"You shouldn't have watched." Rattle said as I returned coming back down from looking out from the manhole.
"I know." I said.
"So why did you?" He asked.
Why did I? I thought to myself.
But as I thought this I knew the answer. I looked because we came so close to leaving, with possibly the only person in the southern part of Golarion who was willing to take us.
The only person, after almost a year down here, willing to get us out of crap situation. I mean, Osirion, Thuvia and Nex are nice. But the other nations...........We caught up with Venom and Bukka who didn't seem to notice that we were gone. Bukka was still talking to his 'business ' partners which were two ratfolk, about 4ft tall in ragged robes. One of them, a male had light brown fur and the other, a female had black fur.
"Tis mayhem up there." The male ratfolk said. "The guards everywhere, looking in every building. Jix almost got killed to get away!"
The female ratfolk, who I assumed to be Jix nodded furiously.
"We had to pull back our family agents because it's so frantic up there. Some of them were found by the guards, and were luck to get away. Three of them lost the ends of their tails!"
"Family agents?" I asked Bukka.
"The entire ratfolk population is one big family." He explained. "Jix and Ninnce are the head of the family."
Jix bowed politely to me, but Ninnce gave me an angry look.
"What did you do?! I had to pull back family agents." He explained again. "Did you attack city guards or something?"
"Actually yes." Rattle said. "But they attacked us first."
"We were simply at the wrong place at the wrong time." I said as I explained what happened.
"Very sad news my friend." Bukka said after I finished. The two ratfolk nodded in agreement, seeming to forget what we done to their 'business '.
"So what will you do?" Bukka asked.
"Leave I suppose." I said.
"Agreed." Venom said. "That would be the best course of action."
"But were will we go?" I asked.
"Well." Bukka said. "There is a town about four days from here in the south. Bukka can show you."
I looked to Rattle and Venom who just shrugged.
"I guess we can go there." I said with not much enthusiasm. "Not like we have much of a choice."
We followed the two ratfolk through the sewers to were eventually, we came out a drain pipe that led out of the city and into the river half a mile away.
There, with the help of Bukka we crossed the river without getting wet, waved goodbye and once again followed Bukka to who knows were.
"This is it my friends." Bukka said as we walked up to the top of the sand dune. "Welcome to Solaris."
The town itself was regular, nothing special about it. The only thing interesting about it was that it had a large wall, about 50 ft in height, around the entire town, with huge wood doors.
"The town itself tends to be quite. It is not as big or widely know as Azir, but is a popular place for merchants to stop when the are heading to or from Azir." Bukka said. "But the town should have no trouble accepting you. They tend to have the occasional gnoll, tieflings, and ratfolk. I've even seen a Trox, a rare thing to see."
