On the surface of things Reeve was a simple, plain craftsman and a member of House Garuda, the centre of industry and commerce in Astoria. On the surface, at least.
For simmering away underneath that mild-mannered man lies someone who is curious about a great many things, and not just the latest Smithing techniques or Civil Engineering designs. Curious enough to have lead him to leading somewhat of a double life. He is not only a member of House Garuda, but also a shadow member of House Diabolos. Because shadowy seems to be the name of the game, and Reeve is still a betting man inside.
Hiding in plain sight is what he is best at, and it does not take long to find his kin. Not even an apparent merchant, but a sailor who is all too loudly discussing a haul from his trip within a port-side tavern in Bankside. A certain old dog had pointed him in this direction, and Reeve, the canny cat had put two and two together. He sits down, orders drinks for the table and offers up a game of dice to his four companions. A few hours later three have left with their tails between their legs, leaving him and the other man. The Diabolos House representative.
He places a few Gil on the table, leaning forwards as he does so with a lowered voice, "I'm not exactly interested in deep sea treasures, though I'm sure they're quite lovely. I do however have 500 tokens and am looking for an exchange..." Reeve sits back and places his dice in his cup before adding, "Your turn to bet."

The formerly loud and rowdy sailor gives him a sharkish grin, eyes twinkling in a appreciation. '500 tokens' was always a key implication - a very specific, very important number. "You're just as clever as I've heard, Mr. Tuesti..."
There is a bag slung with its strap across his chest, and he reaches in as if to pay for their little round of dice. Indeed, the gil are brought up but his fingers also snagged on a length of cord, well cared for braided leather dotted with cut gem beads - garnet so dark it's like a drop of blood and onyx as black as night. "500 tokens and its yours. I'm sure a man like you can find where to use it. Just don't lose it."
//Be sure to adjust the number of tokens and add a note about the market pass. Check the boards carefully for any changes.
