You need to choose wisely in the city of New Atlantica. You need to be careful who you trust, who you do business with and most importantly, who you befriend.
I met Marucs for the first time in a pub downtown. It was a wretched place, packed with scumbags and troublemakers. Just what a man needs when looking for a proper adrenaline kicker.
After a few beers and some ill-advised pool games I got into a fight, a real nasty one with my face being smashed by a couple of mean looking guys as an outcome.
He didn't get into it; fighting was not his thing as he later told me. But he did buy me a drink when I came round from the beating. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy and he held a decent conversation.
I got his attention the moment I told him I was a writer looking for inspiration.
"So, do you want to know my secret then?"
Little did I know that his secret was going to act as my future inspiration, just not for writing ...
