Bolvar claps his hand on Calthoric's shoulder. He is smiling brightly. "A little bit of work never hurt anyone. If you know nothing of sailing, you will know something after working on a ship. I will work on your ship captain. I am a slow man, and those ropes look confusing. I will probably only be good at lifting heavy stuff. Just tell me what I must do."

The wizard places his hand upon his face with a slight shake of his head, thumb resting just under his cheek bone, fore and middle fingers massaging the area between his dark eyebrows and up to his hair line.

"Reckless Rasellia... reckless. First of all hun, you need to keep your knickers out of a bunch, and let the nobleman work his craft. If you are incapable of comprehending that which is going around you, you need to keep...you need to hold your tongue, and leave all the talky talk stuff to the adults. m'kay?" Turning his attention to the dwarf.

"Alrighty there Cap'n. You need to keep your bloomers from creeping as well. There will be no brig for anyone here. You forget, we have a third option. Work, Pay, or Walk. I for one, am loathe to participate in manual labor, and not too fond of sea travel, especially aboard a boat with a crew known for its love of underground holes and stone. Who are purported to sink like them, and are not notoriously known for their fondness of water. Calthoric, makes a good point. We don't know that you weren't responsible for the sackin of this town." Thorael sighs and takes a deep breath. "That being said, since my companions here seem set on a three hour tour, and have the collective wisdom of the local villiage idiot, i will consider tagging along. I need assurances that no harm will come to my Valet. His muscle and arm will be at your disposal. He makes an exceptional tea. If you, however, deem that you'd rather have my muscle, over my arcane might... rest assured that i would die before i cast a single spell in defense of this vessal. Alternatly, we can negotioate my spell casting fees in private, or we could simpley trade passage for full use of my mental prowess..."

Looking over at calthoric, a smile and a nod, and... a sudden realization. "Wait a moment... you're not a noble?!"

The captain sighs after hearing Thoreal's words, "What can you offer me besides your muscle swabbing decks?"

Rasellia's eyes narrow at the elf's condescension. "Is it so much to ask for a little respect from you two?" She shares her icy glare with the rogue. "I am bound by no service to either of you, so do not take my skills for granted; I'm not about to gloat about my powers, but by God, they'll save you one day." She stabs a finger at the goblin. "Hell, I saved your servant, didn't I Thorael? And that doesn't usher the smallest bit of gratitude from you? Rest assured, if either of you continue to flaunt your supposed intelligence over either Bolvar or myself, you'll find yourself one healer short, and several wounds too many."

"Well... I'm glad to see your superior observation skills can detect even the most blatant condescension. You want respect?! Perhaps you should try using that lump between your ears for MORE THAN JUST A PERCH FOR YOUR HELMET BEFORE YOU OPEN THAT PIE HOLE!! I... I..i" Thorael takes a deep calming breath, as he looks about the eyes fixed on him. "Listen to us... there is something wrong here. I have felt it since... " the mage makes sure to catch Rasellia's eye however enraged they may be"... just before we returned to the INN and found it ablaze. It's a palpable darkness...no, a chaos. I... apologize Lady Rasellia. We must make haste to Nesmee. Captain, if it's deck swabbing you wish of me, so be it, but i think you'll find i can be of better use... we can discuss it further once underway, but i will follow any just order you give. Just get us out of here..." Exasperated and drained, Thorael leans heavily against the rail, sighs deeply and stares at his feet.

The Captain roars, "Buckle down the 'ac'es boy's we be sailing to Nesmee." With that you see the deckhands role into action pulling up the sails and bringing up the anchor. Soon, you feel the breeze running past your cheeks as the boat starts heading down wind and down river. "Dwack, s'ow t'ese folk to their 'ammocks and then began s'owing t'em 'ow w'at to do."

Dwack takes you below deck, he gives you a hammock from a box labeled extra hammocks and show you how to tie it to the ship. You are at the back of the ship. In the middle of the ship is filled with boxes, crates, and hanging dried meat. The ship smells like an armpit that has never been washed on a hot sunny day in a small confided space. You can hear some banging from the front of the ship.

She's taken aback by her comrade's rather unsightly outburst, and hopes that she didn't make that much of an ass of herself. Nonetheless, she feels compelled to tear right back into him with the words she's had stowed away for a while, but thinks better of it, finding some truth in what Thorael trails off with.
She follows Dwack below deck and listens to his instructions. The sight - not so much the smell - of meat makes her stomach growl audibly, and she turns to him. "..Dwack... is there... is there any way I could get some food? Buy it even? I haven't eaten for two days... And does the ship usually make that sound?" she queries, referring to the banging.

[crimson77]

"Aye, Las, we lost our cook, so all we begot is some dried meat and gruel. T'ere be a pot of cold gruel over t'ere. 'Elp your self. As for t'e banging, tis our prisoner. I be sure you'll get a gander later. Eat up and t'en make yer selfs useful. T'e decks need moping, food needs cooking, sails need sewing, find somet'ing you'er good at and do it." With that Dwack grabs a chuck of meat and climbs out back onto the deck.

The healer eyes the pot of cold gruel with a look of pure disgust, but her stomach rumbles once more at the thought of sustenance... of ANY kind. Shuddering, she serves herself a heaping bowlful, looking about warily before passing a hand over the serving, her pupils glowing green for a moment.

He looks to Thoreal with a resigned smile and flashes a wink. "Another tale for another time Master Thoreal." He states simply as he listens to the captain. Following them to below decks he retrieves his hammock and sets it up as instructed. He then helps himself to some of the gruel. Eating it as if it was as the finest meal. Upon hearing Dwacks explanation of the banging Calthoric's curiosity is peaked. "If you will excuse me Master Dwack I find my self in need of the privy. I assume like most ships it is down by bilge? With that he head further into the bowels of the ship to find where the prisoner is located.

[Chu]The gruel does not have any poison

[Wild/everyone else]

The gruel tastes like a dirty sock filled with sand, it is barely eatable, but it does fill you hungry stomachs. Venturing closer to the front of the ship, where you can hear the banging, you make your way through the cluttered boxes and crates until you see the prisoner. He is clad in chains, on attached to each foot, hand, and neck. He appears to be human, with a beard growing. He is naked except for a dirty loin cloth. He does not appear to notice you coming closer.

Thorael lets gilly test for poison sample the gruel before consuming it himself. Eating in quiet, he follows as the grand tour is provided. The prisoner seems to break him a bit from his melancholy... er sorta. "Don't talk to him. He may be a good guy wrongfully imprisoned by the dwarves who are really pirates. That's definitely a problem we don't need to know about right now."

Bolvar tries the gruel. He seems to move it around his mouth a bit before finally getting the courge to swallow it down. "Eh, I have had worse. Oh hey Thorael, that conversation was confusing. Is Calthoric really a noble? Also, do we have to work on the ship? All that talking place really fast."

Thorael looks at Bolvar with genuine sympathy in his eyes. "It's hard to say friend, its hard to say. It was clear that Cal was using some kind of ruse, but why Rasellia would claim he was not a noble, i do not know. Perhaps his denouncement is yet another bluff, perhaps not. It's very difficult to say. All i know for sure, is yes, we are to work for our passage... and the sooner we can be off this rat infested death trap, the better."

Overhearing the conversation between Bolvar and Thoreal Calthoric glances over his shoulder as looks to Bolvar. "No Master Bolvar, I am not of noble blood. The deception was needed." Leaving the comment hang in the air like a bad odor, he looks to the prisoner and sighs at Thoreal's explanation. It now gives him an out if any useful information was to be gotten from him. Ignoring Thoreal's warning he questions the prisoner knowing he cares not for his freedom deserved or otherwise. "What is your bounty and why was it placed?"

