K-Nut Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 QM Note: I had company over, and haven't had a decent enough time to wrap it up. I'll have it for you tomorrow. Super sorry. Fine by me. I just want to know the layout of the town before deciding my/our next move. Quote
Duvors Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 "Hoot, hoot? <Oh, not very long. Only for a few days. I intend to fly off by the end of the week. I'm heading for Dastan to see the dragons. Where are you going?>" <I'll be staying on here for a few days.>He contemplated for a minute, then spoke again. <Tell me, in your time here have you seen a pale woman in black and red? Or a being made of shadows?> Quote
Kintobor Posted July 23, 2015 Author Posted July 23, 2015 "Very well, we'll look around," "Yes, we'll find the seller. Just... stay strong in the mean time, okay?" "Yeah, d-don't worry about me. Just don't forget about me, okay? I'm counting on you!" With much anticipation Althior opens the map... only to realize whoever drew it mustn't of been a very good cartographer or artist. LEGEND: 1: East Gates 2: Temple of Helvetia 3: South Gates 4: Last Chance Connivence and Goods 5: Countess Lyudmila's Manor 6: Residential District 7: Old Ratty House 8: Back Alley 9: Cemetery MAP NOT TO SCALE The Map has been added to the Journal. <I'll be staying on here for a few days.> He contemplated for a minute, then spoke again. <Tell me, in your time here have you seen a pale woman in black and red? Or a being made of shadows?> "Hootie hoot hoo! <Pale women in black and red... no, I can't say for certain. Although, I did see some rather curious people in different coloured capes earlier at the South gates. I see much with my eyes.>" Vindsval Looks again to the Woman, and speaks a bit more loudly. "Greetings Madaam, How are you this fine day?" He refuses to abandon cordiality because of one old codger. The undead still doesn't respond. "Louder than that mate. You got to put some "omphf" into it." The stall owner replies again in his coarse voice. Quote
Endgame Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 "I'm thinking "Last Chance" sounds like a good place to get our powder, or perhaps our Necromancer." Quote
K-Nut Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Althior mugs the shop keeper, demanding his money back rolls his eyes at the quality of the map before turning to Sorrow. "I wouldn't be surprised if our dealer showed up in the alley later tonight, actually. We could head to Last Chance now, then make our way through the South Gate area, up to the Temple of Helvetia for your 'pilgrimage', and make it back to the alley by the small hours of the morning," Quote
Endgame Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I shrug. "I'm thinking heading to the Temple might be a little... Greedy of me. We don't have much time to spare, and I don't think I should jeopardize the mission just to light some candles and pray. I can do that in Eubric." I would love to do it, though... Quote
K-Nut Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 "We have the time, trust me. It'll be on our way to anything in the eastern parts of the city. We'll end up checking the whole city anyways," Quote
Asphalt Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) By the Gods, Vindsval takes in a breath and very nearly shouts "Good Afternoon Madam, A fine Day isn't it?" This time he waves his hand in front of her to try to catch her attention. Edited July 23, 2015 by Asphalt Quote
K-Nut Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) Althior rolls his eys. "We should attempt to maintain our cover, perhaps? I'm heading to Last Chance. Anyone who wants to join me is welcome," Edited July 23, 2015 by K-Nut Quote
Duvors Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 "Hootie hoot hoo! <Pale women in black and red... no, I can't say for certain. Although, I did see some rather curious people in different coloured capes earlier at the South gates. I see much with my eyes.>" <Hmmm... Thank you o wise one. Your help is greatly appreciated.> and he accompanied his words with a bow. Althior rolls his eys. "We should attempt to maintain our cover, perhaps? I'm heading to Last Chance. Anyone who wants to join me is welcome," "Right, I'll come with you." Quote
Endgame Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 "Before we go, what did the owl say, Throlar?" Quote
Duvors Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 "Before we go, what did the owl say, Throlar?" "Hmmm? Oh, I asked if he'd seen anyone who looked like our quarry, he said no, but he did also say that he saw several people in multicolored capes at the south gate. Interesting isn't it?" Quote

Oh, I asked if he'd seen anyone who looked like our quarry, he said no, but he did also say that he saw several people in multicolored capes at the south gate. Interesting isn't it?" "Ah, the classic case of wandering troupe of actors, or maraing band of robbers... Nevertheless, if your owl friend didn't see them doing anything bad, they probably arent an immediate thret, if they will ever be. If Vindsval is done communicating with that woman, we should head to the Last Chance." Quote

Kintobor Posted July 24, 2015 Author Posted July 24, 2015 By the Gods, Vindsval takes in a breath and very nearly shouts "Good Afternoon Madam, A fine Day isn't it?" This time he waves his hand in front of her to try to catch her attention. Vindsvals waving was enough to get the woman's attention, but it still seemed like something didn't register with her. "Why are you waving your hands in front of me? Do you need something of me?" QM Note: I'll allow Vind to either stay here or head out to Last Chance, or something else entirely. Quote
Asphalt Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 "I am new to the city, I was hoping you could give me some advice. Is there anywhere exciting a traveller should visit? Any places my companions and I should avoid?" Quote
Kintobor Posted July 24, 2015 Author Posted July 24, 2015 Gretchin shakes her head and shouts at Vind. "WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU! YOU'll HAVE TO SPEAK UP!" Quote
Asphalt Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 Wanderer give me strength. Vindsval raises his voice again. "I am new to the city, WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND I SEE OR DO HERE?" Quote
Kintobor Posted July 24, 2015 Author Posted July 24, 2015 "You don't need to be so loud!" Gretchin exclaims. "Anyways, here's a bar at the East Gates, and the Temple of Helvetia's nice, if a little gothic. There's not a whole lot here, to be honest." The shopkeeper simply snickers to himself, shaking his head. Quote
Asphalt Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP, EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS. IF I CAN DO ANYTHING FOR YOU IN RETURN, PLEASE TELL ME. Vindsval rubs his face with his hand. The elders of this town are certainly interesting. Quote
K-Nut Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 Althior drops his head in his hands as Vindsval attempts to speak to the lady. "Are we done now?" Quote
Endgame Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 "Makes me wonder if it was just the bandages covering her ears..." Quote
Asphalt Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) "If she has nothing more to tell us then I apologize for wasting everyone's time. In a hostile land, it pays to attempt to make friends." While he waits to hear from the Old Woman, vindsval searches the Crates and Barrels littering the Alley. Edited July 24, 2015 by Asphalt Quote
K-Nut Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 "Nothing against you. Point Break. Just someone that, well..." he trails off. "Nevermind, let's get going," Quote

Vindsval rubs his face with his hand. The elders of this town are certainly interesting. While he waits to hear from the Old Woman, vindsval searches the Crates and Barrels littering the Alley. "Oh, no, I'm alright. I'll let you know if I need anything." Looking through the crates and barrels Vindsval finds nothing but rubble and broken planks, most likely from the ruins of the house above his head. Having apparently finished their work in the Residential District, the party makes their way to the Last Chance Connivence and Goods. Surprisingly, the building seemed much more recent. Flashing lights blinked around the entrance and the interior could be seen from inside. Unlike other areas they passed, the area around the store seemed to be relatively clean with the exception of an old pot and an oddly placed empty coffin. A bulgy-eyed man loitered around the front of the building. The establishment seemed to open.
