[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 7155240, member: 29398"] Thinking about it, however, two of Foghorn's worries quickly concatenated into one, and then vanished: [I]- we need a 1000 g.p. diamond - there's some duergar digging their mine up to us as we speak Those duergar must have found some diamonds...and we're heavy on thiefy types, never mind it's their companion this is all for...seems obvious to me: when those duergar get here, whack 'em and take their diamonds![/I] "Yes, that's it!" he cried. Foghorn stepped out the door. "KEYES!" he called, "Leave that for later! We're gonna need you in here in a minute!" Of course all Keyes heard through the rain was something like "Keyes - heave at a waiter - we're gonna feed you in a minute"; but she was hungry and the idea of being fed sounded good, so she left the palfrey to graze and dripped into the tavern. "Where's the food?" Keyes asked on seeing a bunch of quite empty-looking tables. "What food?" asked several people in reply, whereupon Keyes gave Foghorn a look that might have frozen vodka had there been any here to freeze. "Look" said Foghorn, "People. I think I've solved some of our problems...or well, not quite yet; but the solution's probably going to come up through the floor in an hour or two, so be ready." Sister Jericho nodded sagely, as if this all made perfect sense; meanwhile Ronni looked at Keyes and gave a not-quite-so-secret guild signal clearly indicating she thought ol' Foggy had lost a few marbles somewhere. And as for Cholmondley...well, if he was confused before........ [/QUOTE]
