Thanks for the tip, %PCName.

Stop wasting my time.

What? That little fetcher. I knew he wasn't "losing" all the skooma. Thanks for tipping me off, %PCName. I'll have him expelled immediately.

What's this about contraband?

Go on, do what you're going to do. And get going before anyone suspects anything.

Your lot's obviously trying to cheat me. Well, you can forget about our arrangement. Now get out of here.

Well, then you're not getting any contraband. Period. If this is how you're all going to be, then our arrangement is off. Get out of here.

Pleasure doing business.

Bah. Typical. I'm unlocking the door, but I'm not pleased about this.

Now, now. Let's be reasonable. I'm unlocking the door, just don't do anything rash.

Hold on, you don't have to do that. Just give me the gold, and you can take what you're owed.

Oh, please. You're going to kill me, right in front of everyone else on the ship? I doubt it.

You're bluffing. If you do that, your boss won't get any goods, and that's on your head.

Don't give me that. Your lot and I have a deal. I'm risking my neck doing this, you know.

Sure thing, officer. 1000 gold and I'll open up the door for you. We've got three bottles of skooma, and six portions of moon sugar.

Sure thing, officer. 1000 gold and I'll open up the door for you. And since you don't have the money, I'll be here when you do.

Good going, %PCName. You did the right thing.

Good going, %PCName. You did the right thing. Here, let me teach you a little trick I learned from my homeland. I think you'd be interested.

Good going, %PCName. You did the right thing. Talk with me after you've reported to Vycius, I'll have something for you.

I suppose you'll fit right in here, %PCName.

Oh, come on now. If you think this is above-board, why don't you tell the Captain that one of his Oarsmen is sliding contraband under the table to the local Legion Garrison? I'm sure he'd have choice words to say.

I'm going to let you in on something people outside the Garrison don't really know. The soldiers around here have this skooma racket, see -- they're the law, so it's very easy for them to get skooma into the city. Then, they sell it to local dealers, and line their pockets with the gold. It's a disgrace, frankly, and if you can throw a wrench in it I'd be grateful.

I'm sure it's as obvious to you as it is to me that this deal Vycius has with the Oarsman is totally illegal. See if you can't rat him out to the captain Garius Rulo on the ship. If you do that, the whole deal will be spoiled, and Vycius can't get his skooma.

You've been dismissed from the Imperial Legion for behavior unbecoming a Legionnaire, but maybe you can join the Imperial Legion again.

Let's not worry about that.

You've already sorted it.

Oh, is that right? Suppose that's that. Get me my money, and we'll move on.

Oh, is that right? Suppose that's that. I'll be taking my money back, then. Can't pay you for this, of course. I've got more orders for you, when you're ready.

Then quit wasting time. Go get it.

Very nice work, %PCRank. Here's a little something for you. I'm assuming you managed to get him to take 500. If you didn't, then that's your problem. But either way, then talk to me when you're ready for further orders.

You got the contraband?

You got the contraband?

You got the contraband?

If you haven't got the contraband, then we don't need to be speaking. Get to it.

Oarsman Alius Flagius is supposed to yield some of the contraband the Saber of the Straits has consfiscated. This time we're due three bottles of skooma, and six samples of moon sugar. Take these drakes, and talk to him. Usually, we pay him 1000 gold for the contraband, but I'd like you to negotiate a bit. See if you can't get him down to 500. I'll make it worth your while. Now get going.
