Easy Money

Some people are so easy to play with that it is not fun. Such a one is my new employer, a young man by the name of Abeido. Mind, I suspect that Mayve still thinks I do not understand the value of money, eh? It is more that it is fun to test the unpracticed. Either way, two thayla for an escort mission is two thayla I have not earned by sitting on my arse in town.
 
The trip here was uneventful. Abeido did not particularly reveal much of himself - I can respect that. I am not one for talking of my home or my family. I am unlikely to see him again once I deliver him back to town, so it is not of any particular concern that I do not know what his business is. I am not judge or jury. I am... guide. Yes? That is right word.
 
I have not seen Swift for some days. I hope she is well. I miss her company when she is not with me.
 
Salindra's Hope appears to be still thriving: prospectors doing their thing, whatever that thing is. But there is deep feeling of uncertainty. Abeido seems convinced that people are watching him. I do not know why he has this paranoia.
 
It is not my business. Bringing him home alive and well is my business. The mask is set, the deal is made.
 
I will do what I must.
