Paths of Legend - Tragedy at Silvergard

[crazy_monkey1956]

The guard replies to Estelle, "Yes, Guild members are allowed to stay at the Guild barracks free of charge, though most only do so to utilize the services of the healers we have there."

 

[ethandrew]

Estelle grins and punches William lightly, "Ha! What fun!" She turns back to the guard and gathers her composure a little better, her braided hair swinging about, "And after we sign up the first trip to the tavern is on the house, right?" she grins mischievously, her eyes shining as she looks sweetly at the man.

Valen smiled at the dwarf's reaction, and followed him to the low buliding. The young ranger reached into his belt for his money pouch... he suspected there may be a fee in addition to a signature, if he knew his Azgundians.

 

[crazy_monkey1956]

The guard smiles back, but with a look in his eyes that says he means business, "Actually, unless you have the fifty gold pieces for your initial membership, you have to complete a mission first...then you can utilize the tavern, and the barracks, and the tax free shops, and the exemptions from road tolls, and the library, and...well, let's just say it is worth the hassle."

 

[ethandrew]

She smiles to the guard and curtsies, "Thank you very much, brother. I am sure in no time we will be breaking bread together and slaying orcs at each other's side." She turns to walk away and then shouts half-crazed, "Fifty?!?"

 

[Amaury]

Johen was starting to wonder when they would ever reach that tavern. They had walked for an
hour! He tried to disguise his amazement at the city, its size, architecture, people and its goods
on offer. Certainly a whole different world to High Forest.

When the guard mentioned the fee he couldn't help reply: "Fifty gold pieces?? That can't be right!..
It's.." and stopped abruptly continuing for himself .. years of work for most of the people I know..

He then addressed the group: "I certainly cannot afford the membership fee!
Err... also I am not sure I understand why we need to go to this particular tavern?.. I have
seen many of them on the way from the gates... Some looked good enough to me.. Surely
we can just have an ale in one of them??"

[Arkhandus]

(Alaric would probably intend to head over to the Guild's Tavern, since he's probably most familiar with it.)

 

[Helfdan]

Valen smiled ruefully as he heard the price. He had been right about these Azgundi. He decided to accompany the dwarf, however, as the latter was still muttering, and apparently had not heard the exorbitant amount.

 

[Voda Vosa]

Muzdum was walking grumbling and grumbling words in his native language. Not very nice words, when his knee ears... That is, knee for money matters, catch the fee amount.
"What?! ARG!!!" he started jumping and hitting the air with fury. "What have a dwarf like me to do for having a nice ale! Ah curse yar' guild, yar' beds and yar' booze! May all the alcohol evaporates from yar' putrid buildin'! The druid is right, we don't have to stay here and be assaulted by this rat! Ah'm out of here!" the frustrated dwarf says, as he walks in other direction, apparently random, as he grumbles: " Fifty golds! I would shave my bread before paying fifty golds to that rats..."

 

[shadowmask]

Corath cocks her head to the side. Why do mortals bond over sustenance? I can forward my studies on this subject. She smiles slightly. "I will join you in a drink, Alaric. Where do you intend to go?" She pauses, obviously thinking. "Or, there is a dance hall nearby that should be opening again soon. Pardon the rudeness, but I heard you had an errand to finish. Would you rather finish it, or slake your thirst?"
