J. Alexander's Four Lands Part 2, redux

[Scotley]

Angelo Human Mage

More used to street brawls of late, Angelo is startled by the suddeness with which this fight ends. He really hadn't even started good, and it was over. He takes a position at the doorway to the suite with his staff held ready doing his best to look sturdy in the face of some many warriors.

Lucien Montrose

Lucien kneels beside the man he struck, looking to see if there is anything he can do to save his life. If not, he'll give the man his last rites before the Light. As he finishes, he mutters to himself, "Before the day is out, I must confess and do penance for this."

Turning to the men under arms in the corridor, he says, "Gentlemen, this incident should have been avoided. There was no need for blood to have been shed today. I know not what animosity rest between the two of you, but a man innocent of it has paid the cost. I hope both of you will take the lesson to be learned here to heart. Sirrah Franken, you said you were here in search of a man. Describe him and for what reasons before the Light you have to be searching for him. Speak truthfully, or by the Light, justice will find you to mete out an atonement for what has happened here today. "

Tetsu

Tetsu will stand ready with his quarterstaff beside Franken, eagerly awaiting the man's answer.

New Quarters

At Brother Luciens command Franken describes the man taken by your party into it's new quarters. "I was just told to take a squad and fetch him dead or alive"

The men at arms simple look at Brother LUcien as if had grown to heads and the young officer replies "Lieutiant you are way outside you league to so demand of superiors. Motioning to his men at arms now coming up the stairwell he says "Clean up the mess please and give the owner this to cover any inconvience he may have sufferd" and tosses the man a small pouch.

Anyone care to roll diplomancy or sense motive

Tetsu

OOC: I'll not bother to post Tetsu's Sense Motive check

Angelo Human Mage

OOC: Diplomacy & Sense Motive (1d20+8=14, 1d20+7=27)

OOC: I just realized that you asked for "or" rather than "and". If it needs to be one or the other I guess I'll stand with the first and sadly lower roll of 14.

 

[J. Alexander]

New Quarters

As the party seems to be at a loss, the young man simple smiles at Brother Lucien and says "yes sir, sorry to have botherd you sir" and turns to go back into his suit. Over his shoulder he calls out "I am suprised you showed so much common sense Fraken, perhaps next time you will be your old self and will fight" at which point he enters his room along with two others. Two men at arms who were orignianlly downstairs now post to either side of the doorway leading to his suit.

For Angelo
[sblock]The mocking sarcaism is so thick and discernalbe that Angelo has not problem picking it up[/sblock]

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

OOC: I'll be out of town until sometime Sunday (fairly early, I hope). Will check back then!

Angelo Human Mage

Seeing that the excitement is over for the moment, Angelo suggests they come inside and discuss it. Assuming everyone does he will close the door and bar it. "Well, we may have their man, but I don't think we won any friends on either side today." He grins, "not that I really have a clue what the sides are. Lucien, that was as fine a bit of blade work as I've ever seen, but I have nagging feeling that you offended the young man as well as this Franken character." He waves his staff in the direction of the sick man's room. "How ill is our guest? Can you help him or do we need to seek out a powerful priest?"

OOC: For the DM [sblock]Angelo request that his little friends keep an eye on the people leaving the building.[/sblock]

New Quarters

For Angelo
[sblock]with a bird's eye view of the area, Angelo sees that Fraken and company, some 5 men plus Fraken, leave the Inn headed towards the river port area. The taven next door has a bustle of activity as men-at-arms move in and out carrying foodstuffs and other items. Angelo does catch a view of bundles of short spears, bolts and arrows, being taken into the tavern next door as well as numerous barrels.[/sblock]
