72nd day of Summer, 513 AV
Miro had come to learn of a place where one could find some decent work. "The Spot", he had heard it called. Vague enough, in title at least. His directions were just as vague though. Apparently something like that was not definite enough for one to be sure. Not that one needed directions, for the Ravosalamen were quite talented in delivering one any which way with certainty. And for such an excellent service, the wizard was always willing to give a decent tip. As told, he indeed recognized it on sight, for the location was a boat. Odd structure to an odd name. He was not quite sure why it was named so, for the spot where it was located varied so. All of that aside, he came upon this place with reason held in mind. Ravok was a curious city, and one needing deciphering. Understanding what work needed to be done in the city meant that he could witness the happenings within it. And also to find a bit of excitement and a few Miza in his pocket. If also he could find some lead, then he would really be cooking with fire Reimancy.
And so the Reimancer entered the establishment with some form of subtle grace. It was not uncommon for him to draw attention, with the way his face was, arm too, but he did not pay mind. Even when he caught glances being gifted to him, they were put in his pocket with no remark. The tavern-like setting was hardly his forte, though it was indeed expected. To drink where you get your work, it was so very Ravokian. If only the undead could partake, indeed he would. Perhaps compete in a friendly competition, though there would be no point. In this place, he could be nothing but pariah, at least for now. The Mask of Many donning his face at all times, few would see past it. What freak would wear such a gruesome face at all times? At least he knew his place, and that he could get a job done. Before long the face would have a reputation to go along with it, and a goal made known. The first step however was to make a splash. The job board was a wall lined with the tasks assorted into different categories. That alone was a bit of information.
The category that stood out the most was one marked illegal. The others were interesting enough as well, some seeming more up the wizard's alley. Sadly there was not one for magic, but that did not mean there were no jobs related to it. One under the category of service stood out, requesting assistance in Glyphing. It would give good pay, use a talent he was proud of, and it would give him a reputation for doing so. The Chained One tore the posted request from the wall and headed towards the barkeep with arm raised towards the sky. "Barkeep, I've found a suiting job." Miro placed the paper on the table and brushed his hair back. He hoped that despite his appearance and actions he would still find service. "What can you tell me about this one?" It took all he had not to flash a nervous grin and reveal inhuman fangs.
