Challenge information

A matter of luck: It could go either way (success chance: 50%)

Success

"Ah, [formal address], I was hoping to speak with you."

[...] the Mysterious Stranger explains their position in [...] a recent falling out with the person in charge, and a decision to seek revenge. They would share private information, in exchange only for the knowledge it will be used cunningly.


Failure

You follow, and they evade you skilfully.

A carriage careens between you [...] Then it passes. You run towards the cloaked person across the street. But this cloaked person is not the Stranger [...] This cloaked person sees a mud-splashed [informal gendertitle] running towards her. She clutches her handbag and screams.
