[LPF] Daggers at Midnight

[perrinmiller]

The half-orc thug has no idea what his interrogator is talking about, "Where b-b-be Krell? He n-n-not here?"

"He n-n-no have partner dat I knowed abutt."

"Krell payed us ta watch out for da gnome. He say Greg'r was Mad'rus'z pa'tna. Dun-n-no why."

 

[Shayuri]

Maia comes up to the others interrogating their erstwhile attacker and produces the wand that she'd been provided with. Forehead creasing slightly with concentration as she used this until-now unfamiliar form of healing, Maia began touching the polished length of white wood to the wounded in the party...

(Using wand of CLW!)

1 charge for Heinrich
3 for Ausk
6 for Pari
10 total. 40 charges remaining.

Garnet strides back to the group, huffing from the exertions for the chase, but trying not to show it. She glances down, and notices she is still bleeding from her arm where the half-orc thug stabbed her. "Mistress Maia, when you have a moment," she says.

The Dwarf looks over at Pari and Heinrich. "I am glad you are alright," she offers. "I think you are right, that we need to go on to the Blue Ox and get to the bottom of this Madarius character. Otherwise, we don't know if Krell will be back, or some other foolish enemies of Madarius."

[Shayuri]

Maia nods at Garnet and gives the dwarf some of the wand's energy as well. Then she notices the tiger's wound and taps the great cat as well. Finally she tucks the instrument away...significantly depleted, but leaving the party's health in much better condition; a more than fair trade.

"If going to a blue ox will fix this," she says, expression making it clear she has only a vague idea of what's going on or why, "then I will go to the ox. I do not want strangers to keep attacking us on the streets."

 

[Scott DeWar]

"Maia, You understand that there may be a fight there, that you may have to hurt another person, ja?"

 

[Shayuri]

"That's a peculiar thing to say," Maia replied, a little puzzled. "I've been fighting with you all this time, after all. I understand fighting, and what it means."

 

[Scott DeWar]

"Just making sure Frauline."

 

[sunshadow21]

"Get on out of here, and try to pick better employers next time." Ausk waves the thugs off with a dismissive glare. Once they are gone, he responds to his companions, as he cleans the greatsword and puts it where he usually keeps his flail. "Aye, let's go and get this business finished. Who wants to bet that the flying annoyance is somehow behind all of this?"

 

[mfloyd3]

Garnet frowns. "I don't think so," she says, mulling it over. "If Narissa wanted to use street gangs to get us, she would not have had this stranger send us a note of warning first. But perhaps you are right. Perhaps events are being controlled."
