[IC] The Protectors of Greensfen (Part II)

Rellek would like to check over the warforged and then take the suggestion to check out the area.

Friends I think Kraegyn is right and that we must first take the opportunity to survey our surroundings. I like not the thought of being unprepared, should we be attacked and know not our surroundings.

Sorry about the change of font colour, since changing my computer the font colours seem slightly different I'll settle on this one for clarity.

"You sure about that, friend," the bartender asks, raising an eyebrow. "From the looks of it, you'll need all your wits about you."

Karis, her naturally suspicious attitude aggravated by recent events, whips her head around. "And why is that? I thought you said this place you were taking us was safe. Do you know something else you ought to be telling us?"
 

The bartender thanks you for the offering of gold ... "This should cover the damage.." he half-mutters to himself...

Karis said:
"And why is that? I thought you said this place you were taking us was safe. Do you know something else you ought to be telling us?"

"No, my good elf," says the bartender, smirking slightly, "I just thought that since a band of warriors came into a crowded bar seeking your death you might, I don't know, consider the possibility that you are in danger."
 

Kraegyn gave a rumbling hiss, barely recognizable as laughter, at the barkeep's comment. "We find it easier when the enemy comes to us. But now we've dealt with them, I guess we'll have to go find some more." He finished off his ale and stood up, reclaiming his massive sword. "Let us go see what the town can tell us. We'll be back to take up your offer." Then he turned to the others...

"So, friend Karis, who were those fellows that were talking with you before the fight? They seem to have left- did they have any useful information?"
 

Karis frowns, but sets aside her suspicions for another time. "There was a human youth, and two others whose faces I did not see clearly. The youth showed me a tattoo much like those on the orcs we disposed of recently, and asked me if I was a member of something called The Force. I tried to find out more, but something I said must have scared them off. And then these oversized pocketwatches came through the door. They must have left in the confusion. Perhaps if we look around town we might find more of these Force fools. I thought I noticed some people behaving strangely when we arrived. There could be danger, though, if there are many..."
 

Kraegyn nodded as he listened to Karis. "That tattoo he showed you... do these two dead guys have one like it? I'd hate to think that there were two different groups of enemies after us, but you never know..."
 

A brief examination reveals that the bodies of the dead men do not have any tatoos. Looking around the bar, the party can see no trace of the group that Karis was talking to before the fight broke out.
 

"I think we've learned all we can here. At least, I can see no obvious leads that needs must be looked after mimediately. Lets take the man up on his offer for a place to sleep. A new dawn and fresh minds will perhaps bring similar insights and ideas into our predicament"
