One was a Foreman, the other a 1st Arms Manager. Two and three ranks below Specialist. But neither of them have encountered Law before.

"We shall see, but I can't speculate on who would be picked for such a post."

[deathsdoctor]

He can't place them. But a Foreman and a 1st Arms Manager. That would put them squarely middle of the MSF pecking order. Hmmmmm. It seems perhaps news has gotten quite far down the food chain. So it's likely big. Or something scandalous. Or both.

"I guess we will." It promised to be interesting, like the response to what he says next will be, "While we're chatting, is there anything you would like to know, Mister Bil?"

[biliruben]

Bil seemed to consider this. He knew a lot of things, after all. But on the subject of Luceti, he was aware of most things that went on.

"That's a tricky question, Mr. Law. It suggests you might know something I don't and are more interested in that absence of knowledge than actually giving it."

[deathsdoctor]

But you've already given him what he's wanted, Bil...

"Well, here's the thing and I'll be blunt - I might. I might not. Depends on what you might be interested in, if anything. Will it possibly be informative for me? Sure. I believe we touched on my ignorance to your reach of influence... can't say I have a good idea to how far your knowledge stretches to things as well."

That is the truth of it.

"So the floor's open if you want it. It's fair - we poke questions at you every time we meet."

[biliruben]

Bil leaned forward, resting his hands on the table in front of him.

"What do you know about Rataneran Keep?"

[deathsdoctor]

Law gives a pointed look at the guards, and then picks up his clipboard and begins to write.

"Count Zompano had many enemies. Some more obvious than others... but understandably not a very popular fellow with a lot of the Organization. At least that's how I know it. Before he went missing, he leaked a number of secrets about key Organisation personnel and the General into the enclosure with secrets about the inhabitants. The Commandant, CJ, Specialist Davis, that blonde you speak with, John, someone named Jacob, and yourself. Some of it was obviously lies... some of it... well. Who knows."

The pen pauses.

"I imagine you are aware of who was at the Keep then." Or are you, he wonders. On one hand, why ask if he had no idea of Luceti's presence in the first place. On the other, well, that was a good way to tease out information if he had no clue and only a suspicion.

It is a good place to pause, regardless.
