Blagarm doesn't seem to miss a beat. He responds in an equally low tone, "Of cahrse! Why don' we ahll goh dahn an'ava look." He calls across the common room to an adolescent youth leaning against the wall as if he's bored, "You thahr! Britam! Come ovahr hear an'ahrn yahr keep!"
The boy bounds over to the bar, "Yeah Pop?"
"Take care o'th' bar whilst Ah give these gen'lemen a tahr o'th'cellar." With that, he whips off his apron and with a flourish sends it sailing across the bar to smack the boy in the face. As the apron slides clear of his eyes, it reveals an awestruck expression like that from a newsboy who's been suddenly promoted to editor, "Y-y-yes sir!"
Blagarm reaches down under the bar and throws a catch. A second or two later, he opens up a portion of the bar designed to swing up, revealing a little half-door in the paneling under the bar. Swinging this wide, he squeezes his voluminous frame through the opening and makes his way over to a double-swinging door opposite the one leading to the meeting room. He opens it revealing a bustling kitchen and extends a directing hand, "This way gen'lemen."
The group follows him through the door into the kitchen where the smells of food preparation, sweat, and burning embers mingle with the clatter of clanking pots, dishes, curses, and orders.
Blagarm pays no heed to the cacophony and quickly strides to a small cellar door in the corner of the kitchen away from the fireplaces. Opening the door, he makes a gesture similar to the one he made at the kitchen door, "Ah'll goh afahr yah if'yah don' min'"
The door reveals a staircase that is more like a stairwell. Though brightly lit, it is hard to make much of the cellar beneath from the doorway.[sblock=Perception 23]The air carries hints of an odor reminiscent of a bonfire long after it's been put out[/sblock][sblock=OOC]News flash! Anyone following the volcano in Iceland? Pretty wild huh?[/sblock]

"I smell smoke. Just faintly though. Anybody else?" Talon asks the others, a thought of fire being used to cover up evidence springing into his mind...

[sblock=OOC]I'm going to play Rujah until I get an idea of how to write him out.[/sblock]The party proceeds down the stairs to discover that the cellar is, in fact, the same embattled basement of several weeks ago, with one very important change. As Talon attempts to show Firebyrne the secret door in the cask, he notices that the sixth cask has been removed, and the wall has been bricked up where the door once was. Blagarm's voice resonates from upstairs, "'Ope yah fahnd wha' yah're lookin' fahr. Spen' 'lotta time fixin' th'mess yah made four weeks'goh! 'Ad tah cook ribs fahr 'alf th'time jus'tah ge' rid'o'th' smell o' the fire yah set!" The door slams and Rujah turns around hearing something heavy being dragged in front of the door.[sblock=OOC]Go ahead and post your reactions, and I'll continue with the encounter later tonight (EDT).[/sblock]

Jin drew his father's blade and moved past Rujah to pierce the door. He jammed up to the sword guard, and with a screaming grunt he retracted the blade. "You better run while you can, Barkeep!"
Descending the stairs after his futile attempt, he drew his second blade with his off hand. Jin's breathing was increased as he looked at the others. "I must beg your pardon, Firebyrne; I had you pegged as the one not to trust. So, now what?"
[sblock=Perception 22]Link
I am looking for exits and traps. I am especially paranoid about being trapped down here. [/sblock]The ronin scanned the room, looking for another exit besides reopening the hole. He spoke absently while he looked about. "The barkeep might not be a villian though; perhaps he takes us for part of the bandits. Or, he is a villian, and we must also be weary of the guard captain; he could be on the take. Good thing we didn't leave our weapons with the boat."
[sblock=OOC]I'm sure a hit was impossible attacking through a door and a heavy something, but just in case, I rolled a 22 to hit.

[sblock=WD]Has Riardon been ported to the new wiki? I can't find him there. For some reason the old one is down and I can't see his CS.[/sblock]
