The Forgotten Forge

[DEFCON 1]

'Join House Tharashk? Well, that IS interesting. Tell me sir... what is your experience in the retrieval arts? You must understand that House Tharashk is not just a bunch of folks who go looking for things, but is the premiere organization for the search and recovery of important objects and people. And those under our employ have gone through exhaustive testing and training to assure they are the most qualified for any jobs we may need to send them on.

Tell you what... the House has a standard test that all potential employees might undertake and pass before they become legitimate candidates. A "scavenger hunt" if you will. You come to our Sharn headquarters further up the skyway in three days time... tell them that Pohl D'Velderan sent you for examination... and they will take care of setting you up for the hunt. Sounds good? Wonderful! Now, if you'll excuse me, I really must be getting back to my friends here. Thank you! Have a good night! Bye bye!'

And with that, Pohl tries to turn the man around and shoo him away from the three of them. Once the man has taken a few steps away, Pohl turns back to Tai and Zane and says quietly to the two of them...

'As I was saying, things seem to be a little crowded here. What say we go down the hallway over there so we can take a look at this envelope that you were handed, hmm?'

Zane nods his head and stands, awaiting Tai with a "M'lady" and a smile, and then heads the way Pohl indicated.

 

[DarkMaster]

The bald men seems a bit frustrated by Pohl's answer but before he can starts yelling at him he is quickly grabbed by the little men who said he wanted to fight. Looking to see if Pohl sees him he punches him in the face yelling "You didn't hear what lord D'Velderan said" As the bald men falls on the ground, the thin one continue to shower him with blow. Blood starts to spill on the ground and a few clients of the bar jump on him to stop him.

The men overwhelmed by the other customer falls on the ground. The small agressive men is thrown out of the bar and the other is brough in a small room behind the bar by the half-ogre working at the entrance.

A few second later Florana comes running to Pohl. "Pohl, we need your help the men is really in bad shape and might not make it through the night without help from you" The barmaid looks very desperate and scarred.

 

[Delemental]

Tai stands immediately upon hearing Florana describe the bald man's condition, but catches herself before she runs off. She looks at Pohl and Zane.

"Master Marcela, forgive me for not answering your question - I'm afraid all the noise and activity in here is distracting me terribly. However, it seems I may be needed again. I only hope what little stength I have left is enough. But given the rather violent mood in here, I would appreciate a little company while I see what I can do for this man. Would either of you mind coming with me?"

Tai will wait for a moment to see if either of the two men are coming. Whether they are or not, Tai will begin moving toward the small room behind the bar.

 

[DEFCON 1]

Ugh... can't these people control their drinking? Haven't any of them ever heard of moderation? Try to do something nice and it always blows up in your face!

...Pohl thinks to himself as the small scuffle happens and the two men are seperated and pulled back. As he watches the small man get thrown out on the street and the bald man carried to the back room, he turns to the bartender and addresses him.

'All right. Tab's closed for now. We'll cover everything ordered so far, but anything new is on them now. I'm not going to soil the House name by having a riot in here.'

The Urban Ranger tries once more to engage the young wizard and the cleric of Boldrei in conversation regarding the envelope that was mysteriously dropped in their lap, when Florana comes up quickly and concerned.

'Pohl, we need your help. The man is really in bad shape and might not make it through the night without help from you.'

Pohl's eyes close and he lets out a long deep breath, trying to maintain his anger. He opens them up and once more puts the twinkle in his eye that makes people he speaks to think that they are the most important people in the world. It's a look and attitude he has cultivated over many years and is the reason he is as popular as he tends to be... despite the fact that behind that veneer of comraderie Pohl usually is insulting the person on the inside.

'Very well. I will see to him.'

When Tai also says that she will go to help the man in the back and asks Zane to come along as well, Pohl actually is relieved. Now the three of them can get out of this throng of humanity and hole up somewhere quiet to look at the envelope... oh, and to help the hurt bald guy of course.

'Very good idea, my dear. Let us go to the back. Magus Marcela? It would please us both if you came along... it wouldn't be a continuation of the night's adventure without you along!'

Zanick 'Zane' Marcela, human wizard

Zane shakes his head and smiling but follows along... quitely thinking about what he just got himself into and with who

 

[DarkMaster]

The bartender nods at Pohl request and stop serving free beverages.


The group follow Florana who is in tears "What just happened, I will be in big trouble. why why does it always happen to me"

Tai approaches the injured man and attend his wounds, she relatively easily stabilise the men. The only thing he will need now his a good amount of rest he lost a large amount of blood from his injury. Tai wonder how the small men was able to damage him that much in such a short amount of time. The whole time she was attenting the men she could hear Florana saying "You will never save him and I will get all the problem, Impossible he is too badly hurt, what are you doing stop the bleeding, Pohl do something......You saved him, unbeleivable thanks a thousand thanks As Tai finishes, Florana stays with the group waiting to see what they will do next, amazed by Tai healing talents.

Zanick 'Zane' Marcela, human wizard

Zane watches Tai once again save someone, his eyes fairly wide with admiration If only my magic could work in such a way

 

[Delemental]

Perhaps that's one more person in this world that might think twice before assuming the worst about a changeling, she thinks to herself, while listening to Florana extend her thanks.

Tai nods and smiles at Florana as she cleams the blood from her hands. "I was happy to be of service, Florana. I'd suggest that you let this man rest here tonight, and he can go home in the morning. Tell him he should rest at home for another day, and try not to scratch at the wound." She pulls out a small wooden token engraved with the symbol of Boldrei and presses it into the man's hand. "Tell him that should he require further attention, go to the nearest church and present that to one of the clergy, and they will check his injuries again."

"But for now, I'd recommend that you go back to work. It will keep your mind off this evening's violence, and others will be reassured by seeing you return to your normal routine. There's really nothing more you can do here."

She will turn to address Zane next. "Well, Master Marcela," she says, low enough to keep Florana out of the conversation, "I'm curious as to what's in that envelope that seems to be causing such a stir."

She will turn to address Zane next. "Well, Master Marcela," she says, low enough to keep Florana out of the conversation, "I'm curious as to what's in that envelope that seems to be causing such a stir."

Zane nods his head "Quit... but let us retire to somewhere more private"
