Scun steps up to back up Anton. "Yes, we take her to her father." he says bluntly.

Thurgan smiled at the comments by Anton, though it likely looked like a grimace under the beard and mustache. Hefting his gear and making certain his weapons were close at hand, Thuegan made ready to take the girl back to her father.

"Sounds like its decided," Thurgan muttered.

RillianPA

"Good lets get moving." Rillian steps up next to Thurgan, one hand idle scratching his shoulder (no where near his greatsword, nope not a chance).

*Larue arches an eyebrow and looks to the hands moving to the weapons, then shakes his head.*

"I see, so that's how it is. How disappointing that you will not be able to join us. Well then, I shall leave my Sykhia in your most capable hands. Please see that she comes to no harm, my friends," he nods slightly to his men, and they walk off out of the cave.

Tandi simply nods. Anton's argument makes sense and she has nothing to say further, so she continues on her way as well.

OOC: Did anyone stop Cade? or did he leave already?

ooc: I thought Cade was waiting for "Once everyone is ready to move on..." to "[mount] up on Alton and [ride] back to the town..."

By the way, as we travel back, I'm going to be looking for anyone following us.

*The group travels back towards town, walking through the darkening foggy evening with Sykhia carried unconscious among them. Anton cannot make out anyone following them.*

*Eventually, they reach the town again, where they return to the inn. They cannot find Maurice there, however. A skinny man that they don't recognise is behind the counter.*

"Oh, how wonderful, you really saved her!" the unknown man greets them on their entrance, "I'm Tom, and I'm watching after the inn while Maurice is away."

Bront

"Maurice is away? Where did he go?" Cade asks.

'This just keeps getting odder and odder' he thinks to himself.

Rystil Arden

"He was summoned away on urgent business just a little while ago. Thank you for slaying the foul dragon that threatened our town!"

Bront

"Where did he go? I think it's best we speak to him immediately."

Cade pauses for a moment, "How long did the dragon terrorize your town anyway?"

Rystil Arden

"Oh, he's not going to be back for a while. He's left for Lord Larue's manor. Apparently the lord had urgent need of his alchemical skills. That Maurice, he always did dream that he would one day become a court alchemist, and perhaps now he'll get his chance."

Keia

Thurgan ran his hand through his beard, "Why is it now that he'da get 'is chance?" This entire situation was completely confused to Thurgan, who was beginning to suspect they should just drop the girl along side the track and continue on their way.

Rystil Arden

"Guess something came up that required an alchemist's skills," Tom shrugs.

The whole thing smelled of fish, and not the kind that was grilled on a cookfire. Tandi listened to the men banter as she looked around the room, to see if anything was in disarray or different from when they had left.

*Tandi notices that some of the alchemy equipment is gone, an amount that looks like it could be reasonably carried, since the whole laboratory of equipment is far too cumbersome to do so.*

(OOC: Scun doesn't have that spell prepped at the moment to the best of my knowledge)

Brain

(correct, no detect prepped)

Scun grunts. "I would have done that before if I could."

In an aside, Anton mentions, "Well, I do not want to go to the mansion. I am fine with leaving the girl here and leaving, or waiting for the father to return." Anton looks around, "If this girl kills herself before the father returns, that is not our issue. We brought the girl back."

RillianPA

Brain

Pulling Rillian aside (out of earshot of any npcs), Scun says to him, "The spell won't tell me much. I'm sure she has magic on her by now, but it could have been put there by the caster who 'detected' before. We should make our decision based on instinct. Let us avoid this whole situation. Everywhere, people seek to manipulate us and I'm getting tired of it."

Bront

"I don't know what else to do, but leaving the girl just don't seem right. Nothing's right about this, the dragon, the girl, the lord, the father. Just seems staged." Cade says.

RillianPA

Rillian takes a closer look at "Tom".

ooc: Sense Motive, is he nervous, uncomfortable, or is it all just normal?
