Jens
Jens will follow along as well, but also ask Maeni, "You asked around earlier correct? Any specifics as to where this fisherman can be found?" He will also check to make sure the collective didn't get overextended in their travels, and rejoin anyone who is supposed to be in the collective that may have moved out of range.
Spoiler: OOCA lot of movement happened so Jens will try to reconnect anyone who is supposed to be in the collective who isn't. This may be a needless worry but Flair and Dorn may have been taken out of range during the stint with the artist so making sure they have active connections.Avatar by MeanMrsMustard

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Flair and Dorn are back in the collective, but not Brother Jaume. I will assume that you check out the thingy on the hill. The party goes along the footpath behind some of the houses to the base of the hill, and up.
On top of the hill, you see a 12-foot-tall lith with stranged, weathered runes that seem to face the center of town. The object is mostly cylindrical, but the side of the stone facing the center of town has been ground down into a flat surface carved with enigmatic symbols.28JAN2024: Completed reading TPK Games' The Deductionist (2013, Everhart).

Dorn will also lok closely at the runes and examine the item over all.

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Thinking back a little, Maeni answers :
"They were talking about the westernmost islet. We went to the southwestern one, so... maybe the northwestern ?"

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Flair and Dorn (and Maeni) look over the lith, but can gain no insight.
From this hill, Maeni muses out loud, but soon realizes this is the westernmost of the three islets paralleling the shore of Thrushmoor.28JAN2024: Completed reading TPK Games' The Deductionist (2013, Everhart). This source is authorized for playtest.

"Okay, this is getting us nowhere." Flair said exasperatedly. "Maybe we should wait until later in the day and check the bar for this fellow. We'll at least know where he'll be."

"If we are so close we can start asking the local passers-by. Eventually we should get an idea as to where are lost fisherman is." Jens says aloud to the others before looking pensive, "Though searching a nearby bar or tavern wouldn't be the worst idea. Perhaps whatever he saw spooked him badly enough to drive him to drink."Avatar by MeanMrsMustard

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
It will take a half-hour of asking around and just walking to find the Stain on the western side of town.
The oldest tap house in Thrushmoor, the Stain has catered to local and foreign customers for longer than anyone in town can remember. The proprieter, Emman Gulston (male human), an ex-merchant marine captain and a man true to his word, has become something of an emotional anchor to his fellow citizens in the current crisis.
What now, as you stand outside The Stain? If you go in, what is the plan? Go in en masse?28JAN2024: Completed reading TPK Games' The Deductionist (2013, Everhart). This source is authorized for playtest.

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
A bead of sweat runs down the cheek of the portly friar. His hands are gripping his staff tightly, knuckles white.
“...I think...maybe I should wait outside.”

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Flair nods. "Good idea. We don't want to irritate our employer any more than we already have." He turned to the party "I'll head in and see what I can find. We should probably keep the number of us in there to a minimum as to not to draw too much attention. Or at least stagger the rate at which we enter to not scare any potential informants away. Any objections?"

"I will also wait out here. Hopefully my previous self only had one altercation in a liquor selling establishment, but a pinch of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Flair nodded. "Sounds good. How about you Maeni? Do you want to come in and help try and find out what's what?" After getting a response, he would similarly ask Dorn on if he'd want to head in or not.

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Dorn, Maeni, and Flair go into The Stain. There will be several folk scattered about in quiet twos and threes. There is almost a physical aura of reproach as these little clusters hunker closer together, worried about being contaminated by the outsiders.
At the bar, is a broad, ebulliant, well-whiskered man of later middle years.

Flair walks up to the bartender. "Hello, my good man. What do you have on tap?" If Flair sees any sort of kitchen area, he'll also ask about what is on the menu,

"For you? Water. 'Course, I ain't had a priest bless it or nothing, so who knows if it has cholera," says the barkeep.

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Aldo nodded. This wasn't a big town, so the barkeep knowing his employer and her no alcohol policy wasn't surprising. "In that case, do you know where we could find one Toli Remsatter? We've heard that he saw something outside of town and we want to investigate the matter."

Re: Strange Aeons 2: The Thrushmoor Terror [IC]
Emman looks at Flair, then looks up and to the side as if to think, then back to the three in front of him. "Have you ever seen a candle on a table, and find your eye drawn to it? If find I am likewise focused when I see something shiny in front of me."

Flair nods and walks over to the indicated crowd. He grabs a chair and sits in it backwards "So" he says, his hands on the chair's back. "I hear you saw something. Mr Remsetter", he asks jovially.
