[Koboldquest] Delivering the Calzone

Krug

Newshound
The bunch of kobolds rest and recuperate at Gandrew's. You learn he is a legendary baker, and folks come from far and wide for his calzones. Andowym is his wife, a wizard of some ability, who doesn't mind discussing magic-related matters to Kadan.

For two days you are treated as houseguests, despite sleeping in the garden next to the cow, who makes a decent bed when he doesn't move around too much. You are also fed well and recover from your wounds. Meals are grand affairs, and you've tasted nothing more scrumptious as the scones and pies and tea that Gandrew serves to you. (But then you used to have mould stew and lizard marrow, washed down with cave water)

Serk wonders about all that has happened. "We've fought ogres! And... doughmen! And carpets! Well maybe we should not tell Queen about fighting furniture uh?" Target and Drar laze around, enjoying the sun, staring out at the hills far away from whence you came.

The two days pass quickly. Andowyn even has some togs she passes to you all if you wish. If you want you can dress yourself up in any sorta human clothing... she seems to have piles. She also passes you two vials. "For healing," she says. "The lot of you appear to pick up a scratch or two quite often."

Then Gandrew comes up, though temporarily hampered by the cow, carrying two squarish boxes about the size of a kobold chest.There is the smell of tomato and cheese emitting from it, which makes your mouth water. "Now...here are the queen's orders. I've placed a cantrip on it, so it should remain hot as long as you don't open it for three days. Thank the Queen for your business! Do come again. Hopefully the house won't be in such disorder as before. Oh and please do take your cow with you." The cow swats its tail eagerly about.

So who's carrying the boxes? They both weigh about 2 lbs each. And the potions...

Nah'l offers to carry the boxes, having recovered from the burns and wounds inflicted by the pastryman.

He has remained surprisingly quiet in the two days.
 


The Baron

Kadan seemed withdrawn for most of the two days. He spent much of his time in meditation and talking in hushed tones with Andowyn. Occasionally, if you happened to catch it, he giggled to himself - but not "little girl" giggle - more "I have a large axe and watch the funny splash it makes when I slice of his head" giggle.

Kadan pays little attention to the boxes when they are presented. He looks blankly off in the distance.

"We should get back as soon as possible. Mustn't keep the Queen waiting."

He giggles.
 

"No want cow," Taden mumbles under his breath, glaring at the animal that won't leave him alone. Even though it did eat grass. Green grass. But still. That wasn't the point. Looking to Target, he whimpered slightly, "We finally go home now?"

Miki takes his position in the marching order, glancing at the cow every so often and stroking the hilt of his sword.

The boxes are handed over to Nah'l. They feel slightly warm.

"Be careful. The imp that tied up Gandrew has gone. He was the one that caused all the chaos in the house, including our Calzone golem... which you all put to rest. It might be up to further mischief," warns Andowyn.

"Well be off with you now!" she says, waving, as the lot of you embark, cow in tow...
Who's taking the two potions? Just waiting for Zort to sign on...

Zort watches as Nahl takes the delivery boxes. As Andowyn warns the group about the imp, he smiles and fidgets with his spear.

The group sets off on the road home.

"Well that was an odd bunch of customers, especially the two-headed ones. Looks like we'll need new flowerbeds. Look what the cow did!" says Gandrew who probably thought you were out of earshot, as he turns back to the house.

It's early morning as you are on the path home. Everybody's heart feels lighter. Your packs are also filled with two days worth of cakes from the baker's kitchen.

Marching order ? The cow keeps pace about 10' behind the last person, I mean, kobold..
