"Sorry, I lost control almost, Johon."

And he walks off to help Byblos clean off books.

"Come, have a drink while you wait for these to dry. I'll help you if not."

"You better...no one else is gonna do it!"

Hybros yawned at a table in the corner of the bar. He had his feet propped up on the table and was leaning back in his chair, tossing throwing knives into the wall. While he was thankful for a chance to rest after his most recent adventure, he craved more and there wasn't any quest sign-ups happening. He had to do something, he couldn't just sit in this hall while there was opportunities to be taken, questions to be answered.

Hybros reflected on Reno and the Ji Pei. He had no way of communicating with them, but wondered if either would post a quest soon. What was worse than this feeling of being caged in is that there was no one around. Eric, Boomingham, and the woman with the Zoot weapon... Tesni, all seemed to be out and about. There also seemed to be a lack of new faces; the few present were wreaking havoc in the library.

There seemed to be some excitement coming from downstairs. He had heard that an arena was now open. But he had no desire to fight any one of these heroes, even just for practice. A truly barbaric sport it seemed to be, without many advantages. Perhaps he would amuse himself by watching a match.

Dyric takes note of a lonely rogue-ish looking fellow at a far table. He seemed worn, but Dyric did not recal ever seeing him before. With nothing better to do, he goes to sit beside Hybros.

Hey, my name's Dyric Rone.

For once glad for some company, Hybros sat up straight and greeted the stranger. He seemed to share some of the shady characteristics of Hybros and other rogues.

"Hello, I'm Hybros. I don't recall ever seeing you in here before. Have you been on many quests?"

Two. The first was a brief one for the Hinckwells, attempting to reclaim a forest that had been ravaged by criminals.

As for the second... we were told that Wren was corrupting a city, and that rebels had sprang forth to combat these forces. Our party was called to assist these rebels, destroying Wren's factories and uniting groups together in a fragile alliance. When all was said and done, we charged our so-called enemy. It was a bloody mess, full of confusion. Hoke and Haldor's elf, Jess, had gone missing, and we had no leads. Meanwhile, the grass beneath us- at least what we could see through the bodies- was stained a sick red. To make things worse- it turned out the commander we had followed into battle had a double on the enemy's side. The two were each convinced they were the real one, and that the other was a corruption of Wren. We had to choose- go with the rebels, or the city. We went with the city. It turns out we were right, but the battles worsened still, and the sights sicken me to this very day. We ultimately won that battle, if you can have victory agaisnt chaos itself. I won't be able to forget that quest. Words can barely describe the awful scene that had been before us, the stench of rotting bodies and blood that covered the battlefield like a cloak. That's why I haven't signed up for another quest, yet. I need... I need time. My whole life I have encountered horrors, and always I've ran straight into another one. This time... no. This time I'll take the time.

Helm flips a coin from hand to hand and wonders if any heroes want to lose all of their money gamble a little.

He sets up on a table against the wall, placing three cups upside down and places a coin on the table. Then he waits for an unfortunate fool curious character to approach.

Johon decides to risk some of his coins, but not in a gambling fashion.

He walks over to see if Helm would like to play a game of mind. He wants to face him in a strategy game.

"What games ya playing there?"

"I'll roll a die 4 times, if the sum's even, you win, if it's odd, I win, unless you want it to be you win when it's odd of course. deal? You win, you get 1 coin, I win, I get 2 coins."

"Ah you've encountered Wren too. She seems to have a way of challenging the very foundations of our purpose, heheh... and loyalty at that. There will come a time when we will have to stop her once and for all, and I hope that you as well as any other hero willing will be there. Take as much time as you need to recover, though, I know very well that any encounter with the witch can drain you."

Helm smiled.

Ah, you wish to battle with the mind not the dice.

Points to a nearby chessboard...

Do you play at all? If so, then I challenge you, name your bet and then make your move. You may play as white.

Durkon runs back up to Johon.

"Could I have 100 gold or 50 gold? I promise not douse the Hall, or do anything stupid....."

He then looks for anyone else that had gold. He saw a tall Mage lurking in the corner.

"Fellow Mage, you have a exceptional amount of gold. Could I have 100 or 50?"

Elgar went up to Johon " friend, I could do with a bit of cash. If you lend me 31 gold next time I see you after a quest I will give you 50 gold"

"Sorry, I'm planning on renting out a healing staff once I get money back from Arthur. If you want, I could make you a deal with the healing staff though. How about 5 coins starter fee, and 2 and a half coins (rounded up at end) each battle your group uses the staff. Deal?"

"Shame" Elgar said as he sunk back "I don't have much use for magical objects"

Haldor ducked back through the door, placing his new scroll in his bag. He noticed a piece of paper pinned to a wall, reading it, hi put 35 gold underneath the note for this unknown 'Elgar' to recieve. With the promise of more when the loan was repayed, Haldor sat ang helped himself to a large chunk of meat and some Mead.

Durkon walked over to the wall of the bar and plastered up a note saying:

100 or 50 gold needed. Contact Durkun for more details.
