[AU] Stone Bones

*Vesune nods, and places the gold on the counter. She speaks quietly with Lykis for a moment.*

"It is very dangerous, the path you mean to take. Are you prepared for what you might face? Do you have the things you need?"

*Wil, as you turn to go, Vesune gives you a hard glare.*

"Luck, of course, we will wish you. But luck will not pay the taxes on our store, brother runethane," she chides.

"It is very dangerous, the path you mean to take. Are you prepared for what you might face? Do you have the things you need?"

*Wil goes over to Vesune and puts out his hand.*

"Um, uh. Vesune, why don't you show me around this lovely shop. Maybe there is something here that would help us succeed on our quest."

Please, please, please take my hand.

"Was there any particular food item and song that they liked best?"

"As you say, we will be spelunking and need to outfit ourselves appropriately. Extra food, water and such as well as climbing supplies for my earthlybound friends here and perhaps some extra light sources. If you have any other suggestions or perhaps something in your store that might help us in our quest please your help would be most appreciated." Phaern replies.

*Kelthet wanders a bit around the store, looking for climbing gear of some sort, and anything else that catches his eye.*

*Wil, Vesune touches your hand briefly and look at the rest of the store.*

"Light, of course, will be necessary. Not just fire, but magical lights as well. We have some lanterns that burn well and cleanly, as well as those that can contain magical lights. Rope, knives, ways of detecting unstable rock, ways of translating unfamiliar languages..." she says, gesturing to several items on the shelves. "However, most mundane things can be found at the blacksmiths or the general goods store. We, however, have some small items of magic that might be useful."

*Kelthet, you notice no climbing gear, but you do notice what seems to be the fanciest piton you've ever seen. smaller than a normal piton, chased in gold and silver and surmounted by a red, faceted stone. There's also a strange dagger with what seems to be an obsidian blade, hafted in smooth, clear quartz.*

Kelthet picks up the two items that caught his eye. He approaches the Mojh curiously. "These - they must be magical? What are they?"

*I look into Vesune's eyes.*

It is so easy to get lost in those honey-yellow eyes. I must stay focused for the group.

"I only have 41 queens. I am interested in the items that detect unstable rock and translate languages. What are these small items of magic that you mention? We could set up some kind of deal. We get to borrow the items you suggest, for all the information we gain. You get your items back and more. Does that sound reasonable?"

 

[Rybaer]

*Leesea looks at Wil in admiration.*

"I agree," she says. "Our best currency at the moment may be an exchange of information. It is often more valuable than coin.

"Please tell us more about what you have that may help with languange translation. It's a subject that interests me greatly."

Phaern watches as the others make their rounds of the store to choose items from their stock and waits as Vesune describes the artefacts. Curious about the old Mojh, Phaern will flit over towards him and ask the dragonman, "Sir, I am curious to know a bit more about your store here. The gentleman at the tavern advised us to come because I believe he thought you were old enough to have known the individuals that we are searching for. I see now that you and Miss Vesune have access to the indelible collective akashic memory. Thus I am curious how long you have been in business and what type of services offer, beyond the items displayed."
