LIAM: Are they part of a larger organization, or
are they off themselves? It’s just them?
ASHLY: They work for someone, a family in Shady
Creek Run. They’re powerful.
MARISHA: They’re mobsters!
Weird question: have I heard about this
group, considering my background?
MATT: Make a history check.
MARISHA: History. My history changed here
recently. That’s my second natural one in a row.
I’m going to get rid of this one. Where’s Laura
with her dice jail when you need it? That’s an 18
that I just rolled now.
MATT: You have not heard of the Iron Shepherds
before. You have some base knowledge of some
families that might do business in the outside,
but the information you’ve been given so far, the
Iron Shepherds don’t ring a bell.
MARISHA: Okay.
SAM: You know, when we were in Zadash, we heard
the town crier talking about kidnappings in
Nogvurot. That’s close to Shadycreek Run. Could
that be the same people, do you think?
ASHLY: I mean, possibly. There’s a lot of folks
doing the same kind of work. These folk happen to
be the best at it.
MARISHA: Do you know all of the members of this
Iron Brigade– what’s it called?
ASHLY: Close enough.
MARISHA: Iron Shepherds.
SAM: Iron Chef.
MARISHA: Iron Shep.
ASHLY: That’s my favorite travelling cuisine
entertainment.
LIAM: I prefer Iron Fem Shepard.
MARISHA: For sure.
(laughter)
ASHLY: This is my favorite D&D game on the
Citadel.
MATT: There it was. I was waiting for it. If
someone else wasn’t going to get there, I was
going to do it. So thank you for taking it.
MARISHA: One of them wouldn’t happen to be named
Ophelia Mardun, were they? No? Okay. That’s the
woman we have to find for The Gentleman. That’s
part of the reason we’re going.
TALIESIN: I try not to learn their names. I don’t
want to get attached.
ASHLY: No.
MATT: There is an aspect of that name that does
ring a bell: the last name.
ASHLY: Oh shit, say that again?
MARISHA: Mardun.
SAM: Here, let me pour you some more booze.
ASHLY: Thank you.
SAM: Does that help?
ASHLY: Yes, I suddenly remember that name. I know
the family. They’ve got connections there. In
fact, the folks that the Iron Shepherds work for
happen to hate that family.
