The divine were curious beings. Just a brush with them could turn the cautious foolhardy and the lethargic hasty. So it was with Ignotus Everto, a Nuit given a most curious task from a most curious God. Find Anar DuFarro, and take his box. Ignotus was certain he would be able to steal the man's little trinket if he could only find him. It was the finding that was the difficult part.
Sunberth was a large city, and it had no public records, or any sort of order to speak of. A man could live in Sunberth all his life, and never have the slightest trace about him in writing. So he needed to enlist some local color. He needed, in short, to find someone he could confide in, who knew the wretched hive and its denizens like the back of his hand.
A straightforward problem with a straightforward solution. Finding Wrenmae wasn't too difficult. Human beings had certain needs, and alcohol was one of them. Finding a quiet corner, in this case a small, worn wooden bench covered in splinters and lit by a half-melted candle, wasn't much trickier. Trying to explain what he needed, that was harder. Still shaken from nearly being murdered by a God, Ignotus decided to go with the blunt truth.
"I need you to help me find a man who may or may not be in this city for Sagallius."
