MAP NOT TO SCALE

The Back Alley Party

"Nothing violent I assure you." Throlar said, speaking diplomatically, "I'm Throlar Wineghilm, walking public relations disaster. And this is Althior Emorith, amoral prophet-cum-necromancer. We're here looking for a dangerous woman named Amber Makepeace, brunette, pale, wears black and red, usually accompanied by a shadow wraith of some sort. Have you seen her?"

The skeletal ghost laughs, his sharp and high pitched howlers of laughter filling the alley.

"Ha hahahaha! No. Although you do crack me up! My name is Gus. I came into Fellcrest with a few friends and we seem to have been forced to stay here. Apparently, the head honcho doesn't want people leaving or something.

As for why I'm here, the best answer I can give you is loitering. I hate this place. All I want is some old, abandoned house to settle down in with my chaps. Figured we might find something here, but no luck so far."

[Asphalt]

Then we shall leave you to your rest Dear Lady. I thank you for the scroll and I would welcome another visit with you in the future. It was a wonderful contrast to meet you here. The witch bows his head to Irisa, and then ducks it low to leave the shop.

Vindsval Turns to Sorrow.

Shall we talk with a few of these townsfolk? Perhaps they could tell us something of import regarding our search.

The green man approaches the Caped Woman with the staff and her Pale Companion.

Well met Friends, I am Vindsval Called the Half Born, slayer of the Night Assassin, would you have a moment to talk? I am new to your city and there is much I do not yet know.

[Kintobor]

Will have an update tomorrow for you, Asphalt. Sorry, had a busy day and need to take some photos.

[Duvors]

"We cleared out some rats from a little rundown house in the north of the city, I don't think anybody's taken up residence in the interval."

[Kintobor]

The East Gates Party

The green man approaches the Caped Woman with the staff and her Pale Companion.

Well met Friends, I am Vindsval Called the Half Born, slayer of the Night Assassin, would you have a moment to talk? I am new to your city and there is much I do not yet know.

The caped woman looks over Vindsval, seemingly disinterested. Her companion seemed somewhat more timid around the hulking half giant, ducking behind the caped woman. Vindsval couldn't see it at first, but as he approached the woman, he noticed a large gash across her neck.

"Well met, Vindsval. My name is High Priestess Silivia. I'm currently doing my rounds about town, ensuring the populace is that worships Helvetia is at ease... although I doubt that state will come any time soon. I've been informed by Captain von Zarovitch that you entered the town, that and I've also heard that you were responsible for ending the Sniper's spree in town. For that, you have my personal thanks." The individual attempts to straighten his posture and audibly gulps.

"Well, my-my-my name is Taylor. P-p-pleasure to meet you."

"Now then, what can I help you with?"

The Back Alley Party

"We cleared out some rats from a little rundown house in the north of the city, I don't think anybody's taken up residence in the interval."

"You don't say, eh.... perhaps I'll have to take a look into it. If you see Ivan or Geoffrey, let them know where I am. I'm going to check out this house. Thanks for the tip off." With a small gesture, the grinning undead gets off the box and makes his way out of the alley.

[Endgame]

"You're doing good work, Silivia. Priest carlos - whom I assume you're in charge of... hlped me with a certain matter. You have my thanks.

Are you another priest, Taylor?"

[Asphalt]

Vindsval kneels before the High Priestess and knuckles his forehead in respect.

Well met High Priestess, Even a follower of the Wanderer knows of the power of your order. I am blessed by your notice of my actions.

He stands slowly and as smoothly as his large frame would allow. He nods to the timid man. Well met to you as well Master Taylor

I am among a group of travelers come from Heroica to find a woman believed to be hiding here among your people. She goes by the name of Amber Makepeace. It would help me upon my path if you had any knowledge of her that you would be willing to share.

[Kintobor]

"You're doing good work, Silivia. Priest carlos - whom I assume you're in charge of... hlped me with a certain matter. You have my thanks.

Are you another priest, Taylor?"

Silvia nodded in recognition, looking appreciative of Sorrow's comment.

