[ Cassian is perched just outside one of the furthest tents of the caravan, out of the blazing sun as he reads over the vellum scroll in his hands several times, trying to memorize it. Only once he is done so does he put it away and pull the silver pendant out of his clothes to send a message to the rest. ]

So, I am still fairly new here. Finding my feet.

Surely there is a way to be useful? A way to earn a credit or two?

I’ve heard that there are things in the desert, that can be found by those with sharp eyes. But are they even worth the retrieval, I wonder? Who would even want them?

[ Jimmy and the desert are not on good terms, so this comes in at an awkward hour. Probably well after Cassian's left his perch—maybe as late as nightfall. ]

Looking for a broker?

Duly noted.

Let's just say I have an expansive wheelhouse and a nose for opportunity.
[ And no compunctions about mixing metaphors. ] You probably want a magic guy on board too, but good luck finding one who's familiar with such concepts as "the economy."

What do you make of the gadget they gave you?
[ You know, the one we're talking on right now. ]

Yeah? [ Asks the man who engages with magic almost exclusively against his will. ] What's got em spooked?

Interesting thought.
[ Yeah. "Interesting." ] If it does have a tracker, it doesn't tell our overlords—no disrespect to any overlords who might be perusing this—when one of us gets beamed back home. Or, well, they're playing dumb about it.

You take it apart yet?
