"Here is the contract!"

As he received the parchment that was held out towards him, Emery was inwardly feeling quite anxious because of the word contract. His experience in the Silvermane Kingdom made him worry about such things.

Fortunately, after reading the contents written on the parchment, said contract turned out to be a contract between the Turtle Rock Mercenary Guild and the employer, which in this case was Magus Hellast of the Raven faction.

The down payment for the job, which was half of the agreed payment, would be kept by the guild and only given out after the job was done. 

This way, things would go much smoother as if there was a dispute, the employer would have to face the whole Turtle Rock pirates; on the other hand, the payment would not have any difficulty to be returned if the mercenaries didn't do the job properly.
