[pnpgm] dinner under guard

[Murtha, Mark]

[OOC - Kell explains all of what he found at both companies when he has the chance. Not sure what impact it may have, and since technically that paper he has wasn't found with a warrant, it may not be admissible as evidence against anyone.  He'll keep that paper to himself for now, except the name of the moneylender Sovis Smith, another Smith.  Trying to keep things moving, and since we are moving out of Ticasi, focusing on that. ]

Kell nods to Arawn, "Of course I can help deliver the gold."

"They really want you to leave, don't they?" the trader intones with a funny look.  Some may say predatory, some may say as an angel, some may say never trust a smiling trader.   "I won't pry into the why, yet we need a plan after your release. The options I see are finding the actual killer, or getting into some, er, rather interesting scrapes so those escorts get lost and we can do whatever."

"Z'Leyra, this is up to you.  In my mind, the best option is asking your family then going to find your sister.  Or we can hang the whole thing and never return to this city." as he looks her in the eyes with a now gently but firm look of compassion.
