grant_sayA gift, friend — a traveler left it and never came back. Roads, ruins, the things he saw out east. Cheaper than the stories Ahnassi would charge you for.

greetingFriend! Come in from the ash. Ahnassi has bread, a warm bed, and news cheaper than either. What does the road need today?

quest_hook{"topic":"the silent cellar","quest":"silt_silent_cellar","entry":"Ahnassi has a Silt Hands word she'd rather you carry: a cargo-cipher waits in the Sunbleached Hold down in the southern flats, kept by its kneeling dead. Bring back the cipher — and decide whether the Unfailing Font that waters the place comes up with you or stays a rumour."}

quest_fork{"quest":"silt_silent_cellar","branches":[{"key":"deliver","label":"✦ Here's the cipher. The Font stays a rumour.","say":"Good. Clean. The Silt Hands count you owed-to now, friend — coin in your hand and a name they'll remember at the under-span. The Font stays a story the dry dead keep, which is exactly where a story like that belongs. Drink, on the house."},{"key":"keep","label":"✦ I kept the Unfailing Font.","say":"...Oh, friend. You held out on the Hands' own cache. Endless water is a fine thing to carry into the dry places, truly — but Sresha's people will have heard before you finish that drink, and the Hands mark slow and remember long. Watch the coast road. Ahnassi did not see you."},{"key":"leave","label":"✦ Just the cipher. I left the rest as I found it.","say":"The cipher's all the Hands wanted, and a place left whole owes nobody anything — wise, that. The Sunbleached Hold keeps its mercy and its kneeling dead, and you keep clean hands and good coin. Ahnassi likes a customer who knows when to take only what's owed."}]}

topics{"rumor":"They say the Lord-Holder hasn't left his hall in a year, and the Silt Hands land things at Tidewrack the guard pretends not to see. Ahnassi sees everything and says only some.","trade":"A few things fall off a hull now and then. Ahnassi finds them new homes. Don't tell Veller; he worries.","silt hands":"Sresha runs the coast. Hard, fair, quick to a buyer. If something needs moving quietly, the tide moves it.","cipher":"A coded manifest the Silt Hands need out of the Sunbleached Hold, south in the flats. The catch is the dead down there — long-dead faithful, still kneeling at prayer; they won't stir if you step careful. Walk soft, take the cipher, and there's coin and standing in it."}
