[QUOTE="mips42, post: 8752215, member: 6746242"] [[B]In the Meetinghouse[/B]] Vashk turns and glares at you briefly, looking indignant and snarling "Proof? These... [I]men [/I]need none. Every day is a new story, taller than the last. Every tale is denied. This, of course only strengthens their belief.' "Except for that of of the Jade Lion," Beltran injected. "It is still unaccounted for, last seen near the lighthouse at Skyhorn." "Bah! The Lion is one ship of dozens, hundreds even, that sail the waters of the Sea of Hope." Vashk paces, almost stalks across the room. "Who of the captains have you not talked to?" "Only two," Beltran replied. "Captain Gaspar..." "A bandit and a thief," Greig stated flatly. "Barely better than a pirate." "And," Beltran continues. "Captain Coppertree." "Ahhh!' Vashk turns suddenly on Beltran. "There's your hope. Coppertree and Hest are known friends. She'll be wanting to find the Lion, or its remains, for her own sake and, if it happens to suit ours as well, so much the better. "The Merchant guild will offer... A Hundred gold for her and her crew to investigate the fate of the Lion and her captain. And, should they happen to find some creature or two that are stirring things up, deal with them. The crew can even keep any spoils they take." Silence fell over the room for a long moment. Beltran looked at Vashk, "It could work." Grieg stood, "the mining guild will add another fifty gold, contingent on bringing back the cargo of the Lion, if not the Lion herself." Vetan also stood. "the Enchanters will add 50 as well." "There you are, Beltran" Vashk said grinning, showing his rows of teeth. "Two hundred good gold pieces. Surely this should be enough to entice miss Coppertree and her crew to sail." "I'll go propose it, as soon as we adjourn." [[B]In the Black Gull[/B]] Throngs of bored sailors rapidly getting drunk was not a recipe for a quiet afternoon in the Black Gull. To be fair, the main thing keeping them at bay was their rapidly diminishing reserves of money. And, with their newfound hero, the tiny Zrock, they were celebrating. Hard. Everyone had seen the cretin Greb push the little Kobold and, just as clearly, they had seen Zrock push him back. The fight after had been short and, even a modestly drunk sailor could quickly tell poor Greb was highly out classed. Truth be told, the others had likely saved poor Grebs life. But, at least for now, they all insisted on buying the little fellow drinks and pouring them into, mostly onto, Zrock. The crowd around the bar was thick and mostly behaving but, likely withing the hour, constables would be arriving to break it all up and take those too drunk to get back to their ships to the already-crowded holding cells.
