Rayman turns over and starts to snore, but Lorbin will take no notice.

"Breakfast is on the table, we leave in an hour."

This will cause Rayman to spring into action and gather his supplies.

GG cleans up, checks his weapon, dresses, breakfasts, cleans up again, checks his weapon again and is ready.

He asks Lorbin, "Ready! So, wWhat do we need to know? And what else should we know?"

After breakfast Lorbin will approach the duo.

"Ok, everyone out." He will wait until the room is cleared and the table is cleaned.

"Ok, fellows, here are the particulars of the meeting place."

He will roll out an incredibly detailed map of a temple.

"Here are the basics."


1. Where the meeting will take place.
2. Stairs down to the flooded foundations.
3. Main worship area.
4. Other meeting room, should not be in use.

While looking at the map GG asks, "So is this house," gesturing to the one in which they stand, "warded against any magical spying?"

Rayman being a worshiper of nature will look at the temple with some awe.

"They certainly could have used the space better."

====================================================
"Yes, as you may remember from your attempt to detect magic, we have substantial magical defenses." Lorbin will let a small crack of pride show on his face, mostly in his eyes.

"So when are we due here and how early can we arrive? Is the maximum duration of the meeting already agreed? Will the building complex already have been searched, including the water, against unwelcome surprises? Exactly how do you want us to function and be stationed where? And how will our group arrive and depart?" asks GG, all business now.

Flatbelly will just nod at GG's questions wondering why the temple lower levels are flooded.

"We are to be there for noon. We will need to leave in just under an hour, hopefully the Young Master is ready. The meeting is to be 2 hours, but if they are truly making progress it may last longer. The temple does have their own guard force and is taking care of the perimeter interior. You will be stationed in the main meeting room as close as possible to our Ward, without interfering with the talks. We are to arrive and depart by the front entrance of course." Lorbin smiles at the questions. You can read on his face, excellent choices.

==============///================
Does Rayman ask why they are flooded or just wonders in his own head?

"Why the down levels are flooded?" Flatbely asks, "What about upper levels? Is the meeting location vulnerable to shooting from upper balconies or windows?"

===============================================================
(OOC: He was wondering that while the conversation was going but waited to see if it might answer by itself. Since it didn't he will actually ask it. Do they enter the temple with boats?)

"At the level of the meeting, is the ground wetenough to show boot marks? For example, from a silent, invisible person?" asks GG, moving on to his tactical thoughts.

"No, I don't believe the floor is that wet. The lower levels are underwater to allow our Triton friends easy access to the temple. The windows are all solid, but the perimeter will be guarded inside and out by the temple."


Lorbin snatches a paper and pencil from his pockets.

"Since you are from out of town, I will draw the approach for you. The front door is facing the Cladmont side."

"Thank you. That's good to know," responds GG. "Are the tritons corruptable? Bribary or leverage?"

'Tritons...' Flatbelly thinks to himself with marvel and nods slightly.

GG shrugs, "Never met any. Happy to do so."
