The pages of an ancient Grimoire have become embedded in his skin, giving a nasty shock to anything that makes contact with it. //...the enraged Imogen tries to stick her fiery claws into his back and pierce his heart with her demonic torture-aura, but alas… Leto's back is protected by one powerful stolen grimoire, and the Imogen's spell backfires upon her increased ten folds. Flames engulf her, her skin bubbles and blackens and she drops silently to the floor... (from [[Rise of the Bandit]])// | ||

| Just about then, a big carriage breaks through the wall of the feasting hall. And while everyone are distracted, [[#Brotha the Coachman]], carrying a heavy rope, sneaks into the vaults. He attaches one end of the rope to the safe, while the other is attached to another pimped up carriage that should be able to pull it out of the wall. | Just about then, a big carriage breaks through the wall of the feasting hall.

Leto wishes to go with him to the safe, but the Banker shuts the door in his face and locks it from the inside, preparing to watch his dogs tear the robber into bits. |
| + | |||
| + | Leto is unhappy with this, so he crashes the door with a dim-mak, which the exhausted Brotha promptly uses to escape. The angry Banker sics his dogs at Leto, and while Leto himself manages to bolt and run away, the dogs tear pieces of his magical armor away, and all the pages peal away and fall to the ground. | ||

| + | The Banker collects the fallen leaves and places them in his vault. | ||

| + | ==== Lord Steal's betrayal ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | On a fine afternoon, Lord Iwan Steal pays the Banker a visit. On his way in he encounters the Sloth, still tied to the fence, who is able through his bondage to offer a calling card. After a prolonged negotiation Steal agrees to transfer half his treasury to the Baner's care, with the sole condition of being shown the Banker's security measures, including a visit to the vault. | ||
| + | |||
| + | And so it is that a couple of days later Steal arrives with a wagon (driven by no other than a poorly disguised Brota) to unload said treasury into said vault, but as the doors open the Sloth shows up and emerges from his suit, all white and angelic and bloody fast moving. However, the divine music that almost seems to accompany this revelation comes to an abrupt stop when the Banker's hounds show up, tackle him to the ground and drag him through the mud. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Brotha takes matters into his own hands and crashes his wagon into the house. He suffers internal injuries and just barely manages to run away. On foot. The Sloth uses the diversion to slip away from the dogs and run into the house, and supposedly into the vault, but something - presumably related to Leto's (previously Einshem's) book - shoots him out of the front door, throwing him straight back to the dogs, who missed him dearly. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Lord Steal, in a last ditch attempt to save the situation, runs to the crashed wagon and pulls out a bomb he prepared. It was originally meant to help him crack the safe, should the need arise, but now he just picks it up and throws it at the Banker. And misses. | ||
| + | |||
| + | To appease the Banker, Steal claims the whole thing was only a test, and agrees to transfer the entirety of his treasury to the Banker's care. The Banker agrees, calls off his dogs and hands the Sloth his suit, but not before he snaps the suit's claws. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The moral of the story, in case you've wondered, is that teamwork doesn't work without coordination, and that players are crazy motherfuckers. | ||
| - | Leto, in the meantime, unsuccessfully searches the for contraceptives. | + | ==== The Fall of the House of Banker ==== |
