Decado and T'Nau, leant against the bar. They were in Melfice's place. A mutual friend. He had known Decado for years, and met T'Nau at a tournament a few hundred years before. They sipped their drinks. Bloodwyne, vintage 1666. A tall, dark-cloaked figure entered the bar, and walked upto the pair. He was human, around thirty, and carried a sword on his hip. He wore a blackened set of breastplate beneath his cloak. Decado raised an eyebrwo and looke to T'Nau. T'Nau gave an almost impercitible shake of his head. The man began to speak.1
"I have a job that needs doing. I was told to come to you."2
Decado smiles slightly, and finished his bloodwyne.3
"Who told you? Whats the job? And how much does it pay?" He enquired.4
"Thats a lot of questions," replied the dark-cloaked figure, "But I will answer them. The head of the Magerium, here in Haven want a powerful artifact, renowned for its abilities to raise people from the dead, recovering from a temple, far to the east. It will take a lot to retrieve it, as the temple is guarded by hordes of undead. The pay is standard. Selling value of the object, plus twenty percent, and you can keep any loot you find."5
"Really? And who, pray tell, sent you?" Asked T'Nau.6
"I told you, the head of the Magerium."7
Decado shook his head, and pulled a dagger from his jacket. He advanced toward the figure and thrust the knife at him. At the last minute he swayed his arm, glancing the blow off the man's breastplate.8
"Then tell me, why does a mage wear armour?"9
"Very perceptive, but I am not a mage. I am the head of the 'acquisitions' department. I will accompany you, and aid you in getting the artifact."10
T'Nau smiled slightly, and interrupted the two, eyeing each other for weaknesses. The head of the acquisitions department was obviously a trained warrior.11
"Fine, we'll do it. But we'll need to get our team together. Come back at dawn, and we'll fill you in." Said T'Nau.12
"Fill me in?!" Asked the warrior incredulously.13
"Yeah, and if you have a problem with that, fuck off back to the Magerium!" Said Decado coldly, in an almost whisper.14
The warrior turned and stalked out of the bar.15
"He'll be back." Declared T'Nau cheerfully. He turned to look at Decado, but his face was as black as thunder. He wasn't happy about this job, but he'd do it for the money.16
"We'll need Loki, he's a good healer."17
"And possibly Orokka." Added T'Nau. Decado shook his head, but there was no force in it, he would have to put up with the halflings incessant chattering if he wanted to get the job done.18
"Fine, but if we're taking Orokka, we're taking Jharek, he knows his way around temples." With that, Decado stormed out of the bar, ending the conversation abruptly. T'Nau went upstairs and began packing his gear for the coming adventure.19

Ok slight oversight on my part i get it now tho keep going with it!!

haha, fair enough, but breastplate is just the front piece. A set includes the back-piece, leather skirt, greaves amd shin-guards. All of which had the metal bits blackened. but nvm, the story is good, technicalities make it slightly crappy.
-
ok ok so it doesnt shine but.. wy is it a set of breast plate should it not be just and he wore a blackend breastplate?
Rae
PS sorry if im not reading it right -
The breastplate has been painted black so the shine doesn't give away the position. And i'm a terrible one for ! after whispers, but cheers for correcting, keep reading and enjoy, Melfice

Its good a few errors tho, 1st is "He wore a blackened set of breastplate beneath his cloak" makes no sense lol
the 2nd is thay you wrote a wisper as a shout again lol"Yeah, and if you have a problem with that, fuck off back to the Magerium!" Said Decado coldly, in an almost whisper." just chop the ! and put in ... or make him say it in a different way such as spitefully
other than that another great chapter well done
