<blockquote>"Where did they go?"
"Couldn't say." Claude made it clear that he had more interest in a stain in the wood on the bar counter. It'd been there for as long as he could remember, and it wasn't the first time that he had pretended to clean it off. The noble officers never seemed to notice, or at least they never said anything about it.
"Archer Cross and his friends. They were here last night and they just left this morning. Where did they go?"
"Couldn't say. Only know the name from wanted posters and from your own mouth." Claude brought up the rag to his pronounced mustache and wiped the tip of the bristly black hair. "Yup, General, can't say that I've ever met a fella by that name."
General Tota wasn't a man to slam his fists or yell. His patience was well-known and by far considered one of his greatest strengths. Despite this, he had a tendency of betraying his inward anger by turning bright red in the face. It was an amusing sight to Claude- he expected the portly general to start yelling and trembling any moment now, but Tota kept a calm tone to his voice and demeanor despite the visible fury beneath his skin. "They likely gave you fake names." He held up a crude sketch of the three exiles he was looking for. "This man in the center is Archer Cross. The big savage with the glasses is his partner Barzhad Judhan. The bald chap here only recently joined their group; his name is Jack Iscariot and it is vital that he is not allowed loose in Caste. The three of them are dangerous."
The sketches were horrible renditions of the exiles that Claude knew. The three of them had horrible charcoal grimaces, while Claude had rarely seen such expressions on their usually-smiling faces. He had to admit, the artist had done a good job of making the group look menacing. Barzhad was a big man, but his belly in the picture was gone and he seemed like more like a giant. Claude had only met Jack for the first time the night before, but he remembered the blank and almost confused look that he believed to be a permanent fixture in the exile's eyes. Instead, the drawing had him staring down with a fiery rage appropriate for a criminal.
"I'm not familiar with any of these fellows," Claude said simply.
"My men chased them out o this very building early this morning."
"Your men did indeed chase some customers out of my tavern early this morning. But not these men."
Tota slid a second sketch onto the counter. A beautiful young woman drawn with a look of utter hopelessness in her eyes. "This woman is the daughter of a noble. Her name is Amelia Cheres, and she was kidnapped by the men that you claim to not know."
Claude didn't know the details of what had happened between Amelia and Archer, but he remembered a hooded female following him to his rented room the night before. He had seen her eyes when she first entered his tavern and asked if she could sit at a table without buying anything. Of course Claude had said yes--she seemed alone and fragile, but he remembered that she certainly didn't look as helpless as she was presented in the picture. In fact, she looked far more threatening in person.
"Can't say that I've seen her, either. And I would definitely remember a pretty face like that." Claude pushed the picture back aross the bar counter.
"I see that my work here is done, Mister North," General Tota said simply. He turned and strode out of the building, leaving the pictures on the counter.
When the portly soldier was out of sight, Claude absently dropped the cloth on a ledge behind him and picked up the two sketches. He looked from the first to the second, shaking his head slightly. "She was a noble, huh... I hope Archer knows what he's gotten himself into this time."
The day was young to Claude and his business, being only mid-afternoon. The tavern was empy, and a total mess after the events of the previous night and early in the morning. Those noble soldiers really didn't know how to clean up after themselves. Claude set to straightening things out before the rush.
