The riverboat docks are just outside the postern gate along the bank of the river. Black Ryan is recognizable immediately because despite being hundreds of miles from the nearest sea, he still dresses like a sailor. He's currently yelling at another man, in finer dress, "I don't CARE if ye got the money ta make th' trip. I'm not sendin' out any more boats ta get destroyed or stolen or whatever's 'appenin' ta them. It's bad for me business!"

Avarice approaches Black Ryan
"Excuse me, might I have a moment of your time?"

Black Ryan turns to regard Avarice angrily, "What can ye possibly want? Can't ye see that oi'm busy at th' moment?"

Avarice turns towards the man Black Ryan was speaking to.
"Actually, I was speaking to you. Why are you in such a hurry to leave the town?"

Ryan looks confused, "Leave? What're ye talkin' about? I weren't leavin' the town, I was explainin' ta this fool why we can't send anymore boats out onta the river."

"Sir, I was speaking to this man over here, not you. If you have something to discuss with me, then it can wait until I'm finished with this man who is looking to leave town."

Black Ryan walks away angrily.
The finely dressed man turns to regard Avarice, "I have three boats in the shipping trade and I wanted them sent down-river, but THAT man refuses. He says some nonsense about swamp monsters or some such, but I think I'll take my chances. The sailors won't let anything happen to my shipment if they know what's good for them!"

"Various places down-river. At least one trapper's camp likes to buy supplies, and I think there's a friendly barbarian village down that way. I can't keep track of all these peasants, I have money to make!" He glances around impatiently, "Are we done here?"

"I'm sure we'll meet again, Alfonse."
Avarice returns to town, meaning to speak with Cordac and later tonight Bishop Joachim.