Thoreal goes about his business, quickly leaving the prisoner to the bleeding hearts of the company. The prisoner had it right. He basically didnt really care. What ever laws these humans followed would surely sort this out. Dispatching Gilly to set up his hammock, and prepare his area the mage heads above deck to seek out the Captain.

Rasellia wolfs down her bowlful of gruel, nearly gagging at the bland, slimy coldness oozing down her throat. Finishing it off quickly, she helps herself to another half-bowl, definitely not relishing the taste, but feeling the need to stave off her hunger as long as possible so she wouldn't have to dig into this bilge once more.
Once she finished choking down her meal, she sets up her things around one of the designated hammocks, taking the time to clean her sword and wipe down her ashen face, sootied from the fire and ash of the burning town. Once she's made herself a bit more presentable, she takes off her armour, deciding it would be a bit too cumbersome for deckhand work, and sets off in search of Dwack or the captain.

As the others leave and as you are about to turn away, the condemned man turns back to you and says, "Wait noble, maybe we can form a deal. You seem to want or need some information. While I cannot directly give you this information, I can set you up with a...um...friend, that can help you. What do you say, you help me escape, I help you find your way?"

[Everyone Else]

The captain smiles as he sees you up on the deck ready to work. "Aye, Make yourselves useful, there is food that needs to be made, decks washed, sails repaired, etc."

You see a few dwarves cleaning what look to be large metal pipes with wood at the other end. They seem to be cleaning them very carefully.

[Knowledge check: Architecture and engineering or History DC 15]
These metal pipes are Archibus, or firearms that propel metal rocks at high velocities with nonmagical explosions.

Bolvar moves about the ship carefully. He is still very confused by all the new things he has never seen before. He finally comes to the conclusion that washing the deck is probably all he is good for. Bolvar begins to wash the deck, and slowly picks up speed at it. He eventually begins to race to see how fast he can move around the deck "washing" it.

The days stretch on as you help out with the ship, taking watches, cleaning, and doing miscellaneous jobs. You look forward to having solid ground underneath your feet. You are now into the sea, you can only vaguely see the shore on either side. You look forward to seeing nesmee.

"I will think about your offer as we have many days aboard this ship." With that said he leaves the prisoner and returns topside. He knows little about sailing but knows a lot about ropes and knots. He pays close attention to the men attending to the riggings of the ship as well as attaching the sails. Calthoric knows it will only come in handy all too soon to know how to untie certain knots and though he recognized a few of the ones used on the ship he was more then eager to observe and learn to tie the ones he had not.

Going to use this to allow me to add ranks in the use rope slot

During his off duty times he banters and makes small talk with the crew getting a feeling for the captain and the dwarven race in general as he has encountered few. Feeling comfortable with the crew and able to pick up on the subtleties he approaches the captain. "Captain if I may trouble you with some questions. I have traveled below decks looking for the privy and stumbled across your prisoner. I am to understand you said you were taking the "bounty" to somewhere. Bounty hunting has always been an interest of mine and I am sure you are notable in the trade. May I inquire about the price of the bounty and who and where you plan on delivering him to? It is a profession I have thought about pursuing but making contacts in such an area is difficult.

The Captain smiles as you bring up the topic of a bounty. "Aye, I be bring t'is lass to the 'Ouse of Nord, w'ere 'e will stand trial for 'is crimes. Ye reputation is w'at gets ye jobs. Ye got to start small, finding some cut purses and getting ye name big. Sometimes you 'ear t'ings in bars, sometimes, on the streets, sometimes ye join a crew bring in a big game."

[crimson77]

After a few more days of moping decks, repairing sails, and helping out around the ship you see Nesmee approaching. The high walls and towers remind you of how much you have missed this place. Soon the boat bumps up against the dock. "T'anks for ye e'lp, be seeing ye now." Is all the captain says as you exit the ship. The dwarves with their metal rods escort the prisoner away and you now stand on the ground a few meters away from the docks.

Pleased to finally be back on dry land, the wizard takes in a deep breath of the salty sea air. Smugly looking about the port scene before him he smiles. It was no small task to make him self as small as possible on that vessel. Staying out of the way was entirely more important that helping, although he did what he could. He had avoided most of his companions on the journey, deeming it better to think things through. Clear his mind. The questions would be answered soon enough. Turning about, he spots Bolvar and Calthoric looking about similarly to him. Off to the side stands Rasellia. Whelp... no time like the present

"So... everyone enjoy their little cruise? Rasellia, i presume enough time has passed that your...um, little monthly visitor has come and gone? In a better mood are we??" The mage chuckles a bit, showing not malace, but a desire to break the ice. "Whell... since you've adopted the mantle of moral compass for the company, where to?"

Calthoric looks, mouth agape, at Thoreal and covers a slight smile."If you all will excuse me but a moment, I have some unfinished business with the captain. Captain if you can wait one morment!" Calthoric quickly runs to catch up with the departing dwarves.

Pulling the captain aside and in a hushed tone he speaks to the captain. "Captain, if I could trouble you for a favor though I know this is a steep one to ask. May I purchase your bounty from you? I wish to make a name as I stated earlier in your trade. I am sure even in your early beginnings of your most illustrious career as a bounty hunter you received a hand from a veteran. I ask you for this assistance. Also if you would supply me with the directions to the house of Nord would be most helpful."

Rasellia narrows her eyes as Calthoric runs forward and whispers. What's he scheming now...? She scowls to herself, not really hearing Thorael's comment (thank all that is holy) for a few moments. Snapping out of her thoughts, she turns to look at him, blinking in surprise. "I'm... no leader, Thorael... but we have to get Solace somewhere safe. Perhaps there is a diviner or wizard powerful enough to discern where the rest of it is?" She pulls out the rod, looking at it. "Unless you can tell us where...?"

Calthoric is constantly looking around from the prisoner to his group and back to the captain. His expression is displaying displeasure.

"I did not realize he was that important of a bounty. Kidnapping a nobleman though a terrible crime does not seem to warrant such a bounty. Unless, of course, the nobleman is still missing. Either way I will not ask you to trust me with a bounty of such price nor can I afford to buy it from you. I did speak with the bounty and he did mention an accomplice here in town. Perhaps an arrangement can be made to ensnare the second? I am sure there is an equal bounty or at least significant one enough to make it worth your time."

Calthoric allows a slight smile to crease his lips at the captains question.

"I did not get enough information out of the encounter. However he said he would lead me to this friend if I helped him escape so that i might acquire some information that I am after. I am not going to guarantee that there is profit to be made, but if he has a friend here it is a good bet they had a hand in his exploits. If you let me take him as or at least make it look like I am aiding his escape at night before taking him to claim the bounty we might be able to get both what we want. You more bounty and I information. However we'll need to work together on this as well as keep it quiet. What say ye captain?"

Calthoric takes another look around then eyes the prisoner and flashes him a quick wink and a slight nod when he is sure the dwarves are not looking.

"Well I cannot prove that I am or I am not in league with the prisoner so that is going to be something for you to decide. As far as our first meeting, perhaps if I had a loyal crew of men behind me honesty would have been the first course of action as the men would have insured my safty. I did not deny my ruse when it was exposed, perhaps that says something perhaps it does not. I must return to my group and my plan would give you a chance to double your purse.

Thorael quickly nods in agreement with Bolvar. "Right you are Bolvar, right you are." Turning to Rasellia, then back to Bolvar "It is critical friends that we speak not of this to anyone until we better know whats going on. It may bring danger to us, or to this whole city. Rasellia, you claim no desire to lead, yet you have been reluctant to follow. Your inability to follow along with Calthoric's ruse on the boat could have jeopardized all of our safety had those dwarves been... full of malice. You cannot tell what lies in a mans heart with a single meeting, nor by the garb they wear or the post they hold. I beg of you not to speak that name, or of its owner until we can find out more.

