Atesh Yakhar, Baklunish Sorcerer

Atesh grumbles "Bad tempered old dwarf... This is exactly what we needed!"

“Well, you think we should check out this lonely dwarf? A guide might be useful, we have to catch up six days at least.”

 

[wmasters]

"I'd think a guide can only be a good thing, worth checking out at least." Turo replies, "Even if it's just because it means we won't get lost on the way".

Turo picks up a cookie and savours the treat, brushing crumbs off his tunic.

Maor , Yair's character

Those are probably The knights and Priests of the Velunian party, six days ahead of us is something difficult to catch.
Replies Maor and takes a sip from his fresh whiskey.
We better talk to that grumpy dwarf before we go to sleep, so we could leave first thing on the morning, we should tell him that we head into the heart of the Yatils but if he will be curious and ask for our final destination, what shall be our answer to him?

“Well, 'nothing of your concern' might not be the wisest choice,” Allyra says with a quick wink.

 

[wmasters]

Turo smiles, "Why we must tell him where we're going surely! There seems little point in hiring a guide and not letting him know where to guide us to! Why we must go there we can keep to ourselves of course..." he announces

"Well, I think we can say that we're on an expedition into the mountains following up on some rumors. We don't need to be specific, only that it may take us in fairly far and see how good his knowledge is of the area." Garon adds as he finishes up his meal and drink. "Besides, we may want to switch guides if we can find a settlement further into the mountains. A more local guide may be more helpful than someone out here."

 

[Steve Gorak]

Agreed. We will talk to him tomorrow morning then. Besides, I like mu companions grumpy" Keldayr says, in a light hearted tone that shows that's he's opening up to his companions.

Gorash the lonesome

You go to your cozy rooms and prepare to sleep, after cursing the partying dwarves you fall a sleep after a couple of hours, the beds are warm and comfortable and you sleep well.

Third Waterday, Coldeven 19/3/600

You wake up to the sound of the breakfast's bell and enjoy delicious boiled eggs, goat's cheese and corn bread. Packing and taking your horses you soon find yourselves in front of the isolated dwarf's hut, a low stone fence circles a stone hut, "Keep Out" sign, written in Dwarvish and the common tongue greets you when you approach the stony hut.
What is your business within my property strangers?! Speak fast!
A deep voiced yell comes out from behind a pile of logs, an elderly dwarf peeks from behind, around 200 years old you guess, with uncared grey beard, wrinkled face and "I saw enough in my life" kind of look, he holds a big blood dripping knife in one hand, in his other hand you spot the remains of an otter.
He drops the otter and nails the knife into one of the logs, he cleans his hands on his working smock and approach.
What do you want?! I don't have the whole day for your kind

“You must be Gorash. It is said, that you are an expert of the mountains and the surrounding territory. That's why we are here. We could need your help as a guide through the mountain range in the north. We have gold.”
