An anonymous source has told me that it is only Shal, but we can't
afford to trust anyone by this point. They both have to be knocked out
so we can counter the spell. Whoever this unknown is doesn't know I've
done the research on how to counter the spell, so if it's some sort of
trick we have an edge.]<<<<<

something else that needs looking into first before I can help you see who is
chasing DragonEyes.

I'm looking to hire a bunch of runners for a Hostile Corporate Extraction. If
you are interested and qualified please apply. It has to happen soon. The
sooner it gets down, the larger the bonus. And I will need the extractee alive
so I can learn a few things from its so-called mind. ]<<<<<

***** Private: Hermit, Diana, Jeweler, Nightingale
>>>>>[ Alright, here's the deal: I used the "it's" to try and
throw off
whoever was watching the node. The extraction target is DragonEyes, and I
would prefer him alive. Unfortunately, all I know right now is that he was in
Seattle, and someone or ones want him real bad. DragonEyes does know a lot of
tricks for disappearing so I suspect that he will be hard to find.
Incidentally, that may be the only way you will be able to catch up to
whatever is hunting him.

Tell me how much it will cost me to hire you and I'll see if I can find some
money to pay you. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Well, I should expect that you will not find much resistance at all
from
him, aside from the difficulties of pinning him down. He doesn't believe in
violence. (and he trys to avoid it if possible -- but that has been known to
fail)

He should comply when you tell him for who you work for. In addition, one of
the people you will be working with (assuming you agree) knows him personally.
I would like him alive and unharmed, which may prove to be impossible depending
on who else is chasing after him.

He is a shaman. From what I have gathered his totem is snake. I know he is an
expert at healing magics, and I assume he is pretty good at illusions.

The others that are trying to find him . . . I don't know at this point what to
do about them. I'll have to think on that one a bit. I suppose it depends on
who they are working for. As to confrontation -- well, if you agree, you will
have to work that out with your co-workers...

So -- what is your fee for this? ]<<<<<

hotheaded friend, right?

If you, uh, wanna find him... try hanging around me. He gave me some
ruby slippers - so I could call him to bring in some favors - and I
can't, well, you know, get rid of 'em. They keep popping up in my
life. I've moved something like three times this week and they
follow me.

I left 'em at my old place, burned 'em at the next place, and threw
them in the Sound before I moved here.
