"By that reas'nin', put me down fer night 's well. 'though if it means I have'n try to sleep with the vexin' sun in my face, you're all gonna have'n see how I get like when I'm grumpy."

Sturm holds out his cup, in toast-like fashion.

"And here's hopin' we do run into our bit o' trouble, so'n I'll have some'n to write home abouts that won't fill me da' with shame... Vexin' pick-up job..."

He mutters into himself a little more, then there's a dim spark of recollection in his open eye, and he leans over to Zumar.

" 'at reminds me, ken I pull ye aside when we get in wherever this place is we're goin'? I'll need'n send a letter, and the 'ounds took out me writin' hand."

Sturm holds up his left hand, which bears the fresh scab of a mean dogbite across it.
 


Throwing his cloak back, Torindel takes a seat at the table and proclaims "I would be best to sit watch when either the sun still glows slightly across the horizon or when the stars shine brightly down upon us. My keen eleven sight grants me greater sight than that of most humans but I still require some light to see by. Though I myself do not need to sleep all night, I would do fine after about four hours or so of rest, so my eye's can lend themselves to the other watches also."
 

Returning from the room Tiggle shakes his head saddly. "A good chap that Llolian seemed, sad that he drank himself into such a stuper. Well it seems your planning is going well thus far so whenever your ready to call it a night, I have prepared extra nice rooms for you all to relax in. We shall see on the morrow if our elven friend is sober enough to join us or if you perhaps wish to seek a replacement. Mind you five may very well be enough to cart a simple supply of alcohol back here so do as you like."


OOC: I would like to give Snipehunt a little more time thinking that maybe he can not post on the weekends, but I do plan on posting the start of the actual adventure tomorrow, so if in a few hours no word from Snipe feel free to find a replacement if you like.
 

"Ay, mebbe he's got the sense'n wait for a real job to come along."

Sturm gathers his drink and his weapon.

"Jus' tell me where to lay myself out an' then go have yer cook 'n fix me up another slab o' whatever meat that was earlier, maybe with some taters or carrots or somethin' come grown from the ground can go with... Ain't good to sleep short of a full belly, me mum always tole me, else ye wake up in the mornin' weak 'n wastly. I'll come by an' pick up once I've got out the armor 'n ready for bed."
 

Smiling at Sturm's frankness, which is one of the things he likes about him, Torindel states "Why I must agree with you old chap, A nice tender slab of beef with some herb roasted veggies does sound right delicious...and would probably be the best meal we will get for a few weeks. Since it seems Llolian won't be making it, then I am all for taking care of this shipment ourselves, a few more coins for us anyways!

As soon as I have finished my meal after it is cooked I will be retiring to bed and getting ready for our departure at daybreak."

"I was thinking more along the lines of a nice beef stew. I suppose that we dont really need another compainon. See you all in the morning I guess"
 

Tiggle sets about preparing everything for his crew to have a nice final meal in town. Getting everyones orders ready exactly how they request them, he throws practicly and impromtu feast. After all the merryment of the evening he bids the crew goodnight and hopes they rest well. Saying he will meet them outside the Inn on the morrow to see them off.



OOC: Cut to the morning. I am going to start you off assuming you have done everything you needed to do in town. If there is something you did want to finish up real quick we can rewind and assume you did it.


The days sun is fresh over the horizen, high enough to dance off the rooftops of all the buildings of the city. Tiggle, shades his eyes used to his Tavern lighting scheme and deffenetly not used to being active this hour. "Alright head out and be safe. Heres the gold to pay for the shipment make sure you keep a close eye on that, never know what creeps from the bar heard me call for a shipment pickup. Keep your eyes open the roads rather safe, but that never stopped someone from wadding on overconfident and finding their last bed in the soil. Take care, see you in a fortnight." Tiggle shakes each of your hands and remains standing watching you march off until you are out of sight.


OOC: I need someone to claim the 500gp Tiggle gave you for the order. It is ina large bag and can easily be concealed in a backpack. Also I would like the official marching order.
 

"I'll carry the gold, seeing as I was the one who sort of rallied people around this mission. As to a marching order, I would suggest a fighting type in the front and back, me and the archer in the middle, and someone else about 30 feet ahead. Someone ready and willing to take the first hit, but quick enough to see it coming and move."
