D2: Lost Manor (nimisgod judging)

The chest is tough, being bound in iron. But it yields to the relentless strikes of ao'Thuir. There is no misfortune awaiting our heroes inside, beyond errant splinters and choking dust clouds that is. Amid the wooden wreckage is a scrollcase.

A casual read of the scroll within reveals that these are title documents to the Manor and the estate it is built upon. Ignatious is overjoyed by this new development.

His wife is less so.

"These documents prove ownership all right. But you know what they say about possession and the law"

"What do you mean? You have the papers, we just need to find the manor and the authority of teh place and you get possession of it." tells Ridik. "After that, you can do what you, as selling it for a good price. We though it could be possible your lands have darkwood, a precious wood, which should raise the value of the lands. You could either sell it at high price or open business."
 

"So now we know where it is and have the documents to proove that you own it. Let's assert your ownership and go have a look." says ao'Thuir, huffing a little from smashing the box to pieces.
 


Richard be's eloquent.

Richard admires ao'Thuir's handiwork and is slightly disappointed at the meager rewards after such a buildup in expectations. As Richards' eyes follow the subsequent conversation, he turns towards Ignatious and his wife.
"We have invested our time and many of us are quite eager to help you solve this riddle... however it would seem there is dissension between you.
Though I do not speak for my compatriots it seems clear that you, as our employers, must be in accord before we undertake any further action."
Looking back over his new friends, he smiles weakly at his own outburst, suddenly out of words.
His bashful silence turns a questioning glance to those gathered, "uhm, right?"

Gardner listens to the blows from the greatsword in the other room. When they stop without being followed by screams he says to Rinya, "Let's go check it out".

Upon hearing Richard's comments he says, "Maybe we can go give Slim a visit, while our patron's decide what to do. I have a feeling that they won't be left alone until we get the man in the hat, and Slim is our only lead to him. Then we should see what's going on at the manor. If our employer's don't want to stay there, they can surely earn a profit by selling it."
 


Ignatious readily agrees to Richard's suggestion. "Yes, yes. Let's confer, Heather"

His wife sees the logic in the party's advice, though her temperament almost gets in her way. A physical claim of that house was the most important. She silently nods and leads her husband to their bedroom to talk.

OOG: Who is marching off to find Slim Pickering at the Green Sailor?
 

"I think I could be persuaded to go look for Pickering," Rinya says while she takes the leather pouch off the nail by the door. She'll then remove the glowing pin from where she wore it and put it in the pouch, she'll then wear the pouch around her neck.

"I'd like to go if Russna could grant me some of her gifts first", Gardner says looking towards Ridik.
