The Minnow steps out of the men's room and nods to Gulak.
[Elven]'"Excuse me a moment."
She steps into the women's loos, walks into a boothe, and leaning lightly against the door of it, she quietly empties the pouch into her own, sifting out any obviously personal belongings, and puts those back in the pouch. She dumps the man's pouch in the loo and heads out again.
She nods at Gulak and looks around. No sign of Violar... Perhaps he went upstairs. She makes for the stairs and climbs up.

The little pouch doesn't seem to contain any letters but there is a very small piece of paper with the following written on it: Apart from that are 50 platinum pieces, a small pouch with some dark yellow crystalline powder in it and two yellow stones. As Minnow comes back inside she sees a familiar person come running from upstairs. V [Elven] "Minnow! What's wrong, what happened?!"

[Elven] "Violar! Brother."
The Minnow runs up to him and grabs his shoulders.
[Elven] "Where have you been? I was worried! You were taking so long."

Violar seems a bit flushed from running down the stairs and a bit of puzzled worry.
V [Elven]"Huh? What? I was just upstairs. What happened? I heard your whistle... I thought I was imagining at first but- something wrong?"

The Minnow sighs and pats one of his shoulders.
[Elven] "Nothing. The wrong people are a-foot this night, and I do not wish to lose you..."
She lets go of him.
[Elven] "... too."

Violar gives Minnow a curious look with a puzzled eyebrow and scoffs.
V [Elven] "Wrong people? What, other than your two-minute prize human-stud and his so called friend?"
He frowns a little to the last she says and looks her over briefly, his voice lowering a little as he falls a bit more serious.
V[Elven] "It was just cards, Min."

The Minnow gives him another serious look before she flashes him a smile and sets her hands on her hips again, swaying them a little and giving him a look very much as their mother would.
[Elven] "Cards, Isilindi? With whom, oyee? How much do you owe them?"

Gulak kept silent with his hand folded, as the two where talking. He wouldn't have stayed, if he had anywhere to go. He smiled at the sin of Minnow's brother.
[Elven]"Gambeling is for those who beleave in themselves too much, for their own good... don't let it be your downfall, friend..."
Gulak, rude as he was, unfolded his arms, pushed off the wall to walk to the two, and immidiatelly offered a hand for Violar to shake.
[Elven]"Gulak of Guinnesec... you must be the lost brother"

Minnow's eyes flare at Gulak, and she hisses under her breath.
[Elven] "This is family business, stranger."
She takes Violar's sleeve and pulls him aside, getting away a good bit from Gulak before she turns back to him for his answer.

Violar is just about to answer and opens his mouth when Gulak speaks and walks up to them. He seems to completely forget what he is about to say and just looks at Gulak with a pretty blank expression save fore the surprise. He blinks and takes the offered hand still a bit taken aback. He only holds it for a moment and not very tightly.
V "Violar Ecaither..."
He doesn't get much further before Minnow cuts in and pulls him aside. He looks at her and then at Gulak and then back at her as her tugging pulls him away and he almost stumbles more than walks down the last step of the stairs he was standing on. As they come away from Gulak he scratches his hairline a little with a half amused, half questioning look on his face.
V [Elven]"I don't. I'm not stupid enough to get in to debt for no reason. Stop mothering me, Pilaray. It was just a bit of fun. You're having it..."
With a shrug he buries his hands in his pockets and then glances over towards Gulak before looking back towards Minnow, though more at her feet than her face.
Inside the bar it is beginning to thin out a bit and the sky outside is starting to grow pale, seen though the back door that is more open than not with people passing through and forgetting to shut it. Both Minnow and Gulak probably feel tired.

The Minnow sighs.
[Elven] "Please don't say that name, not here. Violar, you're not used to this place. These people are no blood. They will use you. Of course you can have your fun, it's why we came here, and yes it's only fair- to put things straight, by the way, that man isn't with me and he isn't going to. But Violar... look at my face, Isilindi..."
She sighs again and shrugs.
[Elven] "Cardplayers are often umedain. You are not a child, but staying alive in the city is like riding a wild horse- you wouldn't let an untrained man do that, would you? Let me see these men, Violar."

Violar chews on the inside of his lip and cheek as his eyes roam the floorboards of the little hall while she speaks. He looks up as she asks him to a quietly grumbly look on his face.
[Elven]"I don't see why you have to see them. They are just people at cards nothing more. So what if they are umedain each to their own. They did me no wrong."
He shrugs and looks away.

[Elven] "Brother..."
The Minnow sighs and frowns.
[Elven] "I promised to look after you, because you don't know how things go down here. Let me keep that promise, will you?"

Gulak frowned at Minnow. Ok, he wasn't too tactfull in such situations, but he wasnt dumb, and he knew he wasn't wished. Softly, he hissed in himself.
[Undercommon] "My blade is itching. My bowstring almost stretches himself, I'm anctious to act."
He raised his eyebrows at Violar, and took a deep breath. A subtile gesture of 'It's your problem.' He tucked his hands in his pockets, and wanders off, walking back to face the two elves.
[Elven]"I'm heading back to our table. I'm sure I'll see you later."
He smiles at Minnow, and takes his right hand off his pocked, to hold it up by means of a greeting. That's when he brings his hand down and turns around, marching out of the back hallway while whisteling a merry drinking tune.

Violar gives an exasperated sigh. he throws Gulak another confused look and nods a little puzzled at him before looking back to Minnow.
[Elven]"I know and I appreciate it, but..." he sighs again "...what do you want?" he gives in with a puppyish look from under the strands of hair falling in his eyes.
