Miltiades Inquisitor of Rao

"Peace be upon you all. I am pleased to anounce that the hobgoblins have been driven from the land. We encountered and slew many, too camps full of them. A few remnants of the band fled the fell place once we had dispatched the majority and they will not be seen again. The old temple remains a cursed place of fell magics, but the threat of hobgoblin raiders has been removed and we were able to rescue a farmer who had been held captive."

"Twas a fun an' bloody battle t' be sure," adds Korbryn. "Cut down scads o' the scum! Har!" The dwarf chuckles and takes a large quaff of his ale. "Ye be seein' any more o' dose blighters about, ye just tell 'em dat Korbryn Rivenshield is a comin' fere dem. Dat'll send 'em runnin', quick as ye like!" The dwarf offers up his gruesome smile, still chuckling a bit.

Excellent!
Elmo calls and raises the mug that just arrived to the table
The lords will be happy to heat about it, don’t know why but I have the feeling you’ll have your dinner in the castle tonight.

You pay your debt to the village friends
Spugnoir remarks and nods to the smiling dwarf.

Hurray!
The people around cheer as Ostler encourage them to do so.

Master Lenuran
The local bard, Redithidoor Halfmoon approach
I will have the honor to hear your story.

*****************************************

Later that day, in the afternoon, you are addressed by a local messenger that tells you that you are to visit the castle in an hour for dinner with Rufus, one of the lords. Burne is away and will not participate. Other guests will arrive as well. Please come appropriate, he especially asked for you to take care of clean cloth for the dwarf.

The Kid does his best to wash the road out of his clothes, but a scout only has one set—and they're for working. Seeing the others eye him, he also takes time to shave, though its patently obvious that it is an unneeded affectation. He nods when they are finally ready to leave.

At the prodding of the others, Korbryn bathes, washing the dirt, blood and grime from his body, hair and beard. The water quickly turns black, and a second tub is needed for the dwarf to finish cleaning himself after all of the recent travel and fighting.

The dwarf cleans his clothes as best he can, and makes sure to wear his new boots and gloves, made from the hide of the blue dragon they had slain. He then cleans and polishes his armor, so as to prevent the best possible image for their dinner with Lord Rufus.

Miltiades will take the opportunity to freshen up appropriately before the dinner with the lord. The baklunish priest will see to his holy garments and symbol, so as to maintain the image of respectability of the church.

Welcome words, bows and applause served with wine, fruits and cheese appetizer begin the evening as guests are attending the party for the new heroes. Looks like the people hopped on the opportunity to have a party and claim your victory as one of the reasons to gather and raise a toast. The main attendees are Burne, Elmo, Canoness Y'dey, Calmer the preist of St. Cuthbert, Father Terjon, Yether the keen the priest of Pelor, SPugnoir, Gister Noshim the stone mason, Jeru Ashstaff, a local respected druid, some other unknown figures from Hommlet that you havent’ met and a respected guest that came from Verbobonc a couple of days ago as a personal guest of lord Rufus.

Rabbit stew, stuffed pork with rice, boiled tomatoes creamed with Elven blue cheese, preserved cabbage, creamed potatoes with strips of veal are some of the main dishes that are served in the castle. Those lords do know how to party and feast.

A bard enters the room between the courses and entertains the guests with melodies on the battle of “Emirdy meadows” and the heroic stories of Burne and Rufus.

Last dishes are honey rolls, pear pies, fresh berries and apple strudels, some of Keoish rare whiskey and home made liqueur from Verbobonc are served as drinks.

[sblock=ooc]If any of you want to speak with any of the guests about some important matters please raise the questions.[/sblock]

Korbryn eats heartily, trying some of each and every dish, and washing it down with as much whiskey and home-brewed liqour as he can get his hands on. He even enjoys the bard's music, particularly one song about Zirat the Champion and Merrick the Bold in their brave exploits against the Temple of Elemental Evil. Otherwise the dwarf remains mostly quiet, sharing a few words here and there with his companions and the guests at the gathering.

Ithiken enjoys the festivities for what they are, but unless someone addresses him directly with questions or information, he excuses himself and goes to bed. The journey will be continuing shortly and he wants to be ready and rested to get going.

Lenuran of Lortmills

Lenuran does his best to clean his clothes and equipment with the help of some minor magicks (Prestidigitation),then sets himself down in a warm bath at the Inn.

Afterwards, he rests up before dinner.

Once at the dinner, he eats casually, as he speaks to each of the towns leaders in turn, regaling them with their tale of adventure, putting emphasis on their exploits in the moathouse, Nulb, and the abandoned temple.

As he regals each one (Burne, Elmo, Canoness Y'dey, Calmer, Father Terjon, Yether the Keen, Spugnoir, Gister Noshim, & Jeru Ashstaff), he tries to gauge each of their reactions to see whether there is anything they might be able to add to his background of the three areas, or information about the so called "Temple of All Consumption" that the woman prisoner mentioned, or whether they were pleased or not that the threats were removed from the area. (Sense Motive +10)

The small gnome figured that at least some of the townsleaders would be disappointed to see the threats go, since they might lose a measure of a rallying cry to their cause.

At the same time, he would try to gather any information he could about Hathgar from the folks. (Gather Information +5)
