Shackled City - Chapter II

[Manzanita]

Raven

"I am known as Raven. I appreciate your directness Fellian, and Fario. My comrades and I are also investigating the local kidnappings. Perhaps you would care to step inside the Keygan's shop and we could talk about what we know. Please give me a few moments to speak to my colleagues before you come, as they can be quick with their weapons."

Assuming they're amenable to this, Raven will retreat back into the shop, and tell her companions what she has discovered.

 

[Majin]

Fellian and Fario nod their compliance to Raven's plan and descend to the street with her, waiting patiently outside of Keygan's shop for her signal to enter.

 

[Manzanita]

Raven

Raven enters the shop by the front door. "Hey!" she says loudly, halfway assuming that the group is still bickering. "I found our spies. They are two half elves who give the names of Fario and Fellian. They say they are investigating the disapearence of their friend Elthor Ashstaff, and think he may have been taken here. As he probably was."

"I invited them in to talk with us as a group, since I was feeling pretty vunerable out there by myself. Perhaps we should tell them what we have found and invite them to accompany us into the tunnels. There is a chance they are spies for the theives guild, though. What do you guys think?"

Orpheus looks up from his music at the sound of Raven shouting. He nods in understanding as she explains the situation.
"By all means Raven, send them in," he says, seeing no need to leave them waiting, and pretending not to notice the fact that someone is going to have a problem with this.
Just because...

 

[Dhes]

Elyas puts down his book and looks up at Raven. “Sound like a good plan, why not invite these two half elves that we don’t know anything about into our midst. But then again, I joined you guys without knowing anything about you, so ya why not, every sword helps.”

 

[hippocrachus]

As if on cue... he thinks to himself dryly.

 

[Mimic]

Since we are investigating the kidnappings it is possible that others are as well. It would be best to pool our resources and go down together. Althron says nodding as Raven goes back out to get the half elves.

 

[kirinke]

Alinis grins slightly. "As my uncle always says, keep your friends close and your enemies closer and those who are neither, slap a permanent scry-spell on them so you know where they are."

 

[Verbatim]

Zeric heard Raven's voice from inside the gnome's kitchen and sighed at the thought of more people slowing them down.

~Why not just funnel the entire city watch below and wait and see.~

Zeric turned and started to reenter the room, but thought better of it. Regardless of his thoughts, the others would take them the opposite way that they were intended, so it was better to simply keep his mouth shut and let the others slam the hammer upon their hand to see that it stings.

~Besides, it isn't like they want my opinion anyway...to them I am only capable of one thing.~

Taking more salted meat from the gnome's pantry and pouring himself a glass of weak beer, Zeric stood in the kitchen and listened to the others speak to the strangers.

 

[Majin]

Fario and Fellian enter the shop cautiously, taking in the group and considering each member they can see. Each of them bow their heads slightly and Fellian speaks. "We are pleased to make your acquaintance. Your companion, Raven, suggested that our quests are similar and perhaps we could share information?"
