The Manse of Lord Trei Delinal

[The Stranger]

"Florian Dagyon...lady," the man says with a snort of mirth.

[whatever]

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Florian Dagyon. So where is Lord Dutovan sleeping tonight? And how will we solve payment?"

[The Stranger]

"Third floor, door on the left," the man says, "and we'll see you later about payment, I'm sure your barge frequents the canals," he chuckles.

[whatever]

"My barge will be close to the Blue Manray in the next week or two, you can find me there. If there is nothing else, I think I will like to prepare for tonight."

[The Stranger]

"Good luck then se...madam." The men laugh, and depart.

[whatever]

Lysaer exhaled after the two men had left, feeling like he wanted to throw up. He had found out something important, and maybe Lord Dutovan were able to tell him more later tonight.

He rose and headed for the door-opening again and looked outside to see if it was clear for him to leave the room, and go to find the room where Lord Dutovan would be staying.

[The Stranger]

There were many men milling about, visiting various courtesans. As Lysaer's eyes adjust to the lighting in the hallway he notices the only way to get up the stairs to the third floor is to walk directly passed Lord Trei and the two whores with whom he is fondling.

[whatever]

Lysaer sighed, and returned to the room and sat down again. There wasn't much he could do, besides wait for the party to die down and then move up to the room, though he would have liked to inspect it first so that he would have a escape-plan should things go bad.

[The Stranger]

The party continues to rage until well into the night. Eventually it begins to die down a little bit, as some guests retire, and others simply pass out where they sit.

[whatever]

Lysaer had been pretty much safe inside his private room, only a few of the guests had come to visit him and most have just chuckled or left immidiately. He looked out the room once again, though this time he moved towards the stairs to head up to Lord Dutovan's room.

[The Stranger]

Lord Delinal is seated in the same spot as before, the two women still on his lap, although all three appear to be snoring quietly.

[whatever]

Lysaer moves up the stairs slowly, holding the gown up so he doesn't fall over, hoping that the stair won't make to much sound to wake Lord Delinal up.

Finally up the stairs, he moves toward the room where he was told Lord Dutovan would be sleeping in. He stops outside the door and listens for sounds inside.

He also looks around to see if there is anyone spying on him.

[The Stranger]

The upstairs are quiet as death, although as Lysaer presses his ear against the door he can hear a gentle quiet snoring from inside.

[whatever]

Lysaer moved his hand to the door handle to feel if it was locked or not.

[The Stranger]

The door is indeed locked.
