"It's fine," She said offhandedly.

The dwarvish girl finally came back with a bundle of arrows, and dropped it on her counter with the other things Nera had asked for. 

Nera gave her a nod, and paid quickly, emptying most of her personal funds from wallet to do so. She gathered the stuff in her arms, and made for the door.

"To melt it all down, we'd have to find someone willing to do that who won't tattle--Do you have any black market connections?"

"I... Yes. A few. Don't think they'll be too happy to see me, but they'll do it for a cut of profits."

Nera seemed surprised to hear that. "Well . . . that doesn't seem like a horrible option."

"It'll take some convincing to get Lusha to go along with it, she's one of those rule-follower types . . . Maybe I'll bribe her with the arrows . . ." Still thinking, she gathered the supplies she'd payed for and left the way stop.

"Back me up, okay?" Nera said with a smile at Eublech as she made her way over to the wagon. It was about mid morning, and the traffic on the road was picking up a little.

"So, Lusha, Eublech and I were talking about what our plans should be once we get to Morduno," she said.

"Well, we don't really know who to meet up with now that the Master and Lady have bailed on us, and even if we do figure out who to rendezvous with they might not believe what happened so . . . we were considering less conventional options."

If Dint were awake, he would have loudly protested.

Eublech nodded. He wasn't always very eloquent but he'd try his best.

"We all of this . . . cargo on our hands that we really shouldn't have, and it makes travelling a lot slower, so I thought we could turn it over to people who know how to handle it."

Nera glanced at him as she spoke. Why was he nodding his head so much?
