Fat Tony's

[Zeltak]

Fat Alfonso was known for being quite the ladies man and Penguino was worried that he would cause a scene if he was rejected. However, it seemed Lady Giovanni handled the situation well since she was currently heading towards the table the Capo was sitting at.

Lady Giovanni slowly waved her right hand towards the Capo and in return he smiled as he nodded towards the table, signaling her to sit down.

"Lady Giovanni..." Fat Penguino the Capo Bastone began addressing her. "I'm delightful to meet you once again, how unfortunate your arrival is yet again due to business and not for pleasure."

"Si, Capo. It is very unfortunate." She replied quietly. "However, work is work and it is my duty to fulfill my part of the job." The Lady continued now with a more determined tone.

"Ah of course Lady Giovanni, I respect that." The Capo replied, slightly aroused by the woman's show of strength.

"Now then, onto business..." The Capo's voice became more serious. "...so I have heard you have acquired information regarding a certain number of convoys that might prove to be very valuable to the Smokeones, si?"

"That is correct."

"Excellent. The Don is quite interested and in return for the information he offers both money and protection. But as I understand it you are more than capable of taking care of yourself, handling Fat Alfonso over there proved that claim. So instead a larger sum of money will be presented to you, the negotiations will take place upstairs were we can discuss in peace."

As the Capo finished his last sentence he began rising up from his chair and so did Lady Giovanni. He signaled her to follow him and they went upstairs to the higher level of the bar. Walking through the numerous doors he finally stopped and turned right. Before entering the door he knocked twice, swiftly and hard enough to ensure that the two people on the other side of the room could hear it.

"Step in." Was the only reply. The voice was humble yet powerful, it demanded respect but at the same time was willing to return it. It was The Don himself speaking.

As the Capo entered the room along with Lady Giovanni they were first introduced to a man called Fat Padrone. He was the Consigliere of the family, also known as 'The Adviser'. The consigliere is a close and trusted friend of the Don whose main job is to provide with advice in all important decisions made by the family. Additionally, he is responsible of representing the Don in important meetings both within their own family and other associates. The Don, the Capo and the Consigliere constitute a three-man ruling panel also known as 'The Administration'. During any business meeting, all three must be present.

After a quick hand shake with the Consigliere, Lady Giovanni is guided to the chair positioned opposite to the Don, the only thing in between them is a large working desk made out of oakwood tinted with a dark-brown color. On the desk lies a golden pen on-top of a few stacked papers that resembled a contract of some sort.

"Very well. Let us begin with the business." The Consigliere said and sat down on a chair positioned near the left wall, the Capo proceeded to do the same...
