"Good evening"

Khelon heads out to look for his companions, starting in the temple where he knows some of there were staying.

"Khala, stop. He seems just too eager to lose his finger. I'm sure we could find a reasonable compromise. You know, some people could feel a little biased towards a little puny thief that just unloaded tons of crap upon them, but I'm willing to forgive you. Everyone could tell you I'm just a good natured guy. So, you know, I'd just suffer greatly if I had to hurt you. You say you don't know where there sacks of money came from? Well, I'll tell you. They came from your pockets. Now, what really interests me is where they belong before they ended in your pockets, and if there are other of them. Please, be reasonable. I really hate the smell people do when the are dissoving in acid."

That said, Mak will open an acid flask and let a drop on the halfling shoes.

"Not my feet!" Kicking and twitching like a little runt, the halfing squirms around. He manages to loosen himself from any grip (I suppose, did a grapple check assuming brawn was holding him and also compared it to masterwork manacles of Regis, the halfling's escape artist check was 28.), and the halfling stands up out of his bindings, I think.

"Let me go, and I'll take you to the load, but the goblins might already be thieving it. Then I go away, and you turn in Rodam and Presstine."

Regis countermands that note, "Nope, doesn't work that way." and Regis strikes the halfling with his sap, binds him up with rope and manacles again. "Hold on tighter Brawn, I don't want that to happen again, it'll wake up in a minute." (9 points of subduel)

A few minutes pass, and the halfling wakes back up. Regis states, "Brawn, throw him over your shoulder and let him whine. He knows where they hid their loot, Halfling, your going to tell us the way."

The halfling negotiates, "I'm not going to tell you anythingss..."

Regis, "I'm afraid you are, no more playing around, you try one more thing and Mak will roast your little toes off. Then we'll jail you, and you'll spend your years rotting in a cell with no toes or shoes. Your fate will be sealed by the justicar of laws, your not going anywhere or doing anything."

The halfling, "Fine then."

Regis, "Hold on, that's not right, your going to try and lead us into some trap, right? Your going to try and get us killed so you can escape or test your luck. I'm not a rookie, I've been through this before. Mak, you seem to have good eyes I suppose, I do as well. I know he claims his kin are going to raid this loot, but I don't want to have any pitfalls, let's move slowly to avoid any traps. They already sprung one."

All the talking back and forth makes Brawn confused.

Too many words too fast.

He slings the halfling over his shoulder like Regis said.
"So are we going to get paid, or not, Regis?"
Brawn looks at him, concerned and a bit peeved.

He remembers how good the ha;lfling is at escaping, and when he wakes up again, Brawn says "Don't try to get away again, little guy.

I'd hate to have to eat you, but if my friends here tell me to, I AM getting a bit hungry...
All this bulk needs food... BADLY. "

"Allright, I'll keep my eyes open.Then which way are we going?" he asks the halfling, tickling him.

"I told you I'm the good one."

"I told you I'm the good one."

"Over there."

You follow, watching carefully.

"Right, left left, right left right left left right"

All seems well.

"Right left, left left, left"

"We're here. Looks like the goblins either didn't come down here, or they are faster than I knew. Go ahead, it's in that chest."

There's a large trunk in front of you, with a padlock over it, and it seems to have a blue shimmering field around it.

"This doesn't look right. Chests don't normally glow."

Khala casts detect magic and examines the blue glow.

There is a presence of magical auras, but you only detect a single one. The aura is coming from the chest, and has a fiant strength. It seems to be an enchantment.
