Jungle Deeps and Ocean Depths

Morrin heard mention of Kelemvor, and looked to Halark, "Yes, it seems there is not even a small shrine for the Lord of the Dead here..." he glanced to the symbol of Kelemvor on his shoulder plate out of habit, "It feels strange being in such a foreign land..."

"Im an Evoker and servant of Kelmvor. I also do polotics. I suppose I can just find a job with someone who needs a wizard. Someone always needs some Mystra forsaken spell cast." Flexing his hands, he sits back down at the seat next to the two Chultans. "You two wouldnt happen to know anyone who needed a Wizard would you? I am in need of work."
OOC- How do we work skill rolls? Just in case you want a diplomacy roll.
 

Undinar Deptholas, water genasi Living Spell

Undinar settles into the seats of the tavern and as the woman comes over he asks, "On my way here I spotted many exotic fruits in the market and indeed I shall try some of these fine fruit on the table. But I was wondering if you would happen to serve juice?"

When Halark approaches, Undinar remembers him from the ship. He watches as the man is interviewed by Winter. He realizes that other than his mission to find the spring, he is uncertain what his employer is looking for. Being hired as a body guard seemed like a good idea as he was heading in the same direction. Now that they were here in this city, what did the man intend. For the moment Undinar remains silent, content to see what the discussion between these two yeilds.
 

*Whisper, after a bit of walking around the warf, you find the Rainbow Bird, it's unusual shape and riot of colors making it stand out. As you enter, a colorful bird perched on a rafter just inside the door calls out to you.*

"Welcome, welcome! You will be happy here. Here is the finest place in Mezro!"

*From behind the bar a middle-aged human Chultan woman comes out to you. She's dressed in red and orange cotten, with red leather sandels on her feet. She tosses a nut to the bird, though she does a double-take at you before smiling in welcome.*

"Welcome sir, how may I be of service?"

*Whisper, you notice Halark talking to two Chultan men on the east side of the room. He's sitting with Dorcha, as usual, who surveys the room warily between bites of stew and fruit.*

*Halark, the Chultan traders seem slightly shocked at your rather abrupt request, but you smooth it over with skill gained from years of dealing with church politics. After a moment of smoothing their ruffled feathers and politely requesting if they've heard of any need for a mage. You chat with them for a few minutes, learning that the man in yellow is Quebo, an elder silk merchant, long-established in Chult. The man in blue is Zarche, who seems to be a chief's son as well as a merchant.*

"As for work Master Halark, it could be that I may be of need of the services of a mage. I have had some difficulties on the high seas, with ships encountering some trouble that either delays them, or on the rare occasion, disappearing entire. A certain amount of loss and delay is expected in my business, but this is rather unusual. If that has some interest to you, then perhaps we could talk further," Quebo finally says. Zarche only watches you closely, examining your reactions. Dorcha glances over at you and makes a small movement with his hand. It's a familiar sign, one that's essentially a gestural representation of Kelemvor's symbol. He's trying to remind you of your mission.

*The younger serving girl nods at your request.*

"We have many types sir," she says, her voice lightly accented. "We have a juice of any fruit on the table."
 

Winter simply arches a brow at Halark, and crosses his arms upon his chest, leaning back in his chair. Snooty Kelemvite, if only he knew the likes of with whom- He lets his eyes simply glaze over the scenery before him, contemplating his next move in this sweltering armpit of Faerun. Dragging his fingers over the kiira attached to his head, he sighs, and turns to Undinar.

"What do you think about him, this Halark? Your opinion is perhaps more pure than mine -- untainted by any disdain for the church, and the like."

Winter regards the Prince -- his Prince, noble enough, with the smell of the sea about him. This must be a slice of home, to him.

"And didn't you have a bit of business of your own, here, in Chult?"

"Thank you Master Quebo. I may get back to you on these strange going ons." Bowing to the merchants, Halark goes over to Dorcha.
"Calm down Dorcha. I had to do that for two reasons. One, I cant very well find an artifact if I have no clue what it is, and I need that scroll to find out. Two, if this Winter thinks that I have numerous options in front of me, it may prompt him to let me know if I can be of service to him. It seems the other Kelmvorite is his compainon, and hopefully he will know something about the artifact I don't.

Edit - Wow, that paragraph made no sense. Fixed the spelling and such.

Seeing Halark talking with the two individuals, Whisper points to their table and smiles warmly at the woman. Without further thought, he makes his own way over and raps twice on the table with his knuckles to announce his presence.
 

Morring simply heard the word "artifact" in connection with his Patron. His eyes opened wide and he turned quickly to Halark, speaking much quicker than he usually did, "Artifact? What?" he took a step forward, noticing the hand motion from before, "Do I speak with others who follow the words of the Lord of the Dead?"

Seeing his freind, Halark gets up and pats him on the shoulder."Whisper! Good to see you back. How has Chult been treating you?"

Turning around to adress his fellow Kelmvorite, Halark turns his hands around and holds them up, showing the Golden Scales of Justice tattoed on the backs. "Yes, I am. Halark Greywave, Evoker. Normaly Im back home in Waterdeep. I dabble in polotics you see. However, the High Preist sent me to discover some artifact here. Other than that its an artifact, and its in Chult somewhere, I have no idea what it is. This is Dorcha, my bodygaurd, traveling compainon, and freind.

Morrin smiled and nodded to the symbol on the shoulder plate of his armor. His eyes seemed to almost a glow a more golden color a moment before he spoke again, "I am Morrin Estilan, an Acolyte and Warrior for the Lord," he ran a hand through his golden hair to move it out of the way of his eyes, "I was also sent for an artifact...the Priest at my Temple said I would encounter at least one other who was looking for it. Do you know if there are more of us? I also know nothing about it except that it is...here somewhere."
