"I don't believe that I have, may I?"

I slowly hand him the bowl of cherries, keeping my gaze locked on his eyes the whole time. "Please."

I heighten my senses and slowly bite into a cherry.

"Well, how is it? How is my Elunian cherry?"

I stay silent for a long time savoring the first bite. "It's wonderful!" I take another slow bite and savor it.

I walk arm in arm with Kestal, chatting about this and that, and then I stop and look at him. "But did you come to the Revue for any special reason?"

I am enjoying the chatter immensely and hate to deal with business but it is why I came. "Yes, actually. I'm in a bit of a bind with a particular spirit. The poor man was tragically murdered many years ago and I think the only way to release him is to verify that the men who killed him are in torment in the Howling but I'm at a loss as to how to do that. I need a piece of them or something that belonged to them but it happened so long ago. I don't know your world very well but was wondering if you or someone like you could help. The poor man really needs release." '

"How would I know where to find remains?"

I laugh. "Just taking shots in the dark dear Caoimhghin. Do you think a Spirit Mage would be able to help me?"

"Maybe, but we lost ours. That's Qadir now, and I don't know any others." I think a moment. "You say this is an old ghost? But your Order knows nothing about it?"

"The librarian of the order is the one who told me about him. I get the feeling that others in my order aren't too concerned about these wraiths but I find myself curiously drawn to them and their cares. This poor fellow, Petrovius, is in torment. Perhaps I'll speak with Qadir." I grab another cherry and savor it.

I shrug. "Surely your brother haruspices care!" Maybe they don't, though.

As the pair of you chat, Fiach comes running up.
"Dominus!" he says. "There is a group of people outside. They're asking for you, and they're being really loud and upset about it. I think they said they were 'Ducks' or something? I'm afraid they'll make quite a scene..."
