[Gobtales] Nightwatch

[Mirth]

"This makes a nice bonus," Goubido chuckles as he begins emptying the till into his own pockets. "Let's take these talls to jail. We won't get anymore help from them." He begins looking around the tavern for anything else of interest.

D'Bruuhl turns his head towards Goubido's chuckling, [gob] "Remember, we gobs don't steal anymore. You can carry it with you to turn over to the sheriff, if you want, for safekeeping, but I wouldn't suggest keeping it unless you want to deal with Nitzbuk's anger later." [/gob]

Then the cleric begins pulling on Majkis' arm, "Seeing as you're not answering any of my questions ... On your feet!" He turns to the others, "I guess there's nothing left to do but to march these miscreants over to the jail."

As the entire motley group begins to exit the Toad, D'Bruuhl calls out to Majkis, Sprog and the woman, "Just remember, if you try to escape we won't hesitate to stop you with deadly force. And I'm right out of healing to help you back from the brink again."

Glorath glares at the humans and orc as they leave the inn.

Winding down...

Goubido doesn't see anything of immediate interest except the many bottles and barrels of alcohol...

You march the lot over to the sheriff's office, though you have to help out a Majkis and Sprog. Once you get there, the guards eye you but let you in. They've probably seen odder stuff.

The sleepy-eyed sheriff looks up.
"So.. what's all this about? Isn't that Majkis, the tavern owner? Who did this to him??"

The sheriff eyes the lot of you for an explanation.

"He did this to himself," Ashgyad replied. "He and his tavern was responsible for drugging some unfortunate patrons and carting them off."

"I don't believe we have met, sheriff. I am D'Bruuhl, priest of Heironeous and member of the nightwatch," D'Bruuhl steps forward and pulls himself up stiffly to his full height, trying to look as regal and priestly as possible. "What my friend here says is true. Majkis was in league with Arktul, Taris and the other one that we sent back with your deputies earlier. Majkis would drug the patrons at the Toad and then the others would roll the drunks and cart them off somewhere else."

Not waiting for the sheriff to comment, D'Bruuhl carries on in a rush, "When we found out this information from Arktul, we took it upon ourselves to investigate the allegations. Unprovoked, Majkis fired upon us from his hiding place in the brass Toad. Even after we identified ourselves as the nightwatch, he did not relent. We were forced to bring him under control, at which point he sicked his orc on us, who nearly killed Rakanishu there. Luckily for the felons, after they were both defeated, I was able to call on the healing grace of my divine lord and spare them from death. Now we bring them to you so that they may pay for their crimes."

D'Bruuhl steps back with a contended look on his face, satisfied with a job well done. Then he remembers. "Oh, one more thing. We also brought the Toad's till with us to give to you for safekeeping, so that the money wouldn't be stolen while the tavern was left unattended." He looks to Goubido.

Rakanishu smiles at the mention of his name.

[gob]"Well, we either kept the money as a bonus or lost it and looked good for it. A win/win situation in the end is it not?"[gob] Rakanishu says.

"Oh, one more thing. We also brought the Toad's till with us to give to you for safekeeping, so that the money wouldn't be stolen while the tavern was left unattended." He looks to Goubido.

"Right, right... there was just under one-hundred gold in the till..." Goubido shakes his pockets noisily as he produces the one-hundred gold and spills it onto the sheriff's desk.

 

[Mirth]

D'Bruuhl smiles at the sheriff and his guards.

"Thanks for that, Goubido. See, sheriff? How else are we going to change people's opinions of us if we don't prove that we can be trusted?" D'Bruuhl says, all the while still smiling.
