I'm an idiot

Dear diary,
 
Miss bird brain has been TERRIBLE for my focus. I realize what that's saying. It's not like I'm known for my attention span.
 
We should've gone to talk to Ripos ages ago.
 
Paid the greedy little fuck 11 gold in total, but I found out that:
A.) He knows OF Rasheeg Crastfunky, and knows he's been disappearing people for years. He said "no one" knows where to find him though (I'm skeptical of that claim but i don't have the gold to challenge the matter.
B.) He knows Salazar Rift, and is going to set up a meeting for me.
 
Right, I should back up. We went looking for Almond Starbone, got distracted, stumbled into her haphazardly anyway (of course we did). Alba turned into a dog. Alba got kicked as a dog. Did I mention that girl is terrible for my focus?
 
Almond told me that she works for Salazar Rift (who I am prettyyy sure is the Sal / S.R. that has Celene so yay right trail) who works for Ciavy. Cool. Glad we could verify that we are, in fact, all going to die.
 
I told Almond that I maybe had a business proposition for her boss and that he should contact me, so maybe paying Ripos was throwing away money, but eh. Spend it if you got it.
 
Either way! Current plan:
Meet with Salazar.
See if I can get him to bring up Celene, somehow. Maybe if I flirt with him and get him to say he has a girlfriend and then ask followup questions? That could totally backfire. Whatever.
Talk "business", vaguely, and see if we can learn any meaningful information about Rasherm Crestferm.
Improvise?
And then go kick some slaver ass, hopefully.
 
We should probably also pencil in time in our busy schedule to get murderated by Ciavy for meddling or whatever.
 
I'm worried about what I dragged Gry into.
