Lon took his time as he wandered, weaving along the edges of the square, acting the part of a somewhat clueless minor noble aspirant taking in the grandeur of the big city. He finally chose a merchant that had quite a few beggars nearby, and asked, in a loud enough voice for the beggars to overhear, "What a beautiful city; it is too bad it is so large one can get quite lost in it! I am looking for some servants of mine that seem to have been confused by the multitude of streets. Have you seen them?" He then proceeded to give a description of the men that were missing from the caravan.
