Dingiswayo

A leather belt was wrapped around Dingiswayo's green and pink panco on the right side of the belt was a circular holster in the holster was an iklwa spear with a heavy iron point and a short wooden shaft.

The spear bounced slightly with each step as Dingiswayo walked through the streets of the mixing bowl. As Dingiswayo approached his destination and he rubbed his bald head and reached into a pouch sitting on his belt. From the pouch, Dingiswayo pulled out a handful of ground Lolul cicuta. Dingiswayo stuffed the green herb into the back of his mouth and began to chew letting the juice produced fill his mouth.

As he chewed Dingiswayo walked into the office a healer's office. Inside the office was a bench with two Tolu men sitting on it next to the door and facing the bench was a wooden counter with a Yampuran woman standing behind it looking into a book. "The healer is working with a patient please take a seat." said the woman not bothering to look at Dingiswayo.

Dingiswayo took a step closer to the counter and raised his badge from his neck to the woman's eye level. "Is the healer working with a Northman? Pale blonde hair and followed by a wolf?"

The woman nodded her head up and down.

Dingiswayo turned to look to a wall one side of the counter. In one part of the wall was a doorway covered by a drape. Dingiswayo pointed to the doorway. The woman nodded.

Dingiswayo stepped through the drapes and first saw Hvitur lying on the floor next to Adaar's feet.

Hvitur stood up and walked towards Dingiswayo. Dingiswayo lowered his hand and let the wolf smell it. Hvitur sniffed Dingiswayo's hand for a moment before licking it Dingiswayo rubbed Hvitur behind one of his ears before approaching Adaar.

The healer, an Azyan man stood behind Adaar looking at a bloody cut in his shoulder a bloody bowl filled with rags sat next to the healer's feet.

As Dingiswayo approached the healer asked Adaar "know him?"

Adaar looked to Dingiswayo " Yes he is fine."

The healer returned to his work washing Adaar's wound.

"You kill him?" Asked Dingiswayo

"He got away."

"What he look like?"

"He was Yampuran, had long hair wore it in a top knot."

"What was he wearing?"

"Robes, loose and black."

"I think he might have been a yakuza."

Dingiswayo looked to the healer who was staring back at him. Dingiswayo stepped back and stood to lean against a wall as the healer finished stitching Adaar's wound close. After the healer had cleaned the wound he said to Adaar "You'll want to take it easy for a few weeks, I can't promise you'll get full control of your arm again but it will heal somewhat."

Adaar looked to the healer and let out a low growl as he reached into his coin purse. Giving a handful of septums to the healer as he passed Adaar walked out of the office. Dingiswayo followed Adaar as he walked out. "Where to next?"

"I need to stop by a blacksmith where are the Yakuza?"

"We've been watching them, as far as we can tell they operate out of a basement in a bar here in the mixing bowl I'm pretty sure we've drunk there before."

"I am getting a shield made, tell me where they are while it is being made."

"Come to dinner tonight I'll tell you everything we know just don't do anything stupid yet."
