[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 5699362, member: 16069"] [B]Magnus?[/B] Early the next morning… Although not as early as it should have been – there have been many events, strange, or otherwise, this morning. It’s probably best to start at the beginning… The Inn staff wake the adventurers at first light, all save one. Magnus is missing; his room looks like it has seen signs of struggle, although Kyalia is certain no signs of any other occupant – perhaps he was struggling with his own dreams and thoughts. A search of the Nentir Inn ensues, much to the chagrin of the other inhabitants, most of whom are roused from their beds at a little after 5 AM by the hue and cry, but nothing, well nothing save some angry patrons. Sgt. Thurmina – tired but otherwise in fine fettle, arrives at the Inn soon after, keen to get the adventurers on their way. By-and-large the increasingly desperate Sgt. is ignored – the remaining heroes are desperate to find out what has befallen Magnus, the search expands, although still at silly O’clock in the morning. Eoffram eventually arrives, sees the shape of things and orders that runners be sent to all guard houses and gates to discover the whereabouts of Magnus. He insists in the meantime that the heroes eat, and ‘make ready’. And thus it is thirty minutes later that the adventurers learn that Magnus left the Inn, and indeed Fallcrest, at least two hours prior to their wake-up call. He left via the Wizard’s Gate. He even left a crumpled note with the Watch Commander there – a Sgt. Murgeddin, a stout dwarf, the note reads – [I]Sorree[/I] Murgeddin, briefly questioned Magnus it seems – it being strange for a fellow dwarf to be taking to the roads in the half-dark on his own, Magnus however didn’t say much of interest, only that he had to go to Hammerfast, and that it was important… And thus the mystery is solved, or at least partially solved – for now. We advance an hour, to 6.30 AM – most people are up and about, the Inn is busy. Eoffram has been as good as his word, he has located a good deal of the mundane equipment requested, and procured two weeks trail rations for each of the adventurers. Eoffram has also managed to locate the following ‘specialist’ items - Potion of Healing (x1) Flask of Holy Water (x3) Everburning Torch (x2) The Council Member looks pleased with himself… However, that’s not all Eoffram has - [I]This is Sarge… sorry, I mean Velani – I’ve asked her to come with you. Sarge… sorry – I did it again, Velani is a very resourceful individual, I’m sure she will prove an excellent addition to your group. I wish to assure you – this is not a question of trust, just… well, I will sleep safer knowing that Sarge… sorry again, Velani were there with you…[/I] Eoffram shrugs but looks unmoveable – Velani it seems is going. [I]Welcome to the Hunt Sergeant Velani. Now let’s away, there’s goblins to kill[/I] Kali’s impatience to be on the road is evident, he welcomes Velani, the others follow suit. Viator is next up – [I]It will be a pleasure to have you with us, Sergeant Velani.
