Brechin: The halfling is easy to pick out inside the store getting gear for him and his horse. However, another small figure is again tugging at you.

"Stay then and prove yourself less than a man Sir Dwarf. We valiant two shall show those despicable orcs the error of their ways and bring order where chaos is present!"

The dwarf shrugs and cosees his legs (no small feat for a dwarf)"Orcs are stuff that I´d like to see dead." says. "But I have no quarrel with those orcs and nothing to gain them. Unless any of the present have something to pay me with."
 

THe halfling collects his rations and then goes to the street.

Seeing the paladin venture forward, the halfling smiles. "Looks like you have also found a mount... do you think they make double saddles so that my kin and I can ride on the same horse?" He motions to the other Hin that happened to be pulling at the paladins sleeve at that moment. "I think he wishes to join us." He motions to the bazzar and asks the paladin "Do you have everything you need?"

On their way out, they pass the tavern, and the dwarf inside the tavern where they hear his words. "Nope, no pay... might as well stay here and have another drink and hope that we succeed. In fact have one for me!" He then continues past the inn with the other three.

"what?" says the dwarf. "I don´t like your tone, short person. You may think I´m a selfish coward: but that´s not true. Selfish, I´d maybe accept it, but not coward. I´m just looking for ways to amass gold. Gold! yes, I like it, the marvelous weight, it´s yellow color and how does it shine under a torch´s light. When I´m depressed, nothing lifts my spirit like shaking a bag of gold and hear it´s delicious clicking sound. I like gold, damn it! Now, if those orcs had a hidden treasure, I would be the first crashing into them, ready to extract the secret of where´s my gold hidden out of their shaking guts. But NO way if I´ll be losing my time!"

"Now, I like platinum even more!"

Yelling back over his shoulder, the halfling replies "Then you might as well come. It sounds like this group of orcs is a raiding party. River-whatever is probably not the first community to be raided by these orcs, and they are sure to have loot. If that's the case, you can hardly return the loot, for how do you know who gets what? If that were the case, then someone would have to keep it, so it might as well be us." He then turns back to the road.

Cowardly? No, selfish, probably, greedy? Definately! the halfling thinks as he walks his horse.

"Now you speak like a sensible person" says the dwarf, running to reach the party. "I just hope they raided a couple of rich caravans, though a temple or two would do the work; those temples with fat clerics, silver chalices and golden altars, not stupid little shrines with wooden idols. I hate them."
 

Someone said:
"not stupid little shrines with wooden idols. I hate them."

"But of course, who would care about places where you pray to gods :rolleyes: " Says Anderian as he starts walking along with the other halfling and the noble tall fellow.

Dwarf, you should be ashamed. Taking what does not belong to you? You should be ashamed! And to mension holy temples?! I am not so sure a character such as your's is welcome to join our valiant group.....

Brechin scolwed at the bearded man and spurred his mount onward regardless of whether the dwarf answered. I do not trust this one. I almost inclined to fear for my new boy-like companions He thought to himself.

No, I'm sure to one as you it wouldn't.....

Brechin sighs and rides on.

My Mentor, why must I deal with lowly types such as these? Knowing no answer would come and knowing his Mentor's words when it came to dealing with those of the dwarf's kind. "Tolerate those who seem to be worse than your enemies. Even the lowly deserve chance to prove themselves otherwise."

The young warrior turned to see that the halflings were following and went on.
