[Zed would keep to eavesdropping for a while. "Anette" - he stores the name away for later, even if it's likely he won't remember it. And he listens, even if Zed wasn't normally much of a listener.
Such would be the arrangement for a few more attempts at gathering information. After that, though, Zed proposed that they split up - so far, it seemed that no one knew anything about how they'd gotten here. Even he could manage to keep confirming that no one knew anything. And maybe, covering more ground, they'd find whoever was really responsible that much faster.
If not, they'd see one another around. At the least, their exploring together was enough to confirm Zed's impression that Cape Beryl was not a big town.]
...so I am sure you will see me again.
[With that, he'd split off to go his own way - to talk to people, to poke around, and maybe get down to the business of finding the way back to St. Centaur.]