The passer by smiles and nods, you can smell the faint smell of ale on his breath. He opens a toothless mouth and pointing down the street says, "Yes SIR, there is the Silver Steed down the main road (his finger points out the road) about a fourth of a mile. I would be happy to take you there." His hands now greedily cupped open awaiting the copper.

Calthoric turns from the captain after an illustrious and practiced bow and then returns to the group as Thoreal is talking to a by stander. "Yes, the Silver Steed Inn will do quite nicely as I need a bath and my hair is beginning to look the the home of some bird."

The wizard digs out 3 copper and hands them to the passer by. "Thank you. Here's 2 copper for your trouble, and a third for a bath. I would think that we could manage to find this Silver Stag on our own, thank you very much." Thorael looks over to Calthoric who's returning from the Captain "Silver Steed, yes yes. Silver Steed. Thank you again my man now be on your way". Waiting patiently as the man finally travels out of ear shot, Thorael turns back to the group. "So the Silver Steed sound good to you folk? I say we head there, and get a lay of the land. There's still plenty of daylight remaining. I need to acquire some additional gear, and see what kind of libraries are available to traveling Scholars such as my self..." The wizard shoots a knowing wink to Calthoric while "scratching" his elven ears, and then scans the rest of the group for direction.

You file down to the Inn on the dirt road. You see the many beggars that dominate the docks district disperse as you get further into town. You see the Silver Stead Inn, a large inn with several stories a head. There are numerious shops surrounding the Inn. Next to the inn on the right there is a sign for "Grack's Weepons" which you think is a weapon store with a misspelled name, a wooden statue of a half-orc stands outside the door holding an ax up high. On the other side of the inn there is a shop which displays armor in the glass plated window. Across from the inn there is a general store and what looks to be an magic shop.

As you enter the Silver Steed, your mouth starts to water with the aroma of cooking mutton. The common room is empty except for the bar keep washing tables. He smiles and nods in your direction as he clears a table.

I will not lead my life under a veil of secrecy when it is not needed, and others who try to force that veil upon me will have their own secrets revealed. Besides, HAD the dwarves been malicious, don't you think they'd be more likely to attack a rich noble than a skilled group of adventurers?" Shaking her head to Bolvar's fears, she adjusts her pack. "I won't be abandoning someone in need, even if it isn't alive per se. Throwing it in the ocean or hiding it somewhere is futile. You forget that our assailants can determine its location magically. Thorael is right though; we should keep this information to ourselves as much as possible, at least until we find someone we can trust who might be able to help us."

"I did not say it was a good ruse, but to throw Calthoric blatantly under the Ox Cart like that. Well... no good could have come from it. It would have been more wise to let it play out than to call a traveling companion a liar in front of total, and most likely hostile, strangers. They weren't.... lucky for us. I know Calthoric hasn't mentioned anything, but i know how you humans are. You trust much quicker than we elves, but you never forget a slight.

"Greetings, bartender. I see that your inn's name comes from more than the shininess of its namesake's scales. Hopefully you have room and board for myself and my fellow adventurers? We're in need of a good bed and better food."

The innkeeper smiles, "Good beds we have here. For a three gold per night I will rent out my suite to you four lads. It has four beds and I can bring in extra cots for ye servant and man-at-arms.

After you eat a hearty meal (remember to pay for it) you spent the afternoon apart. Calthoric, you hear rumors of the House of Nord is a not a reputable place, no specifics but something is not right there. You find out that the headmaster was kidnapped and later his body was found. After a Resurrection (http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/sovelior_sage/spellsPtoR.html#resurrection) spell he was brought back to life. He identified a man whom he put out a bounty on. A dwarvin ship recently has found this man and has recently docked.

Coming back to the inn, Calthoric you see the dwarvin captain sitting at one of the tables with a large tankyard of ale. He nods when you come in, as you approach the table he waves his has as if asking you to sit down. "'Ollo, I be 'aving suspicions t'at I 'ave t'e wrong man.

I as well as my friends I am sure will be willing to help you correct this error. Of course if you could better equip us for the task would be greatly appreciated. If not then of course a share of the purse will be expected. After all we are talking about keeping your well earned name clean." Calthoric motions for the others to join him at the table.

They change 100 gold per day for research rights, If you join their guild, the cost is waved, and depending upon your rank you can have access to restricted books.

The wised wizard finished his business with the weaponsmithy, not finding a bow to his liking (t'wasnt even elvish make), settled on a Crossbow, Longsword of dubious quality (again, not elvish), a dagger and some bolts. In the general store, the halfling Falalia was much more pleasant managing to aquire all of his needs without issue. He was particularly pleased that she had a child sized courtiers outfit that had been pass on by a lesser noble claiming she had used inferior thread. The fit on Gilly was a bit long, but would be tailored up nicely. The mage in the magic shoppe was less accommodating, although a much larger bastion of information. "Master Mage, you misunderstand me. I wish not to apprentice under you, but perhaps craft some scrolls, perhaps some trinkets which you could sell, and we could split the proceeds. Really i'm just looking to put some dialog along with my Profession:Shop Keep roll [ ;) ]. The Red Tower sounds like the place i'll need to start though... Join their guild you say.

"The red mage's guild, well, they are questing for knowledge to all arcane secrets.

Maybe even an efficient quiver or something of the like for my compatriots and myself. Items that would allow us to carry more then our usual capacity. Maybe some handy haversacks?"

The captain smirks and shakes his head at Calthoric's body language as if thinking to himself Talk is cheap, do you really think that I am going to give you any thing without proof. The captain sits and contimplates for a few more moments silently, "We will talk again once you find some information. I will return here in three days with some coins and see if you have any information for me."

In the meantime, Rasellia tries her best to make herself useful on some level. She heads to the closes church or missionary she can find, offering up prayers to God, having lacked the time to do so properly for days. Upon finishing her praying, feeling almost rejuvenated, she stands and approaches on of the acolytes, smiling softly. "Greetings there, young Sir. I was hoping you could direct me to this church's diviner; I have important questions I need to ask, and I think only God's assisstance will do the trick."

Hoping for a cleric of the knowledge domain or somesuch.

The acolyte points toward the man in robes kneeling before the alter. As you approach he stands up and smiles. "Oh dear child, how are you? How can I be of assistance?"

Bolvar follows the group to the inn, but from there becomes seperated. He has never been in a town so large before, and quickly becomes lost. He spends the rest of the day wondering from place to place taking in the sights of the city. Eventually he grows borde of wondering around and stops at a bar, any bar that he happens to be near. "Barkeep, your bring cheapest ale or mead, whatever its called. Bring lots of it, and keep it coming." Bolvar then spends the rest of the evening drinking and absorbing the city life around him. When its late in the night, Bolvar stumbles out of the bar and luckily back to the inn in a drunken haze.


How much will a night of drinking cost?

Meal consumed, business concluded, Thorael leaves two copper on the table. "Service was... adequate." Standing to leave, Thorael looks over to Calthoric and nods, then turns his attention to the dwarf. "Three days should be plenty. I shan't be surprised if we have the true culprit and any accomplice in our sights by then. I yearn for our next meeting nearly as much as my gold purse. Until then Captain..." Thorael bows slightly, motions to Gilly and Calthoric, departs the table, and exits the Inn. Once again outside, the shadows are getting long. Naught but a few more hours of daylight. Where in the blazes have those other two gotten off to. Pausing but a moment to see if Calthoric is indeed coming along, the wizards walks with a purpose. Destination... The Red Tower.

