Heroica RPG - Quest #145: Rescue My People!

[Palathadric]

"Well, the only thing that might intrest you would be the pearl, but it's highly unlikely that it is anything significant."

"A pearl? Yes, indeed, that sounds like it has promise. Let me see it."

Keliim does not say anything just walks over to the 2 dead bodies and searches them again for something of value and importance to the quest.

Kellim finds nothing of particular note.

Pimky takes the Black Pearl and analyses it carefully for a few moments, before handing it back to Kellim.

"Yes, yes! This is certainly it. Stolen from our farm. No less! This is what Bonaparte requires. Give it to him and you can be assured of the success of your mission."

[Mencot]

"Alrecht th'n, lets back tae th' farm."

[Palathadric]

"I'll just...um...clean up this mess. Nice working with you, heroes. Good work."

[Mencot]

Thank ye Pimky maybe we willst meet again.

Keliim looks around and picks up a burning piece of woodsplinter, a remain of the firebomb he had thrown before.

Here, th's willst help with th' cleanin' The big man says with a laugh and throws the burning splinter into the vagon. Then he starts walking towards the farm.

As the big man walks towards the farm he holds the black pearl in his hand. Rolling it with his fingers, he looks how the smooth surface reflex the sunlight. He uncorks the mead he had taken from the battle and drinks it.

What be so special 'bout th's thing.

Kheyli follows back to the farm

[Palathadric]

Arriving at the barn, the heroes meet both Bonaparte and Cheapy just leaving.

"Ah, heroes! You are quick, aren't you? You did get the item from Pimky, didn't you?"

[Mencot]

"Hello again. Aye we found something!" Keliim shows them a bag holding the pearl.He opens the bag a bit to show them the pearl.

[Palathadric]

"A simple pearl? It looks rather ordinary to me. Are you sure Pimky said that this indeed was the sign requested?"

Cheapy looks on.

[Mencot]

"I dunno. But he said somethin' th't th's Black pearl wast stolen 'nd was of importance to th' farm..."

[Sandy]

"What is going on here?" Quintessa asked the pig in frustration. "Do you not know what you want from us, after all? We feel like We are on a wild goose chase right about now..."

[Palathadric]

"I dunno. But he said somethin' th't th's Black pearl wast stolen 'nd was of importance to th' farm..."

"What is going on here?" Quintessa asked the pig in frustration. "Do you not know what you want from us, after all? We feel like We are on a wild goose chase right about now..."

"Good grief! How would I know. As I stated before, Pimky is the one who was supposed to tell you about that. I had assumed that the item was more...um...unique than this pearl, which is still very nice, but if you are convinced, then there is no need for me to delay you. I have a speech to make. Cheapy, keep them company while they wait."

Bonaparte heads back into the barn with the pearl.

Cheapy turns to the heroes and says to those who have the kindness to put on their cowls,

"You made short work of that heroes. Good job! Pimky had us believe that it would be an extremely tough and dangerous task. He was very rushed about you coming right away though, so perhaps he knew of a loophole or something. Was the house difficult to break into?"

[Mencot]

Seeing Cheapy talk but not understanding a word he is saying. Keliim puts on the cowl.

"Hello Cheapy, ye was sayin'... Alrecht, it was actually a vagon were we found it.

Nay, It was not too hard to get it."

"How odd. I could have sworn he said that the farmer kept it at his house...but, if it was in the wagon, was the farmer with it then?"

Edited February 23, 2016 by Palathadric

[Mencot]

The big man looked confused of Cheapy´s words.... "What farmer, Nay,Pimky didst not lead us to any farmer?

He lead us to some bandits, that had "stolen", in real words they had bought stuff from th' farm.

But they were from the criminal organization call'd Wolfgang, so maybe they had gotten hold of th' pearl from th' farmer!"

[Sandy]

"Perhaps we should investigate the farmer's house next? Maybe the raiders have harmed him and he requires our help."

[Mencot]

"Not a bad idea Quintessa. 'nd I think we shall start doin', helpin' th's quest our way...

[K-Nut]

Kheyli shrugs "That's probably as good of a place as any to go."

"I wouldn't advise that for now. If the farmer is around..."

[Sandy]

"I wouldn't advise that for now. If the farmer is around..."

"So, what is it that you advice? We've been dying to hear that all this time..."

[Mencot]

Keliim, this time justnods in agreement to the old ladies words.

[Palathadric]

"So, what is it that you advice? We've been dying to hear that all this time..."

"If you want to be so insistent, you can go to the farmhouse if you like, but what's the point, exactly? You've finished your work, now all you've got to do is wait for Bonaparte to confirm you got the right item. He would have paid you by now if he didn't have the doubts he no doubt does."

[Mencot]

"Aye alrecht th'n. Lets wait for awhile until Pemo gets back."
