J. Alexander's Four Lands Part 2, redux

[Scotley]

Angelo Human Mage

Angelo settles back into a seat. "We seem to have come full circle gentlemen. At least the food and drink here are top notch and free." Angelo takes a moment to look around carefully for changes since his last visit, but is distracted by the thought of the coming refreshments.

Vist to the Office

As if on cue, the door opens and a lay brother pushes a cart into the room ladden with sitkey buns, fresh pasries, fresh juice,apple/orange/grapefruit/tomatoe/pomegranate along with a pot of coffee and what smell does be a hot spiced tea. Glimpsing out the door from wince the trolley came, two gurards can be seen standing outside the doorway.

Never one to pass up a free meal, Angelo helps himself to pastries and hot spiced tea. "Well, there are worse ways to spend the morning." Raising his tea cup to his companions and smiling wryly he adds, "And worse companions to spend it with."

Tetsu

Tetsu will also take a glass of juice, a cup of coffee, and a bun. "Indeed, I can feel the pace of my previously sedate life picking up even as we sit and wait."

The Prelate

After about a 15 minute wait, the inner office door opens and the young man steps out into the antechamber..."His Grace will see you now gentlemen" He then steps to the side and waits for the party to enter the office....once they have entered he quietly closes the door behind them.

Entering the office the party sees the Archbishop sitting behind his desk looking a a piece of paper.... to his left in the sitting area is a young man perhaps 25 or so dressed in a dark black trousers, black linen shirt and a rich black wool and silk cloak rests on the couch next to him. Two others are in the room but they are standing to either side of the entry doors leading into other areas.

Looking up from his reading the Archbishops asks "You have information relating to Marcus? Pray tell how you came by it and the name of the individual in question?"

Angelo Human Mage

Sensing that it is time to put his cards on the table Angelo speaks up. "Marcus was engaged in a fight on the street and literally stumbled into our breakfast. His fearsome beast dispatched his foes, but Marus fell at our feet brought low by his wounds and a fever. Fortunately, brother Lucien has some skill at healing and he is being treated. We expect he will recover. In removing clothes we stumbled across papers that we believe related to his mission. Given that someone was trying to kill him and rumors of trouble with the noblity, we thought they might be of some import and brought copies to you straight away." Angelo holds out a folio containing the copies he made this morning. "These are the only copies, while Marcus and his companion have the originals."

The Prelate

Listening to the Angelo's story....the archbishop speak up at the pause in his story..."Pray tell, describe his companion to me?"

Angelo Human Mage

Angelo quickly describes the powerful wolf. "He's quite intellegent and very protective."

For the DM [sblock]Reaching out mentally to the wolf he asks, "would you like me to add anything?"[/sblock]

 

[J. Alexander]

Meeting with the prelate

The Archbishop listens to Angelo's description attentively..after Angelo finishes his description he says "So is it wolf or just a rather large dog?" The way he says it gives Angelo the impression that he is laying some sort of trap.

For Angelo
[sblock]In respone to Angelo's mental query a name comes back in the form of a mental picture of a black raven[/sblock]

Angelo

Angelo shows his palms and shurgs, "Wolf, dog, I am not zoologist, it could be a black raven for all I know. I was raised a city boy. I do know it was very fierce for a pet and yet too well mannered indoors to be a thing wholely of the wild. It is no ordinary beast, I feel a chill like winter when I look into its eyes."
