Curse of the Azure Bonds chapter 1: Tilverton

Sidra hands over her javelins and clubs without a qualm, nodding gravely to the guards. She is quite eager to see the inside of the temple with all its decorations, and begins to slowly meander through, trying to catch the cross-section of the crowd.

OOC: ok, sounds good

The guard finishes his search and waves Charum, Sidra, Dominic and Ferrik through in turn. Then he raises his hand as Dawn approaches.

By Gond, ya can't bring a friggin' ape in 'ere! 'E'll have to wait outside.
 


Xi-Selorn enters in his new finery and takes his place on the large bench, observing the setup and analyzing what type of combat arena it would make. He observes the benches and ornamentation for items that would make improvised weapons, a torch stand as a possible staff, a nearby bench or chair as a club, etc. Once his plans are ready in his head for if action is needed he will then begin to observe the people attending.
 

Smiling to himself, Dominic moved to take his seat for the wedding. At least if there was any trouble, he wouldn't have to rely on his fists.
 

Again, the juxtaposing of flowers and plants alongside the temple's usual decor of mechanical devices and objects is somewhat odd to you. There are some nearby (within 30 feet) unlit torches and lampposts that could be makeshift clubs and staves if need be.

Anya and Durlan come over to welcome you (strictly speaking, you are there at their invitation after all). I thought you might like to see this, Durlan says, showing you a tiny box containing a gold ring with a large central diamond surrounded by a ring of ambers and again by an outer ring of amethysts. Princess Nacacia's ring, fancy yes? The amber's represent Gond the Wonderbringer, as does Gharri. The Amethysts stand for Cormyr, as the Princess does, and the diamond brings them both and all other things together as one. I'm serving as Gharri's ring-keeper. You see, back in the early days of the church, a thief once stole a ring from a best man. Since that time, the groom gives the ring to another member of his party to keep safe. When the time comes, I give it to the best man, who then gives it to the groom to present to the bride.

We still have a few minutes, want me to see if I can get the groom's attention?

Dawn

“His name is Kooga, and he will - of course - not enter here. I don't think he really wants to see the wedding either, though. He has a simple mind and it is not quite up for those things.”

Making sure, that Kooga will wait somewhere, where he won't scare any visitors of the wedding, Dawn then proceeds inside. The druid has brought no weapons, knowing quite well, that the guards would not want those around.

Inside, the halfling curiously watches, as Anya and Durlan come over to welcome them and show them the ring.

“Very beautiful.”
