"Anyway, I have some books in my office about scanning charms if you'd like to brush up. Its always worth double checking, and never take anyone's word for what they've got protecting their interests, yeah? And some of those Goblin curses in particular, well they don't register with dark detectors or probity probes, you've got to use a charm thats tuned to Goblin magical constructions."
He held his coffee mug up in salute to Kayla.
"Good coffee. Did you make this?"
She hadn't meant to complain in front of the boss. And she held her breath waiting for him to scold on her on her major screw up, but he didn't and she started to relax as he talked.
"I've never worked in Thailand, but I've been to South America. Got locked in a nasty little finger trap from the Mayan's for 2 months before my cousin could get the thing off." she told him. She wasn't sure why she told him that, it was embarrassing, but he had told her he spent a week unconscious.
Brazil nodded at his offer,
"Oh yes sir I will do that then. I don't think my hair could stand another explosion," or rather she didn't want to get blown up again. Or sucked in a a tiny little wall safe again either. She never knew how scared she was of small spaces till then. She was not keen to experience that feeling again.
