Maya had made her way inside the busy Casino bar. Over crowded and nosiy places made her want to retch, they dragged down her soul like a scratching in the heart, it was something she detested, yet here was the place she had agreed to meet the person applying for the task of research assistant, recovering the names of the members of the Radiant heart was her top priority, her repulsion for her location would have to wait in the background, for now.
He arrived and waved to her. Maya must commend the editor or the westbridge times, he passed on the description she had left brilliantly, almost too brilliantly, maybe she'll keep an eye on the editor also. "greetings" he said to her.
"Well met, you must be the gentleman the editor mentioned, responding about the job?" she extended her thin hand to him and gave his own a firm shake. "Please join me" extending her hand outward gesturing to a nearby space at the end of the bar, Maya sits down, waiting for him to join her, when he does she continues.
"As you are likely aware, there will be some questions of course, to see your suitability for the task, Do you oppose such a notion?" Shaking his head the elven man responded "Not at all, I understand, please, ask your questions"
"We shall start with your name, and any renowned titles you may carry within any governments?"
"My name is Vladimar" he answered "I have no titles, and am affiliated with no governments, I'm my own man".
After a series of questions at which Maya listened to every answer intently, she revealed the payment to which Vladimar offered a big grin and said "Now your talking my speed, What's the job?"
Maya pondered for a moment, she had looked at the man closely, he wore nothing to indicate if his words spoke truth, and she knew nothing of the man to take him at face value, so grinning at him she smiled before saying quietly "We're getting ahead of ourselves Vladimar, the trial task first". After detailing to him what that would be, he assured her he could find the necromancer in question, he had her name after all, Xalyn De'lial.
After a few more words on how to approach her if he found the necromancer, Maya stood, inclined her head in a parting of dismissal and a shimmery space of air swallowed him up, and Vladimar dissapeared. "Good luck Tracker, The Realms will thank you" Maya threw back her head and cackled like an insane woman.
