Of Sound Mind II

Kerrick:

"You're right, it's not just because of people calling me 'witch' of late. I'm a seer, and I've seen what is to come for this town. The dreams will stop within a week, that's true, but not for good. No-one in Bellhold will be able to dream within a week, because no-one will have free will. The whole town is being drawn under some spell." Utrish replies quickly. "And don't go thinking I've got anything to do with it. My gift doesn't let me choose what I see, and my magical skills are minor to say the least."

She stops and studies your face again, then reaches into her bag. "And you're right on another count, no-one wishes the children ill. You wish to help them, so I'll aid you in turn." She passes you a small phial of turquoise liquid. "It's a elixir that should patch up any hurts you might get along the way."

She takes her bag off you and continues along the path, calling back over her shoulder. "You'd better get back to your friends, I think they may wish for your company."


The search party:

OOC: Not to put a dampner on the heroics, but you've not slept for over 36 hourzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.... Erm, sorry, nodded off there

Kerrick Jonez

Kerrick calls back as the old woman takes here leave, "My thanks for everything. I'll do my bast to make sure you have a home to come back to." Then rushes back toward the inn hoping to find Seraphina.

 

[Zhure]

Gholog

Exhausted from the events of the long day and a half, Gholog makes a weary way to the inn, where hopefully Seraphina has readied some rooms.

 

[Acmite]

Adren

Indeed, Gholog, I am weary as well. Shall we agree to meet with the others again in half-a-day's time? That might be too long a wait, though. What do you think?

 

[Jarval]

Kerrick quickly returns to the Bell and Clapper, finding his companions quitely discussing the day's events in one corner of the inn's common room.

Checking with the barkeeper, Gholog finds that there are rooms available.

"Alright, I suggest that we get some rest." Seraphina says. "We need to rest, and gather up our strength, for whatever may come tomorrow."

"By the way, Gholog," Seraphina says, as she rises from her stool, "is there anything specific you're looking for, magic-wise? When I prepare my spells in the morning, I'd like to be able to memorize some that you think would be useful. I don't mean like specific spells, but what kind of things that you'd like for us to be able to do, magic-wise."

 

[Zhure]

Gholog

Gholog sleepily replies to Seraphina: "You're the expert and prepare what you think is best. The tunnel was dark and dank, there were a lot of roaches, and those shrieking heads were unnerving." He continues on, explaining in as great a detail as she wants.


To Adren: "I think leaving a message at the desk for our companions to be ready to explore in the morning, a half hour after sunrise, should give us enough time. I'd prefer to assault the place with daylight at my back."

... with that, Gholog retires for the night and tries to fall asleep as quickly as possible.

Kerrick strolls over to the table and sits down, "I didn't find much, but we may have less then a week before what ver is causeing the nightmares enthrallls all of Bellhold."

..."I didn't find much, but we may have less then a week before whatever is causeing the nightmares enthrallls all of Bellhold."

"O...kay..." Jason says as a look comes across his face indicating he feels this is a very strange thing to hear. "That's really the most important thing I've heard all day. Who'd you hear it from? Do you think we can trust--" he pauses. "Great. Now I'm becoming like the rest of you," he says, smiling. "I guess I really do need to sleep."

 

[Zhure]

Gholog

... sleeps.
