Island Empire Part 1, to Mermaid's Rest

Michael Storm (warlock)

"Indeed Madame, why dont we begin." "Before, we get into the vile misdeeds of yon sea dog and it's costs to me as well as the uprovoked attack upon me by the gentleman in the streets and it's cost to you. Lets us first refresh ourselves." Very carefully, Michael will reach into his purse and pull out 5 gold pieces, "Grond, please see to some nice refresments for Madame and myself, while we begin our discussion." As if on second thought, Michael will reach into his purse and remove serveral more gold and say "Might as well bring the gentlmen something to Grond".

"Now Madame, just how did this old sea dog, pointing to Radoon, do you wrong?"

Bountiful Gobblet Tavern

Grond goes to busy himself behind the unoccupied bar. She glances up and laughs at Radoon, "that old fart isn't the problem though he did attack my husband with his throwing daggers. The young jackanapes with the goggling eyes and impertinent whistle is one with whom this affair began. My husband was setting about putting it right when the lad ran off to find his friends and come looking for trouble. I saw you all stalking up the street looking for my husband like the pack of sharks you sea dogs always are. That lad was up front telling you all about it. My husband and his friends came out to defend my honor." She spits in a most unladylike fashion that lends irony to her next statement. "I don't know what's to become of this town now that sea trade is coming back into vogue. It is getting so a lady can't walk down the street without some young thug of a sailor accosting her."

Grond arrives at the table with a dusty bottle of what must pass for the "good stuff" in this dive and produces three glasses freshly scrubed with a moderately clean dishtowel found behind the bar.

Michael will motion for the glassess to be filled and say "Well i am beginning to understand, Old sea dog or young sea puppy, they are all trouble unless properly leashed and housebroken. I am assuming you are referring to young master swift then madame" "An before we go further, we were actually headed to the docks and not your establishemnt." "So what did young master swift do to you and yours."

Rook - Scout/Mage Blade

Rook will scout the room for entrances/exits, noting the position of anyone else in the room. He'll then find a place within the tavern where he can see the room, including the door and any other entrances. He'll occupy that space and keep watch.

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

Radoon is getting upset with Michael becasue he keeps insulting him stating he is the cause of this and the comment that all Sea Dogs are a problem. At that comment, he will leave, keeping an eye on the lady.

Rook looks about the small dim place. 3 passed out drunks are the only inhabitants of the place other than party members and the 'lady'. There is a window looking out on the street and behind the bar, a short hallway leading to a barred door you suspect opens into an alley. Off the hall is a stairway leading up and down and one closed door.

Michael Storm (warlock)

"Grond will you be so kind as to go fetch young master swift for us so we can here his side of the story".

 

[Scotley]

Bountiful Gobblet Tavern

Grond fills the glasses. Radoon had started to join you but without a word gets up and backs away then leaves the tavern obviously unhappy. The Sorceress keeps the wand pointed at Radoon, but lets him leave and laughs, "I think you've offended your salty friend. He is proud like all men. You speak as though you are not associated with these others, but to my eye you are a man of the sea as well. Your friends actions bare this out. He is offended because you attempt to change your colors. You'll not so easily fool me."

Grond leaves to fetch the lad, while Rook takes a tactical spot at the bar where he can see the stairs as well as both doors.

MIchael will raise an eyebrow and say "Suffice to say, I too was a sailor in my youth, but learend at an early age the bitterness the sea has to offer" " Now i find myself more accustomed to the land" "As for the offense, I barely know the man, having just meet him recently thru a business transaction we have been commissed to take" But enough of that, Madame, shall we settle the matter of wereguild as i must sail with the morning tides and have much to do bewteen now and this and your friends have casued the unwelcome delay"


For the DM only[sblock]Michael will instruct Grond, once he has brought young master swift to us, to ask Radoon to join us in the settling of the wereguild as he is unfamilar with the particualr customs of CAmbre and needs an advocate for Young Master Swift so as he does not get screwed and it does not cost to much money[/sblock]

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

If the lady allows Radoon to leave, he will make his way to the ship and begin preparations.
