>
>
> Doxley shared a terse farewell with Izzy, Illien struggled with his loss of direction and TC offered to handle a disreputable task at the behest of Maeve Crittenden – this just after bumping into the warden's son and having a public dispute in the thoroughfare.
>
>
>
> As noon approached, the party gathered to speak with the Monteros, who were keenly interested in hearing about the cleric attack in the cusp – but TC's attention was drawn elsewhere when he seemed to spot someone he recognized heading toward the cemetery.
