"Don't know, we're lookin' for a hero named Throlar, doesn't say anything 'bout him not bein' undead." Quote

"Well that seems like a major oversight, did your superiors actually bother to give you any description of the people you're looking for or did they just say 'here's a list of names, find the people on it'. Who gave you these orders anyway?" said Throlar, trying to keep up his diplomatic tone. Quote

Seriously, don't even know whey I'm still talking to you. The rest of you got anything to say?" "Seriously soldier, I think we can send these people on their way." Quote

Your council seems to be doing a rather shoddy job of giving you orders if they can't even be bothered to tell you what the people you're looking for look like." said Throlar, attempting to use his diplomatic training to surreptitiously make those listening start to doubt the council's competence. "But then again what do I know? It's was probably a minor oversight that will be rectified shortly." he continued. He was about to smile disarmingly before he remembered that the mask he was wearing obscured his facial features completely. 36 minutes ago, Waterbrick Down said: "Seriously soldier, I think we can send these people on their way." "Yes, this encounter has lasted far longer than necessary methinks. Well, it was nice meeting you all, we'll just be on our way now, goodbye!" Hiving finished speaking (diplomatically of course) Throlar turned to leave (hopefully with the others in tow). Quote

"No, my friends here have said it best." Karie replies. "I'm merely travelling with them for protection, what with those Heroicans on the loose. I'm just moving along to my next performance, you know, being a bard and all." Karie points to the instruments on her back. "So, uh, if we could get moving, I'd appreciate it. Please." Quote
Asphalt Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) There is safety in numbers as they say. It was an honor meeting you sir. I hope to see you once more in quieter times that I might hear your stories. Vindsval knuckles his forehead and walks after Karie and his undead friend. Edited March 12, 2018 by Asphalt Quote
KotZ Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Kiray smiles inwardly at the good idea of throwing away the stool she used as a weapon, which could've given her away if she kept it. "I agree with my tall friend here." Quote

The detective turned to the Party, "Now, be on your way folks." "Hoples, this'll be on your head, you hear."Warlock briefly glances at the heroes, some of whom he still was thankful for for all their help with his previous cases, he smiled nervously. "So be it."The detachment of paladins watches warily as the group continue on towards the Winking Gargoyle. It doesn't take long before they finally reach the small inn. Two werehound brothers greet them cheerily. "My, my, aren't you an aclectic lot." Quote

"Sorry to bother you, but were looking for someone who contributed an article to the Eubric Herald recently, you wouldn't happen to know who that would be?

Palathadric Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Hoples words cause me to look on him with an expression of sadness. I turn to the others. "You know, a while back we were wondering about whether Heroica he has been doing its job here in Eubric. In some cases, I think we haven't. Perhaps we haven't opposed the houses as strongly as we should have or sided with them so readily as some did, but when you see such gratitude from someone due to his past experiences with Heroica...it is quite touching. Before, I would never have thought of Warlock as the kind of man to do something like that either." Quote

She looks around the inn, hoping no one heard the monk. She speaks to Pretzel in a hushed tone."I think you and I agree on more things than you believe Pretzel. I've never really met Warlock, but he seemed like a nice guy. Look, it's people like Warlock who we need to get on our side: the middle man, the person who doesn't look to the Founders with any sort of love. If we can get Filly on our side, we can hopefully turn the tide here. I want Heroica free from the grips of the interests of the houses so it can serve people like Hoples and those who need our help, but we're not going to achieve such a goal if we're dead. Keep mention of Heroica to a minimum, for all our safety." Karie grimaces. Maybe she was too hard on Pretzel earlier. She pats him on the shoulder."I've got this group's interests at heart, Pretzel, and I think you do to. I'd hope we can both realize this is bigger than both of us. History has it's eyes on us."
