Hunnig:These are trying times, Captain. I called to let you know that your employer Duke Benninyninji, has been assassinated.
Tagon:Oh. Well, I'm glad I got half down in advance.
Hunnig:Ah, yes. You see, his estate has devolved onto the ministry of Agricentrist Deconstruction. Their auditors demand that you return that advance.
Tagon:I'm sorry. It's very, very non-refundable.
Hunnig:You were contracted for the use of force, and you've not yet actually done that. You haven't done any of the violent work that retainer was for.
Tagon:Are you suggesting that I may have to resort to violence in order to keep my money?
