Mr Mafia

Might as well as try those two. Conventical Of Seran and Luthadel. 

@Rhapsody

I think that the Pits Of Eltania are the most likely right now. Not only is its name related to the underground, it is literally underground and a bigger focus in its book than pure lake was.

@Scion of the Mists @luckat @DoomStick

I don’t want to lose our turn. Jah Keved. I think that we should try for one of our other guesses as well. Might as well try Luthadel right?

@Rhapsody

Ok, so I think that we all agree with, Tranquiline Halls. Jah Keved seems like a likely guess as well. I’ll leave that up to you guys though.

@Rhapsody

Well, those are good guesses. I could only think of one other thing, The Conventional of Seran. I think it is a bit of a stretch, but it is a depression in the ground that is inside an ancient fortress. Other than that wild guess, the other three sound good to me.

I will also join. This time, victory will be mine!

*Rolls a critical fail* . . . Next time!

"Thank you sir! Is there a traveling fee or a free trip?"

Teksa looked in the direction the man was pointing, which was out into the harbor. A big glorious boat appeared over the horizon, coming ever closer to the docks. Teksa felt his heart bounce and a smile touch his face. The time for him to leave was getting closer and closer, he just couldn't believe it! What was he going to find out there? He did a quick check up on his bags to be sure that he had everything. 

A couple of warm comfortable blankets, loads of chalk, books for reading (a few are dedicated to investure and how it works), clothes, rations, waterskins, a small sum of spheres, and a knife. You can never be too careful right? All of his belongings are stuffed into two bags that he keeps very close to his person, wouldn't want someone stealing one of his bags after all. But why should he carry them himself?

Teksa grabs one of the many pieces of chalk in one of the bags and starts drawing a very large and detailed man on the ground. It only takes him five minutes to finish and he looks proud of himself when he looks at his handy work. He suddenly looks extremely focused on the drawing, which starts pulling itself from the ground. The Chalkstruct stands at six feet tall and wears an overcoat and fedora. It kind of looks like Teksa, except it, looks way more handsome, with very pronounced muscles. Without a single word spoken or action taken from Teksa, it takes the bags proffered by his arms.

I agree, I just wanted to offer every option. I even had a third one, though I cut it out because it was the biggest stretch ever!

The shadow clue, which I also think is incomplete, might be referring to one of two things; in order of the most likely.

First, Marsh who lived in the shadows for his entire life. He is the most probable.

Second, Tekial Tower is in the shadow of of Ironspire and is tall enough to be obscured by the mists.

A scarred faced man walked in time to hear about a raid. He went to the bar and got a fresh glass of lemonade and cake. He then sat across from his possible employer. He ate his cake slowly, savoring every bit of flavor. He then turned his attention back towards the man and asked him,

“What kind of raid is this, when does it start, and how long will it take? I plan on leaving for the other side of the world soon, but would like some extra coinage.”

Ah, smart. I’ll wait for what the others say on Michael, but I’ll go ahead and bold Soulstone for now. @Ashertliden, @Turtle373?

I have to agree with the current guesses and think you should also just go for Michael.

“Uhhh, yes I am.” Teksa said. He looked around like he was trying to see if anyone else was watching or listening, then said, “Who are you and why interested about me being interested in the other side of the world?”

@xinoehp512

Teksa looked up over not expecting to hear from anyone else. He walked over to the stranger when the girl didn’t respond to him. “What do you want?” He asked cautiously.

“Why thank you, I’ll have to get another before I leave.” Teksa said to the fisherman. He took the piece of paper and read it. He didn’t know if he had any extra time though. He really wanted another fortune cookie. “I guess I’ll have to ask someone.” He sighed.

Teksa looked around, but the only other people here were the fisherman and the lady still reading her deck of cards. He stood up and walked over to the girl and asked her, “Do you know when the next ship to the other side of the world leaves?”

@Sorana

Teksa looked at the fisherman and nodded his head in agreement. He then grabbed his basket of baked goods and put it between them. “You want some?” he asked the fisherman.

@Silva

A ship appeared over the horizon and moved at a fairly quick pace towards the dock. It wasn't the prettiest barge, but it got Teksa here from Earth (One of them at least). The ship looked kinda like a pirate ship and even had a crows nest, which Teksa was in at the moment. He watched the city grow ever closer. The anxiety inside him tensed for a moment. But he looked down at a basket of baked goods at his feet, TUBA. He knew he had friends to back him up if he ever got in trouble, no need to worry right?

The ship stopped at the dock and Teksa, it's sole cargo, got off and took in his new surroundings. He knew he wasn't staying for long, but did notice a girl with a box and card which she was reading pretty intently. Maybe she was friendly, or maybe not. Teksa didn't want to take the chance, so he instead sat down, watched the sunset, and ate his delicious baked goods. He just arrived in this world, but he was already going to explore its other side.

Anyone have guesses for the Shadows clue? 

Edit: Never mind. I like Ambition, so all good. 

Sorry, I should have asked everyone if they thought Ambition would be a good guess. I just got a little bit ahead of myself. 

Nice! And, if I may be so bold, My last guess is Ambition.

@Turtle373

Alrighty, I guess I’ll make a guess. Trelagism and First Contract.

@Ashertliden

I think that he is doubling down on Trelagism, which was also a big thing in shadows of self along with paalm. The other number is probably the first contract, she was the Lord Ruler’s right hand Kandra and alive during the first contract.

@Totally_Not_A_Worldhopper @Rhapsody @Ashspren

I think that it was referring to Trelagism, Ambiton, and Lastport. Trelagism because it is in the books shadows of self and is in the shadows as a religion. Ambition because it makes shades, which are referred as cognitive shadows. And lastport because it is in Threnody where the shades are.

ok, but you'll have to wait for ashertiden to post a clue, then you can guess

Yeah, I was just telling our wonderful Spy Master that so that he has the option of giving us a hint for something else.

For blue team, I think I know what the shadow clue was referring to.

I would also like to give this a shot, is there a place for a lonely Mafia like me?

Actually, as much as I want to RP a psychologist for the Alleyverse, I think that I'm going to wait. I want to try out one character first, then maybe add him later.
