The man shows me into his tent, and sits me down at a table.
"I trust no one knows... What you are?"
I shake my head, my eyes focused on the ground.
"Good, good. So, you come to me because you have found what we are looking for?"
I shake my head this time, and close my eyes slightly.
I receive a blow on the side of my face.
"Then why do you risk your cover, and mine, by coming here?!" The man's face was twisted with fury.
I look up, my eyes dark, "I think one of the others has it."
The man calms down slightly.
"Hrmf. Take this with you, just in case." The man brought out a small, beautifully carved dagger. The blade was painted a dark shade of blue, so that it did not reflect light. "Just in case one of your 'companions' gets too close to finding what we are looking for. Now, get out of my sight."
