Probably Reslin or Togar, not that Julian expects an answer

Sounds good to me."

Oh, so it would be OK to swap a darkened stone for a lit one in the tunnels?"

I nod in agreement. Seems like a firm but fair kinda guy.

I'll wait until after the interrogation to ask him about that.

I guess whatever Julian rolls is complementary to Lorek's Interrogation roll?
"
I mean, I'm only starting out spying on people, but this was just pathetic. Getting a good look at you and the bearded man, finding and destroying your cache of spears... Too easy."
"
And getting you to capture me... Did you think I went along with you because I was afraid? Of you?" I steady my hand before it betrays my false confidence, "
Don't make me laugh. It was all part of the plan. Make you give up more of your operation, get a couple of your men killed... All for nothing in the end."
"
At this point, I suppose you could keep your mouth shut, and face some nasty fate... Or you could try to cut a deal and save your skin. Up to you."
I went with Fast-Talk; Julian's just stitching facts together after all. If Acting would work instead that'd basically be a +1 to the skill. It's a pretty clear success, so I guess it doesn't matter.
