The Guild's top file is mine — most cases closed, the exploits worn as a street-coined nickname. The look, since clients ask: long brown hair, blue eyes running arithmetic before handshakes, silver catching the lamp at each quoted rate, red over black, boots to the knee, pads where hits land. Chaz swings too slow and hears about it daily — he lives with me in Aiedo, full-fledged, exactly as filed. My age and past are need-to-know; nobody ever needed to. Bring work and meseta, in that order.
