"Are you sure?" She asked, her eyes staring at the man in front of her.
"Yes. Completely." He croaked in return, uncomfortable under the stare. She had a way of completely unnerving him and he hated it. He called her a banshee behind her back, or worse when he dared. She scared the hell out of him when she was angry.
"If your information is wrong.." Silver threatened.
"It's not. The Watch has been strangely active around these parts, and so have they. Unfortunately for them, they didn't watch their mouthes and thought the walls had no ears. They were wrong." The words tumbled out in a rush. He just wanted a drink and to get out of this damnable heat.
Gods, it was hot, Silver silently grumbled as she ran through the information she was just given. Blackwater Shipping was after someone with information about their dealings. Why would they care, if it wasn't damning evidence, Silver wondered. There had always been rumors about Blackwater, and how their income had always seemed to be more than the business they were bringing in. Silver knew some of those in Blackwater's employ; shady figures, but apparently it was darker than she had thought.
"When?"
"I don't know. I don't know who it is. I just know they want him before the trial."
Trial" That sparked Silver's interest. If there was a trial, and the Watch was involved, that meant the Governor and a few of the Council might be as well. "I swear, you barnacle sucking waste of life, if this so much as?"
Silver didn't finish as the man held up his hands. "I swear. I swear!"
She grimaced, feeling the sweat dripping down the back of her neck and into her shirt, sliding its was down between her shoulder blades. It was too hot to be dealing with this. "Go.? She muttered, waving a hand. If this was true, she mulled, then she knew who she had to go find.
