UsernameMDM Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 The Fairy tentatively descends and meets with Hoke and Benji near the entrance of the room. "It was very late, I was coming back here after a job when it happened. It was... it was... awful." The Fairy sheds a few tears and is visibly shaken. "It came at me, it's huge bulk blotted out the moon and then... then... it spoke." The Fairy breaks down in sobs. Hoke moves to console the fairy. Hoke uses Diplomacy. "I am so very sorry my dear. Please, can you tell us what it said? We are doing out best to hunt this creature down, and your help may be the key we need." "Now look what you've done. You've ruined a perfectly good evening, sodding heroes." Hoke gives the werewolf a sharp glare.

UsernameMDM Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 "It's exact words were 'You'll never be her'." The Fairy still trembles. "Hmmm..." Hoke muses as he rubs his now scruffy chin, "Where exactly did the attack happen? Again, I am so very sorry that you encountered this creature, but I am glad you made it out of that situation. I am sorry, I did not catch your name. Are you Eliza Pennypinch?" Hoke consoles the fairy a bit more, and apologizes to the men in the room. "Gentlemen, sorry for the intrusion. If you give the lady her a moment, it would be much appreciated." Hoke turns to Hoples. "Might this mean anything to you? Perhaps a lost loved one? Any murders, kidnappings or disappearances that stand out that may have happened right before the time of the attacks? What were the list of the incidents again? Maybe we can decipher a pattern." Hoke looks at Benji. "Have anything else for these gentlemen?"
Flare Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Benji tries to console the fairy girl, softening up considerably from his usual gruff manner. "Its okay dear, we're here for you. Do you have any clue what the beast intended in this? We will hunt this creature down and slay him, don't fret." He turns to the group of men. "I'm sorry for the disturbance gentlemen."
Waterbrick Down Posted November 12, 2014 Author Posted November 12, 2014 "Yes, it's Pennypinch and no, I haven't the slightest idea what it meant by it. It was so very late and I was just trying to get home." Hoples offers his handkerchief. "Here you are Miss. No, gentlemen, we don't have any reports of missing persons or murders of that nature surrounding the case, that doesn't necessarily mean stuff doesn't get unreported mind you. As for incidents, we have the one with Ms. Pennypinch here, Mr. Mando, the incident with Master Swifthorn, and the property destruction at the Marketplace and the Observatory."
UsernameMDM Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 "Thank you again ma'am." Hoke nods to her in thanks. "Carvenhall, Hoples, I've got two more keys, let's see what doors they open up."
UsernameMDM Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Hoke turns around sharpky and re-enters the room "Gentlemen, may we see that map?"
Waterbrick Down Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 "Not sure what it has to do with this monster." Wetnose does not hand over the map.
Flare Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) "We don't need to see the map. Come Hoke, let's leave these gentlemen." As he turns to leave he asks one final question of Eliza, "About what time was the incident, my dear?" Edited November 13, 2014 by Flare
UsernameMDM Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 "We don't need to see the map. Come Hoke, let's leave these gentlemen." Hoke shakes Carvenhall off and holds up a hand. "Not sure what it has to do with this monster." Wetnose does not hand over the map. "Just a look so Detective Hoples can point out where the aforementioned incidents happened." Hoke uses Diplomacy on the Metasimian. "It would be a great help to us."
Waterbrick Down Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) "I'm afraid this map is of the underground, Master Knight, and from the sounds of it, I doubt your monster could even fit down there." "Four nights back, had to be close to 1 in the morning when I was coming back." Edited November 13, 2014 by Waterbrick Down
UsernameMDM Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 "I'm afraid this map is of the underground, Master Knight, and from the sounds of it, I doubt your monster could even fit down there." "Many thanks to you then. Sorry for the intrusion." Hoke leaves the room and searches for the remaining two locked doors.
Waterbrick Down Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 "Many thanks to you then. Sorry for the intrusion." Hoke leaves the room and searches for the remaining two locked doors. Hoke notes that one of the doors is the room he came out of from Moira. Behind the other, Hoke discovers a cyclops and an orc in a rather intimate situation.
UsernameMDM Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 "Any idea Carvenhall, or are we done with the Lotus?"
UsernameMDM Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Hoke goes down the stairs and joins Alithor and Mando. "Do we have any other business to attend to here or should we make our way to the next scene?"
UsernameMDM Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Hoples, what is the closest scene of crime to here?"
Waterbrick Down Posted November 14, 2014 Author Posted November 14, 2014 "Probably Swifthorn's or the observatory, not sure what you'll be expecting to find in the dark though."
UsernameMDM Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Probably Swifthorn's or the observatory, not sure what you'll be expecting to find in the dark though." "A monster. Gentlemen, shall we go?"
Waterbrick Down Posted November 14, 2014 Author Posted November 14, 2014 "You gentlemen heading out?"
Flare Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Let's stay here for another hour or so, I could use another drink."
UsernameMDM Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Let's stay here for another hour or so, I could use another drink." "OK."
Flare Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) Benji sits down by Mando. "So Barlin, when's your next acting at? Think you could get me a discount, heh?" Edited November 14, 2014 by Flare
