**The foyer was enormous and lavishly decorated. The floor was gold veined white marble, the furniture all plated or inlaid with gold, the upholstery, rugs and tapestries all featuring various shades of deep royal purple. At the far end were a pair of massive stained redwood doors revealing an even more massive ballroom with a floor of the same wood. Inside were dozen of people in fancy dress, many of them wearing masks.**
**Bakal nodded and went over to the pair he'd entered with, talking to them briefly and then heading out, Haaris and Esmina following along with the rest of them group and heading back the way they'd come from.
Diablis meanwhile was deep in thought after the exchange, something nagging at him.**
**Bwah took note, if they needed a distracted on the actual job, this might come in handy. Bwah quickly visually gauged if he could use his grappling hook to easily safely lower himself into the machinery room out of sight without making noise or burning himself.**
**Binxy's dagger sank into the chest of one of the crelefts, leaving it twitching on the ground as another bounded swiftly to the right and slashed at him with talonlike fingers.
Kit's fangs met carapace like thick glassy ceramic. He failed to knock it down and the two danced there for a moment, the creleft grabbing with its sharp talonlike fingers. The other creleft watched raptly, simple mind distracted my Kit's glowing eyes.
Colt's crelefts charged recklessly in, one leaping high, the other lunging low.**
Kasok - If he's got a card he's with us. We pick up a hunter in reaver country, fortune favors us. Name's Kasok.
Arena - Fortune doesn't care if you all bleed out in a ditch. Arena. You're a jakari?
Quinn - That grandmother is one of the heads of the Cleric church. Tryst, you didn't tell me...
Tryst - Of course not dear, I'm a professional. And what does it matter to you anyway, you aren't a cleric anymore.
Atropos - If he's coming willingly, which he better be, then you either brought us all because he's hard to find and you need a large search party or because folk here won't be too keen on his leavin' and you need muscle. Which is it?
**Lumarin was pulled from his resigned boredom by her call and looked over, catching sight of Dany as Quinn surreptitiously turn his face away and half hid behind Tryst. Lumarin's head cocked to the side and he whispered something to the woman whose arm he was on as he started to pull away from her, only for her to drag him back while never taking her attention away from the sylvan noble she was talking to. Lumarin grimaced and gave Dany helpless half shrug/half wave.**
Atropos - ...so Dryas....are the skeleton from actual people or just magical constructs that happen to come in skeleton form? Because if you needed a magically summoned crew and could only find one in skeleton flavor thats a bit more understandable.

Tryst - Of course not dear, I'm a professional. And what does it matter to you anyway, you aren't a cleric anymore.
Quinn - ...thats hardly the point.
Strigoy - Esmina.
Bakal - Miss Esmina, unless you have a safer place to go I rather not leave you here given the atmosphere, heavily armed or not.
Haaris - Alright, I've heard of your people before, wouldn't mind learning more.
