mission

The entire city was practically thrumming with life and energy as numerous witches began roaming the streets, searching every nook and cranny for the missing pages of the now famous Fable book that Portia Vanruschild lost by accident. Once he heard how much the owner was willing to pay for its recovery, and the fact that they made a request to all of the covens, his eyes lit up greedily and he immediately signed up to help. It was just pages from a book for a lot of cash. Easy peasy.

He wanted to collect it all himself, get the full reward for it, but that was not likely to happen. Short of inciting the anger of so many others who were doing the same mission, he was better off playing by the rules for this one. Or at least when he couldn't get away with it.

One of the pages that went missing, the one assigned to him, was reported to be somewhere in the hovel. There were probably more, but as long as they found one then it counted as success on their part. If they got more than that, then that was even luckier.

With him was a white haired man, with a black blindfold around his eyes. So far the two of them hadn't gotten a chance to really talk yet, after getting their mission and heading out.

Now that they were in the hovel, he slowed down and glanced at the other man. "Hey, before we start, how about a bit of introduction?" Grinning, he held out his hand to the other. "Anthony Skies. Tony for short." A second after, he realized that the other probably wouldn't see his hand and slowly retracted it.
