Empty storage room near the offices in the Gallows. It's all right; that's all I wanted to know.
[He's still curious, because there's nothing Vandelin hates more than walking into a situation unprepared, and it's best to grab the upper hand with whatever knowledge you can possibly rustle up, but he doesn't want to seem cavalier or careless about security. He'll be all right. If the third mage is Myr, Vandelin knows better than anyone how to handle him, and if it's anyone else, he'll be starting from neutral ground at worst.]
Where would you suggest for the meeting? You know Kirkwall better than I do.
I know. It's an awful name. But it's... it's somehow enough to keep the people who will talk about anything they see for a price out of there, and dumb enough that the people who just want to start stabbing everyone and throwing punches don't go there.
[He's so tempted to laugh, and if the atmosphere weren't quite so businesslike, he would.]
I didn't think anything could beat that Northern-style restaurant with the ridiculous punctuation, but that'll do it. Still. As long as the place keeps us out of trouble, it can have as stupid a name as it pleases.
[Really, it's almost charming.]
I'm assuming it might be emptier in the afternoon, unless it's better to blend in with the evening crowd.
It's better to blend in. More noise means less of a chance of being overheard, and in the chaos we'll stand out a little less.
[He's kinda fond of stupid names. His cat is named Hero of Purrelden, after all.]
What's the Northern-style restaurant with ridiculous punctuation? I'm not sure I've noticed it and I could certainly go for a northern level of spice in my food. The south doesn't seem to understand the concept whatsoever.

Death's Death's Proud Bear.
[A beat.]
