SEGMENT 014

Tallask and Sorren look to see where and whom spoke the name "Krook". What you see are three city-slaves with rags covering their noses and mouths. They are peering into what looks like a well. One of them looks ill.


Odten seems to be winning over the boy. The boy picks up the food and greedily consumes it. The boy holds out his hand for payment first. If none comes quickly he shrugs his shoulders and trys to lead you down the street. He is careful to not lose the slow moving feeble looking Pterran.

"Haas is hiding from the Templars down here. Do you know what he did? Is there a reward?"

 

[Ashrem Bayle]

Sorren looked at Tallask and nodded in the direction of the city-slaves.

As he approached them, he reached out with his mind and very subtly touched the subconsiousness of the closest of the three. An uncomfortable chill, as if they where being watched, passed over those nearby.

[OOC: Sorren manifests Befriend.]

As he drew near, he nodded.

"I believe I overheard one of you speak a name familiar to me. Do any of you know this.... Krook?"

While Sorren tries to bond with the street rats, Tallask walks over to the well, fairly certain what he might see. He peers in, wondering what the dead body of Krook will look like. He also keeps his well-worn longspear in plain sight.

 

[Jarval]

"No reward, they want to find him themselves. I think he may have seen more than is good for him to know. Shall we say that we feel that it would be better, both for his health and our interests, that he stay alive." Odten replies to the boy's question.

Walking alongside Drinchek, Odten whispers to the human. "I don't entirely trust the boy. Be ready in case this is a trap."

 

[Jeremy]

Drinchek shuffles along beside Odten and croaks in hoarse Pterran, "As well you shouldn't, he's just trying to stay alive like everyone else, he has no love for us or any other. But as long as he stands to gain something and lose nothing, he'll help."

Drinchek is favoring his stiff left leg and it's giving him somewhat of a hobbling gait.

SEGMENT 015

Tallask and Sorren go to the city slaves. One looks ill and when Tallask walks over he moves aside. The others though they acknowledge his presence continue to watch below. Tallask moves very quickly to the well and puts his head over the well and discovers the wind was going from his back. A strong sickly sweet armona smell reaches out and loosens his last meal. Tallask becomes sick from the smell of the city sewer and fertilizer processing area for the city's crop fields.

While Tallask leaves, the other city-slave returns looking a bit green still. One of the other two slaves calls out in a weak voice - Krook....Agent Krook....you have visitors here.

A few moments go by then you can hear something climbing out. The slaves give a wide birth.

Sorren, holding his ground since he did get a whiff of it at a distance, watches a dwarf climb out of the sewer entrance. He is coated head to toe in sewer waste. He seems unbothered but it.

In a gleeful manner- Hiya! I am Krook. What may I do for you? He holds out a hand.

SEGMENT 016

Drinchek and Odten follow the boy through a series of crooked alleys of makeshift tent houses. The homes here are constructed of anything available for use; wood, bone, cloth, skins and loose stone. You are in the true poorest section of the city.

Both of you hear something behind you as you reach a deadend. The boy's demenor changes. I must ask for any more food and money you have. There are three more boys and a young woman now behind you. Each have small clubs that could very well have once been pieces of the buildings you passed by.

 

[megamania]

Unless you folks want to get something else at the market, you have reached the Tavern- await actions.

 

[Jeremy]

Drinchek unshoulders his satchel and pulls out a day's meals of hard rations and begins distributing it.

"As for the coins, those take a moment to get to... Hang on while I grab them out of the astral," Drinchek croaks hoarsely.

Drincheck silently manifests Astral Construct III without moving.

In front of him a mound of shiny slick ectoplasm pours out the astral as Drinchek moves up to it as if to search through it.
