[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 3567693, member: 7006"] Jarrith now pulls out his notebook upon which he wrote down all the information the group acquired at Madam Eva's. He makes no mention of the gypsy woman and of the information she gave as being from a 'reading'... as the Stalker expects Ochem would disregard the information completely. Instead Jarrith emphasizes that the info he's giving comes from research and 'credible sources'... and prays that the companions don't open their mouths to give more "specifics". Because arguing with the archivist over the credibility of the information is not something he really wants to get into right now. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"Well, based on information we've already acquired from speaking to many members of the community here... the Burgomaster's children, a knight from the area named Sir Urik, Lady Ashlyn and her group The Lightbringers, several other townsfolk... plus papers and journals we've come across and looked through... we've got many good leads."[/COLOR] He begins reading bits and pieces of his notes, wording them in such a way as to be honest about locations, but allowing them to scout out and find the other bits of the mystery along the way, rather than just rush in, grab the tome, then rush out. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"The castle up in the mountain seems to be the nexus of all the problems here, the curses and such. While we suspect the tome in is it... the library we believe... word has it that just walking in is not necessarily possible, nor the safest or most prudent of actions..."[/COLOR] an embelishment Jarrith adds for effect. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"However there are a pair of relics that are held and hidden in the area here that our two knights... Sir Urik, and Lady Ashlyn... have been looking for and they say are strong in combating the taint that hangs over this land. A sunsword, and a holy symbol of the raven. It's my belief... and I think the others would back me up on this... that if we can reacquire these two holy items [I]first[/I], we would be at a much better position when we then advance on the castle to acquiring the tome."[/COLOR] Jarrith puts away his notebook before Ochem can ask to look through it, and instead then pulls out the two maps he has of Barovia (Ashlyn's and the Burgomaster's). He unfolds them both on the table so Ochem can see them. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"The raven's holy symbol is held by the witches on the hill here..."[/COLOR] he points to it's location. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"And the sunsword is in one of the forests here, guarded by some fey creatures."[/COLOR] He motions around some of the surrounding forest area, since they have not yet been able to determine exactly which forested section these fey creatures might be found in. [COLOR=DarkOrange]"So our plan of action is some time tomorrow head out to these two locations and try and reacquire these two relics. Once we have them in hand, we will then journey up into the mountains to the castle and see if the tome is indeed in the library like we suspect." [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
