Busana listened quietly to the sneak thief, and did not betray any thoughts she may have about what was shared. After Dalliance had finished telling the information she wished to know, she simply nodded. She looked at Ragnar, and jerked her head toward the door. Dalliance sat up, about to protest, until Busana flicked her eyes toward him, causing him to rethink what he was about to say and sink sullenly back against the seat.
She exited the room, and walked toward Gunther. He looked up at her, and she stated, "You need to clean your house. There's a group of unauthorized assassins working within it, probably the tunnels. It's bad business, when you fail to get your cut of the profit. Don't you agree?" The fat man narrowed his eyes slightly, and then nodded as he waved his hand in a bored manner. Three of the individuals lining the walls, pushed away from them and slunk off toward the exit.
She continued, "Your eyes and ears are blind and deaf to the people I'm looking for, so my guess is they're also in the tunnels. Got a map by chance?" Gunther bellowed out in laughter and shook his head as he said, "Sorry Busana. Nobody goes down there for long enough to map out. The only one that knows those tunnels, isn't here... and quite frankly I haven't seen him for the last day or so." Busana nodded, and folded her arms as she asked, "Would you perhaps know of the entrances? It's been a while since I've been in the stink hole of a city. I know there's an entrance near Magpie... where are other entrances in the vicinity?" Gunther scratched his chin thoughtfully with the tip of a dagger, and smiled as he asked, "What's in it for me?"
Busana unfolded her arms, and asked, "What is the information worth to you... and I'll let you know if I agree to pay." Gunther stared at her for a few long moments, and then muttered, "The usual. I still don't have enough gall to demand much more of you. You're not much into the whole counter-offer thing I hear. Something about a lot of your disagreements end poorly for those involved against you." Busana shared a chilling looking smile, and Gunther nodded as he said, "Yup. The usual then." Busana reached into her cloak, pulled out a small leather purse and tossed it to the guild master. Gunther didn't bother to count it as he said, "Ok, around Mapgie... there's Plynth St to the north, Galvenston St to the west, and Kilbarn St to the east. South... well that's where we are." Busana nodded, tucked her braid into her cloak and raised the hood as she said, "Thank you."
Gunther lifted his eyebrows in surprise and stuttered, "Y..you're welcome Busana. You're always welcome to come work for me you know." He grinned, revealing his nasty yellow teeth, as Busana shook her head and replied, "I think I'll stick with free lance, but will remember the offer." She nodded for Ragnar to follow, and led the way out of the cellar. As they climbed the steps up to the alleyway she whispered, "I say we go to the Plynth cover. Galen and Mark would be traveling north, and it's the most likely exit they'll come to."
