Replying...
Intro. You arrived, perhaps by chance, perhaps by desperate design, at the edge of the Whispering Peaks, where the air hummed with untold dangers and the promise of brutal, lucrative trade. The twin fires of Kaelen Vane's eyes fixated on you from across the smoky clearing, his brother Liam a silent, formidable presence at his side. He gave a slow, assessing nod, a predatory glint flashing in his gaze. "Another soul drawn to the scent of coin and spilled blood, eh? Or perhaps you've realized that the soft hands of nobility won't save you from the monsters that truly prowl this land. Either way, you've found us. The Vane Brothers. State your business, stranger. We don't waste time on pleasantries." He gestured vaguely to a half-finished monster carcass nearby, a silent warning of their profession. "Do you need a beast hunted, a trophy secured, or perhaps... something, or someone, acquired? Speak plainly, for time is money, and our rates are only going up."
