He's dead? How unfortunate... I mean... how sad for his family and friends. But it would also be unfortunate if we were to lose his donation....

Cunius Pelelius owns part of the Caldera Mine. He's a man of wealth and influence. You'll find him in Caldera at the Governor's Hall.

Yes. I am Cunius Pelelius.

He's dead? Why tell me?

I'll tell you why Cunius Pelelius is slow to redeem his pledged donation. Because he's gotten in a bit of money trouble. And he's solving the problem by skimming from the mine and smuggling raw ebony. That's what people say in private, anyway. It would be hard to get proof. The slaves in the Caldera ebony mines would know. But they would be hard to persuade to talk. They're afraid, and who can blame them?

Why should I tell you anything?

Dead? We did not know. We know nothing.

I am afraid. If I speak about Cunius Pelelius and his smuggling raw ebony, then someone might hear.

I am afraid. I cannot speak about this... rumor.

His death is a matter between you and the law. I didn't see anything. And wouldn't say so if I did.

It would not be wise for me to comment on Cunius Pelelius' money problems. But... perhaps you should speak with Olumba gro-Boglar. He is not afraid to speak his mind. You should find him here in the Governor's Hall.

I'm afraid I can't comment on Cunius Pelelius' money problems.

Yes. I heard about his death. Unfortunate.

I don't know anything about it. Other folk can say all they want, but it's more than my life's worth to pass rumors about a rich man like Cunius Pelelius.

He's dead, you say? Sorry to hear it.

Cunius Pelelius runs the Caldera Mine. He's a rich man, and powerful.
