King keeps struggling inside the barrel until minutes turn to hours and Kate comes back. She says, "Alright, it's time for my shift now. What's up with old kingy boy here?"
I cant get anything good out of him. He claims they are decentralized and he doesnt know any ring leaders. Also he thinks he is going to be rescued for sure.

Kate rubs her chin and says, "Yeah, I was afraid of that. I knew the gang was decentralized but seeing as the name "King" popped up a couple of times, I hoped he'd know something. Guess I was wrong. Well, the way Rat Liver works, there may be guys coming to the rescue or there may not be. It all depends on the particular section he rules over and how popular he is. Either way we should be on our toes. Get some rest. Maybe spending the night in the barrel will loosen him up enough to talk."
That night there were no issues. King didn't talk but no one came for him. What is Tomoe going to do next morning?
Tomoe gets up on the morning and sends her retainers to as inconspicuously as possible, gain Intel on the Rat Liver gang. She armors up and goes to meet with Kate and King.

The retainers go off to gather intel. Meanwhile she finds Kate leaning on a nearby wall and the barrel is where you saw it last night. Kate sees you and says, "You up? I've been trying to get him to talk but it ain't working. Nobody showed up to rescue him though and now he's gone full quiet and only answers questions with yeses and nos and maybes."
Kate says, "We can try that but then we'll probably need a bigger team. King's hideout is in the slums and it won't be easy fighting there with just the two of us." She then looks frustrated and says, "The slums are like a library when it comes to information on gangs. Even if he doesn't know who the head Rat is, he has to know something useful or interesting."
Kate says, "I think we should try and get him to talk. If nobody came for him, then nobody should come for him. If we were dealing with Ao Oni or Bronzor, I would have expected an attack but Rat Liver is disorganized so I don't think anyone's going to come."
Kate walks back to the drum and kicks it over, dropping King. She then picks him up by his collar and says, "Alright. I'm done playing nice." She then jams his head under sewer water for a bit. Then she pulls him back out and says, "Talk. You rule the slums so you should know something useful. Spill it!" The orc stutters out, "I don't know anything." "Not good enough." Kate then dips his head in the water again.
The orc still isn't cooperating. Either he is really strong willed or he really doesn't know anything interesting.
Tomoe will try to help Kate's intimidation by saying to King. This doesnt have to continue if you just cooperate with is. Just tell us anything you can about the local rat liver gangs.

Kate kicks the orc a few more times trying to get him to spill but he goes unconscious. Kate sighs and says, "This is not working. This guy is stubborn as hell."
Tomoe replys devilishly Then I suppose I've played nice for too long. She walks over to King and says Tell me little king, if you had to loose a finger, which one would you miss the most?
Let's start with the little finger then shall we? Kate, would you do the honors of see how far kings finger can bend before it breaks? Tomoe's expression has gone from bright and smiling to dark and piercing.

Kate cracks her knuckles and says, "Been waiting to do this all day." She bends the finger of the squirming King and... CRACK. The finger goes limp as King howls in pain. The skin around the broken finger goes blue and begins swelling as blood pools under the skin.
King says, "Alright Alright, I'll tell you something. Some days ago I saw a protly guy, dwarvish. He looked like some kinda rich merchant or something. Definitely not the likes of us. Yet he was talking freely to a guy from Rat Liver, not my section. The portly guy showed the sign of Rat Liver. I don't know what he's doing in our gang but go after him."
Tomoe smiles See, that wasnt so hard was it? And yet...Tomoe frowns and furrows her brow, her face scrunching up in contemplation and disappointment, I cant help but feel your still ot telling us something. If you please.. She motions for Kate to break the next finger.
