"Well, you're not taking my share. Around seven hundred pieces of gold. But you do what you want with the rest. I'm not going to steal their share."

"Very well, thank you." Raver follows Zeiss, and head for the gold.

"Wait, what do you mean 'steal'?" Rory asked suspiciously.

Realizing that riding into town with the Guardian's equipment could be construed poorly by the locals, Gwydo decides that hiding the treasure for the immediate future would probably be in the best interests for the group.

Putting the gold in his sack, he tells Whis Kor, Javan, Tabran, Rellan of his plan.
"We'll bury the arms and armor here in the desert. We're far enough away from the town and the corpses that it should be safe for the time being. We'll bury it and come back for it later, once we're either leaving town or the townsfolk accept that Harkun was a traitor."

Caladius to the healer “I promise you I will do everything I can to stop whatever is happening; you need to trust me. Prepare for the attack, but do not provoke one, become a source of inspiration for the town, become the healer that the town needs you to be. My duty lies in the wild and I must go with due haste to find whoever has done this. I wish there was a way for you to contact me if something happens.”

Caladius shakes his head "Unfortunately contact will be difficult. I don’t have the ability to weave a simple warning token to give to you, however for now I reside at the inn."

"So... Harkun dead... was that really the wisest course of action?"

"Assassins have killed him. Good ones. Not us." Stated the wolf. "My friend here has come for the reward we were promised and so have I. Let us have it, and you'll never see us again."

"Sorry about that. I got restless while I was waiting. What happened with Harken?"

Ordering an ale for himself, Tabran and Rory, Gwydo sits down to enjoy the cooling beverage and introduce himself to the Olthoi sitting at the table.

"Assassins have killed him. Good ones. Not us." Stated the wolf. "My friend here has come for the reward we were promised and so have I. Let us have it, and you'll never see us again."

"Exactly. I think it would be preferable to leave this town. Too many people who are afraid."

"Uh huh." You can tell the Orc doesn't believe you at all, but he doesn't press the issue. "Well unfortunately for your greedy purses I'm afraid that I hadn't even had a chance to send off to the Guildhead for clarification on the situation yet. And with the current lock down, since everyone's terrified that a Sho company is going to come stomping over the desert sands at us, I can't send for it now." He adjusts his glasses. "When things die down a bit to the point where Post isn't restricted anymore, however, I will send as soon as I'm able."

"He's dead," the healer says listlessly. "Killed... probably by Sho, and we're probably next." He gives a defeated sigh.

Caladius not seeing Evanar at the inn surmises that he might be at the Guild. Once he arrives he catches up on the information at hand. “I have just had a chat with the towns healer, the gnolls are not responsible for Harkun death. The means are beyond anyone abilities. The healer expects an attack soon, and I agree, I think it is time to recall all guild member to defend the town.”

"That's terrible! How did it happen?" Kolson tries rotating his newly healed arm and is relieved to find it in working order and with no more pain.

The Orc looks up at Caladrius, a bit of a bemused expression on his lips. "So because you killed Harkun, you are now perpetuating this lie about the Sho 'invasion'," he adds with tangible sarcasm, "and want me to recall members to help defend? Well," he laughs, "even if I didn't know you were lying, unfortunately for you, this Guild hall has not much else to add other than your wonderful party. Myself, three adjutants... and that's it."

Kezrinthka returns in Common, "The pleasure is mine, Gwydo. It pleases me that you were not put off by my request to meet with you. I had feared that with all of the unrest in town you might have feared ambush. Where may I ask is the rest of your group?"

by Evanar Sun Feb 24, 2013 12:53 am

Raver looks irritated. But accepted his worry. He turns and spoke to the orc once more. "Also... The Gnolls are innocent. Harkun tricked them into signing a treaty where they would be villified. They are willing to give reperations if you would allow them into the farms. The proof is with my companion here."

Raver turns to Zeiss to let him show the document.

As he sits at the table, Rory eyes the insect warily, shaking each time he witnesses slight movements of each appendage. His mind feels like it's covered by something slimy to the touch. He nearly wretches, and eagerly grabs for the ale when it reaches the table.

"I have no idea," he admits. "There was this poison, and it looked professional. All we have is speculation." He looks up at the Red Mage. "You should probably get going, I'm going to have to close up shop soon."

"Great. He thinks we killed Harkun. And I won't get my share now..."

He showed the document. It was frustrating. Should he leave town and not come back?

"We already showed him the contract."

Remembering her manners, she turns to the other two at the table. "My name is Kezrinthka of Worker, proud member of the Circle of the Written Word. May I ask your name?"
