The Tavern was strangely empty at this time of night, no one was behind the bar taking orders and tossing comments back and forth with rowdy patrons. The tables, which usually had small groups around them were all empty and not filled with the usual banter and whisperings of secrets and rumors from patron to patron. No, instead it was replaced with one small candle which lit up the immediate surroundings of an old, wooden table. There was two tea cups, one on each side of the table and a small scroll which was at a neutral end of the table. Kailisto's crimson pupils and pearl white Cheshire like grin looked across the table to a figure clothed in a long white robe.
“We have gotten many new recruits over the past few days, and I have extreme confidence we'll get even more in the coming weeks. What with the flood of strange and unexplained things happening all over the world.†She said then took a sip of her tea.
“Yes, it seems the empire is good for business no? Providing numerous stories and myths, all for you to investigate no doubt.†the figure said. Its soft feminine voice was dark, almost foreboding even.
Kailisto nodded once and took another sip of her tea then put the cup down.
“We'll find the scroll, that you have my word of, we just need more recruits. We have almost two dozen now, all with me for their own reasons, some for the adventure, others for fame, some, like me with a thirst for knowledge and even some whose reasons and motivations are not clear to me. One thing that is clear, we are all on the same page. To explore the unexplained, to help those who need an explanation of something happening.†She said, her grin spreading wider.
“Indeed. That is why I am glad to have you working with me, Kailisto. We'll find those scrolls together. For now though continue your recruiting, i'll send you more funds to support several major excursions and hunts.†the figure said and stood up. It walked back into the shadows and simply faded away.
Kailisto let out a sigh and drummed her fingers on the table. Her “silent partner†was right, they needed more people, more bodies.
“Very well, time to spread the rumors of my Tavern to Limsa Lominsa and U'ldah.†She said with a grin.
“I am sure they have birds of prey in both cities.. if not, they'll have some soon enough.†She said as she continued to sip her tea with a smile.
