Kuros: A few stalls are empty
 
Kuros: A few stalls are empty
 
Lei_Zu looks around for someone tending to the horses
 
 
Kuros: You find a stall with fresh hay and feed, but no horse.
 
 
Kuros: And there is no one tending the horses.
 
 
Lei_Zu: Walking slowly but confidently as if his presence is nothing out of the ordinary Lei Zu approaches the door from the stables to the post building and enters.
 
 
Kuros: The door opens into a small room. Across one wall are square cubbies with rolls of paper sticking out of various ones. In the back of the room, there is a wooden table covered with even more papers. Behind that is a large, portly man looking over a piece of paper.
 
 
Kuros: He's dressed in a uniform, and apparently knows how to read and write.
 
 
Kuros: And he is older, late fifties.
 
 
Kuros: He looks up as the door opens, and a flicker of annoyance crosses his face.
 
 
Lei_Zu: As he gets up Lei Zu clears his throat, calling attention to himself.
 
 
Kuros: The man whirls to face you. "Wh-- What-- Who are you?"
 
 
Lei_Zu makes a confused face. "Who, me? I'm Bley. Sorry to have startled you."
 
 
Lei_Zu: "Who are you?" The question immediately follows his previous statement as to keep the man off balance.
 
 
Kuros: He goes back to his desk, settling himself into his chair. "I'm the postmaster, boy. What business do you have here?"
 
 
Lei_Zu: "Oh, good. Did you already send the rider to Lanterntown?"
 
 
Kuros: He narrows his eyes. "Official communications are not your business. Now be off with you, unless you have some business!"
 
 
Lei_Zu: "Oh. I just thought, I could send a message with the same rider and it might be cheaper that way. But if he's already left ..."
 
 
Kuros: "I can get your message there by tommorow night, if you need it."
 
 
Kuros: "Won't be cheap, though."
 
 
Kuros: He squints at you.
 
 
Lei_Zu: After waiting a moment to see the mans reaction Lei Zu bows slightly. "Sorry to have wasted your time then. No way I can afford that." His voice is a little sad.
 
 
Kuros: He grunts, and goes back to reading his papers.
 
 
Lei_Zu leaves the building, leaves the village, goes to rendesvouz with his agata
 
 
Lei_Zu: He then commands it to fly along the road leading to Lanterntown, looking to catch up with the rider. Going by air he should be able to catch up with him.
 
 
Kuros: The bug takes off, and heads north. Even at night, the road is relatively busy, but you do see a rider galloping north.
 
 
Lei_Zu: (does he have a post uniform, too? how many villages are there between this one and Lanterntown? how far away is the next one and could the rider reach the next one?)
 
 
Kuros: (You can't tell about his uniform from this far up. 1 village. The next one is about 20 miles away. Yes, he can reach it.)
 
 
Lei_Zu turns his clothes night black and makes sure his face is well covered. "The hard way then," he sighs.