"Although i am throughly mortified of the prospect of Rasellia wandering around the city with our... little friend, i fear there's not much we can do. I only hope she can see the wisdom in my words. Bolvar can definitely take care of himself, and they both know where we're staying." Thorael begins to walk "I had considered sending Gilly here out to search for one, both, either, but i fear that this city is not nearly enlightened enough on the higher purpose of goblins, and really do fear for his safety when alone.

[ooc: the conversation with the dwarf occurred near the end of the day. I am going to move you a head to the next morning.]

Calthoric and Thoreal meet for a quick breakfast in the morning waiting for the rest of the party to join them. Bolvar finally stumbles down the stairs still drunk from the night before (1 gold for a night of drinking). You bang on Rasillia's door (however, she rose before you did to go to the temple). The three of you with Gilly in tow head off to the Red Tower. You follow the main road past the market place to the garden district and there rising out of the gardens is a blood red tower. As you approach you see guards cloaked in red armor with red swords standing at the door way. A mage, also in red, stands in the door way with a book. You see a man walk up to the mage exchange some coins and then enter the tower. You approach the mage looks to you and says."Greetings travelers, come to take the tour of the Red tower or are you a fellow colleague come to do research? The charge is 10 gold for a tour of the history of magic and 100 gold for a day of research. Please declare any magic items you are holding. If you are a mage come for research please demonstrate a cantrip."

Thorael turns about slightly confused as the sun shifts from one side of the sky to the other. Regaining his composure he looks at the guard mage. "I am Thorael, and these are my minions, my guardians.. Well i suppose companions would be a better term, and i am indeed a mage here to do some research. I understand that the Research fee is waived for members. Judging by my recent luck with bandits, i believe the protection of a Guild could be just what the shaman ordered. Are you recruiting, and if so... what can one of my skill expect from such membership, and what would the guild expect from me?"

The wizard with the book sighs, "So...you wish to seek membership with the guild. You will have to speak with recruiter Parcels, he can be found afternoons through the south tower entrance, you are at the north entrance. He will tell you what the guild is looking for and possible positions that you could apply for. There is a membership quest and a few years of classes before you can teach, depending upon your given abilities. If you have a certian area of intrest, maybe I can point you in the direction of a Wizard to aprentace under during your training. I am guessing that you are more intrested in feild work, given your company, than library research."

"Excellent, Excellent...until the afternoon then. Perhaps we should take the tour while we wait. Friends?" Turning back to the mage. "You wouldn't have a Family or group discount would you?"

The man scowls, "We do not offer a group discount or children without exceptional abilities enter. Do not touch anything," and then he looks at Gilly, "do not put anything in your mouth and enjoy your tour." The man takes 10 gold from each of you (including Gilly) and then lets you enter.

As you enter the tower and your eyes are taken in by the shear beauty of the place. There are tapestries of brilliant colors, artifacts displayed and all sorts of things you have no idea what they are. You see the entrence to the library a head with a similar wizard and guards surrounding the entrance. As you enter you hear a soft voice as see an Imp wearing a sliver collar, he smiles and says "Wellecome, I be ye tour guide on your journey through the ages of Magic. Our first stop will be the unenlightened time...." The imp drones on and on about this time in a squeaky voice.

You pass on through several other times and then you come to the Dark Age. The imp drones on about this age, Thoreal seems to be enthralled by this tour but the shear vast amount of information being conveyed by the Imp is overwhelming. Then something catches your attention on the next tapestry it is a sword with a handle with a star on it. The Imp continues its tirade "The Sword of Ages was reforged during this time to fight Vargul's armies to end the Dark Ages. The Sword was though to be destroyed or part of myth until this last year when the Pommel was found. It has now been cleaned up and on display..." You see the pommel of the sword suspended in the air next to the tapestry. The Imp moves on to the next piece of history....

Rasellia gives a nodding bow, waiting for the priest to gather his things. She keeps her swordhand on the pouch in which Solace rests, unable to shake an uneasy feeling. "Thank you, Father. I'm ready whenever you are." She remains standing.

Rasellia gives a nodding bow, waiting for the priest to gather his things. She keeps her swordhand on the pouch in which Solace rests, unable to shake an uneasy feeling. "Thank you, Father. I'm ready whenever you are." She remains standing.

The Priest leads you outside you start heading in the direction of the alarm. You can see a large Red Tower looming a head.

I am going to wait for Finn to post, things could be occurring at the same time.

Bolvar is still wondering around the town when he hears the alarm ringing. "What is that blasted racket? Didn't the elf say he was going that way? I bet that goblin put some priceless artifact in its mouth." Bolvar heads out for the tower.

[crimson77]

As Bolvar comes up upon the Red Tower he sees Rasellia following a priest. He decided to try to catch up to see he she knows what is occurring. As the two of you come closer to the tower, you see a side door open and six guards carrying what look to be bodies out into the alley way. They drop the bodies in a heap. You can hear loudly a small flying creature shouting, "That one was flipping a coin and it got a way from him setting off the alarm. I am done with these tours, twice this week and its not mid week yet." The guards enter back into the tower and you come up upon the three bodies drenched in water starting to wake up, they are your three companions. Bolvar catches up with Rasellia as she comes upon the bodies. The Priest says, "Child, let us not waist our time with idiots who are up to no good."

Rasellia gapes as the corpses (?) of her comrades (?) are dumped before her. Before she has a chance to enquire, the guards are gone. Hurriedly, she kneels down next to their crumpled bodies, checking their pulses to see if they still live.

Heal check: Taking 10, so that's 12... I think that's enough to check someone's pulse :P

Giving a grunt as she discovers they are, indeed, still alive, she straightens up as the priest comes over. "Unfortunately, Father, these two are my companions. It wouldn't do to leave them out here like this, though sometimes I wish..." Thinking for a moment of who had slighted her more, she gives...

Thorael groans and then stretches. Standing up, he rubs his back side. "Of all the..." Noticing they are not alone, he quickly begins to dust himself of. "MON PETITE CHIENNE" With the casting of his cantrip, the mage's robes begin to clean themselves. "Misunderstanding really. The wandering northern tribes of Ocalla have a tradition of throwing coin to highly entertaining troubadours that are preforming. A Form of... gratuity if you will. Our mentally challenged friend here, got a little too excited at all of the great knowledge being bestowed upon him, that i feel he got a little too "into" the moment." Thorael turns to Calthoric. "Bad Cal! Bad... you do not throw copper, silver, gold, platinum or electrum pieces at fine bits of art. In Fact, you dont throw anything at anything unless it's actively trying to kill you. Regardless of how entertaining you find them, or the narrator! You had better pray to which ever aspect of the god you deem appropriate that this little...scene, has no impact on my ability to gain membership in the guild." Thorael glares a moment at the nobleman, and then turns his attention back to Rasellia. "noticing" her associate, he feigns surprise "Oh... hello"

Calthoric groggily stands up and dusts himself off. As his senses return he quickly pulls a comb from its pocket and straitens his hair. He pays little attention and gives no acknowledgment to Thoreal's explination of events. Calthorics expression suddenly goes wide and begins to pat himself down as if searching all his belongings. Sighing when he finds his weapons and pack are still with him then growling harshly. "Those sonsof.....You bastards took my money pouch! Honorable mages my arse.

She breathes an inward sigh of relief; the priest's assertive insistance that he take the rod from her had made her a bit uneasy, but there was safety in numbers... right? "I'd be glad to have you two come along... provided you don't do anything to get yourselves in trouble. Are either of you hurt?"

The priests face darkens as Rasellia invites the other members of the party along. "Child, I do not think that we should concern your friends with priestly matters and lost items of the church. Let us go alone so that we can continue our discussion in private."

