Magyar Rhineholdt, human rogue
Mag feels heat rising in his cheeks, embarrassed by his suspicions, especially at the sight of Lissa's teary eyes. When she threatens to truly open the floodgates at news of the captain, Mag tries to dissuade her.
"He's wandered off, Lissa," Mag says, looking to the others for support. "We're trying very hard to find him, though. That's why we were so worried when you and Troth seemed to disappear; we haven't even found the captain yet, and we thought we'd lost track of you, as well. But now that you're back with us, we can get back on the trail."
[sblock=OOC]Ah, the joys of a Chaotic alignment: Mag feels high and mighty trying to sniff out lies in others, then turns around and start slinging them himself.
Now, technically, everything he's said is true: the captain wandered off, and they haven't found him (or his body) as of yet. I think, though, that Mag's implying enough that's not-fully-honest that I should probably be a good sport and roll a Bluff (+7 modifier) [/sblock]

Troth looks at his companions 'bah' 'ok' 'lets stick with the plan of tracking Capt Ben' he looks down at Lissa 'we get them out of there girl, you got Troth's word on it' he pats the girl on her head and walks to the street when the others do.

Grondar
When all settles Grondar turns to go
I'll lead
He calls and heads to the town's morgue

Hanging in there. Better than the alternative.
"Well," Malachi agrees with Mag, "I certainly don't see Captain Ben around. He's obviously gone someplace. No matter what, Adonai is with him, though."
Grondar looks to be ready to go, so Malachi also makes sure he is ready to go. "All right, let's be off."

" 'Other children'?" Denther asks as if coming out of a fog. "What do you mean 'other children', Troth?"
Turning to the rest of the group. "As far as Cap'n Ben being 'gone' goes, we don't know much of anything except he wasn't on the ship and he's not here. This is a big city and I, for one have never been here before and wouldn't even begin to know where or how to find him except to ask the guards, and they seem to know even less than we do.
"I know that, when it comes right down to it, I'm a simple shepherd. But, it seems to me, before we go trekking through the city, we need more information on here the cap'n was and who he spoke with."

As they walk to the main street 'Yes Denther, there are more children where Lissa escaped from, and we are helping them to escape when we find the Cap, we still need hm to sail the Pander Ban' 'the children are very close to where we stand now, but we must try to find the Captain first'

"Hold for a second, let's think about this for a second. Your injured you are carring a prisoner where do you go? All the darker goings on in this town seem to lead back to the same one person. So all of business on the shadier side are connected. It would make since if there was a problem you would go to your closest sanctuary. It is possible that the captin was takin to the holding cell nomrally reserved for younger children. Now as much as I would like to we cannot rescue the Captin or the Girls right now because one very well could cause repercusions on the other. I am tring to work out a plan now but before implementing it we need to know where both the girls and the Captin is being held. I vote we go take a look at this gathering place Lissa is talking about."
Pulling Mallachi aside and says in a lower voice, "I need to be a shield to those girls and others in this town before we move on."

"That's true, Wakil," Malachi considers the thought, "But it shouldn't be difficult to check the first place where the captain probably is... according to Mac, you see. Also, it might give us more information, which can't hurt. The more preparation we have, the higher chance of success we have."
When Wakil pulls him aside, he also says in a lower voice, "According to the information we have, the Captain is in the morgue. I'm hoping he's alive as much as you are, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. You will be able to help those children, but in due time. We can't assume that there's just one bad guy here, and go killing evil and asking questions later. If we can find the note on the body of the captain, that could be pretty damning evidence... Remember, first let the enemy be revealed, then make your attack."
