Shackled City - Chapter II

We do seem to have a bit of confusion as to what everyone is doing right now. Are we

a) Storing the treasure in the hidden library?
b) Going back to the church to have Leanthas judged?
c) Skipping ahead past the clearing out of the rest of the dungeon?

Or some combination there of. ;)

Alinis sighs at Orpheous' shouting. "Ok. First we go store the treasure in the hidden library. Then we take Leathas to be judged by the priest. Then we get some rest, come back, gather up the loot and sell it before going further."

"Is that good enough?" she asks wryly.

"We can also knock Zeric over the head if he doesn't get some rest on his own while we are on the surface. He's going to get himself killed if he keeps on pushing himself like this," she adds in elvish.

I thought we were taking all the treasure back up to the temple. There we would take what we liked & sell/donate the rest. Then we would ask the Temple to clear out the gnome city, and proceed from there.
 


"Why make two unneeded trips?" he asks the elven archer, shaking his head in frustration; his rage slowly simmering. "And why does Leanthas need to be judged by anybody but ourselves?" he pauses... "He travels with us. Let his actions guide our judgement."
He stares around at the others to see what they would say, pointedly looking Leanthas in the eyes to show that trust is something to be earned.
"Raven is tired. We will take this treasure above ground and sell it for as a good a price as can be fetched. She will go to the temple and rest."
When Alinis mentions Zeric, Orpheus rolls his eyes and spits on the ground.
"Let the barbarian do as he pleases, Alinis. He lacks the wisdom to make that call; let experience teach him," he replies in Elven, clearly no longer concerned what the Hexblade chooses to do.
He strives so hard for Law and yet all he leaves in his wake is Chaos.
He looks to Althron and addresses him in Dwarven.
"Return to the surface with us or follow after Zeric," he attempts sternly. "It is your choice."
 

"You asked for a plan to be made, I suggested one my friend. Your plan does sound better though," she added. "As for Leanthas," she shrugged. "It matters not, truly. We may as well keep him close though, if nothing else than to keep an eye on him."
 

OOC:[sblock]And after all that work moving the treasure in the library...*sigh* I am sure that Zeric can be reigned in with time, but at the moment the inactivity pushed him back to the point where he had to have action again. As for the plan, I thought it was lock up the loot, finish here, go back up for massive sell and re-equip and then on with either the return to the gnomish city of FFwd to the next part. Either way, I am open for all suggestions.[/sblock]
 

ooc:
too bad ritalin hasn't been invented yet for this guy. ;) It will teach him to wait untill a plan has been made and agreed on though.
 

Orpheus nods passively, not bothering to point out he never asked for a plan so much as an opinion. He turns to Leanthas.
"Just tell me one thing. How did you stay alive in that library for so long without food or water?" he asks with an arched eyebrow, the answer he is given will make or break the elf's story.
 

"Magic." he replies to the half-human troubadour. Seeing that it won't satisfied him, he shows his hand to him. A slim and dexterous hands with only a copper ring for ornementation. The ring is of simple fabric, plain, but seems perfectly done in his simplicity. "A gift from a druid. That ring allow me to live without food or water. Usefull to study long hours without interruption."
