He snorts.
āSure.ā
He stands up and looks at you.
āWeāre looking into Baron Dalin, trying to figure out the ādark secretā heās supposedly hiding. Weāre headed to Hazel Ford first to get some insight into a hunch I have regarding the south.ā
He gives a slight smile before switching his tone to a more serious one.
āYou can do more than speak multiple languages. I wonāt pry further, but I imagine that we will encounter situations that will call for the use of thoseā¦abilities.ā

āWell, that kind of investigation does seem like my specialty.ā Paprika pretended she didnāt hear that last comment, though she evidently twitched a bit. Sore subject, it seems.
(Uhh knowledge (local) check to see if she can flex anything re: Dalin?)

Baron Dalin rules the lands to the east of here. Most people in Talloak donāt care especially much about some baron who isnāt even their baron and hasnāt (so far as they know) particularly caused problems for them , but youāve heard some gossip from passing travelers from his own lands ā about a year and a half ago (i.e., in 4702), he was supposed to be presiding over a Harvest Feast celebration in his own barony, but he scandalously abandoned the festivities partway through with no explanation, and then refused to even make an appearance to apologize.

(This was a few short months after his fatherās death, and the gossiping travelers absolutely did not hesitate to speculate about this, whether that meant complaining about how his father would never have done anything like this, or criticizing his father for having kept such a tight hold on him that he never learned proper decorum, or speculating that maybe he had been driven to such lengths by grief.)
āOf course, I havenāt had any particular reason to dig up that guyāsā ā she refers to a baron as āthat guyā ā ādirt to date, but thereās obviously been something suspicious going on since he took his fatherās position. You hear of it even outside his territory. He lacks decorumā ā sheās quoting somebody exactly ā āand vanishes from celebrations.ā
Paprika readjusts her grip on her rolls of fabric. They look rather expensive to be holding above the dirt like this.
āAllow me to set these down at my home. I shall meet you at the tavern afterward.ā
She rotates 180^{\circ} on her heels and leaves.
āOf course.ā
Is this how I sound to people?
