[Console | Video] Casting a Net

[drinkuntilidie]

[Kevas tires of camping around the outskirts of the city. Tough as a troll might be, he's a jungle troll. All this cold and drizzle eats at him. He wants no more of it. Time to find a place for him to call his own for a while. First thing's first though, he needs money.]

Not sure how to go about dis other den just sayin' it, but I be needin' money and a place to stay. Now don't go thinkin' I be wantin' handouts cause I don't. Last thing I be wantin' is to be in some mon's debt. I be wantin' to work for my stay.

[Kevas tries his best to appear professional but it feels weird going about finding work this way. In Azeroth finding mercenary work is as easy as stepping into town, here not so much.]

I be a mercenary, former soldier, and somethin' of a wanderer.

[He doesn't like using the term 'adventurer'. It sounds too heroic. Kevas knows he's no hero.]

If any mons be needin' protection, a bodyguard, or help with gang problems I be willin' to offer my services for some steady pay. If dere be other services ya be needin' den give me da details and I'll talk to ya.

[After his talk at the Welcome Center he's trying real hard to avoid the 'kill for money' part of his job. Murder might not be a big deal to him but that seems to be a big no no in this place. Last thing he wants right now is a bad reputation. Then he won't get anywhere.

Unless someone wants to pay him extremely well.]

Also, I be wantin' speak with a Pepper Pots or Bakura about some kind of uh...police force?

[The way he says it makes it clear he's not too sure what that is.]

As long as ya ain't be military, and as long as ya be offerin' a fair price, I'd like to talk with some mon about dat.

Doesn't have to be a handout if you don't want it to be. I run a shelter for the kedan in the Earth Sector, but we have plenty of free beds if you need one for a little while. You can help around the shelter in return, if you like. There's always laundry to do, or food to serve, or you can help with a few self-defense lessons, since it sounds like you might know something about that.

It's up to you, of course, but it's an option.

I be no maid and I be no butler.

[Kevas tries to keep his voice level. He wants to remain professional here, not go scaring people off. That's not going to help him find work or a place to stay.]

But I might be able to teach da mons dere a thing or two about keepin' demselves safe. Long as dey be willin' to learn anyway. Seems like dey be needin' it.

[If they have as much trouble with gangs as he's been told someone needs to teach them how to fight back. He could do that.]

[edgeoftheknife]

They wouldn't be in-depth lessons, of course--we're not looking to replace the training the dojo provides. Just some basics to keep them a little safer on the streets, yes.

You're welcome to a bed if you like, then. At least until you find more permanent work. Ask anyone in the Earth Sector for directions, they'll be able to point you toward us.

Listen mon, if anyone be wantin' to learn somethin' from me den I'll touch dem. I don't care if dey wanna go to some dojo afterwards or not.

If da rain be keepin' up like it is I ain't gonna have much choice.
