[IC] The Odd Job

[jonathonhawke]

Galdar takes the crates down to the cellar the food is being prepared.

Asha thanks Ben for the food. She sits in a corner and eats quickly. When she finishes she cleans up her plates and smiles at Ben.

"Thank you for the food. Where is your master? I thought he would be here."

Ana helps Galdar with the crates. When she comes back upstairs, she grabs a bite to eat. Looking around, she asks Ben, "Where's Balin? I thought he was going to work on the quicksilver potions."

It was a bit odd his master not being present, but then again he probably wasn't expecting Ben to return to the workshop since the group seemed set on heading out to fight the werebeast already. "I'm not really sure what my master does when I'm not around... as his apprentice we are sort of stuck together constantly. Maybe he is taking a break to do something he can't do while I'm around." Ben shrugged it off and went back to eating his breakfast.

Hrgach dug into his breakfast, ignoring the chattering of the others as he ate. He didn’t seem particularly interested in the activities of the alchemist.

“Maybe he’s with yer mom,” Hrgach sneered at Ben, pushing his plate away and leaning back with his coffee.

"If he is supposed to be turning that silver into quicksilver why isn't he here doing that?" Ana asked. "Is there somewhere else he might work on it?"

 

[Azurewraith]

Balin returns. "We are ready, we should catch the beast while we have the light."

The party head off to the forest Hrgach had suggested it would be hiding as they arrive the forest is odd very odd.

The trees all though they have a full set of healthy green leaves there trunked and branches are black and twisted. The trees are fairly spaced out providing good visibility up to 60ft. However the ferns and undergrowth seem to have grown tall up to waist height covering the floor Balin is completely lost beneath. The sun is currently begging its decent there is about 6hours of sunlight left.

OOC: Anything below the undergrowth is concealed and vice versa for those undergrowth.

As they trekked into the forest, Ana began to realize there did not seem to be a plan. "So, I'm keep my eyes open looking for... Well I'm not sure what we are looking for? Doesn't this beast only come out at night? Does that mean we're looking for a warren or a den. We could walk right past a warren buried in this underbrush and not even notice it. What are we looking out for?"

 

[Azurewraith]

Balin looks at the women... or at least you think he does given the rustling his voice comes muffled from below."A cave most likely, the creature is in control of it's affliction. I think expect anything. We should look for tracks, scat anything really." You're pretty sure Balin was trying to sound reassuring or convincing but h just seemed to add more doubt to this endeavour.

 

[Azurewraith]

Ana has a look around surveying her surroundings and having a quick poke around the undergrowth. Doesn't reveal anything untoward. Just a very odd forest.
