Clockwork, Steam & Sorcery - Episode 2

Miriah shakes her head. "No, I was looking for some people, but they haven't come yet. I think I'll wait outside, if you don't mind." She smiles at him.

"Suit yeself, then," the surly bartender replies, returning his attention to the glass mugs before him. "In or out, makes no difference to me, just stay outta the way of paying customers."
 

Miriah flashes him a bright smile, then saunters out the door, resisting the urge to run to her waiting co-conspirators. Mouse chitters on her shoulder.
 

Forge, Froud and Yara were waiting for her at their lookout spot, trying to look inconspicuous but failing. When Miriah wandered up, Yara's facial expression sagged with relief.
"Did y'see him? Big dwarven fellah, hammer on his belt? Did he see you?"
 

Miriah nods eagerly. "Yup, he's there all right. Got a couple of friends with him too. He didn't seem to notice me, though." She appears uncertain whether she should be happy or upset by that.
 

Well? Did he have the hammer with him? If so there was no crime. If not we need to investigate further. Forge says. Really all he can think of is the ale, That''s why he's back.
 

Froud nods, with a 'Hmmm'....rubbing his chin 'So, what's the Plan?'.

OoC:Man,we have no plan, we suck,hehe...
 

Miriah looks a bit crestfallen. "I don't know. I didn't see it, but that doesn't mean it's not there! Dwarves are kind of short, and he was in the back and surrounded! I guess I could go back in, huh? I told the bartender that I was looking for someone." Mouse sits serenely on Miriah's shoulder.
 

Yara looks pensive as she tries to work out a plan audibly. "Okay, how about this?" she suggests, stooping to the ground to scrawl a rough draft of her plan into the black earth. "Miriah goes back in, confirms that the big dwarf has the hammer. If so, she leads him out into the back... and we'll be waitin'. We'll have the element of surprise so that we can brain him - knock 'im out cold. Then we take the hammer. Gets a little more complicated if his friends come along, but we've got two wizards on our side; should go in our favour, right?"
