Mojo comments “Normally I feel a lot more refreshed after a night in jail.” Narg exclaims “I want this little puissant out of my hair today, even if I have to kill him myself.” Mojo mutters “Narg, that’s no way to talk about the Lordholder.” Narg yells back “Not him. I meant the gnome! What about those two, should we kill them?” Narg asks, gesturing to Norbert and Porter. Mojo quips “That would be different. Spending a night in jail and then killing two guys, instead of the other way around.” Kindor convinces them to leave the two alone, and the party head back to the auction house.</p><p></p><p>Arriving back, they are informed of the break-in. “So he came here instead of Kindor’s” Serita states. “And he never got into Kulp’s Castle?” Narg asks. “We don’t think so. We didn’t want to open the door to check, in case they were still around,” Vincenzo comments. Narg says “I’m checking on my wife,” and heads upstairs, with Kharole right behind him. They talk to Vallessa in the conference room, then have Vallessa talk again to Florine. They have Florine write a note to Wister to arrange a morning meeting with the Silver Moon Adventurers at the Merchant’s Secret Inn. </p><p></p><p>An Army Lieutenant alerts the party that Ki-Geloryn is outside and wants to see them. Serita heads outside to talk to him. He says that he wants to talk to Narg, and asks to come inside. Serita says “Why? Tell me what is going on.” He explains that the Black Dragon Emperor from Gilladin has arrived in the city, riding on a Black Dragon, and wishes to obtain the Ring of Fortune. “So, why can’t you handle that yourself?” she asks. He gets a bit flustered, and asks again to come inside. “Wait here” she states.</p><p></p><p>Serita goes back inside, and says “Ki is outside, and very anxious to get inside, and isn’t acting like himself.” She then makes the observation “I didn’t see his carriage outside either.” Furynick comments “Well, he’s something like 75 million years old, so he probably didn’t hobble over here on his own.” She heads back outside to confront the man.</p><p></p><p>Serita asks Ki “I don’t see your carriage. How did you get here?” He replies “I had breakfast down the street at the Merchants Manor. It was such a nice summer morning that I decided to walk from there. What’s the big deal.” She replies “The Ki I know doesn’t walk anywhere. I’m only going to tell you this once. If you try to break into this place again it won’t matter who you used to work for, I’ll blow you to hell! Is that clear?” Flustered, the man turns and walks away quickly. </p><p></p><p>Narg and Kharole exit the room, and asks the party about how to get the note to Wister. Serita announces “I just threatened him, and he left.” A few people are sent outside to look for him, but he is long gone. Narg and Kharole come up with an idea. They place the note inside of one of the “decoy” items, a non-magical jeweled box, and send Furynick and two guards to take it to Kindor’s Castle, assuming that the gnome will try to steal it. </p><p></p><p>About half-an-hour later the Army Lieutenant announces that Ki-Geloryth is back, and is with an old oriental man.

They found the alliance beneficial, and retained it, especially after their army branched out into mining operations. These are also rather atypical ogres, as they have been living in an affluent civilized society for many generations now.
