"Thanks Terry! If you ever get some down time, you should look me up if we are still in town. I like getting to know new people! They don't call me Pyros Traveler Extraordinaire for nothing!
" he will wave to the man and bounce out of the store.
If he can see Artanis, he will skip over to him and show off the hooks.

Artanis Auir
Artanis quietly remarks: "You sing very well. That's a talent I do not possess. We woodsmen tend to listen or learn animal calls."
And when Pyros comes bouncing out of the store showing him the hooks, Artanis smiles broadly and says: "And what do you have there, Pyros? Hooks enough to catch an entire school of fish!"

"Its my love." Mira manages to say before Pyros comes rushing out. "Enjoy your fishing and make sure Yasir doesn't fall in." Chuckling she looks around for Elsa.

Artanis, Elsa, Mira, Pyros, Yasir: Blacksmith Shop
The warrior and the halfling join the others outside as Pyros exits. Terry gives the kender the smallest of grins. Well, you boys have fun! hmm... I don't see Cross anywhere... oh well. You ready Mira?
Cal and Cross: Silver Scale
I have not had a familiar scroll for some time, but there us a shop in Skald you should try named The Stone. It is on the main road in the East side of town, very easy to spot.

Cal's face goes flat. "Well, he killed a cat once. Jumped on it and broke it's neck. Ate it afterward."

Hooking an arm onto Elsa's back she nods. "Come lets go shopping." she gives the boys a little wave and walks to the dress shop.
(OOC: We are going to Skald tomorrow if all works ok).

"If you are going to catch one... you might as well catch them all! Terry said we should try the General Store for the line. Maybe they will know what kind of bait to use in these parts! ... anyone know where the General Store is?" Pyros will cock his head to the side.

Artanis, Elsa, Mira, Pyros, Yasir: Blacksmith Shop
The women bid the rest of the party well and backtrack to the Blue Bolt. The shop is open now, and Marie is moving about adjusting things on the counters that really don't need it. She looks a little haggard and her hair is not tied back as it was yesterday but frames her face, concealing it. Marie gives a start as the two enter, one hand jumping to her chest. A ragged sigh of relief escapes her when it is clearly only customers.
Morning... here for your friend's dress? The tremor in her voice falls off gradually.
Oh! I have some sketches for you to look at! She quickly brings several leafs of cheap paper on which she has made some designs.
What do you think? She asks, obviously excited but looking at the drawings rather than the bard.
Cal and Cross: Silver Scale
My pleasure, Serath replies, with a small bow of his own. Cross notices the girls walking by past the open window.

[Sketches for Mira

Mira looks at the pictures with interest, her eyes drifting to Marie on occasion.
"These are well drawn, you have some real skill.." flipping through each she settles on the first pictures. "These are all really great, but I think perhaps this one, I know where my best features are, and sadly my legs are not it." almost without thinking she puffs out her chest. "This would suit me so well, and it will make an impression." Looking up she fixes her gaze on Marie.
"I do hope you haven't been up all night drawing these? I was always going to buy a dress, in fact I'd like this one, and to browse the shop." Touching her shoulder lightly she casts her eyes over the dresses. "How much would you need for materials?"

Elsa and Mira: Blue Bolt
Oh no, I love doing sketches! Marie shakes her head, providing a split-second glimpse of a dark patch on one cheek.
We... we were out late for the festival.. you understand... As the bard continues, she brightens a little,
Don't say that, you have a wonderful figure! I could never pull off a dress like this, but you seem made for it. I took everything into account when I made the deigns, but I do still need to take your exact measurements. Mira asks about the fabric,
Well, if you want it in Satin the material, alterations and everything would be about three gold. Buuuut... she says playfully,
If you like silk, the word slides off her tounge like the caress of a lover,
It would only be 6... Oh! Excitedly she rushes the back counter and returns with a fine, green, silk shawl. Laying it on Mira's shoulder to conpare with her coloring, the seamstress actually smiles a little,
It goes so well with that bright hair of yours.

"Oh the Silk. I have never owned anything silk in my life!" Mira lets out a little gasp as the silk brushes her shoulder, "I love it, how much for this too? And I'd love something for tonight, that shows my assets, I'll obviously let everyone know the dress came from your shop." Watching her closely she tries to get a glimpse, nudging Elsa.
"I was at the festival, but I had far too much to drink and ended up sleeping it off." Noting the comment on her hair she flicks it back softly. "You like it? Its a pain, but.. Say just a moment, you are very pretty, silly girl, I bet half of these would look amazing on you! Doesn't she Elsa? OOohh Elsa needs a dress too, she's wearing one of your dresses to my show too."

Elsa and Mira: Blue Bolt
The shawl is only a single gold piece. I can start your dress right away and it won't take but three or four days before it is ready for alterations. Of course I'll need half the fee up front before I can begin. It might be a little too quickly to alter an elegant dress to fight you properly for tonight, but I may be able to do it with a combination... Marie quickly returns with a pair of corsets and a matching brown satin skirt.
You can wear one of your white blouses beneath if the second is too revealing... I think I have a gold scarf somewhere that you could pair it with...

"Ohh this one!" Mira grabs the second corset with a little squeal. "So this, the skirt, the scarf, the dress, the silk shawl.. Something for Elsa.. I'll pay you it all upfront. I'm heading off to Skald tomorrow I think but I'll be back in a few days. Why don't you do your measurements while Elsa here does some browsing. I know you don't see many people her height, but you can help her? Cant you?" Her thoughts come out in a massive flow, she NEVER got to shop like this in Palanthas.
