Kiss of Darkness: Part 1--A Hint of Shadow

[Bront]

"Elayna won't mind Rhaka, and I'd rather you save your spells in case we stumble on our friend again." Val says.

"And sir, I will remind you again that it was in fact us who saved you, and you are in my room. While some insight into the killer is greatly appreciated, your editorial comments and disrespect of my friend Rhaka here is certaintly not. And while I choose to tolerate it in regards to the ordeal you just went through, I think that perhaps my patience is wearing thin. So please, do not test it any more good sir."

Val walks over to Rhaka, "How's the little guy doing?" She says, looking at the poor broken badger.

“Yes, well I wasn’t suggesting we rush out tonight as we are, that would be foolish. I think tomorrow is early enough to begin tying up any loose ends and getting a more complete picture of what the conjurer and his allies were actually doing here, if the priest can tend to the worst of our injuries. After all, the conjurer may decide to come back and hunt for those who thwarted him,” Baeleth replies calmly as he delicately probes the spot he was hit by the acid orb.

Rhaka replies to Valerie, "He's not doing very well. But I will care for him once I get a bit of rest. He's not in imminent danger, though."

*Dhistan looks to Val.*

"You seem to be a relatively intelligent and refined lady, so I'm sure you weren't thinking of actually sending the priest away though, right?" he sighs, "Anyway, I agree with Baeleth. It won't be safe to go back to that warehouse, and we seem to have gathered all the clues from there anyway, so we should analyse the rest of what we have to see what we can make of it. Perhaps we can find out more about this man. Speaking of which, check out this seal on the Abyssal letter--anyone recognise it?" Dhistan shows a symbol at the bottom of the page. It is larger than the rest, but not immediately obvious as a seal to those who can't read the Abyssal alphabet. Nonetheless, those trained in specialised knowledge might be able to recognise it now, given that they know it is a seal.*

(OOC: Anyone want to try a Knowledge check?--this is where that Bard in the other group that disbanded might have actually come in handy )

 

[unleashed]

OOC: Yeah, right after Baeleth actually gains his level and has some Knowledge skills...unless it's a DC 10 check.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Nope, not DC 10. Also is he taking ranks in a skill that he didn't have at least 1 rank in and no other party member has ranks in? If so, he has to train that skill.)

 

[unleashed]

OOC: Well, he did train with his grandfather pre-game for his Wizard level, so I thought he would have a basic understanding in the new skills he's picking up since that would have been part of the same training.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: What are the skills? Maybe Dhistan has them)

 

[Bront]

Val will see if she can recognize it.

OOC: One of these should work....

"No, of course not, but it was nice of Rhaka to offer her services so," Val says.
