in other peoples troubles."<br/><br/>"Aye." echoed Kedo. "Normally we have plenty enough of our own."<br/><br/>"Be that as it may," Wei continued, "We would prefer a lower profile than being desperately sought for some heresy." He paused and looked over at Opal. "We haven't committed heresy, have we?"<br/><br/>"Not that I noticed." Opal replied, "But the day is yet young." A soft rumble of laughter echoed round the tent.<br/><br/>"There you go." Wei replied. "No heresy on our part today. Now, I hope that we might conclude our business with a minimum further of interuption, armed assault, heresy or anything else, so we can all be about our own businesses after. Ah, thank you, my dear." he added as Kafani entered the tent carrying some bowls of porridge.<br/><br/>"Not exactly a royal feast, but it will fill an empty belly." she said, giving them all a small smile. Wei returned it, and indicated she should give the first bowls to their guests.<br/><br/>"Now," he said, "I realise you haven't had a great deal of time, but what can you tell me about this for now?" he said, tapping the book.<br/><br/>
