"The goal posts have moved, lieutenant. In the absence of the badge I have informed my employer there will be a probe."

She shakes her head vigorously. "My plan is to share information. The only way to do that now is by telling my employers you've kept your end. Which I hope you will, because let me tell you: we are in dire waters."

Why yes! Tucked away under that sturdy green raincoat, almost rustic in its simplicity -- a silk shirt and matching scarf around her gentle throat...

While dull orange pearls hang from her ear lobes, red from cold. Her light green eyes scan you, full of knowledge -- and worry. Wealth and all its possibilities.
These are the kind eyes of the rich-man, that seem to say: everything is possible...

- Oh, but you are: too ashamed to ask this person for money, too scared to belittle yourself in her eyes -- those half-precious stones of Eau-de-Nil.
- You think your little communism" protects you from this feeling? No. The more demeaning* it is to grovel at her feet...
- Yes. You should be able to take care of yourself. Not grovel at her beautiful feet, dishonouring yourself and your organization with this request...

- Shame? You haven't really been in the presence of gentlefolk either, have you? What shame is there to be felt in front of these... dockworkers, cops and hotel clerks. But to belittle yourself in these eyes of Eau-de-Nil...

"As I was saying..." Her voice breaks the silence and suddenly you're back again. Nearby, a seagull pecks at a piece of garbage... "If there's any way I may be of assistance, please don't hesitate to ask."

She looks at you, expectantly. It is as if you have said nothing -- because you have not. No begging words have left your mouth...
