Killion dismounted and tied his horse up, seeking out the village elder or any merchants that may have news of their quarry.

He sees plenty of merchants and the village constable is in the jail. He is welcome to talk to any of them. The constable is a short thick man in his mid forties who Lethonhad heard of in his travels. He is the subject of a lot of tall tales much like Bat Mastersin or Wild Bill.

Letho couldn't resist a word with a living legend. Proper constables had more scruples than him by nature, but he could respect those who were good at what they did. Thus started this week's thrilling episode of "Have Sword-Will Travel".
"Looking for a mark named Grenn." he said, cutting to the heard of the matter in his gravelly tone. "Heard he's been spotted in these parts."

"Red Beard" Roland nodded. "The kid diddler. Been around here, avoids the area I patrol, but I ain't as mobile as I once was," he admitted. "Him and that band o'his been preying from here to Barrowtown like wolves that fuck the sheep."

"How many do they number?." he inquired, with the ghost of a smile. "That is why hunters exist, to kill wolves."

"Yes," he agreed. "I'd say forty or so. Give or take a dozen. They split up and reform all the time though."

"Best to get them piecemeal then, when the pack is separated." he remarked, considering the matter. "Seems a group of marauders that big would have been dealt with by some lord or other by now."

Leland waits outside next to Mina, purposefully standing close to her to make her uncomfortable. Doublely so since given their location he had been unable to change the garland of flowers around his neck to even somewhat hide his repugnant odor.

Even in the cold there seemed to be flies buzzing around him. Mina stepped to the side, giving him a frown. "Would it kill you to bathe just once....", she asked, the man was basically making her stomach turn. "I only ask because those... flowers are not helping, at all."
"and my nose is about to crawl back into my face..." She rolled her eyes and turned her head in another direction, praying the wind did not change pushing his stench her way.

"I bathe every other day I'll have you know." He says sounding hurt. "And the flowers certainly do help, you just aren't refined enough to notice the difference." He says pointedly.

Mina laughed out loud,"You bather every other day, my ass!!!"
"Is that real water or waste water from the shyte houses?"

"Lot of war and lawlessness,@ he said. "And Lord Stark can't be everywhere at once. When he sits at Winterfell no bandit dares plague the North, but if the wolf is away the jackals can prey."

"That river we passed a couple days ago. Whatever water that would be." He answers, "you spend your life crawling through the waste of the biggest city in the land and using it as your biggest weapon against everyone. And try not to take on its characteristics." He states with a wink. "My poisons can take anywhere from a couple days to run them dry, or years of wearing their body down to nothingness."

"I an not so course, that I can not admire your gift of", she took in a breath,"of making poisons but your... but do you have to carry that repugnant odor everywhere?" "Gods man, your horse's sense of smell must be non existent by now."
