Crak

Crak is in Wyrm's Crossing in Act Three.

“

The missus and I have been dreaming about the city - no more sleeping rough. Didn't expect to find it locked down tighter than a Watcher's fist.

Involvement

Act Three

Crak is standing near the entrance to Fraygo's Flophouse, speaking with his mate  Rilia. The couple has travelled to Wyrm's Crossing and got stuck here, because all available corners to stay have been occupied by refugees, adventurers or people who gathered to witness or hear a word about  Gortash's ordination.

Crak has been standing on guard all nights on their way to the city and is exhausted. He offers Rilia several possibilities for lodging, wishing only to obtain a warm meal and a bed. Alas, while worrying about him in words, in deeds she finds a reason to reject any option he proposes.

Idle banter

• Rilia

  I just want somewhere warm, and - and safe.

• Crak

  You are safe, my love - I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you.

• Rilia

  Look at you - you're exhausted. You've been pulling all-nighters to keep watch - I know you have!

• Crak

  I don't mind it - honestly.

• Rilia

  Well, I do! Which means we're getting a real room.

• Rilia

  Why does Wyrm's Crossing have so few lodgings? We need AT LEAST a double bed!

• Crak

  How about the Flophouse? It has plenty of spare beds.

• Rilia

  Great - we can bunk with ten other people and pray none of them have sticky fingers!

• Rilia

  We'd be better off sleeping in the gutter than that den of inequity.

• Crak

  Right, hear me out. Sharess' Caress also has rooms -

• Rilia

  We are NOT staying in a brothel.

• Crak

  Listen, it's got private rooms, music, and all-round pleasant folks, from what I've heard.

• Rilia

  And if a patron confuses me for a 'member of staff'?

• Crak

  I'd probably break his nose - good point.
