City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn IX

[Rystil Arden]

"Five years back, I think. Yes, has to be five. Brandon had just turned four."

Sorgram's brow wrinkles trying to follow the conversation about arcane mysteries, the topic utterly beyond him. He looks almost relieved when the farmer comes in asking for help, until the conversation turns to returned towers and hauntings.

Quietly he sips his drink, fearing that perhaps adventurers need some arcane understanding and that he has perhaps found another role for which he is unsuited.

"So, where's this tower. And why do you claim it's haunted? Why don't you just leave it alone?"

Eanos, human monk

As the others begin to question the farmer, Eanos sits back and--as is his wont--allows the more social among him to gather information from the man as he observes.

"The tower's haunted because of the dangerous spooks that emerge. It's northeast of town. I don't really know much more--I've got to get back to my family. Anyway what wants to help can come to the tower or to Briarton and then the tower. I need to go."

 

[Velmont]

"A magical, so called haunted tower. Haunted seldom means just that the person ignore what is inside, but it is dangerous, it isn't sure it is ghosts that lives in it. What do you think of that." Rinaldo asks, looking at Tenebrynn and Ashnar.

"A tower to the southeast," Laynie whispers softly, staring at her caramel apple on its little stick in her hand.

 

[Knight Otu]

"My apologies, good man, entirely my fault that I got distracted so much." Ashnar says as he notices the farmer approach, and then listens to his plight.
"So we have a tower that comes and goes 'mysteriously,' crewed with what a farmer may consider 'spooks'. It is hard to formulate a good theory on that. I think we can rule out that the tower simply turns invisible. A curious farmer would find that out, and why would the 'spooks' only emerge when it is visible? The tower might be teleporting, or worse, plane shifting. Implying that there may be powerful magic at work. If it is plane shifting, it might go to the ethereal plane or the shadow plane, home to certain undead, which are commonly called spooks. But it is hard to tell what to expect."

 

[Velmont]

Rinaldo looks at the young girl. "And you, what do you think about that. It is in the smallest pot that you find the better oitment told my mother, I think she was right, you seems to haev assimilated a lot of thing in your order. Maybe you know something."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"...When I was little, I used to live in the wilds around that area, at least until a cruel-hearted orc armed with a barbed spear and lies about using healing magic killed my doggy who had nearly died to protect me and the orc and his friends from bad guys..." Laynie admits.
