[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 6822758, member: 2012"] The second guard gives Vak'tiel a reassuring smile. "Try not to judge us to harshly. We have a duty to perform." Then he says quietly to the tiefling, "Personally, I agree with you that there can be too much politicking in the city, but doesn't tell Kristijan there I said so. He's a bit of stickler." The guard holds out his hand to shake Vak'tiel's, "I'm Tivadar Veres. I'm glad to make your acquaintance." "Tivadar, don't dawdle," the other guard orders. Sarten notes an audible sigh as Tivadar moves to catch up with his fellow guard after shaking Vak'tiel's hand. He gives Sarten a nod, like human's tend to do when being quietly polite. Kisep notes that the guard Kristijan seems to be of the higher rank of the two. Convincing him to let Kisep and the others go back to the Market Bridge and 'question the magical face' is easier than the other guard made it sound. Kristijan turns out to be quite reasonable or, maybe, just easy to sway. "Marcus did mention something about the bridge and the face. He said you were going to do that later. Of course, with what's happened, it might be prudent to find out more." "It looks like you all will be taking a bit of a detour," Tivadar replies with a smile. The two guards lead them to the bridge, which has been overrun with more guards. Marcus has returned to watch over the face, as he had been doing before the crisis at the manor. He waves for the guards at the end of the bridge to let you all pass. "There you are," Marcus says. "You go him, I see. Wait, is that..." "Yes, Master Galoda's man," Kristijan replies. "It seems he might have been befuddled by magic. At least, that's what this elf thinks," he nods his head towards Shrough. "Well, take him to the Keep and put him in a cell, just to be safe. If someone has a hold of his mind, they might take control of it again." "Yes sir," Kristijan salutes formally. "The Warder isn't around, Kris, you don't have to be such a kisser." Before Kristijan can object, Tividar speaks, "These, uh, I don't know what to call you. Does your company have a name?" He asks Vak'tiel. "The magical face called them the Eight, Marcus says with a wide grin. "Although there seems to be only seven of them, so far." "These Eight, uh, Seven have decided to stay here and question the bridge, uh, the face on the bridge before coming to the Keep. Do you think The Warder would object?" "I doubt it, Marcus says. "That's what he suggested before all this started. It's a good idea." He looks to the group, "It would be best to ask your question while its still night. Once morning comes, it will be very difficult to control access to the bridge. Commerce tends to come first in the city. Diverting the flow of traffic across the Canal Bridge would be... troubling." "And dangerous," Tividar adds. "Kris, Tiv, take the prisoner to the Keep. I'll stay here with them until they are done." Marcus waits until they leave before addressing the group. "Once you're done, I will have to take you to the Keep. I'm sure you'll want to talk to Master Goloda, and I'm sure The Warder will want to hear what the bridge told you. The captain might be there too." Marcus takes a step back to watch as the group interacts with the magical face. [B][U]OOC[/U]:[/B] Remember, each PC can only ask the magical face on the bridge (Vectēvs) two questions. One has to be about the situation "The Gezgin" has tasked the PCs to handle while the other can be more general, but there is no guarantee that Vectēvs will be able to answer obscure questions. Here's the post with Vectēvs' message to the PCs: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?469606-Kulan-Bard-s-Gate-PbP-Campaign-%28IC%29/page12&p=6754138&viewfull=1#post6754138[/url] You guys might want to usee the OOC thread to brainstorm some ideas for your questions.
