Dorfam said as they left the table, "so while I was out drinking last night I came across that woman in there, her name is Fuea and she had quite a tale to tell."

Furnin only imagined what he must of looked like to her when they faught.

"Yeah, how'd she get out of jail? I thought the guards took her there?" Furnin said

Dorfam replied, "well since how I heard a member of Corduns Gang had quit I went to check it out naturally as the gang is something I wanted to deal with myself. I found Fuea drinking her life away at the pub last night. Becuase one does not simply quit the gang, so she was saying her last goodbyes. I wanted to discover what I could about thier whole operation so I could relay the information to someone else who could do something about it. So I made her an offer. I'd get her into the mercenary guild where she'd be offered sanctuary if she told me everything she knows."

Dorfam and Furnin stopped at a corner down the road where they'd been walking as they talked

Furnin says, " Hmm reasonable of you."

Dorfam says, " I can be. With a goal in mind. Anyways what I found out was quite disturbing they've been using a family's name and reputation to shake down local businesses and put some guards in their pocket, jailers specifically. "

Furnin put his hand across his chin thoughtfully and said, " explains why they don't stay in jail. What else did you find out? What family?"

Dorfam said, "ever heard of the family name Kunhemm?"

Furnin replied, "I think so, aren't they the main distributer of iron and steel this side of the Drin river?"

Dorfam nodded and said, "you know it. Well turns out the leader of the Corduns Gang kidnapped the whole family and forced thier daughter to make deals and shake down people for them."

Furnin said, "that's terrible, what else did you learn?"

Dorfam said as he eyed down the road, "turns out recently their daughter Luina Kunhemm refused to take this families home from them, and the leader made her watch as he killed her brother, her father, and her mother right in front of her."

Furnin's face drops into despair and he says, "did you say Luina? Oh no, that's why she's so terrified? The poor girl."

Dorfam raises an eyebrow, "so you know where she is? You seem to meddle in a lot of people's personal affairs of late."

Furnin responded, "yeah, I protected her from a few thugs, I didn't think about it at the time I was in a hurry. Wow, she's been through so much."

Dorfam says, "she's lucky you did! seems that the leader of the gang Zark Bulin wants her head."

Furnin asks clenching his fist in righteous anger, "do you know where they are?"

Dorfam notices the clenched fist and smiles as he says, "yes I do, I'm curious to see the person in action that was called the ferociously fearless beast by Fuea."

Furnin says, "I'm ready to go deal with some pieces of scum who wanted to play god with people's lives."

Dorfam says, "I'm itching for a bit of bloodshed, if one or two of em loses a hand or leg, don't blame me."

Furnin says, "just don't kill them, they need to learn from their mistakes. Now where are they?"

Furnin's lost all sense of thought, filled with anger and frustration, ready to inflict a world of pain on those who have caused so much needless despair.

Dorfam says, "it's a mansion in the mid lower section, scouted it out last night before going to the pub meeting Fuea there. Must be at least 30 of them, you sure you can handle that many?"

Dorfam looked quizzically at Furnin with a slight grin. Furnin looked down at Dorfam since he was a head taller than him and said in a calm and straight tone, "the world around me is my battleground, and in the battleground I'll find my strength, and in my strength it shall lead to victory."

Dorfam looks confused and says, "wait, that's Durna's teachings, were you taught by her, wait are you the one rumored to put the she-devil on her ass?!"

Furnin says, "officially no, but she was a great mentor."

Dorfam whistles impressed then says, "yes I do believe that fighting alongside you is going to be interesting."

Furnin says, "come on let's go"

They head to the mid lower section and arrive at their destination

Furnin says to Dorfam , "remember no unnecessary deaths."

Dorfam replies with an eye roll and an annoyed tone, "yeah , I know, I know."

Furnin nods then proceeds to waste no time as he sprints at a man posted outside the the mansion door. He lunges into the air and heel kicks him dead in the chest and he breaks through the door with a shattering thud knocked out by the sheer force of Furnin's kick.

Dorfam laughs and says, "way to make an entrance."

Furnin does not even acknowledge Dorfam's comment and continues to charge the now arming men inside. Dorfam runs in and swings his broadsword across 4 men knocking their weapons out of thier hands then proceeds to thrash them into tables and walls knocking them unconscious true to his word of not killing them.

Furnin and Dorfam stand back to back as the multitude of gang members surround them Furnin says to Dorfam smiling, "do i need to worry about you?"

Dorfam replies with a chuckle, "not at all. I'm having a blast, just wish you'd let me kill them." Dorfam swings his blade and cuts off a man's hand clean off the man dropping to the floor in pain.

Furnin nods then proceeds forward at the crowd dodging swings left in right grabbing arms and shattering bones as he keeps moving along. The fight rages on until only 6 are left and the leader Zark comes out from up above on the stair case nearby.

Zark says to the two, "what the hell is going on here."

Furnin says as he wipes some sweat off his forehead, "Nothing personal. Just cleaning up some worthless filth."

Zark says, " ha! You're a cocky one aren't you? How do you like this then."

Zark pulls out two cross bows amd aims them at furnin.

Furnin says to dorfam, "clear my path I'll deal with him."

Furnin takes off running towards the stairs Dorfam swings and takes out the men charging at furnin, Zark shoots crossbolts one after another at furnin. Furnin catching each of them through his hands one after the other.

Furnin takes one out of his hand as he reaches Zark and rams it right up his throat through his mouth and into his head. Zark drops to the ground and a ravenous bloody furnin is gritting his teeth like a wolf pleased with its kill.

Dorfam looks up at the scene and seems satisfied with the bloodshed.

"Well done, well done. You are quite the fighter. I've never seen someone fight like that before in all my years as a merc. Now we just wait for the guards to come clean up this mess we've made." Dorfam said while nodding his head and looking around the mansion.
