Re: Gholog
"I'd advise against traveling at night." interjects the barkeep.
"These folk are warriors and adventurers. I'm sure they would not fear bandits." says the woman. "And they are right, delay brings a greater chance that harm may befall the children."
"As you will." the barkeep replies. "But the day brings safety, and I doubt a few hours will change matters much."

"I think that travelling at night is worth the risk, if it is to help save children." Seraphina says with conviction. "We can find rest at Bellhold, if we need it, and we are more than a match for anything that we'll encounter along the way."
Seraphina jumps lightly off of her stool, and replaces it where she found it.
"Fellow adventurers, do you feel up to the task? If we can, we should travel now. Sleep in your saddles, if you must - I am sure that you can. I can keep watch during the ride, so long as at least one other stays awake in case I fall off to sleep."
Seraphina then turns to the family.
"We shall find out what is going on at Bellhold, and we shall find your nephew - as well as the other missing children."
She then walks to the door, and turns to face the group again.
"What do you want to do? Stay, and rest, or go, while the night is still young?"

My eyes are keen, and my spirit strong. I fear not what hides in the forest's depths. With stalwart friends alongside me, how could I be in any danger?
We will find your nephew, ma'am. And we will return with him once it is safe.
I will be ready to leave once I have eaten! Friend Innkeeper! How're those potatoes coming? My hunger grows with the excitement of our iminent departure!

"Sounds to me like a bunch of heroic non-sense You help no one if your dead. I've done much traveling in my life and roads are seldom safe at night, that said, if you all are that set on leaveing now i suppose i can help."
Kerricks scowling gase slips over each would be hero as he says this.

"Thank you." the woman says, her relief obvious.
"Gods be with you." her husband adds. "When you get to the village, speak with Captain Haldik. He'll be grateful for any help you can give him."
The barkeep listens to all this, then starts at Adren's comment. "I'm sorry sir, I'd forgotten all about your food. I'll fetch it at once. And it's on the house for all you folks." he adds, looking around at the rest of the party. "It's not often we get heroes in my inn."

Kerrick groans and puts his head in his hands.
"At least i got a bath even if i'm goin to miss out on the nice soft bed."

After Kerrick's scowling visage passes her, Seraphina looks darkly at Kerrick.
"You find creature comforts more important than the lives of children, and possibly others? The night may pose dangers to us, true - but what if we stay the night here, to travel to Bellhold in the morning, and find that another child was taken in the night? Consider that, my friend, while we ride."

Seraphina's face becomes one of surprise, which then quickly becomes indignation, as Gholog asks the innkeep for free cheese.
"Gholog! We're not going to take the innkeep's food simply because he's giving it out for free now. That would be taking unfair advantage of him, and that's not very friendly of us."
She pulls out a small purse from somewhere hidden on her person, pulls out two gold coins, places them on the bar, and replaces her purse.
"Thank you, innkeep, for your hospitality. I'm sorry that we couldn't stay longer, but we have good cause for going so quickly."
With that, Seraphina walks out to the stables, calling out, "I'll get our mounts ready while you finish up in the inn."
