>>>>>[Good to hear you are well.

It's like this. I have been hired to locate someone, but there is another
person looking for them as well. What I need is someone to set up some
false trails, preferably leading out of Seattle, for this other person to
follow. Hopefully this will give me time to find the one I am looking for
and get them where they need to be.

I feel I should warn you that the guy I need decoyed is probably pretty
dangerous. Any way, let me know if you are interested, or if you know of
anyone who would be willing to take this one on.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Ok chummer, I appreciate the help.

The guy I need distracted goes by the name Rhodaemis. From what I
understand he is some sort of genius from down in the Tir. I am not sure
what his exact abilities are, but it would probably be best not to find out
first hand. He is in town looking for Wintergeist and Luthien. Rhodaemis
was a teacher of theirs and believes they are traitors, and wants them, dead
probably. He was looking for runners to help him find, so I would assume
that he has other runners working for him by now.

Wintergeist has hired me to track down his sister. She has apparently gone
of the edge in some way or other, and Wintergeist is bound and determined to
save her. I have given my word to try and find her. I need you to lay
some false trails leading out of town. The farther you can lead him away,
the better. One thing I don't need is this guy breathing down my neck,
while I am finding Luthien.

Here is some cred to get you going. There is more if you need it.

Let me know if you need more.

Be careful chummer. From everything I have heard, this guy could be very
dangerous.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Hey chummer, I just had a thought. By now I am sure that Rhodaemis
might know that I am looking for Luthien as well. I am afraid that I was
somewhat indescreet in some of my inquiries. I consider it fairly likely
that my questions have been reported to him. But I think this can work in
my favor.

When you get your false trail in place, let me know in a way that the
information leaks out. I will make a big deal of looking for help to go get
Luthien. Hopefully this will be effective in pulling Rhodaemis and any
hounds he has off the trail.

Also, if you could put any contacts you trust into finding Luthien, I can
pay well.]<<<<<
