Ep 6. Can I See Your License Please?

After a successful hunt, Gwizdo tries to claim his dues from the client, brandishing the contract they had previously signed. The client, a pernickety provost, disputes the agreement, arguing that the service providers, namely Gwizdo and Lian Chu, are not registered at the Chamber of Commerce as legal dragon hunters. Gwizdo is indignant but the feudal agent replies that the world is full of rogues and rogue-ettes each as dumb as the other, but this does not mean there aren't rules to be respected. To hunt dragons, you have to be registered at the Chamber of Commerce, as stipulated in article n° 55 J 812 of the treaty governing inter-county trade. Gwizdo rails against the administration but consents to sign up. But to do so, they have to reach a certain quota of dragons killed in the last six months. Eight in all. However, Gwizdo and Lian Chu only have one item marked in their hunting ledger. There are seven more to kill before the end of the current period, that is to say, the next day at sundown. Seven dragons in one day! And all for free!
