Lost Homeland

Alth ponders abit, then says "I see where you are going with this."

Asking Kiarra, "I know how we can help two people at once. But, we would need the following: 2 way magical Communication to a person in the living world and a communication for me to contact you and Freylin. That way, once I get the information I need, I can notify the first guy as well as getting info from him. Then, if he will allow a time frame for us to help this gentlemen here *points to the mysterious men*. While I am doing that, you guys can be getting the information and layout of the land. "

To Mysterious men, "Can you modify those magical transporting items to return to the spot they left at (as well as carry on another person)? This way, they can come back and get me once I send them a communication. Or have a way to track them If I need to find them."

Then to Freylin, "I hope this plan will work out. If not, the best I can do is just wait until you have come back. Even if there is news is grave (no pun intended) about our missing dead person, I will have to make a trip back to our contact in the living unless we can set up a communication."

The robed figure shakes his head. "I am afraid that communication with the land of the living is impossible because of the time differences between the two worlds."
 


"I do not know the exact difference, but I believe the time here moves slower, meaning, for example, that if an hour passes by here, it's been a day in Lecrutia, the world of the living. I have been too long from the world of the living, however, to recall what the difference is."
 

The robed figure glances between you and says, still in Draconic, "I can see you are very busy with your business." He floats upwards into the air and stands about neck level for the humans, meaning above your heads. "Perhaps I made a mistake in choosing you." Ignoring any final words you may have, the robed figure flies farther into the air and move horizontally, quickly disappearing from your sight.

The thief frowns and speaks, of which Kiarra translates. "The thief is surprised at our actions. Most people tend to take jobs offered by the Pedan Sedestadel. He works for them, simply bait to draw in the more adventurous of people." The man in brown takes a step backwards and the thief stands. He bows, says something you believe probably means "Good-bye" and begins to walk away.

"What now?" Kiarra asks with a disappointed expression upon her face. "Do you want to continue the tour?"
 

"Sorry that you didn't get accepted to the mission Kiarra, with the way you handled yourself in that battle, I am sure you will make an excellent adventurer. "

Then, going to Skitter and patting it's head, "It appears there was a cultural clash in the way this whole event turned out to be. Where I am from, if there are problems that need outside help, or real professionals...then there would be a list or a guild. Also, there are word of mouth references, but those are with the person in their house or business. Usually shadowy namelss people (people whom don't give their names/positions/rank) who request for adventurers in the streets and allys, tend to end very badly to the adventurers. Lots of times it ends with shortchange of gold, or death."

"In fact, we learned the hard way once." Alth says as he pats the scarred scales on Skitters neck. Alth continues "So, you can see why that meeting didn't go to well with me. Also, due to the fact that we have a very important mission at the moment, we must not let our people down. Especially since now we know that there is a big time difference here and the living world."

Alth makes sure everything he has is there and firmly packed. Then, goes to Kiarra and says, "I am ready for the rest of the tour."
