[Gobtales] Nightwatch

D'Bruuhl steps forward and brings out his moneybag, shaking it provacatively in front of the barmaid. "Arktul's been arrested, but he wanted to make sure you got your share of the night's take."

Goubido watches the halfling knight, and his squire, until they have collected themselves and left the area. He even goes so far as to follow them until the front door of the tavern is nearly out of sight.
 

Goubido do you mean you're exiting the tavern?

The halfling squire helps the knight up and they both cripple to what appears to be the stable. You hear some neighing.

The woman stares at d'Bruuhl and swallows. "I.. I don't know what you be talking about!!"

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I'll go into the tavern when these two halflings are along their way. Don't want 'em setting up an ambush or something silly like that.

"Very well, then," D'Bruuhl says. He tosses the clinking moneybag in the air, catches it and puts it away with a smile. "If you don't want your cut, that's your business. But now for another bit of business ... new business."

"Now that Arktul's in the clink, I'll be taking over," D'Bruuhl says as he continues smiling at the woman. "I'll keep my mouth shut to the sheriff and keep up the same program as before, but I want double what Arktul had ... for my employees, of course." With that, he indicates the others.
 

Rakanishu smiles contentedly, impressed by D'Bruuhl's convincing speaking skills. He changes his stance to a more confident one when D'Bruuhl demands an increase in wages so as to include his 'employees'.
 

Ashgyad grins wickedly, and pats his spell component pouch - intending to frighten the barmaid into fearing being turned into a toad or somethin'... unnatural.

The woman's eyes flutter nervously. "I... I.. I'm not the person running this. You'll have to speak with Majkis, the owner of the tavern... he's not in right now," she says.

D'Bruuhl and Ashgyad realise she's bluffing in her last statement.
Rakanishu notices that there appears to be some movement over at the open mouth of the metal toad. Someone appears to be inside watching...
 

Rakanishu grins micheviously and points over to the metal toad.

"Well if he's out......who feels the need to watch from the safety of the metal toad?" he asks quietly, trying not to alert the hidden observer.
