Not So Simple Ends

I prepare to set out with the 67 on a mild expedition tonight, we set foot into the wilds just beyond the walls of Murray, we have a plan and I feel confident.
 
Shortly after our debriefing with Lucy about the events of the day prior, one of Rowan Steel's hands reached out to us and brought us to his den. It had been a while since I had done personal work for the master of coin, but so soon after a job for another one of the Court Masters? Seems like Rowan might be desperate to see this done, which doesn't sit right with me. The second richest man in Murray had not concerned himself with our experience or readiness, as per status quo his bottom line seems to be the his dearest concern. I think I will decide to not bring this up to Lucy, I can't help but to wonder if the other Court Masters are aware of Rowans meddling in these matters, could be useful leverage for later. As happy as I am to be on another job and get another pay out, I would prefer to resume training the 67 in a more hands on matter.
 
Speaking of the 67, their meeting with Rowan went well, however they may not be aware that beyond his outward smile and "most gracious" presentations, his coin purse and the welfare of the treasury are his greatest concern. Gwenmyla doubled down on my efforts when I opted to squeeze the second richest man in Murray for a larger payout, she seems to be adopting to the line of business well. After some questioning around the territory of the log cutters guild we seem to have a solid lead and made a plan that feels viable, even seemed like something the old crew might've pulled off in our early days. On the topic of the early days, I managed to lift myself a pretty useful score from some enchantment shop, Murray has some nice trinkets but I plan to lay low for a while longer. For now, I await nightfall.
