[ In due time, with allowance for travel and settling in, Derrica's voice comes over their crystals to query— ]

How is it going?

It doesn't seem as if anyone's pinpointed my accent yet.

[He wore his most symmetrical articles of clothing for this excursion!]

I don't suppose either of you know what a Promiser is meant to be? I've been trying to parse it while helping with library here, but—

[But as it turns out, a Tevene clergyman, a Rifter, and an Orlesian militiaman are somewhat lacking in certain regional expertise.]

Shit. Whatever it is doesn't sound great, honestly.

Is that the exact word? Promiser?

Promiser, that's right. I found it on some private correspondence.

[How did he get a look at this "private correspondence"? Don't worry about it.]

It seemed to be a role or title of some kind, but I didn't get the chance to read the full page.

[ This is Adra, not worried about it. ]

I wonder if someone else would know.

We could try dropping it in conversation at the public house. See if anyone reacts or knows anything.

[A small, thoughtful noise.]

It could be a gang, but the tenor of the papers and the fact that everyone here seems to find them an embarrassment suggests some awkwardness that I don't think bandits would really motivate.

Remind me— how did Brother Gideon conduct himself while in the Gallows, do you know? Any particular oddities about the nature of his attack?

[Dickerson is tucked away like a note folded in half and place into a pocket. In the meantime—]

"Bigger"?

I suppose if he'd been obvious with his motives that we wouldn't be here.

[Ah well, says Laurentius' short little exhale.]

We'll keep digging. Though if you find anything in the library—

[She knows who to pass the note to.]

He was gone, for a year or so, between being here and coming to us.

So we have to figure out where he was, in that year.
