Though my inner wolf is not fond of the loud, wild tavern scene, the thought of the silver coins makes my beast relent. Promptly at 7 PM, I show up at the Blissful Uncle’s Tavern, the city’s most opulent watering hole and a veritable gold mine for the high packs. The crowd inside this stone tavern is either loaded with gold or carries massive pack influence from the high council.

It's darky and encrusted with the smell of years old smokers, cackled laughter and even blood where fights over the most ludacris things have taken place. I glance around, seeking the right spot where I'm sure information is bound to turn up. There's hushed chatter in a corner, men and women gathered together, almost as if conspiring a revolt. It's the wrong crowd to be around, but I grab a chair, ordering a drink and pretend to mind my business. "Do you know where he's gone off to?"

An establishment that had been passed down through generations and had even withstood the great Lycan wars from two and a half centuries ago.
