New Quarters

For Angelo
[sblock]Reviewing the map, Angelo determines to to be some sort location survey. The Targus river is identifed as well as the city of Canton. There are two x to the west of the city along the river, three to the east. Two on the northern side of the river and along its eastern bank.
South of Canton there is a series of 5 x's leading towards southern Gwynedde. NOtable landmarks are Castle Grant, Castle Comor and Castle Backen. All of these are close an x.[/sblock]
 

Lucien Montrose

OOC: Sorry to make everyone wait, but I'm housesitting for my folks and they don't have a decent internet connection. I had to wait until I was at work and had some free time. Also, as I said before, this diplomacy/information gathering stuff really isn't Lucien's baliwick. Where's the bards and thieves to take care of this sort of stuff?! :cool: :p

Anyway, for talking to the barboy. Gather Information (1d20=20) Even a blind hog finds that occassional acorn. /OOC

Lucien listens carefully to what the lad can tell him of the current situation. Examining the documents Angelo has found, his face grows grim. "I think we will be having another appointment with the good Cardinal sooner than either he or we could have expected. I believe someone did not want this report to reach the Cardinal's ears. If the two of you are in agreement, I think we should endeavor to deliver this message for our injured friend. The Cardinal will want a full accounting of what has happened here today."

In repsone to Lucines question the young man says "Well they say the king has had it with the northen nobles and is summoning men to finally put them down and burn them out. They aslo say the king is going to start here in the city and move out....anyone not loyal will be arrested."
 

Angelo Human Mage

"I agree, we need to get this information to the Cardinal. I guess my question is should we deliver it or try and get Marcus ready to do it with our assistance." He makes a sweeping gesture. "The military preparations we are seem may well be a response to the King. We could be getting ourselves in the middle of a civil war. I for one don't wish to visit the King's dungeons. What ever we do, we must be careful."
 


Angelo Human Mage

"Another racial stereotype brought low," quips Angelo, "All this time I thought Dwarves loved to be underground no matter what." Neatly placing the papers back in the wallet, he continues. "I doubt if we can get back in to see the Cardinal before the morrow. I suggest we take turns watching over our guest and try to gather some more information. I can usually charm a little information from tavern goers after a song and a drink or two." Thinking for a moment he adds, "We can assess the condition of Marcus in the morning and make our decision about taking him to the Cardinal or going on our own in the morning as well. Mayhap I can round up some simply disguises for the morrow as well. It could be that our new enemies will be awaiting us on the streets."
 

Tetsu

"I'll not get much information for the asking, I'm afraid. However, I'll find a table in the common room as you play and after, and see what I can see. What I am should serve to hide the fact that I have eyes to see and ears to hear!"
 

"I suggest we go out just after sunset when it is getting dark. That will be when they are least likely to spot us." Looking to Lucien he asks, "Can we find out from your friend where all the exits from this place are."
