Heroica RPG - Quest #64: Discord in Duplovia

[Wedge09]

While Sarge looks to see if there is a lock on the inside of their cell, Alexander try to dig the ground with his shovel.

[The Legonater]

Delfrin. I should have known.

Sir?

Yes, we'll have to move things ahead of schedule. Go on.

Thank you, sir. Leaves.

As for you, we'll have to get you in secretly. Delfrin doesn't have the large walls Duplovia does, but security has spiked because of the assassinations. If you go at nightfall, we may be able to get you in past the guards. It's a risk, but we'll have to take it. When you're in head to the Delfrin underworld, and be on the watch for any large warehouses there. The Hand of Throngs have been known to operate out of them.

Sarge finds no lock on the inside, and Alexander's digging reveals the ground is solid stone, there is no way to escape.

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge nods at everything his captors say. And hunkers down to wait, his head aching.

"I guess we should hurry then. The sooner we go, the sooner we'll get back." Thalion turned to Morcrass, "Lead the way..."

Alexander follows Thalion and Sarge.

[The Legonater]

Night dawns, and Morcrass leads the heroes out of Duplovia, across the mighty field to about half a kilometer out of Delfrin. He wishes them luck, the rides back to Duplovia. The heroes creep forward in the grass, and find themselves at the border of the shining white city. In the distance, a group Delfrin guards stand watch. One notices your movement.

Who goes there?

[-obelix-]

With Brickington as backup and using diplomacy, Thalion speaks, "My companions and I are travelers from Eubric, and we are a bit lost. Would you mind pointing us to the city of Delfrin?"

[The Legonater]

It's right behind me, genius. This is the Delfrin border. What are you doing sneaking in at night?

"We were commissioned to bring something to Delfrin and we got lost. Now that we know where we are, we will be on our way. Thank you for your assistance." Thalion bowed slightly and started walking in the direction of Delfrin.

[The Legonater]

Not that fast, elf. Credentials?

[Pyrovisionary]

Not that fast, elf. Credentials?

Sarge hands the guard the business card. which reads

"Sullivan's Fishing and Shipping"

Jack Simons, Sailor

Ooc: This is the one I got from quest 60. Page 7 I think

[The Legonater]

Hmm. It's an older code, sir, but it checks out. Don't see many fishers in Delfrin, though, especially not at this hour. Oh well, continue forward.

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge smiles ridiculously and says to the universe in general "Violence doesn't solve everything?" and continuing towards Delfrin.

[-obelix-]

Thalion nods to the guardsmen, and follows Sarge towards Delfrin.

"Indeed it doesn't..." he responds, thinking Sarge was talking to him.

[Wedge09]

"Sooner or later it will end badly for Sarge..." thinks Alexander giggling while watching Sarge's brazenness with which it makes its way through the guards; then he follows the rest of the group to Delfrin.

"No arguments here. One minute he kicks people in the face, starting a fight, and next he gracefully avoids conflict by flashing a card. Like you say Alexander, that cant end well..." Thalion adds with a smile.

[The Legonater]

The crew continues into the white city. They are dazzled by the shining buildings, but force themselves to keep going. They follow Morcrass' prior instructions, and eventually find the Delfrin Underworld. It is a seedy place, full of gangs, violence, and dark acts too foul to be spoken in any tale. They eventually find themselves face-to-face with a towering warehouse, closed off to them by a massive wooden door.

[Wedge09]

"Up Sarge, knocks to the door." says Alexander pushing forward the Rogue.

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge turns to the party, and says "Right then this is how I say we do it. We knock. They open. Alexander shoots. But we could always pretend to be... Oh I dunno; inspectors?"

[-obelix-]

"Or we could say we are couriers... When they ask 'what are you bringing' we can say proposal to do the job properly, bringing the news of their mission's failure and this as a proof." Thalion says tapping the engraved crossbow. "We ask to see the man in charge and once we find him, we work our way down." Thalion looks on the sides of the buildings for guards or alternate entrance into the warehouse.

In the darkness, Thalion can see no other enterances.

"They'd thank us for the knowledge then slam the door. Why can't we knock nicely and shoot them in the face?"

"We can, I just thought something like that might be a bit more sly then barging in and shooting everyone in the face or blasting the door with a fireball and shooting everybody... But since you and Alexander seem to like this, go ahead."

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge smugly walks up to the door and turns back to thalion and Alex "Ready? Blast em when they open up!"Sarge then knocks three times on the door.

[The Legonater]

The heroes hear a voice from within.

"Who is it?"
