It does not appear so. However nervous he was, he was being honest.

The man nodded. "He will be coming for me, I know it!"

Cayn considered it.
"I think that can be arranged. But I have a few more questions first."
"First, what did he look like? And second, did you hear of anything happening down Maiden Walk that night?"

The man nodded. "I... well, I couldn't see his face... just the outline, and his eyes. They stood out somehow. He wasn't big but..." He shivered. "He had a presence."

"Did you see the colour of his eyes or hair?"

"They were blue... icey blue," He replied with cold certainty. "And yes... a child was killed on Maiden Walk that night. In the very house he came out of."

"So all you can tell me is that his eyes are blue, and he came out of a place where the city watch already knew he had been."
"Anything else of worth?" he asked, looking ready to go.

The man shook his head. "You can catch him! If you watch me! He'll be coming to get me!"

Cayn nodded. In truth, that was the tact he had settled on, but hadn't expected the man to be such willing bait.
"Where do you live?"

"Just opposite the Bleeding Cow," The man replied. "I am Casso, by the way."

"Fine. Go home Casso, I will follow you at a distance. Leave a window or door at the back of your home open. Do you have a weapon?"

"Only a knife, pretty old and rusted too," Casso said, setting down his mug and rising. "But it should do."

Cayn nodded. "Go then, keep your knife on you and find somewhere to hide in your house. If you hear someone make a barn owl noise in your home you'll know it's me."

Casso nodded and headed out of the tavern and to his house.
