"I can get one done now and the second later in that case."

Permalink

"Which one, I've put out-of-order signs on them and should update accordingly."

Permalink

"Thr last one on the left I can do now, the one that was painted yellow I can do later."

Permalink

"Great, thanks."

And out she goes again.

Permalink

The water works as promised and the complaints about the spigots stop. Instead, someone wants to know if they can set up a circus tent and another person wants to know where they can put up a reward poster for information about a missing child whose description matches Eefa.

Permalink

She collects Eefa from the glass place first, if necessary trailing all these querents on the way there. Depending on how much space they need for the circus tent they can put it either in this spot or on the outskirts of town or talk to the guy with the big paddock about whether his critters can tolerate being cooped up for however long the circus is in town. Does the poster have a name for the child, what they'd answer to?

Permalink

It has "Eefa" in the description, below an artist's rendering of her face.

Permalink

......

"Wait right here, I'll go ask," she tells the reward poster guy, and then she goes to the glassworks.

Permalink

Eefa is hiding under the same table as when Pelape left.

Permalink

"Kiddo, there's a guy looking for you. How close do you need to get to know if he's a wolf?"

Permalink

"Close enough to see him?"

Permalink

She scoops Eefa up and takes her around behind the glassworks to see the guy from thataway.

Permalink

 

"Not a wolf."

Permalink

"Okay. Do you recognize him?"

Permalink

"No."

Permalink

"Okay. I'm going to try to find out more about why he's looking for you. Be hidey, he might want the reward even if he's not a wolf."

Permalink

Nod.

Permalink

Once Eefa's squared away Pelape goes up to the guy.

"So who wants this kid to the tune of -" How much does the poster say.

Permalink

Ten thousand Kenton dollars for pertinent information and two hundred thousand Kenton dollars for Eefa, five times more than Pelape makes in a year.

Permalink

"...a small fortune even just for a rumor, what's up with that?"

Permalink

"My employer is one Dr. Salazar Wendigo and he intends to visit this fine town soon enough in person, So if you do have any pertinent information, I suggest seizing the opportunity to provide it before he's discovered it himself."

Permalink

"Is he her father?"

Permalink

The man chuckles.

"No miss, just an interested observer of the curious and overlooked."

Permalink

"A very rich one! How's he come by such a lot of money? In apparently our own currency even."

Permalink

"The Kenton dollar has spread beyond this fine demense, and many of Dr. Salazar Wendigo's esteemed customers have used it to purchase some trifles of his design."
