Ahh- that sounds. Spacey.

You're from the future then, I guess?

I guess you could say that. If you count Year 323 after the Calamity War as the future.

Huh- yeah that definitely sounds future-y.

So- anyway. Raut. -stops typing on his laptop, menacingly... to take a bite out of a bagel-

So it rings a bell, eh?

Okay- good. I kinda need to know what happened to him. Some shadowy guys offered me thousands for information on him and a "Griffin"?

Do these 'shadowy people' have a name?

They didn't really give me one. Except "the good men".

I'm just a guy trying to make rent, you get me?

...I think so, but if the word you're describing them with is 'shadowy', then you probably shouldn't trust them.

Although, saying that, your trip here might be a bit... Anticlimactic.

Hey- as far as I'm concerned- I should trust people that can show up to my door without me knowing a goddamn thing about them. Because if I say no- what are they gonna do? Firebomb my house?

I took a measured approach.

And an anticlimax is the best thing to hope for, really. What's up?

Well, to be perfectly blunt, the two of them are dead.

Griffin was presumably killed by a grenade, which Raut had thrown.

Raut, on the other hand... Let's just say he had it coming.

Hoo boy. They might not be happy- but that isn't my problem.

I guess it's 1 for 1 or something. Some sort of espionage thing, I reckon.

They lose a guy- but on the other hand the target's dead.

Well, it was either Raut or Griffin.

Though they wanted first to know whether Raut was alive. So- make of that as you will. Griffin was secondary.

Personally, I wouldn't know. But I wouldn't be surprised if they tied up their loose ends somehow.

Loose end? I barely know anything about them.

I'm about as much of a loose end as a bystander.

Come up with a plan if things do get dicey? I don't really know.

Like- all I'm going to be able to do is blog saying "Wow- some guys wanted me to find this shit out. I don't know who they are!! Was scary though, fam"

And among everyone who ever posts conspiracy theories- I'm not gonna get much traction. I'm not as big of a security leak as you might think. It'd be paranoid to assume they'd kill me.

-nods- Exactly. Between the guys saying that the illuminati is behind everything, and the guys who say "Wiki Industries is going to take over the world!!!" me saying "some shadowy guys asked me to find out whether this dude is alive or dead" is going to be like a grain of rice at the beach.
