”Jane!” Leiv grinned as he happily made his way over to Jane hugging her with a childish charm that the group both loved and hated, ”Have you been well?”
Jane nodded, ”I see you are fine after your journey”.
”Of course,” Leiv gave an impish grin.
Laura sneered, ”No thanks to the-”

Laura sighed, then turned back to Jane, ”We survived. That is all I am honour bound to disclose”.
Jane knew better than to pursue such a sensitive topic. She then turned to the silent Rizan. He gave a small, almost imperceptible smile and a nod.
”Alright, let's head to the hotel so I can catch you up on the investigation,” Jane said.
”How is it going to far?” asked Laura, skipping forward to walk alongside Jane.
Jane sighed, ”Not as well as I'd hoped”.
”The Great Spirit of the Wind and Skies is stuck?” asked Seti, ”Didn't expect that line after you've been here a fortnight ahead of us and have a friend on the Island”.
”The friend is sort of the problem,” asked Jane, ”I had all the information at my fingertips on the first afternoon…but after she mentioned that she was the only one who'd managed to come to a business agreement with Moonshadow, she clammed up about everything to do with it. I've already tried to talk her down a dozen times to no avail, and not other leads seem willing to present themselves”.
Leiv grinned over at Seti, ”Sounds fun”.
”You're not terrorising my friend, even if it is inconvenient,” Jane said, ”No, this time we'll have to solve this problem in a more…diplomatic way”.
Leiv raised a hand, ”Then I vote we send Rizan in, his poker face should be intimidating enough”.
”If we're talking about the same friend, then it's the woman who managed to con the Luthen Family out of their precious Star Pavilion. I don't think even Rizan's intimidation will be enough,” Laura concluded.
