Yurian smiles at Atlas's approach. "Excellent, our final member is here." Again, pleasantries are passed all around. Well, words are exchanged; calling them pleasantries might be stretching the meaning of the word.
After Kendrick asks about "killing stuff," Yurian pauses before answering. "Well, now that we're all here, we can be going. But I wouldn't expect to start waving your weapons around right away, although I do appreciate the enthusiasm, Mr. Kent." He gestures at the improved circle. If we'll all stand here, we can be on our way. Unfortunately, I don't an item such as Mr. Luinil suggested, but I'm sure we can do without..."
[sblock=Martelai]Sorry, I thought that insight roll was just to know the intent of Veruzak's questions. More about the man himself, beyond what CaBaNa gave you, would be that he's got an obvious interest in the arcane arts that seems driven by more than mere curiosity. He seems to have a slightly antagonistic attitude towards others, perhaps born out of superiority or overconfidence.[/sblock]
[sblock=Atlas]We're actually gathered behind the tavern right now, not in it, but it's not a big deal since we're leaving right about... now![/sblock]
[sblock=The Ritual, and Weekend Posting]The ritual is a one-time use ritual, with a built-in return for everyone using it. The return lasts for 90 days. To return to Daunton, you'll stand in the circle created on other side and will yourself back, expending a healing surge. That way, if for some reason certain people need to go back before others, you can just by willing it. Simple, effective, but not a trap where either everyone goes or no one goes.
Veruzak can conduct the ritual whenever you're ready, and I'll have my intro to Haurton post finalized within the next few hours so as early as tomorrow we can have you in front of the Council. Don't worry if you'll be missing for a few days due to the weekend; the posting rates been great thus far, but I only expected 3-5 posts per person per week, so a few days missed isn't killer. If it's a scene that we can run with, we will, but I won't leave anyone behind just because they can't post several times a day.[/sblock]
