Strict confidentiality is maintained with each client (and potential recruits). Argus will not operate on both sides of any given conflict. Argus is not a profit-driven organization. Typically, it asks for a favor in return for the desired information. Sometimes the payment is gold, more often it is not. The exact details of each transaction are finalized before anyone commits to anything. | |||
You do not make initial contact Argus directly. Since discretion is of the utmost importance, Argus occasionally sends out a private invitation to [[Ruler]]s only. The ruler remains the only point of contact with Argus throughout the duration of the relationship. Should a ruler vacate their position for whatever reason, that relationship will have to be re-established. | |||
