[LPF] Ryall's Estate

[jbear]

These gems are worth a tidy sum. Enough for both of you to buy a new hut each Mr Rogue and Mr Ryall. And with enough left over for each of the rest of us to have a warm place to rest and a warm meal for the rest of the year. 11 gems maybe 800 gp give or take a hundred. They may or may not have a special meaning.

He scoops up the others scattered on the ground.

I am curious enough to continue despite the danger and despite the fact finacially with this find all harm can be repaired. I say we continue. There is a scrap of paper, somewhat torn, that was inside the pouch.

Relic offers it to the others to read before they press on.

OOC: Feel free to look at info above

It seems there are two factions within the Gabbiano house. One accusing the others financial success being due to deals with dark powers... the plot thickens.

Quioan took the scrap of parchment from Relic, read it with interest, and then passed it on to the others. "Interesting...I'm in agreement with you, Old Dog - let's continue on and see what things hold. It's nice to have made such a lucrative find as the gems, but I'm curious to learn I can about our house thief."

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Kazanto reads over the parchment fragment and shakes her head. "It is hard to believe that the land-folk care quite so much about the sea..."

 

[Systole]

Daylily regards the bit of paper in Quioan's hand but makes no move to examine it more closely. "Yes, yes, is very soft and absorbing, I ams sure. Although, I am not understand why you cans not just use a leaf for to wiping with. Is many easier. Now can we is go get big dinners?" Daylily says, clearly impatient.

 

[jbear]

This is not paper for cleaning the back side, Daylily ...

Relic looks at Kazanto considering her comment about the sea.

Hmmm ... boats ... huts ... I wonder when we will see both ends of the string.

Relic also impatient to continue before the light is lost heads out into the woods behind the tracks blindly.

 

[Systole]

Relic's sudden impatience takes Daylily by surprise. He quickly catches up to the old man, and says, "Uh ... maybe I am should take front, Elder Storyteller. And ... uh ... the tracks are more of being this way." He points about thirty degrees to the left.

 

[jbear]

Ah, yes, of course you are right, Rathunter, ehem ... I was just making sure you knew ...
lead the way!

GM: Sorry about the big delay, guys. It was a far more hectic weekend than I anticipated, and I didn't have time to do a proper update.

Ryall and Roug don't say much as the group ponders their next move. Both get rather wide-eyed as Relic gives his estimate of the worth of the gems, but it seems they're both interested in getting a bit of payback on whomever it was who swindeled them, as well.

Daylily stoops to the ground, rooting around the scuffle of boot and hoofprints, having a heck of a time getting them all sorted out to tell for sure which way either set leads. Before he can manage it, however, a loud series of snorts and crashing sounds let everyone know the boar appears to be on its way back.

GM: No surprise round this time around. Boar knows there's folk in the clearing, and you know it's coming. Crashing noises are coming from the west. Roll initiative. If you beat a 3 (Yeouch: Boar Initiative (1d20=3)), you can act before the boar comes charging into the clearing. After that, we'll be into first-post again.

 

[Qik]

OOC: No worries, jk - hope things settle down for you.

Hearing the sound of approaching boar, Quioan turns to Daylily.

[sblock=Elvish]"Daylily, whatsay I make you big-big, all the better to net us some bacon?"[/sblock]

Having cast the spell, Quioan raises his bow and turns towards the clearing's edge, waiting for the boar to emerge.

OOC: Initiative 1d20+5=10 If Daylily/Systole is interested in having me cast Enlarge Person on them, I'll do so; if not, I'll cast Gravity Bow on myself instead.

 

[Systole]

Daylily keeps his eyes glued to the west. "Ye think now is a good time for mystic fiddlin'!?" he replies in Elvish. It looks like it's up to Quioan to decide how he wants to proceed, as Daylily sets into a ready stance, his knuckles whitening around the earthbreaker.

OOC: Assuming I beat a 5 initiative, Daylily will ready action to rage and charge as soon as he sees the boar. He already has his weapon out as posted above in #106.
