An Imperial soldier of some kind- or so Emery assumes- maybe isn't the safest person to approach but this woman doesn't seem particularly aggressive. In fact, her manner is on the apologetic, wary side.

Nevertheless, Emery acts as if he doesn't notice it and cheerily moves closer to peer at the map she brings out. So that's where they are...? Then, is the Verdigris House labeled anywhere?

Her question makes him blink.

"You don't know?" Emery considers, briefly, how to phrase it, then decides it's best to be direct. "It's a brothel. I hear it's a really fancy one, too. Apparently it's called the Verdigris House because it has this grand front entrance painted in green shades."
