What You Owe
Your brother's debt puts you under an underboss's mark; the investigator hunting him offers escape. One promises an unlocked door—and both hide the truth from you.
Your brother has vanished with money missing from the harbor books, and the underboss finds you checking his figures after closing time. Lazar Brandt offers work against the debt and a place under his protection, with an unlocked door he seems determined you should remember. Before you can answer, the investigator who has spent years hunting him offers to get you out of the city. Brandt can make dangerous men leave you alone; Callum Reyes makes escape sound possible, though neither has told you everything about your brother's trouble. They are both used to being persuasive, and having all that attention turned on you makes it harder to separate what they're offering from what they want.
