IC:
Tyre sighed, Jerik was more or less ignoring him. he glanced around at the other players, waiting for a response. He glanced over at slax, and was just about to say something to him when he noticed pere near the back of the room, sliding moolah, no doubtley given to him by glukkons, into a slot machine. Tyre stood up and headed for the machine.
Pere slipped in a coin, and then another. he attempted to put in another but it slipped out of his hand, and fell to the floor. The 1 moolah coin rolled across the carpet and stopped at Tyre's feet. Pere looked up. He was still wearing his work clothes-he must have slipped away from work.
Pere looked up and saw Tyre looming over him.
"hi." said Tyre plainly.
"oh, hi." said Pere.
Tyre looked at him.
"Why did you tell those glukkons where i was?"
Pere, opened his mouth.
"er... what do you mean?" said pere nervously.
Tyre swung his hand in an arc, and smacked Pere hard across the face. The pale mudokon fell back onto the machines, knocking the lever back as he did so. the reels spun, and they showed that he had won the jackpot! A slim card slipped out of the machine, saying "return this to office for prize!"
Tyre took the card, and slipped it into his loin cloth.
As Pere began to stand up, Tyre smacked him again, this time knocking him to the floor.
"Don't do that again." said Tyre firmly. He turned away, and walked past the poker table, tossing the card onto it, right in front of slax's nose.
"Don't use it all at once." said Tyre.
He left the casino and went back to his room. He opened the door, and went over to his side board where he had left his chanting rune.
It was not there.
He began to panic.
He furiously began searching around for it, and was worried when he could not find it.
someone must have been in his room.
He was just about to call room service when he saw it, on the opposite side board near the mirror. He sighed a sigh of relief, then put it in a draw, and layed down on his bed. Within a few minutes, he had dozed off.
