After meeting deo and animus shiv had played his hand throwing in with them. Possible word might travel to Seethe that he agrees or is working with them. Though as rafiel had problems so should she with proof. Many rumors follow Shiv none he seeks to correct, prove, or disprove.
"heh...truth tis good for em ya trust...else let em all get er wrong."
Staring at the diamond he watched what little he had gotten.
" A city of crumbling towers beneath a striated sky. Soft, musical laughter. A reptilian eye with colors swirling within. And finally, a swirl of diaphanous red silk. Afterwards, nothing but the door."
"hmm...red sash tis 'er group from deo's research. em base tis Broken Reach, seems em succibus or such like control an poison..use drugs ta control...gave ixi a dagger wit some'n in 'er...an drugged alva er what ever er name wit distill pain....none of what 'er trade tis illegal just force'n folks ta do ya bid'n tis....interest'n...as figured 'er just a grunt taint 'nut'n but a knuckle dragger....tail of snake taint head..*chuckles*...'haps scream well".
*putting the gem away he pulls out another with something silver in it*.
Petting the gem he stares into it relaxing, "Ya know when we met love ya gonna laugh wit me work'n wit paladins an such...If'n em foolish tings like dis dinna make ya smile twould just stab 'er in an alley....tis easier..'ope ta find a door for ya lass."
Sighing, he wiped away a tear then put the gem away.
"Tis time ta find em book 'bout succibus....an door ta Broken Reach...'haps find a small box an deliver 'er in a few back ta em *chuckles*"
As his hand went to his side he felt that pouch with the necklace. Shaking his head more work to be done. Would be wise to figure the puzzle in his pocket before what he does not know kills him.
Finding another broken down house shiv sneaks in setting up for his spells. Five diamonds circle the bag this time he is seeking to know all he can about who made it, its actual effects, lingering enchantments, or other things about the item.

Shiv wanders back to the barracks hiding until getting to the desk. Appearing he speaks to the man there.
"I seek rafiel...almost 'ave me tab paid."
If he gets to speak to rafiel he ask about what happen at room #9, and what item did he get from that merchant.

Several minutes after Shiv had arrived and asked for him, the weary Harmonium officer would have emerged from the depths of the barracks, only to lead the masked man back in. Perhaps this wasn't the smartest place to discuss anything, seeing as he wasn't even supposed to be investigating Seethe anymore... but exhaustion trumped common sense, and soon enough they were in one of the large, empty rooms that must have usually been used for mass briefings.
Once making sure the door was securely shut behind them, he would proceed to pace back and forth across the room, trying to sort through his jumbled thoughts in an attempt to regurgitate enough information to update Shiv.
"It's a gem... or sorts," He began vaguely, turning to Shiv again. "We believe it allows contact with the Red Shroud. ...About ninety-seven percent sure it does. Touching it, holding it, activates it. We've only used it once so far, as it seems to pulse a large amount of magical energy on use, and we don't want to alert anyone as to its presence." He'd been searched for the gem upon arrest, after all, and he had no desire to draw attention in this matter back to himself.
"I'm not... exactly sure what more there is to tell you about it, besides the fact that it's not proving to be a very big clue to anything... so far." He finally finished after a long pause, having deliberately avoided discussing what had actually happened in the room. It wasn't vital information, and he had no desire to go into such detail.
"Any questions?"

Immediately, he had regretted asking if there were any questions. Of course Shiv was going to want to know more.
Sighing, perhaps an attempt to convey his lack of patience these days, he answered; "There were books, yes... ledgers. We confiscated them. She says she doesn't have the abilities of a knowledgeable arcane mage, though there is some evidence to dispute those claims. Once I obtained the gem, she attempted to have her... associate... intercept it. Deo managed to blind the both of them temporarily, however, and we escaped with it." He moved over to the door again, checking it rather paranoid. To Shiv's last inquiry, his answer came quickly, without hesitation, and lacking an explanation as to why; "No."

He shrugs to the response not shocked, nor really upset.
"So tis 'ow I figured 'er get'n ya arrest'd twas ta kill the messenger due ta ya get'n close...'n drop'd em charges due ta ya took 'er toy....If'n twas me twould see 'bout em folks in mount celestial twould let ya keep it dere...last place figure 'er ta go....'n ya a deo can research em wit lots a backup."
Takes out a flask and drinks, then is chewing something crunchy from the flask.
"ya could research 'er further wit out worry 'n such....'n twould seek ta make a few fakes 'haps carry one on ya so if'n a sap tries ta pinch er get wrong one...'haps make 'er explode if'n activated."
Tilts his head back taking more ice out of his flask.
While crunching ," Seems ya 'ave 'er by er ties, taint much for 'er ta do but panic....'n hire folk ta seek ya 'n em bauble out, Best put 'er were none ta look...'ard ta tread...'n make a few fakes....donna tink much more I can do 'cept put er in the book...ya get 'er on the block....tis a favour will ask from ya put a few die 'n front of 'er face. *chuckles*... glad ta see ya came out on top lad. Seek me if'n ya need 'elp".
As he walks towards the door he stops for just a second, "ah..'n I put jach on 'er ta...figured em tis like me....'ave wits...figure em get somet'n outa 'er...'haps em do somet'n worse *shrugs* ya know em disguise somet'n ya once spoke ta me 'bout..dunnno know 'bout jach..figure em palms dyed red ta. Keep ta the shadows lad"