I've never had the knack for enchantments and the like. You should know that Rasellia claims elven heritage, and if true, she will be exceptionally hard to control. I wasn't aware that your god gave you the ability to wield such arcane power. You sure this really is a Priestly Matter??"

She sneers at Thorael's (non-magical) suggestion. Figures, he seems the type to always need precious proof for his hypotheses. "Fine, I'll prove the three of you wrong and do just that, Thorael. Then we can put this charade to rest."

Relieved that she actually is entertaining his notion, Thorael glances at bolvar and shakes his head no. Casting his spell M'ENTENDRE MES AMI Covering his mouth with his right hand, he points at Rasellia and wispers.

"Continue to concentrate, my spell will allow us to speak without being heard.

Keeping his hand over his mouth he lowers his left slightly, pointing at the pouch containing Solace again the mage wispers

"If you have anyway to break that enchantment on her, nows the time to do it. Especially since we may have found your Pommel"

A wisper comes back to Thoreal, "If I do, I risk exposure. Even know as I speak to you there is the fear that I will be noticed. It tis good news that you have found my Pommel, for that can sheild my presence from others. I hope that your spell will shield my communications. Bring the pommel to me quickly."

The Priest changes direction and heads south (to P11) as Cal blocks his path. Rasellia still following in tow. "You do not scare me. We can find another way. Come along child, do not listen to these dirty men. We have important matters today."

As Calthoric moves closer and enters into the priest's personal space, the priest reacts by pushing Calthoric back a little [AoO] [roll0]. The attack was more of a slap, akin to one you would see on a playground, to show the thief where he boundaries were (no damage). "Stay away from us you filthy bastard.

Seeing the torment and indecision in Rasellia's eyes, and both Calthoric and Bolvar's need for action, Thorael attempts one last time to reason with the chosen of god. "Again, friar, i point out the limits to enchantments of that nature...observe" Turning to Rasellia, he continues.

"Rasellia, if you wish to go with him alone, that is fine. We only fear for your safety, but you're a big girl and can make your own decisions. If you deem it safe, enchantment or no then so be it... We have, however, some very important additional information that may apply to those discussions. Since the priest didn't say you need to go right now, surely you can give us 5 minutes of your time before you go... you can then decide if this new information is worth sharing with the priest. 5 Minutes?"

When the priest slaps away Calthoric, Bolvar fully draws his sword. The only thing stopping him from attacking the priest is the fact that Thorael told him to wait twice. "Watch it priest. You are on thin ice."

[crimson77]

"Oh small words from a big man. How dare you think to attack an unarmed priest in broad daylight. You should put that sword down before you get any dumber." You can see that some people seem to be scattering and others watch what is occurring but try to mask their selective attention.

"Bolvar! Stop this madness! I've watched your back in combat before, so trust me when I say that violence is NOT the answer!" She turns to the priest, frowning. "Father, whether or not you've placed a spell on me, I DO wish to go with you to learn more of this matter.

The half-elf approaches the rest of the party, arms crossed as well. "I hope you weren't just bluffing, Thorael... doing what you and the others have done is in violation of so many laws, sectarian, spiritual, AND personal..."

Raising an eyebrow, the mage looked befuddled for just a moment. "We violated what...laws..wha??" Shaking his head the stumbles "Nevermind, you know... i don't even want to know." He glances over rasellia's shoulder to take in the deminour and stance of the priest. "Here will be fine, we're out of ear shot, and no... i wasn't just bluffing." Thorael gives her a scandalous glare. He then glances at each of the companions in turn, before settling on the chosen of god. "I... I cannot break the enchantment the priest has lain upon you. I have not prepared the appropriate magics. You are in danger. While not a truely evil act, corupting and removing free will... isn't good. You're overwhelming desire to accompany this priest to discuss solace in private is the work of magic, *not* faith, and while i cannot prevent you from going i can offer advice. Advice from one ...from many who would call you friend if you would but let us. Faith is pure. Men.. are not. I do not question your faith. I do not question the faith itself. I do question the intentions of this priest. His willingness, his... eagerness... to strip you of your will concerns me greatly. You are in danger. You should be on your highest guard when you inevitably follow him, and have your private discussions. We will let you go, but i cannot promise for how long the conversation will remain... private. With that being said... Solace ask but one thing from us. Do not expose him. Against My council... against solace's request, and without regard to his safety or that of... existence (if his tale is to be believed) you showed him to this priest. I do no know where this abbot intends on taking you, but do not put us, solace or anyone else in further danger by taking the rod with you. Your urge, and desire to discuss him can be satisfied with out solace present. Know that through my whisper spell he was able to convey to me his fear, and that he cannot communicate with you mentally without removing his protections. Spoken word was impossible with the priest so near at anything more than a wisper. Allow me to protect him, and shield him. Please help me undo the damage that has already been done, and you have my word... if it is agreeable to Solace i will return him to you when you have completed your discussions, and are back to your old self... let me protect him, give him to me... and as for my information, we've located the next piece"

Rasellia blinks at the mage's - exceedingly rare - apparent genuinity. She pauses for a moment, considering his words. "Another piece, you say... that might grant Solace more powers, or more clues as to what it can do... hmm..." Changing tracks with her train of thought for a moment, she eyes Thorael good and hard. "As for the idea of friendship... from the moment I healed your servant up until now, you've done little but insult my abilities while doing little constructive work yourself. My actions might not have been agreeable with you since we've met, but they were certainly nothing to warrant your scorn. You've given me no reason to trust you, other than you haven't physically stabbed me in the back." She sighs irritably and looks back at the priest. "Admittedly, I find the Father's insistance on me travelling with him alone is unsettling... yet he's done nothing more than call you names. Does that treatment sound familiar, Thorael? Perhaps if my friends hadn't made such a spectacle of themselves, he would be more open to discussion. What were you doing that got you thrown on your faces like a bunch of children, anyway?"

Bolvar looks at the priest, and then at Rasellia. "Anyone that uses magic to force someone into doing something they would not do is evil. It's no different then using a sword or knife to enforce your way. It was the priest that first used magic to control you." Bolvar gestures at Calthoric and Thorael. "I will not speak for them, but I was simply trying to protect you."

Thorael nods in agreement with Bolvar. "Concern for all our safety, Solace included is the primary driving force here. As to why we found ourselves tossed into an alley, well its a lengthy and quite humerous tale for another time. Right now, our peril is far too perilous. Trust is not Respect. Respect is not friendship. Each of these are foundations that the others are built upon. Not stabbing you in the back is a very trustworthy thing. Genuine truth and frank honesty... none of my words have been false. Both trustworthy things. I apologize if your abilities fail to impress me, but i equate your asking for the power to heal to Bolvar asking his father to slay the big bad orc for him. I would be grateful for both, but neither really garner much respect. Respect for his father...sure. Respect for your god, of course. It's because you don't do it yourself that i can also understand your inability to comprehend the focus and dedication it takes to wield the mysteries of the universe. To see that which I've done. Its no matter, it should come in time. Friendship... well i can understand why you humans would rush such a thing, but it needs time to grow. It needs a solid foundation. Again, this is not really the time to discuss such philosophical things. The peril after all. This is the second time you've risked our safety by confiding in complete strangers. And do no tell me of his faith or his garb. They do not make the man. I do not think these actions were malicious, but i do deem them fool hardy. I do not, however, think that this time will end as pleasantly as the dwarves did. Do not chance it. Do not risk the safety of Solace and of all these people by taking him with you. Leave him with us. Leave him with me, and we will keep him safe..."

The half-elf narrows her eyes in preparation to respond, but is interrupted by the priest. Turning to him, she nods. "Yes Father, just a moment." Turning back to the group, she gives a stiff nod. "I'll be at the inn when this is over. Whether or not you want to meet me there is up to you." She turns on her heel and heads back over to the priest. "Sorry to keep you waiting."

