Dragoncrest Cliffs friendly, but not your friend.

he thinks he's in the clear
the cogs are turning
the boy is thinking
he squints and draws a new challenge.
cayetano takes a beat
he assesses the boy
he assesses himself.

finally with a sigh, he says
you two have something i want
a deal is a deal, right?
i do something for you,
you do something for me.
everything's transactional.

it just so happens,
you have a pack.
and being in that
is worth ten seals, easy.
