Leif is originally unhelpful to the PCs, but being a weaker individual, responds well to aggression and intimidation. Here's what he knows:

• The big guy they knocked out was his boss, and the guy that wrote many of the notes in Leif's apartment, his name is Lucien Vanko, and now that he's dead there's going to be all sorts of power struggles (he doesn't know that Lucian is still alive)
• He gets messages on occasion when he needs more people to pull off the small hits the Circle wants, they always seem to know which townspeople are down on their luck and could use a little more coin
• The boss was planning something bigger out of town, something involving a nearby orc camp to the southeast.
  • What's going on here? Probably some heist that they plan on pinning on the orcs

    They're planning on sabotaging a caravan of wagons destined to Qilaw, hiring a band of orcs as their scapegoats. If the players don't do anything about this, its going to happen west of Kaledorei pretty soon
• Leif's stash of cash is stored under the floorboards at his home, beneath the rig in his living room.

At her house, post interrogation, Strix finds a note left by the The Sapphire Torch, signed by their leader ( #todo ), with a simplified torch. The note says that they have answers to some of the questions the PCs have, and if they want them, the PCs need to complete a few jobs for them.

• The first of the jobs is to take out a group of gnolls that have taken up refuge in a small farm to the west of town. They recently moved in and took out a caravan as well as the owners of the farm, sell this as a test of their strength.

Hopefully this takes them a while. We haven't given them a name yet, and they are pretty secretive, so not much information may exist on the Torch if the players go looking

#seed
there are going to be like three monster attacks on this town in the near future, probably need to space that out with something, and definitely need to address it in the story, either through Jade or through the Torch, both would be motivated to do such a thing
