Conversations In Nosgoth - Chapter Two

A man being harassed by an armed criminal:

Thug:
Give it to me.

Man:
I have no money.

Thug:
I'll cut your ears off...

Man:
They took it from me already.

Thug:
... Slit your cheeks...

Man:
If I had anything -

Thug:
... And then cut your throat.

Two thugs discussing the price of safety:

First Thug:
I wouldn't do that.

Second Thug:
Aw, he'll never know.

First Thug:
He has a way of knowing. He can smell it if he's not getting his proper share.

Second Thug:
I did the same yesterday.

First Thug:
Don't tell him you know me, then.

Second Thug:
Thirty percent for a bed for the night. It's robbery, that's what it is.

First Thug:
A safe bed where the Sarafan don't look for us.

Second Thug:
It isn't fair, I tell ya. I took all the risk to steal the stuff in the first place.

First Thug:
Just don't come bawling to me when he makes a crippled beggar of you, that's all I ask.

Two workers conversing behind a barrier of steam jets in the underground caverns of the Smuggler's Tunnel:

First Worker:
What have you done?

Second Worker:
The air down here is terrible.
