Menik enjoys the food and hospitality, but is still troubled by what the orc had said.

"By the way, have you seen any elves around here lately? Besides me, I mean."

"Wild animals been at the graveyard," begins Pate the Younger before his attention is drawn to Menik. The old man squints at the elf for a long moment before continuing. "H'ain't seen a elfin in years. Not heres anyways. You lookin' for kin?"

The young mother the group met earlier in the day answers many of the questions. "Malcolm just vanished. Went out to the woods to cut trees and didn't come back. His axe was lodged in a stump; nothing strange about that but his other gear was gone. Some 'roundabouts think he run off."

The woman's gaze darts to the wild-haired woman and you figure that she is Rochelle of the missing children. Her voice lowers and she continues. "Rochelle's twins just vanished from their beds one night. No signs or anything, just gone. Poor woman's been tetched since they went missing. Most think they woke and went out and got lost. Menfolk searched but didn't find nothing. Rochelle, poor woman, thinks they'll be home any day and keeps watch for 'em."

Feeling eyes upon her the woman, Rochelle, turns from searching the dim light to the circle surrounding the four travelers. She flinches away from the attention and stares into the shadows eyes darting to and fro.

[sblock=Tasanto]Tasanto sees two small figures in the dim light at the very edge of the green lurking between two buildings. They vanish into shadows but he catches movement that may be them a short distance away from where the two were before. The movement is on the far side of the green from where the group sits.[/sblock]

"Just about how long has this vanishing been going on?" Dolgrin asks after taking a small sip from his ale. The dwarf looks at Rochelle in the distance, hoping that they would find her two children alive in addition to any others.

"These old legs have two left feet when it comes to chasing rabbits." His hands stretch and flex on the table top. "It will be so nice when I can call upon the cat instantly." All of the fingers curl back in, except for one. In a quieter voice, "Remain calm, but we seem to have a couple small spies." The last finger is flat against the table pointing in the direction of the spies.

"I am looking for kin" Menik admits. "My brother Kyle went missing. It doesn't sound like he was around here, though.

Maybe we should search where Malcolm vanished from."

Pate the Younger shakes his head slowly in sympathy for Menik and pats the elf on the hand. "Bad thing when kin goes missing. I hope you find the lad."

"The children disappeared first," answers the young woman. "I would say maybe three weeks ago?" She turns to get confirmation from one of the other villagers present then turns back nodding. "And Malcolm less than a week after that. He was in the woods just past the south field if you want to look it over in the morning.

And we heard the herb woman from Avellino, a village a good days walk or more south of here, went missing some days ago. No one else that we know of."


Tasanto and Dolgrin are having a hard time keeping track of the figures in the shifting shadows, Lem is having a quiet but informative chat with one of the village matrons over specifics of the evenings dinner and some of his favorite dishes, and Menik is talking with Pate when Rochelle loudly sucks in her breath and then abruptly takes off into the dark night. It isn't directly towards the shadowy figures but close enough that Tasanto and Dolgrin are certain she caught at least a glimpse as well and harbors the hope that they might be her children.

Lem frowns as Rochelle moves forward towards the shapes in the shadows. He wasn't sure how to extricate himself, but now he had the feeling he had to move fast. He tries to step out of the conversation and into the outskirts at once, stealthily moving in a semi-circle towards the back of the shapes while trying to keep an eye on Rochelle.

Well, since the woman charged off into the night, Tasanto is going to take the direct approach. Getting up from the tables, he chases after her, pausing just enough to grab one of the tiki torches for light.

Dolgrin politely places his mug on the table before turning to Pate the Younger. "If myself and my companions could be excused for a few minutes..." he says as he grabs his axe and heads off following Tasanto.
