The Welcome Wench
You are Heroes I say, Heroes! … and Korbryn especially
Replies the stout dwarf to Ithiken
****************************
Sitting around a table and enjoying fine cheap wine (5cp) and Redithidoor Halfmoon's quite melodie you wait for the arrival of the potion seller.
Half an hour later the wizard burst in with a smile, the dwarf raises a toast for that and departure to the bar, the wizard takes the dwarf's seat and speaks
The gods love you my friends.
He pulls out a scroll and place it on the table
The scroll holds a spell that would bring Korbryn to the "meat" world once again but … Lord Burne deserves payment for his powerful magical item and I obligated In your name that you'll pay him back.
He takes what little left of Haunor drink and drains it out.
Not before I told him that you saved me, drove out a blue wyrm from the nearby bogs and cleared out the gnolls from the moathouse, you see, he is an old friend of mine.
The payment should be as following … once you save Korbryn, Burne and Rufus wants you to find out if the rumors of Hobgoblins which infest the old crumpled Temple are true, if do clear them out and return to report to Elmo.
He turns around in his chair to Elmo and calls
Hey Chub face, Rufus will see you in an hour, in the back room for a card game.
It's about time, Alphon here is plays like an amateur.
He laugh loudly and nudge the Halfling in the ribs.
Turning back to you, Spugnoir hands the scroll to Ithiken.
I know you master the arcane and you should have it, but this spell is powerful and should be handle accordingly, it could e above your powers but you must take a grip and try to cast it, Lord Burne is well behind his adventure days and will not come with you, neither am I as I'm a potion seller and herbalists. now ...
He stands up.
I must excuse and return to my daughter
He bows slightly.
We shall meet again friends.
Leaving the table you spot the ugly Halfling again, making his way to your table.
Himmble is the name, you remember …
He says
Have you heard something about my parents?
