Strahd's "RttToEE" CLOSED

While it has been many years since he had heard a formal sermon, Lenuran thought that while a little heavy handed it was presented well, and that more often than not was what people remembered the most.

As the crowd began to disperse, Lenuran nodded in passing to Calmer, but kept silent for once allowing Miltiades to pass quickly to catch up with Elmo.

Elmo - Captain of the militia

Voadam said:
"Indeed, Kid." Miltiades rises and moves over to Elmo. "Good morning Sherriff. Would now be a good time to talk?"

Oh … Good morning champs, yes I remember you Sir from last night.
We can speak in those halls of justice…

He says and looks around, the majority of people already left the church, only Calmer and another acolyte who cleans and organize the area.
… Or we can sit my yard.

You can see clearly that Elmo's face seems to be in the right color and not tomato red as he was yesterday, after drinking large amounts of alcohol.
 

"The Halls of Justice will do fine sherrif." Miltiades says with a pleasant friendly smile. Deciding to accept the gnome's warnings the priest chooses his words carefully, expressing his interest in the history of the temple and his intention to learn what he can. The priest asks after Elmo's experience as one of the heroes who stood against the former uprising. Miltiades listens attentively and appreciatively as the man relates what old tales he is willing to share. The cleric asks after the cannoness who supposedly also was involved and if the Sherrif could arrange an introduction. Lastly he asks after anything he should watch out for currently as there are rumors of bandits and such. "As I said last night, it was such rumors that led us to travel armed and ready for conflict.."
 

Elmo

Elmo is quite happy to speak about his brave deeds, he suggested continuing the story on a drink later on, "there is nothing more pleasant then to speak about me as a hero over a good wine" he said.
As for the Canoness, he blames her for the death of his Brother Otis, you could hear the disgust he holds for her in his voice and the only reason he comes to the church is because of his friend Calmer, as for he is a true believer of Pelor rather then St. Cuthbert.
As for rumors, Yether the keen, the main priest of Pelor and Elmo's good friend told him some concerning news about some disturbing presence of strange people outside town but good old Jaroo calmed him about it, so right now he is still thinking what to do about it.
As for the Hobgoblins in the ruins of the former temple, Elmo said that he and his militia fought those nasty creatures and drove them back to the temple, convincing the evil humanoids to stay away from Hommlet, it's too well defended.

***************

While the others gather in the church and speak with Elmo, Edirion and the kid wait outside.
I'm returning to inn to bring something, wait for me …
Edirion says to Thandis and departs.

[sblock=OOC] It seems that Land Outcast left the game for RL obligations, I'll play his character Edirion, I have some good plans for his Elf. [/sblock]

The Kid nods, and continues to play with his daggers. This time, he juggles them between his two hands. A few of the local children notice, watch, and giggle, until a passing marm shoos them away. As she gives the Kid a stern look as she walks by, the Kid smiles but says nothing.
 

"So Calmer who gave the sermon this morning is a good man and a true friend you say? I should introduce myself to him as well as this Yether the Keen as fellow clergy of the gods of Good. I thank you for your time and your tales Sherrif, and for your work against the forces of Evil. Do you think now would be a good time for me to meet the good Cuthbertian?"

Miltiades will plan on meeting Calmer, try to set up a later meeting with the Cannoness who was their other more discrete contact, and then plan on following up with the Pelor priest to establish friendly relations and find out about the rumor of possible ochre robed men to investigate as well.
 

Korbryn will approach the cleric of St. Cuthbert. With a slight nod of greeting, he introduces himself. "Greetings, Father Calmer. I be Korbryn, and acquaintance of Tragge's. He was a bit worried about the wizard Spugnois' disappearance, and I thought ye might have a moment to chat."
 

Calmer, Priest of St. Cuthbert.

You catch Calmer off duty, going over the donations of the believers, he turns with a smile to Korbryn and Miltiades.
No father yet but a simple priest I am and a loyal servant of the cudgel
He says with a smile.
Haunor (The dwarven Guard) have told me that Spugnoir is missing for the last few days, it is common not to see him for a day or two but it is been too long, usually he scout the land around and loves the nature, leaving his ten year old and extraordinary intelligent daughter all alone to take over the store, but you are right, something is not right, I'll go over to his store and speak with his daughter as soon as I finish counting the donations.
He nods toward a brass basin and turns to Miltiades.
Peace be upon thy, Priest of Rao
He says and shakes your hand.
Unfortunately our blessed Canoness is out of town, and Father Terjon - who is currently not here - is in charge, but I can provide any services and take any donations.

Listening and taking mental notes for his journals, Lenuran stays out of the way as best he can. While he knows that the others must establish a relationship with one another, he can not shake the feeling that they are revealing too many of their thoughts too soon. It was like playing a game of castles and while he personally felt they were just beginning their first move, the others acted as though they had flushed several castles out of hiding and were preparing to finish them off.