"Thank you for the kind words. Carlos is indeed a member of the Church which I oversee, and one of my more trusted priests. I believe I remember him telling me a necromancer came into our fold late last night. If there's anything you need when it comes to the art of necromancy and speaking with the deceased, come speak to me." Her voice was somewhat raspy and hoarse, but it was to be somewhat expected due to her gash. Taylor seemed to get somewhat tense at being put in the spotlight.

"Who, me? Oh, no, um, I'm, um, just lady Silvia's attendant for the time being, although I do work with some of the other priests."

"I brought him into the church when he first strode into town about a year ago. A fresh undead, confused and lost, like a lot of us. It was either that or wallow about. It's hard coming to grips being dead and alive at times, especially at young age like Taylor's." Taylor continued to stick to the High Priestess side, fiddling with his hands.

He nods to the timid man. Well met to you as well Master Taylor

I am among a group of travelers come from Heroica to find a woman believed to be hiding here among your people. She goes by the name of Amber Makepeace. It would help me upon my path if you had any knowledge of her that you would be willing to share.

Taylor merely nodded, seemingly intimidated by the giant in front of him.

"The name Amber Makepeace is familiar to me. I remember her coming her some years ago, but I have not seen her since. She came looking for advice on Helvetia and looking for clarity. She left my church shortly afterward. Whether she stayed in town for long, I don't remember. My advice to you is to ask Stine in the Creaky Coffin. He hears a lot, and even if he hasn't heard of her, he may have other leads for you to follow."

[K-Nut]

Althior scowls. "You realize that's also where our portal is, right? McCreary may not be too happy if people start using it..."

[Duvors]

Althior scowls. "You realize that's also where our portal is, right? McCreary may not be too happy if people start using it..."

"Shit. We'd better tell him."

Throlar called after the undead.

"Sir, I think you should know that the portal we used to get into the city is in that house, it should close sometime about midnight tomorrow."

He looked back at Althior.

"There, that should deal with the problem, now come on, we have a quarry to stalk." he said, replacing his Elven Shield with his Shield of Invisibility.

[Kintobor]

"Sir, I think you should know that the portal we used to get into the city is in that house, it should close sometime about midnight tomorrow."

As Throlar calls out to Gus, he notices he shouting at no one. Gus is no where to be seen.

[Asphalt]

"The name Amber Makepeace is familiar to me. I remember her coming her some years ago, but I have not seen her since. She came looking for advice on Helvetia and looking for clarity. She left my church shortly afterward. Whether she stayed in town for long, I don't remember. My advice to you is to ask Stine in the Creaky Coffin. He hears a lot, and even if he hasn't heard of her, he may have other leads for you to follow."

"Many thanks Lady. My I use your name to loosen his tongue? Some if this town are very hesitant to speak to outsiders. If I could say that you sent me, it may go a long way to helping him in his willingness to speak."

[Kintobor]

"Many thanks Lady. My I use your name to loosen his tongue? Some if this town are very hesitant to speak to outsiders. If I could say that you sent me, it may go a long way to helping him in his willingness to speak."

"Stine's one of those people you described. He's a good businessman, but he's secretive. He may be sociable, but he doesn't open his lips unless there's business or gold on the table, and he's even more so like that to the living. You'll have to speak with him yourself."

[Asphalt]

"Then I fear this may be either a very short or a very one sided conversation."

Vindsval nods his head once more to the priestess and to the timid Terry.

"I look forward to meeting each of you once again. But I must be on my way. Our employer has placed a rather tight timetable on our little venture. May the Wanderer guide you upon your Path."

Vindsval Moves off to the Saloon and enters, hoping to have an open conversation with Master Stine.

[Endgame]

"May we meet again."

I follow vindsval to the Saloon.

[Kintobor]

"Then I fear this may be either a very short or a very one sided conversation."

Vindsval nods his head once more to the priestess and to the timid Terry.

"I look forward to meeting each of you once again. But I must be on my way. Our employer has placed a rather tight timetable on our little venture. May the Wanderer guide you upon your Path."

