Suddenly Markas hears some sparrow whistling around him and stops in front of him looking expectantly.
"Huh..... that's odd..."
The sparrow opens it's beak, and a sound Markas hasn't heard for a very long time. The sound of Mystigon says " Emergency, We need to talk. Baine asked me to tell you. Meet at the Shank tonight. Baine looks annoyed for not knowing where you are. "
The sparrow chirps and jumps a few times before fluttering away.
"..... huh....."
"Guess it's time to get told off again"
Markas waits till early evening when he sees the unmistakable figure of Mystigon entering the shank, but the difference is, he somehow is missing a hand his old tattoo is nothing but scars and his left eye is gone. Markas waves him over.
Mystigon nods, goes to the bar and asks for something. Gedd hands him a bottle while Mystigon leaves a few coins on the bar and picks two glasses.
"Long time no see" says Mystigon.
Markas answers "It has been.... where have you been?"
"I don't think I've seen you since we went to Za'Suul?"
Mystigon chuckles a bit nervously and scratches the scars around his missing left eye" Been around and learning new things. Funny you should mention Za' Suul!"
"Have you heard about the attack on the new church?"
Markas gives a concerned look
"No? I've been keeping to myself lately.... was it bad? What happened?"
"Nothing I know of yet, other than a Bone Devil was summoned and was looking for You, Me, Baine and Bogg"
He picks up the bottle and poured down two generous amounts.
Markas' face remains blank as he stares at Mystigon for a moment, watching him pour the drinks
"Looking for the 4 of us?.... and something to do with Za'Suul....."
He sits in thought for a few more seconds as he takes the drink but just before he starts to drink
"Wait! You dont think that it's to do with that.... that.... oh what was his name?"
He snaps his fingers in frustration.
"He had a patch and a desk.... asked us to look in that house...."
" The seagull fucker" Mystigon chimes.
"Yes!"
"Ah what was it....."
"Wait.... is Baine and Bogg ok!?"
"Giorgo something.. Baine is fine just seen him this morning, he didn't look that worried about Bogg so I will take that as them being fine. "
He sighs with relief.
"But wait, what happened? You said it's funny I mentioned Za'Suul... how does that have anything to do with a... bone Devil? And a church?"
"Apparently, It happened in the church that is tied with two religious groups one from Za' Suul and one following some sea goddess. One and one equal...."
"But that doesn't mean it's from... Giorgio?"
" True but can't think of anyone else for now. Tomorrow I am going to start doing my own investigating and see what I find out. "
Markas thinks on it for a moment
"well.... I guess that's true. Do you know anything else about what happened with this devil? If it was looking for the four of us, it could easily come for any of us....."
"Igrainne if you know her said that her and some capable people dealt with it "
"I've met Igrainne...." He takes a sip of the drink, his face screwing up as it normally does before putting it back on the table.
"If Baine and the others are ok, that's the important thing for now. We don't know for sure why it was looking for the four of us.... Where are you staying now? Baine has moved to Daring but I'm not sure where Bogg is lately...."
"I am staying at my house on the edge of town as always. Yes as long as they're fine it's good. "
"Ah ok, I didn't realise you had a house!"
He stands and downs the rest of his drink, wincing as it goes down. "argh!... ok. I don't suppose there is much we can do now. Let me know if you find anything out... I'm up at the Flourished Hook now since there was some.... trouble a few weeks ago. I may go see Baine soon, see if he knows anything more..... It was good to see you Mystigon!"
He extends his hand to shake Mystigon's
Mystigon swigs the rest of his drink with no wincing whatsoever and extends his right arm the one missing a hand but suddenly almost if it grows out ferns grow out that wrap up into fingers and take the shape of a hand " Will contact you guys in a few days time "
"that's.... interesting.... what happened to your old hand anyway?"
He smiles but the missing eye and scars makes it a bit hard to look at "Same as my eye but that's a story for another day"
Markas smirks, "another day then. I look forward to hearing from you"
With that, he sweeps out of the shank.
"Huh..... that's odd..."
