[QUOTE="megamania, post: 6280447, member: 9255"] THE HIDDEN 05 THE FINAL WARNING SEGMENT 048 “EMPLOYMENT” 3/23/14 NYMM 24, 999 RAF really has nearly had it with Truth. Why get involved with Nines? They nearly killed the warforged as he lay there but the artificer arrived and explained things to the group. Either members didn’t care or didn’t care to understand. This bothers Truth some but he does feel responsible for Nines’ current state of mind (or lack thereof). “We need money” declares RAF angrily. They march down to the hiring board on the docks and find a curious note. A gnome from Morgrave is looking to hire adventurers. He has a meeting time at a tavern nearby at night in two days. NYMM 26, 999 Professor Assimo ir’ Lenni of Morgrave University is quietly sipping a drink at the Mermaid’s Mischief. This tavern has women that are… of a specific moral code and appearance. Witt seems to approve. As soon as Truth sees the studious gnome he regrets coming. Quietly he whispers- “we should go now. Leave the place…. Before something happens.” RAF ignores him and looks for the contact and sees him. The gnome is telling a story to a large chested woman who is laughing loudly. The gnome wears glasses that make his eyes look bigger than giants. Scrolls cover his body like padded armor. He has a bag with more scrolls and rolled up (and heavily traveled) maps. He looks harmless- even pathetic. “You are seeking adventurers?” States RAF. “Oh good! More help!” Cy leans to Persia- “More?” “I had hired a group earlier this week but…. Well things became tenuous at best.” RAF stares as he tries to guess what the gnome just said. Fancy words are not a fighter’s weapon. Damned Gnomes and their words. “What are you hiring adventurers for?” asks Tom (whom has collected a new bear animal companion). “I am looking to adventure into the swamp and map the area referred as The Mist.” A subtle hush crosses over the tavern. The gnome looks around as if someone broke wind and he is trying to hide it. As his gaze crosses over Truth he hesitates and blinks repeatedly at him. “What are the Mists? I have heard of the Mists but know nothing of it.” Replies Witt. “People refer to it much like they do the Mournlands.” “Yes! They are similar!” says the gnome with a great big contagious smile. “Like the Mournlands- there is a mist there that people enter and leave with never passing through it. Others never return. Whoever maps it first will be forever talked about within the halls of Morgrave. The gnome looks to Truth whom has his hand covering his face somewhat. “What happened to the others?” asks Cy. “Mishaps. Poor souls were not up for the adventure.” “But you are here.” Adds Tom. “Lucky I guess.” The gnome quickly and happily adds. “Lucky my nuts and bolts” Truth grumbles quietly. Persia notes his disdain for the gnome but keeps it to herself. “What are the terms?” asks RAF. Silver a day for each of you. You get to keep a portion of anything we find that Morgrave won’t want.” RAF nods and agrees. “Excellent! Let’s begin tonight!” Shouts the gnome happily as he hops out of his chair and tosses a few coins onto the table. “I don’t think this will end well.” Whispers Truth to no one in particular. [/QUOTE]
