[QUOTE="Nephis, post: 9243899, member: 20459"] [I]Mylistra is glad that she heeded Nemo's suggestion to forgo any finery, as she sits in the basement of the dockside pub. Ravenswood's atmosphere is generally a bit smoky - due to their industrious manufactories - and she always feel as if she cannot breathe fluidly while in town. But here? Inside this room? The pipesmoke seems to have solidified, floating like the airboats of Blackstone that she's heard Jendi speak of (not that she entirely believes him, but...). She brings her attention back to the wizened old halfling sitting in front of her, Nemo's ... aunt? grandmother? "Oba Rubee, you should have seen them! They are powerful! And they'll help us break Beppa out..." Nemo's eager voice peters out slowly. Rubee takes a deep toke from her pipe, holds it in, then slowly blows lazy rings with her exhale. None of the others seated at the long table - Nemo's brother Thierry, another (younger) ... aunt? Gelvira, a goblin ... Swishka?, and two other halfling women whose names the witch cannot recall - none of them speak. They all watch their elder intently. Nemo squirms anxiously for a moment, then stills. Mylistra shares a glance with Toriq, who shrugs before returning to her study of their table companions, Rubee in particular. Jendi leans forward with a slight smile, glancing at each with an air of having met them before ... as perhaps he has. Finally the old woman speaks in a deep raspy voice. "[B]If [/B]we help you, how do we know you will keep your word? You big ones aren't known for helping our kind. Although ..." She considers Mylistra for a long moment before continuing, "I have heard something about [B]you[/B]. That why you wanna help this chit? Solidarity of [B]our [/B]kind?" She makes an inclusive gesture between herself, the witch, and some of the others seated around the table, one that doesn't include any of the males. Then she cackles. Looking over at Nemo's brother, she gestures with her chin. At that, Thierry points to several of the others seated there, and they all stand up and head for the bar. Left sitting at the table are Rubee, Mylistra and her friends, Thierry, Gelvira, and Swishka the goblin (Mylistra is not sure she got her name right - was there a "v"?). Nemo starts to get up as if by habit but sits back down, as his brother places a hand on his shoulder to return him to his seat.[/I] [HR][/HR] The party would like the third option - "Provide a piece of blackmail..."