[crimson77]

The priest nods to Thoreal as Rasellia joins him and they start to walk north. "Child, you really should find some more holy company, you never know what the sewer brings in. I would hate for you to loose your faith. Remember the teachings, tis easier to loose one's faith than it is to gain it in the first place. The world can be a dark place."

"You hope to return to the Inn when this is over you mean." Calthoric watches as Rasellia and the priest walk off. When he is sure they are out of ear shot he turns back to the group. "We do not know the intentions of the cloth in this town but to be on the safe I think it is wise to not let them have two pieces of Solace. The coin that i tossed at the pommel was a test of the security measures in place. I believe if I can gain access to the mage tower I should be able 'borrow' the pommel to insure its safety. Do either of you think you will be able to assist me in gaining access? I have no more money as the damn thieves took my gold so I can not purchase another tour. If we hurry we also might be able to get there before the trap resets saving me from having to disable it."

She follows, but frowns. "Unfaithful they may be, Father, but they're still my comrades. They may get themselves in trouble sometimes, but I still garner respect for them..."

Thorael stands there with his mouth agape. Looking from Bolvar to Cal, he just shakes his head. Placing a hand on Clathoric, the mage mutters some arcane words, and the Nobleman disappears. "I'm not sure why you're bothering, but you have 7 minutes." Walking away, he wispers to the group. "Protect her Solace... Protect her and protect yourself. She will not be able to resist them without your help. Pray to whom ever you deem fit that we can survive the coming storm"


Gah this sites been brutal last few days. Thorael will head to the Magic shoppe to perform his Profession:Shop Keep duties, and then return to the red tower in the late afternoon to seek admittance.

[crimson77]

Rasellia and the Priest continue weaving through streets, Rasellia begins to seem confused as to where they are going, the route seems almost random and she soon is not sure if she could retrace her steps. They finally come to a warehouse and the priest knocks upon the door several times in a almost musical beat. A loud bang is heard and then a acolyte opens the door. The room is large filled with boxes and other assorted common goods. A priest in ornate robes stands in the center of the room and 6 acolytes stand near the door. As Rasellia enters, an acolyte slams shut the door and latches it. The Head priest smiles as Rasellia enters and says, "Child, you must be tired, you are among friends here, feel free to take off your armor and lay down your blade. A warm bath has been prepared for you in the next room." He points to a small adorning room with a curtain drawn. There is a large feast set out on the table next to the room. "We know you must be tired searching for ancient church relics. We have prepared food for you to eat. Come rest, you must be weary. Take your bath and then we will eat. An acolyte can shine your weapons and armor. I do look forward to seen this church relic"

Calthoric watches the disinterested Thoreal turn and walk away with a surprised look though none could see through his apparent invisibility. Quickly he moves to the enterance of the mage tower and waits for another tour to begin. He follows the tour until once again reaching the pommel and quickly goes to work on disabling the trap. When he is sure it is sufficiently disabled grabs the pommel quickly tucking it under his clothing.

Another tour soon begins, and the tour takes the group through many of the same areas. Coming to the pummel, Calthoric just barely bypasses the trap and grabs the pummel. Nothing happens when he takes the pummel. However, he realizes that the spell might run out before he can safely escape. The group has moved on a head and he can hear a tour coming with the Imp starting to talk about the sword and how the pummel was found.

Before being led into the warehouse, Rasellia stays her ground and shakes her head, sword hand resting on Solace's pouch. "I can't help but question our venue, Father; why a warehouse? And why so far from the church? I trust you, Father, but you make it difficult..."

She wouldn't just let herself be drawn into some seedy warehouse, alarm bells are ringing more than ever :P

[crimson77]

"Child, this is where the father works. Often dangerous items come into our hands for cataloging. We take every precaution possible. Would you rather have the large church destroyed because he found a switch on an item that sparked an explosion. We would rather have that happen where he could not harm anyone else."

Calthoric proud of his accomplishment realizes that he is running out of time. Hearing the upcoming group he quickly rushes to meet with them, breathing a sigh of relief that he does not recognize the imp escort. Calthoric moves to the back of the group. Satisfied no one is looking he intentionally bumps into another tour member breaking his invisibility spell. Ruffling out his cloths he looks to the tour member with an apologetic look. "Oh excuse me, There is so much to see that I was not watching where I was going. Calthoric whispers to the man as he flashes a charming lopsided grin and lets out a slight chuckle. "This tour is amazing don't you think? I will have to take it again as I am certain I missed something." Calthoric then turns to the imp breaking the man's personal space as if trying to get closer to it, seemingly enthralled with the creatures every word.

Calthoric looks about acting confused. "You misplaced a sword? Do they clean swords here? Seems a mage tower is a strange place for a sword." Calthoric looks to man he bumped into and whispers to him trying to incite him. "What kind of horse dung are they trying to pull here. We paid good money to see the artifacts stored in this tower. We should get our money back don't you agree. Exspecially one of your stature I am sure you work hard for every piece of gold you earn. If I were you I would probably be irate." Calthoric then moves to the next guy making small talk about what he thinks is going on but does not try to get a reaction from the gentleman.

Calthoric quickly turns to the man as he shouts out his interprtations of injustices that have befallen him with a slight smirk. He then quickly backs away towards the imp with a worried look on his face semi Hiding behind the flying imp. "Ah, now we see the violence inherited in the system..." Calthoric whispers to no one in general loud enough for the imp to her but not so for the man raising the fuss. "He probably feels repressed too. I hope he does not break something." Calthoric continues to back up away from the upset man.

"THATS RIGHT I WILL BREAK SOMETHING!" The man grabs a hold of the tapestry pulling it down. A loud beeping starts and the room fills with gas. A steal door starts to come down the doorway. You hear the Imp shout "Ah, f...." Before falling to the ground with the rest of the tour. (Fort Save DC 20 if fail unconscious (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/conditionSummary.htm#unconscious)).

[OOC: If you make the fort save then you can make it through the door before it closes with a successful reflex save DC 10]

Ayr: - You hear a siren sounding from within the tower once again. You see some wizards running shouting between breaths. "Not again, stupid people cannot keep their hands to themselves."

Chu: - You do not hear the siren from within the warehouse

Finn - You are a few blocks away at this point. An attractive girl is dancing outside a pub and the way her body moves fascinates you. You are jolted back when you hear the siren once again. The girl points her finger and then curls it back towards her as if she is tempting you to come closer.

Humming to herself, she nods as her initial fear are alleviated. "Of course not, Father. It makes sense when you put it like that. This just isn't the type of thing I'm used to..."

Entering the trap warehouse, she looks around, jumping a little as the door is latched so quickly behind her, and keeping her swordhand on Solace's pouch, the other casually resting upon her sword hilt. In response to the offers for food/hospitality, she shakes her head. "Thank you Father, but no. I have neither the need nor the want of a bath or food... I need to finish this as quickly as I can, as I'm sure my friends are worried about me... though moreso I of them..."

"Child, let the father see the artifact. He will need to examine it throughly." The priest holds out his hand waiting for you to give him the artifact.

The Head priest shakes his head and says, "I am sorry to hear that you are refusing a direct order. That is in subordination, and I demand that you hand over the artifact. You are in violation of code 284.1a of the doctrine. Acolytes, smite this hieratic."

The acolytes draw concealed short swords and move closer to attack. As they draw the swords, the Priest that brought you here screams, "Nooo, stop it!" and moves away from you (You can have an AoO). Two actually can attempt an attack on you. They both miss.

