[QUOTE="Jarval, post: 453129, member: 421"] [i]The trackers:[/i] Gholog heads down the gentle slope into the clearing. It's quiet, almost unnaturally so, with only the slight hum of insects in the background. As he approaches the rocks, he can see that they are some kind of red stone with green flecks in them. You guess it's copper ore, but you can't be sure. Looking around, the half-orc spots a pit dug into the ground on the north side of the clearing. The remains of a large winch sit beside it, and two large copper sheets cover it over. [i]Kerrick and Seraphina:[/i] The square is now uncomfortably full, people jostling of space around you. Seraphina can feel Lucie's discomfort, the cat being surrounded by far too many strange people. Kerrick is getting very different feelings from Virch however. The psicrystal is fascinated by all the new faces around it, and is in a state of great excitement. Even Virch's attention is drawn to the platform as the mayor brings his gavel down with a [b]bang[/b] on the table in front of him. "Quiet please! The mayor is ready to address the gathering!" Yells a town crier, rather too loudly for Lucie's taste. The mayor stands from his seat, and the crowd does quieten somewhat. He clears his throat and begins to speak. "This meeting has been call to address your concerns." He calls to the crowd. "While we do have some problems, there is no call for the wild rumour mongering that has been taking place over the last week. Now, we do have troubles, I do not deny that, but we also have solutions! "Three children, two boys and a girl, are missing. All the children were old enough to have run away on their own. I've sent messages out to all of the nearby towns, and the Watch have been looking for them. In addition, the notable adventurers The Heroes of the Bell are also out seeking the children. Doubtless, they will be found soo..." "What good will The Heroes of the Bell do? They're missing as well!" comes a voice from the crowd. "Of course they are!" the mayor replies. "They're looking for the children! Surely you don't expect then to find the children right here in town, lost in the inn's common room, do you?" A slight ripple of laughter goes around the crowd, although several other townspeople boo the mayor. [/QUOTE]
