The Enemy Within: Shadows Over Bögenhafen

[Neurotic]

"I would help you elf, if you would be less terse and offered more information on what those tasks might be. I think I'll head for the library and see if I can get some meaning into that binding circle.

You can join if you want.

The rest of you, ask Hans about the details of people disappearing, or let him show you around, give you contacts and such. Let's see if we can find out what's happening here. Maybe the followers of Chaos are organizing again."

 

[FourMonos]

"Gorim! Hey wait up, I've got an idea! Hans said that the homeless have been disappearing, what do you think about going back to the fair grounds and ask the dwarf we met if he knows about the missing homeless people'"

Gorim Grimmson

"I can do that ..." Gorim says with not much enthusiasm.

"The library!" the elf exclaims, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Perhaps our minds are more in tune than they appear to be."

 

[Dr Simon]

There is no library as such in Bogenhafen, but enquirers are directed to the Temple of Verena (goddess of Knowledge). The priestess in residence, a motherly woman, politely asks what knowledge it is that you seek.

Meanwhile, Gorim heads out into the Schaffenfest to find the drunken dwarf from yesterday. He is no longer in the stocks, fortunately, but the Festival Court is open for business. Perhaps the magistrate knows where he is, and in any rate the town owes you for the recovery of the goblin.

 

[Neurotic]

"Circumstances forced me to explore the sewers and I was impressed by their design and stoutness, so I'd like to see any documentation you may have about them. Including names of the architects espeacially if they are dwarven.

Also, are there histories of the events when the Chaos reared it's ugly head that relate to this area or your town in particular?

My people have histories, but they understandably focus more on it's effects on dwarves and dwarven fortresses. My colleague says the same goes for the fey. He may have some additional requests."

Gorim Grimmson

Gorim is looking around until he spots the magistrate: "Hey, hum... magistrate. I'm looking for the dwarf who was in the stocks yesterday."

OOC: I meant for Garold to accompany Gorim if that's alright.

Garold wanders through the fair after the stout dwarf. He was quite distracted by bread cooked in hot oil...

He catches up to Gorim after he reaches the Magistrate.

Aaryn, haughty elf

"I would like to look at any books you have that can tell me more about the term 'Ordo Septinarius,' if you please," Aaryn requests.

Aaryn and Kildrak, Temple of Verena

"Chaos and sewers, you certainly have some strange interests, Master Dwarf, if I may say so," says the priestess. "I think you'd have more luck at the Rathaus for information on the sewers; I'm sure they'll have plans and so forth in their records. As for chaos, let me see..."

She turns around as Aaryn speaks up.

"Oh, I've heard of the Ordo Septinarius. They've given a lot of charity to the Temple of Shallya, and Bögenauer. Some sort of semi-secret society amongst the Merchants Guild, I think, you know, like a dining club really with lots of Classical allusions."
