Yozs's room at "The Bathing Maid"

[The Smith]

Yurie turned and locked the door behind himself, "I guess that depends on what the job is." He looks around the room catiously.

[Flex]

Damn him. "The Lady Royce." Darien simply said. "I do not know if she is currently at Duskendale or not, yet there is where I would have her killed. As a sign that no Lord or Lady is safe in their own keep."

[The Smith]

"That might be hard. The guards must have been increased at Duskendale recently." Yurie replied.

[Flex]

Darien made himself smile. "That may be true. However, I hear the lady likes to go for rides, often by herself. Should that not present the perfect opportunity? All alone in the woods... at least she will not be behind locked doors." He put the tiniest accent on the last two words, hoping his men would hear them and Yurie wouldn't notice.

[The Smith]

"People behind locked doors are always think they are more secure then they should." replied Yurie. "But it is possible. I have never been to Duskendale, so I will tak one quarter of the gold upfront"

[Flex]

Darien slowly got up and walked to one of the windows. He looked outside briefly and then turned. "The gold is on the table. Take a quarter of it out of the bag. Is there anything else you need to know?"

[The Smith]

"WHo are you, and where should I pick up the rest of my gold." He looks to the pouch with hungry eyes.

[Flex]

"Why, my name is Darien Stone. I am the lady Royce's brother. The rest of the money I will have brought to you at this very Inn, once the job is done."

[The Smith]

Yurie nodded and stepped closer to Darien, "And why did you come all the way to Maidenpool to higher me?"

[Flex]

Yozs kept his eyes on Yurie as the man stepped closer to his master, prepared to fire his crossbow at the assassins leg should he try anything. Darien himself loosened the hidden dagger in his sleeve.

"I heard you resided here; as my servant might have told you, I like to meet the men I hire myself. My personal philosophy is to never let someone else do your hiring."

[The Smith]

"Are there no good men closer to Duskendale?" He asked quietly.

[Flex]

"Not one's with your reputation, Yurie. It would not do well to let someone so close to Duskendale kill the Lady Royce."

[The Smith]

"I believe there are many skilled men to be found in King's Landing, some perhaps a hair better." he said darkly. His eyes move around the room again.

[Flex]

"Are you suggesting that you are a bad choice? Perhaps I should let someone else get their hands on the money..."

[The Smith]

"I am concerned about the situation. And would like to hear your answer." His eyes darted to a window in the room.
