Swamped

For a moment, you wonder if this guy is the wizard. He doesn't look it, though. More like a cook.

But then you remember that Carma mentioned someone else. Someone it was risky to contact. Maybe this is him? And since you never got in touch, he wouldn't know about the little bluff you pulled off.

Well, hells. If he's scheming with Carma, you can continue the charade, but if he actually is the wizard or something, then that would land you in deeper trouble. On the other hand, if you spill the beans on what you know and he's working with Carma, well, he's not going to find you very trustworthy.

So you've got a couple of approaches you could take here, but you've got no idea which will work. And he's looking pretty impatient, so whatever you're going to do, you'd best do it quickly.