Raising her thin, blond eyebrows, she steps back quickly. "In the name of God, stop this madness! Why is everyone so insistent upon violence today?!" She whips out her sword, tightening her grip on her shield as she calls upon The One's protection, shielding her in an aura of faintly-glimmering light. Looking back at the priest who brought her here, she keeps her guard up. "I will not harm any of them, but I hope for both of our sakes that you weren't in on this..."

AoO [roll0] [roll1] The acolyte swings and misses as Rasellia casts her spell.

The acolytes move forward pressing in against you. Three swing at you all of them missing. Frustration is seen upon their faces and they continue to bring on the attack.

From the corner of your eye you see the high priest turn and leave through what looks to be a wall. It might be a secret door. As he turns to leave he throws a flask onto a crate, the flasks explodes into a fire engulfing the crate.

The only priest left in the room huddles against a crate prone.

Looking on in shock, the favoured soul gathers her senses quickly. Ignoring the swinging swords, she turns her attention to the raging fire. "Stop this madness, fools! Can't you see you're being used?! Look! He's willing to kill all of us to get what he wants!" Looking to the huddling priest, she starts casting a spell. "Father, I must get you to stand and help me, I don't know if my ability to summon water will be sufficient... That goes for the rest of you too! We can sort this out afterwards, but there's no reason for any of us to get hurt!"

The Priest starts to sob, "Why me, why me......." He does not rise but continues to stay put. As the water hits the flames it bursts into larger flames spreading the fire. Smoke is starting to fill the room. One of the acolytes jumps on top of a crate and is now able to attack you from above. You hear a bang outside the door. One adcolyte tries to open the door but cannot get the door to open. He becomes fearful. Another joins him and you hear the acolytes voice soothing him. "Remember, we do not have to fear, we have the blessing, we will go straight to heaven if our deed allows us to gain this holy item." Four now attack Rasellia none of their swords hitting her.

Gritting her teeth in frustration, she brings her sword about. "Then you leave me no choice. You! Boy!" She points to the one who was trying to get out. "Get that door open, and we'll get out of here alive!" Giving a deft kick to the priest's side, she growls. "Will you get UP? I can't drag you out of here!"

The room continues to burn and smoke is quickly filling the room. The priest rips part of his robes off and creates water upon it before covering his mouth. Rasellia's attack of the acolyte drops him to the floor, but another acolyte moves around and gets upon the crate. The three acolytes continue to attack. One connects his sword digging deep into Rasellia's flesh (2 dmg).

Smoke Effects

A character who breathes heavy smoke must make a Fortitude save (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/combatStatistics.htm#fortitude) each round (DC 15, +1 per previous check) or spend that round choking and coughing. A character who chokes for 2 consecutive rounds takes 1d6 points of nonlethal damage (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/injuryandDeath.htm#nonlethalDamage).
Smoke obscures vision, giving concealment (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/combatModifiers.htm#concealment) (20% miss chance) to characters within it.

The priest looks to Rasellia with a wet piece of garment in his hand, "An eye for and eye, I will help you if you help me. I could kill you now as you choke and hope to survive. Or we could work together, take this cloth and place it over your mouth, it will help the smoke to not bother you as much. However, choose this option and we will go our separate ways when this is done."

The door breaks into three large pieces and you are able to push it aside. A bar was placed on the other side holding the door closed as well. As you haul out a body the Priest leaves making a break for it as he starts to jog away. As you are about to enter to get another body out the building collapses. You realize that the body you have removed is not breathing any longer.

You start to wake up, you feel groggy and frustrated. The gas has left a putrid taste in your mouth. To your north a guard is processing one of the members of your tour. They are wetting him down and searching through his stuff. You hear the guard call out, "The item the wizards want is not here." Behind you, you see that a guard is questioning the now awake man who pulled down the tapestry about where the pummel is.

"YOU IDEOT!, now we will never get our money back." Calthoric takes in his surroundings and stands up dusting himself off and straitens his hair. "Good there are guards here, Guards I want this man arrested for endangering a nobles life with stupidity. Uh, what are you guys doing? And why is that man wet?"

The guards look up at you trying to place where they might have seen you before. "We have to get the gas off of them, you should be asking yourself why you are wet as well. We plan on having this man arrested, but we are still looking for the item he stole. Would you please show my your items and wait to be patted down by the next guard and then you will be escorted out."

"Stole? This man is not thief he is just stupid and was upset. Where is our guide? The only item that was missing was some sword and that was missing BEFORE we got there which is why we are so upset. However to appease you sense of duty here is my pack, you will, though, not touch me with your grubby hands. You will not treat me as if I am some commoner. Now fetch our poor excuse for a guide and let him tell you what is what." Calthoric growls at his sopped look and begins to ring out his damp cloths as best he can while wearing them. Tapping his foot impatiently waiting for the guard to move. "What are you waiting for, get him now before I have you in shackles and on public display in the stocks for you treatment."

OOC:
I didnt realize i was wet so scratch that i read you post and it didn't say anything about it or I would have asked why I was wet instead of the other guy.

Cursing to herself, she tosses the rag aside, immediately putting her hand to her side to check on Solace, to make sure it's physically still in her pouch. Upon realizing the rod is still there, she goes over and picks up her sword, sheathing it before heaving up the body of the acolyte, looking around for any guards.

"The guide did not make it out alive, he was killed by the gas. It does that in rare cases. Now, sir, please stay there and wait to be searched." The inspector finishes with the commoner the guard returns and picks him up and walks outside. The inspector comes up to you and says, "Sir, there are two ways to do this, the easy way or the hard way. The easy way is for you to empty out your pockets and let me pat you down and then let me go through my stuff. The hard way is for the guards to restrain you and then I put you back to sleep and search you. Either way, you will end up outside, in less of course you have the item we are looking for."

She sets the corpse (?) down, wiping sweat from her brow. "I... I was lead here by the priest that fled..." she points in the direction he ran off. "I was set upon by this one and five others who are still trapped inside there... I don't know if we can do anything for them, but this one, perhaps..." She kneels down and starts uttering a spell, placing her hands a few inches over the man's chest. "There was a seventh one, the one responsible for starting the fire. He fled out a secret door in the back of the warehouse. Are you going to just stand there or help me with this one?"

The spell does not work, the young man is not breathing.

She nods and sighs. And with that... she takes her leave, trying not to feel too self-concious about the state of her appearances. Though she didn't want one when the priest had mentioned it, a bath and food sounded good right about now, and she had to meet her (former?) comrades back at the inn anyway, so she makes her way back there, trying to piece together what exactly happened. As she dusts herself off, she winces as she strokes the sword wound - she had forgotten all about it. Absent-mindedly, she heals herself as she walks along.

Rasellia returns to the inn, it is a long walk before she starts to see some points of reference. As she nears the inn, part of her wonders if someone has followed her here. The common room is empty.

Stopping and turning slightly to address the guard. "I'll be staying at the inn for the next little while, though for how long, I don't know."

-----------------------

After finally arriving at the inn, Rasellia looks around the empty room, finding it odd there were no patrons. Walking up to the proprietor, if there was one present, the keeps her grubby hands to herself. "Greetings once again. I wonder how much it would be to add on a hot bath and laundry service for my usual room tonight? As you can see, I'm in sore need of both..." She gives a sheepish smile, though can't shake the feeling of being followed. Nervously, she checks upon Solace's pouch once more.

How much, all told, for bath, laundry, food and room? And as for her clothes, she'll give them to be cleaned, but not, under any circumstances, will she "conveniently" hand over Solace's pouch.
Also, if you like Crim, we can put my part on hold and wait for the others to catch up. Don't think it'd be appropriate to go into TOO many steamy details of the elven maidens bath time ;D

[crimson77]

Chu -

The inn keeper smile and replies, "You have already paid for your room for the week when you friends came in. Baths are five copper and they are located on the lower level. You will find several separate bathing rooms each one with a locking door and shelving. Just inform the attendant which bath and he will have the tub steaming hot in a little over an hour. If you are in need of laundry services, then inform the attendant as well. The cost of laundry services is two copper per garment."

