[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

"If you want, we can head over to the Challenger's Board and see Valder finish his match. I lost a couple battles there, which has set me back quite a bit in paying of my fine to the Cheshire League. $625 is no too much normally, but it is when you need $3000 by 7 days, its a more poultry than not. Bastards...isn't a mark against my record punishment enough, without having to drain my bank account dry?" Needless to say, the researcher was still quite bitter over his current standing, despite his repentant attitude towards Lumen now.

Nathan's jaw practically hits the ground.  Krlia almost drops the pearl in surprise as well!

"Wait, THREE THOUSAND?!  Ventus, what did you get charged for?!"

Giving it some thought though, a charge as hefty as that would likely mean...

"Never mind, I have a bad feeling I know the gist of what it is, based on our earlier conversation..."

Nathan starts rubbing his temples again.

"Sigh...if you're struggling to get that much cash before the deadline, maybe I'll help you out.  Maybe.  Only this once, though."
