God Stink

I was more than a little drunk still when I managed to make my way to my shop.  I'll admit struggling to open my own door in a darkened street probably not the safest position to be in, I mean the Guard tries to keep things all law and order like, but I think I've shown several times how wrong that usually is. So it came as no surprise after my second time of dropping my keys someone aided me in opening the door, the surprise of course was that it was Hanlon, as impeccably dressed as ever.

"Trezlan my boy its a beautiful nig," He paused mid creepy exhultation of how the night was wonderful and got a look on his face like rancid milk, "Ugh you stink of gods."

"Well I did kill one," I stumbled into my shop almost crashing into a newly moved shelf Nidget had set up, to my hilarious surprise he took being a shop manager extremely seriously, which was more than a little funny to me for a thief.

"No thats not what this smell is, and that wasn't really a god, more like a really powerful spirit." Even in my drunk state I was more than a little concerned with Hanlon's freakish ability to know things, "Though bravo using a curse of life release, I mean that kind of curse has to only really be useful on that creature and your friendly Morley."

"I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Right of course," Hanlon sniffed the air and I went to try and see where Nidget had put my pot for coffee I figured my night was about to get really long, "A God and a lesser being that bartender, not normally together something foul is a foot I believe." Hanlon was just talking things out so I decided to help.

"Yeah the wind god and the bartender were talking about killing a God or something I passed out during the conversation."

"Oh really? How delightful." I'll just mention again how creepy Hanlon is, like he's actually delighted at the idea of gods conspiring to murder one of their own, I almost worry he somehow grows stronger from strife in the world, I will say everytime I see him he looks healtheir, never older, and always very very clean. And need I mention the world is constantly at war or about to be? Yeah Hanlon is definately not something nice.

"Which God?"

"I have no idea I passed out."

"Well then I guess we'll have to find out."

"Wait what?" And that is how this new adventure with Hanlon got started, I'll admit we didn't try and kill a god, but seeing what we did get into, that would have been probably the easier thing.
