Act 1, Scene 4: "To Skald" (Game Thread)

[Chris1234]

Jerry smiles at Artanis's words, adding as patiently as she can to Adrastia, "What other 'things', please?"

[Jenara]

"My Magic worked on the Singer, a lucky break perhaps. but it worked never the less." Mira starts to eat slowly, fixing her gaze on Elsa a moment, "Enjoying your meal?" She asks with a small nudge under the table. "I think perhaps thats enough for now. Thank you Adrastia for sharing." Mira speaks again.

[TristenC]

Elsa jumps at the nudge, Oh! sorry, she says with a blush. I was thinking about our meeting with the girl. We have a few days to explore here, but should we check out the other inn right away? You know, scope out what we're getting into before the meet?

[Jenara]

"I like that idea." Turning to Adrastia she explains. "We are supposed to meet a Lady called Akriel at The Old Kartakan Inn. She has asked us to find something," Mira explains as she finishes her wine and slowly pours another. "Wanna come along once I see Eriss?"

[Nocturno]

At the talk of exploring Pyros will perk up.

"I agree we should check it all out!"

[kerap]

Artanis quips: "Of course it's always a good day to go fishing!"

[TristenC]

Adrastia nods, Very well. What is it she has asked you to find? she asks, curiously.

Merrick grins at Artanis' talk of fishing. Well, the river to the north certainly seems a likely place. We should have plenty of time to fish and explore the town before our meeting Sunday...

Elsa looks to the group, Should we all check the place out together, or split up and get a lay of the land more quickly? If we do break into groups, i think at least a few of us should stick together... and obviously it would be easier if each one had someone who spoke the language...

[Chris1234]

"I need to check out the papermaker and bookbibders' places," chips in Jerry, snapping back from her recollection of previous event in Faerun.

[kerap]

Artanis grins and quips to Elsa: "Fish are typically not that conversational."

[TristenC]

Have you ever tried to talk to one? The halfling asks, completely deadpan for a moment before spoiling it with a poorly-contained grin.

[Jenara]

"He has, he finds he understands the responses better." Mira grins and turns back to Adrastia, "She wants us to find a Crown, something called the 'Crown of Soilders'." She explains with a shrug. "Artanis if you want to go and fish, then go for it."

[Nocturno]

"Fishing sounds fun, but too many new things to see!" Pyros will knock back the rest of his drink, belch and pat his belly.

He will also snag a piece of bread for the mouse house.

[TristenC]

I can take Jerry to find the papermaker, Merrick says. And anyone else who wants to explore the West side of town. It's near the river in Lower Skald. he explains. That might be interesting... I'll join you. Cross comments.

And I'll go with Mira to the Old Kartakan inn. Elsa says. She looks to Adrastia who nods, Yes, i'd like to hear more about this Crown along the way... Elsa looks at Artanis and Pyros expectantly, And what will you two mischeif makers be getting up to? she asks, teasing.

Allison comes back over to see if the party requires anything else. Erris still has nor returned from her errands.

"That works perfectly." Mira responds, "Allison, can you tell Erris we have arrived? I'm going to place a few things in my room, and take a look around Town." Patting the woman's hand she moves to stand. "Is there a jeweller in town you trust? I have something I would like made and I am but a poor performer." She adds winking at Elsa.

Mira will remove her pack, crossbow and mundane shortsword, leaving just the iron one, and her belt pouch.

[Nocturno]

Pyros will look between Elsa and Artanis a few times.
"I'm going to check out the Inn. Lunch has given me too much energy for fishing me thinks."

"Does that pouch of silver cover lunch?" Pyros will ask Merrick.
