Last time Locke did anything he had been shot through the lung while doing a caravan, and ended up in a hospital bed. Damn barrier piercing bullets.

Your hospital bill was cut out of your pay for the trip and you're left with a few days R&R wherever you ended up. You find that you're in Kalmoth. (I think you were headed there. If headed FROM there then they sent you back with someone...)
Eventually you're released under your own supervision with a sore side and a new list of precautions to take into account.

After a lot of thought while aimlessly wandering through the streets, I'm convinced that after being beatin up and pushed around by almost everyone that i've met so far, i need to find a way to increase my skills.
So I'm gonna start asking around for any well known psychics in the town, with hopes that i might beable to convince one to take me under their wing as maybe a apprentice or something.
In any case i'm still gonna need to find a job, and perhaps this might lemme get to know the people of this place so i have a chance at future employment here.
(happy channaka aaron!)

(Silence Jew!)
75% of kalmoths residents are temporary, coming and going with caravan work or the like, the rest own shops or just do round town jobs. As such, it takes a while to find any leads of that sort.
Eventually you're pointed towards a man who is currently scheduled to go out with a caravan shortly. Apparently he's skilled, but he's about to be on his way. This isn't so much the right situation to look for a mentor in, but perhaps he'll point you further along your path.
His name is Dennis Nailer and you're told where he's staying.

Nope.
You sit aside in a sort of waiting room/cozy place waiting... for somebody... every time someone comes down the stairs you ask "Dennis Nailer?" maybe?

So the owner peers at you curiously.
"What's all this then? Looking for a man you don't even know what he looks like yeah. You know folks aren't right now? Fine fine. I'll tell him you're lookin' for him, but you wait here!"
You think you caught all he was saying...
He heads off and in a few minutes comes back "He'd be down in a minute if he weren't lying."

"Thank you for your time" I'll give him a few bucks as a tip, and then hurry up and wait for him to come down.

He raps his fingers quickly on the desk before taking the money. He keeps his old look about him but lights up visibly.
After a moment a man in a brown leather coat comes down stairs. He stops half way down where his head is just out of sight, and leans to the side to see down without going any further. He looks between you and the desk guy a few times each, then slowly makes the last few steps.
"You need me?"

Locke will kinda fumble around for a moment, trying to think of a way to put it that doens't seem weird. "well... ummm, not really need, but if you don't mind, I would like to talk to you... if thats ok," more fumbling,"well what i'm trying to say that i'm looking for someone who would be able teach me a bit, either lessons, or mentor, or someone who'd let me just tag around or, well, anything really. I heard you were of good skill.... I mean, i know you're about to go out on a caravan, so I'd be thankfull even if you were only able to point me in the right direction or something."

"...of what?" He seems to have no clue that you're speaking of psychic thingies.

All you know is he has psychic potentials. Whether it is telekinetic or Telepathic in nature is unknown.
