Random's in the bar...
...again.

After a lot of tea, he's looking a little more awake. He's still reading 'The Kraken Wakes' which is odd, as it's quite short.

Come say hello.

*Gorlim shows up looking like he's going somewhere.* Hullo, Random.

"Hey. I thought you were off questing?"

I was. Am. Had to gather more stuff. That place is creepy. Hurts to look at, you know. *His eyes are shadowed, as if just looking into the portal had an effect similar to not sleeping for a week. Not that he sleeps generally. Bad dreams, you know.*

"Oh? What's 'that place'? I don't know more than what Andres told me, which was something about a tail..."

A tail? I don't know about that. It's the Nameless City. It's..... Wrong. *Clearly with a capital W.* We're going there.

How are you, Random? *He;s grasping at straws just a little bit. The place terrifies him -- it's the kind of place you go to expecting not to come back whole, if you come back at all.*

He nods, quickly.

"I'm doing better. Q seems to have lost interest in tormenting the patrons, which is refreshing."

That's good. Andres will get back to normal then, hopefully. *He sounds a little distracted. The Nameless City will do that to you.* Better than what?

"Better than before. Bad things were happening in my family. They seem to have stopped."

Famous last words.

*Famous last words indeed.* Ah. Good thing, then. Nothing too permanent, I hope?

"Well, the more permanent the better in this situation. But sadly not, no."

That is unfortunate. *He perches on a chair and puts his Stuff down for a moment* Have you seen Andres around?

He nods.

"I have. Earlier this afternoon. But not since then, I'm afraid."

Just as well. I don't think I care to have him find me before I'm gone. *winces at the thought of the Castillan trying to force him to stay put*

"I don't know about that, but I do know I'm late."
