[Level 33 Streetwise Guardswoman!][Level 33 Streetwise Guardswoman!]
[Skill – Pursue the Quarry obtained!][Skill – Pursue the Quarry obtained!]
Zevara Sunderscale
 		When she woke up, she wasn’t dead. Zevara knew that because everything hurt. But there weren’t any sharp pains; so no broken bones.
Zevara Sunderscale
 		Nice. Even with her head aching like a football after the Little Crab’s team practice, Zevara appreciated the new Skill. Good for footchases. It was always a bit of a mystery which class would level after she did something. She had to just guess why she gained a level.
[Guardswoman]
 		They’d raided the Brothers, so why the [Guardswoman] over [Watch Captain]? Probably because the [Watch Captain] had been an idiot, taking that fight when she knew it was bad. The [Guardswoman] had fought decently well enough, hence the levels.
[Watch Captain]
 		They’d raided the Brothers, so why the [Guardswoman] over [Watch Captain]? Probably because the [Watch Captain] had been an idiot, taking that fight when she knew it was bad. The [Guardswoman] had fought decently well enough, hence the levels.

[Watch Captain]
 		But it’s the [Watch Captain] who’s very much in trouble now. This was bad. Kidnapped by a gang? There was no hiding she was awake; Zevara had moved a bit, and she knew someone was in the room from the faint sounds of paper, breathing, murmurs from above. The creak of floorboards. Cards? A basement?

Zevara Sunderscale
 		Zevara sat up slowly, opening her eyes, and someone spoke.
Liscor
 		“Before you go thinking to do something unwise, Watch Captain, just know the hat’s back on the head. There it stays until it goes off. That’s the way it works, see? Not often we need to remind folks how it goes, but Liscor—it’s new to us. Reckon we’ve both had a bad day, as it were. You’re a prisoner, by the by.”
Zevara Sunderscale
 		Her head throbbed. Zevara thought someone had punched it hard enough to knock her out. Her neck felt like it had been twisted half-off.
Ronss
 		“Oh, I think we’ll figure it out. Especially if you got Ronss too.”
Zevara Sunderscale
 		Zevara winced as she turned her head; there was a lantern glowing on a stool, and a man was sitting in a chair at a card table. Ah, tophatman.
[Non-lethal Strike]
 		“[Non-Lethal Strike]. I don’t kill unless I have to.”
Zevara Sunderscale
 		Her jaw hurt horribly. Zevara worked it, then remembered she could use her hands. She touched a gigantic bump, and the tophat man’s lips twitched.
Ronss
 		“At least one of you knows the score. Seems to me that Watch Captain Ronss is a fucking idiot.”
Relc Grasstongue
 		“He was promoted to the job last month. And given bad intelligence. He never worked in the Watch when we had to step wary of gangs. Relc and Klbkch were already a duo when he made [Guardsman].”
Klbkch
 		“He was promoted to the job last month. And given bad intelligence. He never worked in the Watch when we had to step wary of gangs. Relc and Klbkch were already a duo when he made [Guardsman].”