Walking down to the lower level, you find a several nice bathing stalls with locking door and shelving for you equipment. A female half-elf attendant smiles and looks up from her book as you come down. Soon, the bath is warm and she returns to her book once again.

Calthoric looks to the captain with a polite smile. ”You thoroughness though unneeded will be mentioned inspector. On a side note I did notice a member of the House of Nord in the group ahead of us. Perhaps an investigation into that house can prove useful. I too have interest in the dealing of this house and might seek you out for your findings. It seems some less then standard deals have been recorded within the trades guilds. Just a thought for you.” With that Calthoric turns on his heals and walks calmly out of the tower. As he passes the man being harassed he frowns slightly. Better him then me. Innocence and ignorance will allow him to go free. As for now a bath is calling my name. Calthoric quickens his pace for the inn.

Ayr - After spending the remainder of the day at thee old magic shoppe, you head down to the Red Tower. You get to the main door and you see a sign which reads, Closed Investigation Underway. You feel a tinge that you might know what is going on and you turn back around and head to the Inn. Your steps quicken as you get closer to the inn. The inn keeper smiles as you get closer. "Two of your companions just came in and are currently bathing."

After about an hour both Rasellia and Calthoric join you back in the common room.
________________________________________

Wild - You get back to the inn. You heart is still racing from all the drama today. You inquire about a bath and the Inn Keeper informs you that it costs 5 copper and laundry service is 2 copper per garment. You head down the stairs see the half-elf who quickly get fresh water heated in a private bath. You see a occupied sign on another bath stall. The water is warm and there is a few shelves for your belongings. After your bath you head up to the common room and see Thoreal and Bolvar sitting there.

Thorael glances over to Blovar, and kicks his foot up on the table. Clasping his hands together he sets them lightly on his head. With an almost inconsequential look, one that you would give discussing the weather, or the color of the guards new uniforms, he kinda shrugs and nods his head. "Thats a good question. You should ask our ace negotiator. Better question might be what happened to the rod... and will the tale rate an 'i told you so'."

Rasellia walks down the stairs, hand on the hilt of her sword. "You'll find your fears to be quite unfounded, Thorael. I can take care of myself, though I don't expect any amount of proofs or contradictions will convince youo therwise. Regardless..." She sits at the table, keeping her voice lower now. "It's safe, for now. Though there's something odd going on in this city... I WAS attacked, though the ringleader didn't seem like much of a priest to me... and he was willing to kill his followers in order to get what he wanted."

Once again the mage finds himself slack jawed, glancing around the room in disbelief. "If by <BIG AIR QUOTES>unfounded</BIG AIR QUOTES> you mean "exactly what i expected" then yeah,... you're right. Getting attacked if you took..." Hushing his voice a bit more "was exactly what i said would happen. We'll at least you seem relatively unscathed, and no one seriously hurt. Plus as an added bonus you managed to retain possession of our friend. And you're right, that priest was casting Arcane magic. More wizard than abbot would be my guess. I would question if he were a priest at all. How did you manage to escape pursuit. Do you think you may have been followed here? What about you Cal... i see you managed to return to us with all parts intact. How did you make out?"

Calthoric flashes a lopsided grin to Thoreal. "I got what i went after. Let's just say that the red tower is going to be busy for awhile, probably the house of Nord as well." His face then hardens as he looks to the group. "As of right now this petty bickering and measuring of one metal ceases now. We were all assigned a task or accepted a task to help someone for the betterment of many. That means all our skills will be required in order to accomplish this whether you approve of them or not if a person in this party makes a play we back the play without question. We all have our skills and abilities and we'll use those strengths when the situation calls for it. If you disapprove of it, too bad, bite your tongue and bring it up later when privacy presents itself. We become a functioning unit as of now. No more petty bickering. No more looking down to one another. No more fighting amongst ourselves." Calthorics face lightens greatly as he looks to Rasellia. "Lady Rasellia if i can have what you are carrying please and then all of us travel to our room. Calthoric stands and heads to their rented room.

"Calthoric, you speak with a wisdom that's unheard of in this party... it's comforting." She gives a somewhat forced smile, hesitating at the suggestion of handing Solace over. Nodding after a moment, she hands the pouch over to Calthoric. "I expect it back, right...?"

Thorael follows the group up to their common room. "There is little doubt that my wisdom has gone unheeded, if not unheard so such a concept would come as a quite a revelation. If it is the will of the group that i bite my tongue, i will acquiesce, regardless of how improvident the plan, how pococurante the idea. I do, however, hold my skin in high regard. But enough of that... lets see them together."

Calthoric grabs a hold of both parts of the rod and fits them together. Like a two pieces of broken metal they do fit together but they do not stay together.

"You idiots, don't you think that you should ask me, for help? First of all, that is my pummel. However, a large amount of energy is needed to reforge me back together and you seem to be missing several parts. However, there is a way to reconnect me to my pummel. The pummel allows me to talk without without fear of being overheard. However, until that is attached, we run the risk of being found. I am not sure if you Thoreal or Rasellia wants to let me use your magical energy to set the pieces together. I am old magic, therefore, this might be a painful experience for you. If a acolyte wizard tries this he could die, just to warn you. If you are unwilling to do it, then we must find a wizard or priest that you trust to set the pieces. Later a reforge will have to be done."

Knowledge Arcana DC 25 - Old Magic - Old magic refers to magic that drew upon life energy to fuel the magic. All magic uses life energy, however in recent times it has not effected spell casters or items as it once did. The scholars are uncertian as to why.

"I know not of this old magic of what you speak, but take of me what you will. I do not fear a bit of pain..." With wide eyes, Thorael takes the pieces from Calthoric, and holds them together. "What now?"

As Thoreal presses the pieces together, he feels a surge of energy coursing through him, there is a bright blue flash as the pieces touch. You feel your spell energy leaving you through this process (it is like you cast 10 spelllevels of spells all at once). Then in a moment, the rod is one and thoreal falls back and lays upon the floor. A few more gray hairs can be seen in his hair and a few wrinkles on his face.

It is like you cast your three third level spells and a first level spell. You aged 20 years, took 10 damage and have to roll a DC 20 Fort save to remain conscious.

"It is alright, he should wake up soon."

Bolvar jumps over to check to see if Thorael is even still alive. When he sees the new time damage, Bolvar gasps. He then starts laughing very loudly. "Behold, the might of magic. It will kick the crap out of you, and then make you look like you are thirty years older."

Rasellia frowns at Solace's wording. Um... if you hadn't noticed, I've been constantly asking you for help... and all you ever give is cryptic, vague answers...
As Thorael takes hold of the rod and POMMEL (not pummel XD), she steps forward as if to stop him. "Wait Thorael, we should try toge-...!!" Her eyes go wide as he topples over. "H-hey!!"
Kneeling over the toppled mage, she lays her hands on his chest, trying out her new searing light spell healing the wounds that had appeared on his skin, then attempting, however futile, to reverse some of the aging.


Casting cure light wounds

Calthoric watches Thoreal go down and cannot help but to snicker at Bolvar's comments. He waits for Thoreal to gain consciousness then looks to the group. "So no where? I have a few leads dealing with the house of Nord and a guard the might help with more information about the house but I do not know how productive it will be. There is also a matter of the captain bounty hunter who gave us a ride here thinking he has the wrong man. The condemned man also offered aid in return for ours. If neither of the courses of action are acceptable then I am at a loss on where to go next."
