[Palathadric]

Cheapy chitters excitedly, but then says nervously.

"Unfortunately, I won't be able to open closed doors though..."

Nevertheless, he hops onto the windowsill.

[Mencot]

"Unfortunately, I won't be able to open closed doors though..."

"Th't be alrecht, just team up withst th' fairy if ye face trouble 'nd ye willst be al'well!" The big man says with a smile.

While searching the farm in a super secret pm, Sir Cree decides to spike up his hair.

Cree dazzles everyone in the super secret PM, but no one in thread...or vice versa?

Kheyli pockets the items and moves closer to the girl, trying to get a look into the other rooms.

Roll of 6.

As Kheyli quietly tries to pocket the items, an unseen pan had been supporting itself on them and it crashes to the ground with a loud clatter, Emilie practically bursts out of her skin, and turns around... What will the heroes do???

Keliim turns back to the window to see what it was, trying to keep down he can see that something has crashed to the floor. But he can´t do anything really when he is outside and the window is too small for him to fit. So he just hides... but if Cheapy is nearby he whispers to him to run around the livingroom and hopefuly the girl will think it was the mouse that did the sound.

Quintessa, that still was keeping Emilie busy, holding a lecture and talking about royal nonsence to her before to crash. She will now ask Emilie in a worried voice, "What was that dear?" Trying to get the girls attention to turn back, so that Kheyli can hide if she wasn´t seen already.

Kheyli attempts to hide if she wasn't already seen

[Palathadric]

Keliim turns back to the window to see what it was, trying to keep down he can see that something has crashed to the floor. But he can´t do anything really when he is outside and the window is too small for him to fit. So he just hides... but if Cheapy is nearby he whispers to him to run around the livingroom and hopefuly the girl will think it was the mouse that did the sound.

Kheyli attempts to hide if she wasn't already seen

Quintessa calls to the girl, but the nervous girl is already gone. Kellim is too slow to communicate his message to Cheapy, nevertheless, as Emilie rushes into the living room, Cheapy is the first thing she sees, given that Kheyli has managed to slip behind the couch.

"A rat! A rat! Kill the horrid beast."

Some banging and clattering sounds from the backroom, but no one comes out.

Cheapy runs around in circles frantically.

"Help, heroes! Help! Don't let her kill me!"

What will the heroes do?

[Mencot]

Quintessa will try to open the door and walk in. If door is open and she manages to get inside, she will go to the room and catch Cheapy and put him out the window.

If Quintessa does not get inside the house and Kheyli does not throw a smokebomb, Keliim will throw a smokebomb inside.

[K-Nut]

So I am throwing a smoke bomb or will Keliim?

Kheyli twiddles her thumbs until she figures out what to do.

[Mencot]

Keliim throws a smokebomb inside. Hopeing that someone inside would go to an other room and find the freaking statue, so that they could get out of there.

[Palathadric]

Kellim throws the Smoke Bomb in the room, and the room is filled with the smoky haze. Shrieks of panic erupt from it. Quintessa tries to open the door, but it is locked. If Kheyli can make it to the hallway she might be able to give her entrance though.

"What do I do heroes?"

[Mencot]

"What do I do heroes?"

When the stealth didn't work Keliim runs over to the frontdoor also, before he runs he speaks out "Seek th' statue!" "Maybe someone hear it."

He hopes Cheapy will quickly try to look for the statue as long as the girl is in panic and Kheyli will find to open the front door.

[Palathadric]

Kheyli brushes past Emilie and heads to the door, unlocking it and pulling it open for Quintessa and Kellim to enter. They see a hallway in front of them. Cheapy stumbles out after Kheyli. Which room would they like to enter?

The door to the near right is the living room door.

Just in case it isn't clear from the picture, there are two doors on the left and two doors on the right.

[Sandy]

Quintessa listens if there's any sounds coming from the door on the left, and if there's only silence, she enters through it.

Keliim lifts Cheapy up on to his shoulderpad again and then he whispers, "Good idea tae split up, cause we habt not much time. There be four o' us," he looks around

"Naa, thre? Wh're th' hell be Cree! O' well If ye Quintessa take th't door on th' left, me 'nd Cheapy willst take door on th' far left 'nd ist it alright then th't ye Kheyli take th' door on th' far right?"

[Palathadric]

Quintessa enters the building, feeling more experienced and wiser for her conversation with Emilie. She turns to the door on her left and opens it while Kellim and Kheyli remain locked in conversation.

Need I say that the room appears to be a storage room and it is filled with all sorts of exciting goodies?

[Mencot]

There was not going on a "conversation" between Keliim and Kheyli because there wasn´t time for that, it was more like stating opinions. So Keliim sneaks over to the far left door and listens if there is any sounds inside, if not he enters.

[K-Nut]

Kheyli goes to the door on the right, listens, and enters slowly should she hear nothing.

Kheyli goes to the door on the right, listens, and enters slowly should she hear nothing.

Kellim approaches the door, and listens. He hears a funny, gruff voice saying something he can't make out. Kheyli listens and tries to open the other door, but it appears to be locked. The three heroes here a shriek from the living room.

[Mencot]

Before the girl scream comes from the livingroom, Keliim ignores the strange gruff voice coming from the room on the far left. He turns around and sees Kheyli trying to get the door open across, he says to her. "Be it locked, wouldst ye step aside!" And then he takes full force and kicks the locked door!

[Palathadric]

Kellim heaves himself against the door and it seems to bend to the force of his blow a bit, but then it falls back in place. Perhaps something else might work.

However, while Kheyli and Killim puzzle over the door, a screaming Emilie comes rushing out of the room directly towards them. Unfortunately, in this case, talking is not a free action.
