"Well at least they didn't execute you, the last guy I sent up there got staked on the beach shot and left for the crabs to eat." Hanlon was really making me feel better about my trip up north, in that he wasn't doing that at all.
"I'm so glad you let me in on all the places I should avoid on penalty of death by gunshot."
"Oh they didn't kill him with the gunshots, the crabs literally finished him off."
"I'm so glad you tell me these things." In that I'm not glad he tells me these things. I was at the Hanlon factory, figuring that was the best place to run into Hanlon outside of some how calling him up out of the blue. He was there over seeing some kind of weapon shipment, it looked large, but I have no idea when or where he shipped anything and everything looks big to me (no dick jokes please!)
"Trezlan you never asked, and you need to understand things changed while you were away. If I have to go over every little place you should avoid I'm sure all that will be left is one hut on a mountain surrounded by man eating plants."
"Oh so now you've been reading my mind to know where I wish to be more than anything else?" He looked at me sour.
"I have actual work to do Lorentino, please see yourself out as you saw yourself in." He turned around and then walked off. Which was nice since he didn't just disappear from the catwalk, in a way Hanlon with his factory and his workers had become normal, though still creepy as he can apparently disappear and reappear at will (despite what he claims to the opposite). I did take his words to heart, so I went to the one place I knew I could catch up on all the things I missed. No not a library, I went on a tour of bars! Well it was more of a drink till I felt better strategy, but I learned so much while I was there!
