"Alright, thanks." He entered the office and bowed, "Prince Maekar." He looked at the Master of Laws. "I'm Ser Maryn Drinkwater."

When Maryn entered, he saw Maekar sitting behind his desk, and a tall, muscled Summer Islander sitting in the seat facing the prince.
"Yes, Ser Maryn, this is Ashurgi Saboa," he said gesturing to the Islander.
"Now, you wish to pursue the bounty on 'Brown' Ben Waters. I have just asked Ashurgi to carry out this bounty, but as I do not yet have an accurate idea of his skills, and nor do I have of yours, it will be best if you work together on this."
Ashurgi grunted his assent.

"Doesn't matter to me my prince, I'd welcome some company in any case. Good to meet you Ashurgi." He nodded at the big black skinned man.

Ashurgi slightly turned his head to the side to where Maryn was standing behind him and gave a chin jut as greetings.
"Good, the two of you will travel to the town of Ashford together. There is a whorehouse there called the Sweet Cherries, where two prostitutes were killed about a fortnight ago. It is possible this is where Brown Ben is now."

"So you want this man alive as possible?" Maryn asked, horrified about the idea this man actually ate people.

"Yes, alive, that's what the bounty is for. If he is dead you will receive nothing but the knowledge that you have prevented any further innocents being hurt by this man."

"Hmm, bounty don't matter to me, but since this will be a team effort, we'll get this guy alive so Ashurgi can get the reward. I'm good to go whenever good man." He nodded to the prince, "Is there any other instructions for us?"

Maekar shook his head. "No, good luck," he said, returning to his work.
Ashurgi rose and followed Ser Maryn out the office.

"So what's the plan then?" Maryn asked as they exited the office. "I take it you have more experience with this sorta thing."

"We go to Ashford, and find a trail. The prey will not be in Ashford anymore, I don't think, but we will learn something new there," he said, his voice still carrying the Summer Islander accent, but it was obvious he had spent many years in Westeros.

"Yea that's what I was thinking. Always heard about bounty hunters but never really worked or talked with one before." Maryn scratched the side of his face with the big scar on it. "I'm assuming this guy likes towns and has some sort of hideout where he...conducts his business."

Ashurgi shrugged, "maybe he eats them inside, maybe he eats them outside. Maybe he wants to hide what he does, maybe he wants to share his barbarism with the stars. I do not know. We need to get closer to him, get an idea of his scent, so we can follow it."

"Alright, then, well I'll gather my things and we can head out as soon as possible. I'm eager to get back on the horse."

Ashurgi nodded. "Meet me at the Gate of the Gods at daybreak. We will set out then."
