(You've found a note.)

(The paper looks to be expensive, and that seal...where have you seen it before?)

(Ah! It's the seal of the Black Cloud Traders! Tienshunerk might want to see it.)

Hello Daeva!

I can help you, yes? You will tell Tienshunerk why you're here, yes?

Yes yes, of course! Black Cloud IOU!

Ah! I know! Nyerk! Must have been lost in the Shulack attack! Many Shugo things lost in attack. Lost stock, lost clothes, lost weapons, lost Shugos...and lost IOU notes! Very important!

This one has Aurunerk's name on it. Take it to him, yes?

Hungry...so hungry.

No... Kohrunerk is okay. Must stay strong, yes?

Ah! Sign of my problems! Where did you find this Daeva? Were my things there too?!

IOU is mine, means I must pay Kierunerk money for stock by a certain date. But stock gone, taken by Shulacks, yes?

Must work twice as hard now to make money. Must skip food too. Please, take IOU to Kierunerk for me. Don't want it here, nyerk.

Ah Daeva! Here for more Odella, yes?

Hmm...that was you wasn't it, yes?

My IOU! Yes yes, mine! Akakak!

Now Kierunerk can get more credit from Black Cloud Traders because I'm owed money! Need more credit for more stock, yes? Kinah to be made.

Thank you Daeva! Sad that Kohrunerk lost stock, but business is business, yes? Nyerk?

The note you found carries the seal of Black Cloud Traders. Give it to Tienshunerk.

You found a note carrying the seal of Black Cloud Traders.

You took it to Tienshunerk, who told you that the paper is used as an IOU by the Traders. He suggested you take it Aurunerk, a trader who had lost his cargo after an attack by the Dark Shugos.

Aurunerk admitted the note was his, and told you that he'd been working hard and skipping meals to pay the money back. He asked you to take it to Kierunerk, the other Shugo listed on the IOU.

Kierunerk took the IOU, and thanked you for bringing it to him.
