<DIV>[Short version - Kell smooth talks his way out of it, ideally learning all he can. Less ideally he just smooth talks his way out then gambles. Either way he leaves in less than an hour.]</DIV>

<DIV>Kell sighs lazily, as if being handled and having dagger drawn on him is nothing new or that exciting. He also gives the men holding him the eye, raising one eyebrow at the tall man questioning him now. Again. Yet another fool to ask me questions. "I am Bal Tug. New in town. Looking for some action and seeing what I can see." He pauses at takes a long breath, eyes the men holding his arms then returning to the taller man, but he is still shorter than Bal Tug. Looking down his nose at the stinky man, "I'm going to follow anyone who owes me money, it's part of what I do. I do it very, very well." Grinning his assassin's grin, showing his slimey attitude.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>"I merely want a new place to gamble and drink for a bit. Then find some good work. I'll get the first here or somewhere else, I don't really care. The second, well, I can either start something on my own or find someone willing to listen. Someone with more pull than you three." Looking disdainfully at them, as though they're merely the scum that Bal Tug is used to dealing with, but below him.</DIV>

<DIV>[Er, I want to add more don't know what else to say. So feel free to add, etc. Can't wait to see what you do with this.]</DIV>
