The Rat Man:
Pierce it with Silver!
Stick the courier
Found delivering a crate to a siren in the sewers.
Jaya followed him and tortured him (just a little bit) and finds out that he was hired by “the masked man from the Harlequin Rose” to deliver the goods to the Siren. She also learns the location of the Water Garden (even though he insults her for not knowing that before hand).
He says that all the food and items in the sewer were things he was stock piling that he would sell or trade to others.
The Rat Man was his former partner, Twig, who recently was afflicted with the wererat condition.
“I may be Stick, but I’m a stick that don’t break!”
The root of the patterned rose that the florist gave Jaya is actually used for Hysteria Root.
There’s another with black stems and purple roots
These were being held there as a favor to the Harlequin Rose.
