Back in Thanalan. Did a little work out of Black Brush today. Issues with the local Qirin. Lucky me, I happen to take the same job as Red Boar.
Look, if you do this kind of work in Thanalan, hiring your blade out and the like, and you haven't met Red Boar? Gods you're lucky. I never would have thought someone so large could be such a pest. He's loud, and brazen, and just... ugh! I mean, sure, when you're a gladiator that's probably a good thing. Make some noise, get the crowds attention. Out here it's just irritating.
I try to sneak, and he's suddenly running past me and bashing things with his shield. I swear I saw him throw it at something at one point. Is that a thing you're even supposed to do with a shield? Throw it? Seems to defeat the purpose of having one. Makes it a lot harder to work, too, when some fool is just smashing up a camp you're trying to pick off slowly.
I managed to give him the slip after getting back into town. Once he spotted me it was like he thought we were old buddies. I think he forgets me, half the time. Tripped me up once as I was, ah... exercising. Let's go with that. I mean, why would I be running from anyone, right? After I ducked away, he just moved right along to annoying some other poor soul. I think I'll keep my head down a while longer. Until he's left. Just to be safe. I miss the quiet already.
