Unali has offered to tail our group and perhaps Fremea can join her. The two know how to avoid notice and can case the building while we occupy the staff. If they're lucky they might be able to find a way in and learn something useful.</div>

<div class="PlainText">Raddok felt uncomfortable at Arwan's apparent misunderstanding. "No," he replied to Arawn. "I do not really read Fomorian. But I have studied their mining maps and seen a few contracts done. I can recognize some words, and think I would
recognize is what I was looking at was similar to what I have read - or sorta read. I guess I know a few written words, but not enough to do more than bluff my way through reading mine maps, or to recognize some of these legal-type phrases - these, here, on
my contract. I know what I was told it said, & I had someone in a pub read it to me to verify what I was told. He showed me the phrases & what they meant.
<br>
<br>
I can try to act as his replacement, as long as they will accept me, a foreigner who speaks rather primitive Fomorian, as a possible replacement. But I knew nothing of the old captain's secret plans, and was told I was to be a foreman working with a dwarven
crew, since I speak their language - also a bit primitively, as Dorhak can probably tell you. [current Dwarf Elder level is 20; 60 is max; I'm not sure where a 33% speaking ability leaves Raddok] But I'm willing to try - but I should be coached in what you
need me to say - or imply." Raddok rubbed his chin thoughtfully. Then he grinned. "I would naturally be somewhat at wit's end, being as I was not supposed to be in charge of this ship - & I've had to depend on those who knew where we were headed. That I would
certainly not have to fake."<br>
<br>
He looked around at the others. "What would you like me to do - or not do?"<br>

A pleasant smile crossed Arawn's face when<br>
Raddok presented the paper and shared his story. He glanced<br>
over the paper before asking,<br>

"So, you can read Fomorian? That will be a<br>

Raddok has remembered something during his evening watch<br>
&, when relieved, goes to search out the Captain &<br>
ship's officers. He is lucky to find them together, and<br>
approaches Dorhak, Z'leyra and Arawn and a couple<br>
others, while they are in a discussion, and<br>
hands over an official-looking paper. He tells them,<br>
"I know my Fomorian is not too good, although I am<br>
fairly good with mining terms and teamster tradetalk, as<br>
well as the work of both, but I just remembered I had<br>
this," and pulls a folded piece of parchment-like<br>
paper out of his inner tunic pocket.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
"This is my copy of the contract I received when I<br>
originally was signed up by the ship's - former -<br>
captain as a miner and mining consultant-slash-assistant<br>
foreman. It's not much, I know, but the authentic<br>
signature may help someone believe in what you are<br>
saying about being in charge of the ship now, or whatever<br>
you decide as your approach. I can keep this in my pocket,<br>
as usual, or you can have it, if it helps at all. Or perhaps<br>
someone can borrow it to practice copying the signature.<br>
I'm sorry - I forgot<br>
I had it. If it's of no use, that's ok, too.<br>
It's still a sort of job reference for me, although it<br>
turned out to be a job I would not have accepted in the end.<br>
But - I can fake it, if you guys need me to. I will help<br>
however I can."<br>
