[LPF] A Soul Indiscretion

[Songdragon]

As the gnome continues to search she replies to Borric, "I was able to get in through a window in the basement... Yay me for being small... There is a cell of some kind down there, several bodies are within. One person, who I assume has been tortured and has not signed this contract thingy just yet, He or she, keeps saying no, over and over again... Seems in rough shape. The lock on the cell door is a good solid one, hence I am trying to find the key to open it."

Borric looks askance at Fury after hearing the gnome's tale, "Can you pick locks? Otherwise, I have a crowbar and a set of bolt cutters."

"Quit screwing around; you wanna drink, do it on your own time. We're working and got things to do. Syl, get over here and heal this guy before he bleeds out. We haven't found the contract and we need them to tell us where it is." He shakes his head at this lack of concern that another pack of Eels might come in at any moment as he turns to respond to Borric.

"I've wrangled a lock or two but it's complicated work. Can't guarantee anything but I'll give it a try. If Syl gets one of those guys conscious go ahead and question them, Borric. I'm not much worried about whether they have a rough go of it or not. They deserve whatever they get for what they've done."

He watches Zelena to see if she'll object but then says, "Someone downstairs need rescuing, eh? Well, you better lead the way. We don't want to waste time, especially if they've been tortured." He'll follow the gnomish woman down into the basement not worried about traps since Zelena's already been through here once. In the basement he'll start work on the lock (if nothing happens down there, that is).

OOC: Alright: clarification time. Do we want the juggler brought back or not?

 

[Aldern Foxglove]

Heading upstairs no traps are found, but a quick search through a chest at the bottom of one of the filthy beds reveals, along with a great deal of foul smelling clothing, a small lacquered box containing both key and contract.

The contract bears only two names Bertrand Holrik and Lyle Prask.

 

[Songdragon]

"Looks like this bunch is not so good at getting folks to sign..." she takes up the key and hurries off... "This way..."

Making her way back through the kitchen and down the stairs. Through a small room and through another door and she is in the basement with the cell... "Might want a light for those who have trouble with the dark."

Zelena makes her way to the lock and slides the key in and opens it... (Assuming it opens) She removes the lock... She looks back at the others and in a calm voice... "Careful now, this one might be a be rattled, considering what they went through."

She turns towards the man/woman... "We are here to help you get out of here."

Borric Hawkins, Male Human Fighter

Seeing that the Captain has found a key and a contract in the search upstairs, Borric puts an end to the juggler's and mountain man's miseries with a swift cut from his guisarme, "It looks we have what we need, no sense prolonging their existence."

Then he will follow Zelena and Fury downstairs to see what is going on, looking for some source of illumination that the Eels use to see in the basement.

While clanking down the stairs he asks Falkner, "Cap'n, how proficient are you at using polearms?"

Falkner looks to Borric

"I can use them as well as anything else. Got something in mind?"

Falkner follows Fury and Zelena down the stairs as well. As he descends, he speaks up louder directed toward Zelena as he wipes off and stows his blade.

"If they are too rattled, I suggest we coax them out of there and bring them to the temple. Sometimes a little prayer and healing magic is all they need."

 

[perrinmiller]

Borric talks to Falkner and the Duke if he is listening, "Well, seeing as how we are the melee combat specialists, we might need to coordinate tactics a bit better. After a few skirmishes I am starting to realize I should be in the teeth of things."

"As much as I like using this guisarme, it might be better in your hands if we coordinate tactics in combat. I can be in front with my shield and flail, while you are right behind me. You can even use the hook to trip them up without being an expert. Unless they have a long polearm too, they cannot take a free swing at you."

"Then you can also protect my flanks with the Duke when he grows big."

OOC: Who's going to lay claim on that +1 Ring of Prot. If Falkner wants to use Borric's guisarme, then I think I will start throwing Borric straight into the bad guys and try to draw most of the attacks. Higher AC is better in that case.

OOC: I am fine with one of the melee guys getting the ring. Hopefully I will stay out of position that I will get hit.

Syl quietly follows the group, still a bit addled from the slicing he took.
