Death in Freeport

[Walking Dad]

"Of course I will help you, Egil. It sounds like a mystery worthy to explore. And the oath makes everything even more interesting!" Wilbur answers Brother Egil's question.

 

[Graybeard]

Brother Egil,my friend, I would be happy to help you. Fortunately my duties to my family are not pressing at this time. Where should we start?

Then, answering Wilbur's question,

You may have seen me around the city. My family owns a shop in the city. We deal in the import and resale of fine liquors. We specialize in brandy, cognaq, various whiskeys, and other fine spirits. We do not, however, deal in wine. We have an agreement with anoher family in the city regarding that.

 

[Voadam]

"Thank you." Brother Egil says, your agreeing seems to be a great relief to him.

"We were discussing possibilities when you both arrived." He turns to the jackal man in the scale armor, Dogrynn, the young woman Arcata, and the erudite barbarian Hinjo. "You said you were going to go back to the Tankard later tonight and talk to that dangerous looking orc you believe Lucius spoke to? Arcata you said you wanted someone to look up what they can find on the Uraqi blade since Hinjo volunteered he can come with me to the Athenaeum and we could all meet here again tomorrow night. Is that the plan?"

 

[Walking Dad]

"That sounds all very reasonable. And what can I do? Shpuld I accompany one of you? But I'm not very good at asking orcs." Wilbur replies.

 

[Graybeard]

Like my new friend Wilbur, I am unsure how much assistance I could provide but I will accompany you to the tavern. Anton proposes.

 

[Voadam]

Brother Egil looks a bit concerned "The orc sounds like he could be dangerous. Lucius was worried about pirates and went armed. The more of you there the better probably.

Hinjo adds "He always sat with his back protected facing the entrance from his smoky shadowed alcove of a booth with his battle axe near to hand. I could not see his face under his drawn hood, but I could see he was a green orc from the skin on his hand."

 

[Shayuri]

"Actually," Arcata says quickly, "My first idea wasn't to speak to him directly just yet, but rather to wait for him to leave the tavern and follow him discretely, to see where he goes."

 

[Walking Dad]

"I fear that sneaking around isn't my strong suit, either." Wilbur excuses himself.

 

[Graybeard]

I must admit that sneaking about at night is not something I normally do. Perhaps Wilbur and I could follow behind you? That way we will not impede your ability to follow this orc fellow yet we will be nearby should trouble arise. Anton suggests.

"I'll follow that orc. Bet I could tell ya where he's headed tho. On ta Scarbelly's ship I'd bet." says Dogrynn.

ooc: Dogrynn is not very competent but very overconfident