Vindsval Moves off to the Saloon and enters, hoping to have an open conversation with Master Stine.

"May we meet again."

I follow vindsval to the Saloon.

"Best of luck in your endeavours. May the Frostheart watch over you, in this life and the next."

Taylor waves farewell as Vindsval manages to squeeze his way into the saloon, the Creaky Coffin, Sorrow not far behind him.

The various pieces of memorabilia hanging on the wall seemed to tell a long and tumultuous history in the area, including plaques and curious banners. A device in the back plays a song as the two enters, not the same one Sorrow heard earlier.

"Welcome to the Creaking Coffin. My name's Stine, please take a seat." He notices Sorrow and chuckles. "Back so soon? Hehe. What can I do you for, gentlemen?"

"Hopefully not to throw salt in my wounds..." Geoffrey grumbles, clearly becoming more inebriated by his drink.

[Asphalt]

Vindsval ducks gingerly through the door and looks about the saloon.

Well met Master Stine. I have heard much about you and this place. It certainly lives up to its reputation. I am called Vindsval. What might you have to offer a weary traveller?

[Duvors]

"Well bugger."

He stood still for a moment before finally giving an invisible shrug.

"Ah well, it'll sort itself out, come on, to the Last Chance!"

[Kintobor]

Vindsval ducks gingerly through the door and looks about the saloon.

Well met Master Stine. I have heard much about you and this place. It certainly lives up to its reputation. I am called Vindsval. What might you have to offer a weary traveller?

Stine nods as he wipes down the bar.

"Many a fine beverage, sir. What interests you the most? I'll note we ask our patron to finish their drinks in the establishment as well, so no taking anything with you."

[Asphalt]

A fine selection it is my friend.

Vindsval pulls a small handful of gold from his purse and offers it to the Bartender.

I believe I would like to wipe the dust of the streets from my throat with one of your fine MEADS if you would pour me one.

The witch then waits in silent anticipation for Stine to fill his order. The music begins to insinuate itself into his mind and he begins to tap a finger nail against the bar in time with the tune.

[Endgame]

"I'm more in the market for information this time, Stine."

[Kintobor]

QM Note: We've gotten to a point where both parties are pretty far apart time wise from each other. This is just a heads up for both teams, but it's Noon for Sorrow and Vindsval, and Midnight for Althior and Throlar. I'll have the Althior and Throlar update in a bit, since I need to take some photography, but for now I'll continue with Sorrow and Vindsval. As a reminder, fatigue will set in on the Third day at Noon unless you rest for a full section of a day.

A fine selection it is my friend.

Vindsval pulls a small handful of gold from his purse and offers it to the Bartender.

I believe I would like to wipe the dust of the streets from my throat with one of your fine MEADS if you would pour me one.

The witch then waits in silent anticipation for Stine to fill his order. The music begins to insinuate itself into his mind and he begins to tap a finger nail against the bar in time with the tune.

"But of course." Stine gets to work pouring Vindsval his drink out of a tap, handing it to him after receiving his money. He grins as he gives it to the half-giant. "Enjoy, friend."

"I'm more in the market for information this time, Stine."

"Are you now? Hehehe." Stine shows his grainy, yellow teeth as he chuckles in his coarse voice. "A lot of people want information, but I don't give it to just anyone. Besides, didn't we have a deal? You get my bar tab money back for me, and I'll give you discount and I'll loosen my lips on whatever you want to know about this town that might have weaselled it's way into my little ears."

[Asphalt]

Vindsval picks up the small mug and sips thoughtfully at its foamy contents. He smiles appreciatively as the aroma of hops and bitters hits his nose.

Truly a fine brew Master Stine. He says before a yawn cuts his words off prematurely.

My apologies, but it has been a long couple of days. There has been much work to be done since we arrived here in your fine city. I do not suppose you have a room, or even a secluded corner in which I could unpack my bedroll and REST for a few hours. I fear I may not be much longer on my feet otherwise.

[Duvors]

"Althior? I just spoke to you, Althior? Althior? We don't have all night you know."
