Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh (This is the Game Thread)

Desolate and abandoned, the evil alchemist’s mansion stands alone on the cliff, looking out towards the sea. Mysterious lights and ghostly hauntings have kept away the people of Saltmarsh, despite rumours of a fabulous forgotten treasure. What is its sinister secret?

Echo chews on the crumbled leaf that was given to her, and follows after the rest of the group. ~Father must have had a hunch that something weird was going on around here,~ she thinks to herself. "Yes, they probably would be surprised," Echo says dryly.

Kim comes after Searos, shrugging at his comment. "I've already said this before, there's always a lot going on the high-ups don't know about."

Is there anything magical in that room?

Kim notes nothing magical in the room.

(Who is entering first? Is Searos standing in the doorway?)

Searos looks through the doorway and not seeing anybody, decides to walk in, peering around.

Walking inside Searos and Kim enter what is indeed living quarters for a number of people, its well organized, with numerous items of equipment on the walls, cooking equipment is placed in an orderly fashion with enough food to feed the expected group for a long period of time.

"Now this is the lair" Kim mutters. "Now, where is Amon?"

Searos shrugs about where Amon is and instead starts looking through the equipment.

"Looks like these guys planned on being down here for a while. Which seems odd to me. Kind of makes me think that whoever is actually doing any smuggling isn't from around here. They're probably outsiders who set up a camp here. Though, I am starting to wonder if this is even a smuggling ring any more, ya feel me? I'm wondering if this is something else."

Vee takes the Dagger from the first man and study it exaktly. Exept of the wolf on the blade It looks nice...
"I don't think you need it any more, right?" she mutters, puts the Dagger to the others in her sash and follows the others.

"You know, Searos, it sounds surprising, but I absolutely agree with you." says Kim.

Searos stops in his tracks at Kim's statement and looks back at the mage. He then just shakes his head and mutters "This little adventure is apparently just full of surprises..."

Brax follows behind, taking the spare dagger she slips it into a fold in her robe, saying nothing she steps into the room quietly. "Interesting." She mutters.

"It appears deserted." She adds, walking around. The Cleric turns suddenly, a door to the left opening to reveal Amon.

Echo follows after the main group now that the queasy feeling was gone. Upon seeing Amon, she crosses her arms over her chest. "There you are," she says, seemingly annoyed. Though, there was a look upon her face that suggested that she might have been slightly worried.

"Now that we're all reunited, what are we going to do next?" Kim's tone sounds slightly mocking, or amused.
"Amon, what did you find on your little excursion?"

"I don't know how I got here. I just woke up here. All I've found is a few books, one of them is a spellbook," Amon says. "You are the first people I've seen since I found consciousness."
