[OoC: I apologize for vanishing. One of the places to look for info about what's going on if I've (or another GM ) stopped posting is in the GM News Feeds. Yesterday I posted that one of my clients was hospitalized (twice) so staffing was rather chaotic which limited my posting as I was called upon to help with his staffing needs. ]

[OoC2: To a certain extent that is true. You can move up to half your normal speed and use Hide at no penalty. But when moving at a speed greater than half but less than your normal speed it imposes a penalty of -5. Strange that the wording doesn't give any penalty for moving full speed other than to say, attacking, running or charging imposes a penalty of -20. And I'm not sure how much cover 4 people can give you to hide. Remember you don't have hide in plain sight so you can't hide from someone who is even casually viewing you. There are plenty of eyes in the streets and markets. ]
Simon will ask, "Betimi will you accompany me behind the screen in the corner for your procedure?" He then turns to address the rest of the group then says, "I must insist that no matter what you hear, you must not interrupt. Just know that what Betimi asks is by her own free will. If you interrupt you may spoil the procedure which may increase her discomfort. Do you all understand?" Once Betimi assures everyone that what Simon says is true, she joins him behind the operating screen. When hidden from view, there is some whispering, followed by a few minutes of silence. Suddenly the group hears muffled screams of pain. Tomeal is about to rush the screen but hesitates when he remembers what Simon says about causing Betimi even more discomfort. The cries turn to whimpers but then all sounds of anguish stop. Moments later Betimi steps out from behind the screen apparently uninjured.
