CH 2: The Search for More Money

[HorizonsDream]

Jocelyn crosses her arms over her chest as she watches the door close in front of her. "Is it just me, or are those two a little weird?" she asks Val and Ouragana.

[Nuke]

"Ya, I don't see what she sees in the little man."

[xelphyn]

"Ah, yes, I almost forgot."
"Prepare your ears," as he continues he speaks more passionately and dramatically with each syllable " my name, is... Dahndodat Nayadond Kotetaut Lemeloan Honsoth Tohstubson!"

[Breila]

Ouragana nods at Jocelyn's remark "Yes, they do make more fuss than necessary."

[Jenara]

"Good, i like to know who i am dealing with." moving to the door she adds. "We know how the world works, those others are not so worldly wise, especially the cleric. I think we have both had encounters with the law."

"Sorry." she says opening the door wide. "Come in, lets sort out this situation." she says nothing about the incident just now.

Once inside the room, the party quickly splits up the gold. Now with each carrying almost five pounds of gold coins, they can discuss other topics.

=========

Everyone receives 240 gold pieces.

[Jenara]

"So we have a lot of gold, what do we plan to do with it?" Arei asks sitting on her bed, waiting for the others to give their opinions, "Plus do we have any clues, anything to do round here?"

[HorizonsDream]

"Well, I talked to Brock," Jocelyn says, as if everyone knew who he was. "There is a dig on an island about some ruins that might be pre-Eonian, but some tribal are getting in the way," she says. "Then the guild is hiring extra protection for a shipment to Doubloon. There is also a string of murders going on around here too. That elf woman is a bounty hunter, or at least that is what Brock told me."

[Jenara]

"She spoke to me for a short time, Tia is indeed a Bounty Hunter." Arei gives Jocelyn a shrug. "I don't think she will be all that helpful, she might talk to me..."

[HorizonsDream]

"She might give us some information if we decide to solve the murders," Jocelyn said.

[Jenara]

"She might, let me talk to her, and I will see what I can do."

[HorizonsDream]

"...so then what are the rest of us suppose to do, then?" Jocelyn asks.

[Jenara]

"I suggest I get what I can from her, and then we see what we can do as a Team... Or we could visit this Island." She suggests, not sure really what to do.

[Breila]

Ouragana had taken out a few more coins than the 60 she owed to Jocelyn, now she has three of them in her hand and tries to juggle them, with rather limited success at first. After they landed on the floor a few times, she aids the process with some magic (cantrip), just for exercise.

"I guess the best job for me would be on that ship to Dubloon, unless they already have experienced storm sorcerers there and think they need no more of them" she says between attempts.

When Areilon speaks of "what we can do as a team" she asks: "Are we a team at all, then?"

[xelphyn]

Dahn chimes in"Wouldn't it be ironically convenient if the murderer is hiding on this island and its on the way to Dabloon?"
