The Four Lands - The Great North

[Scotley]

Bertrand

"There proximity to an apparent murderer gives us cause to ask them questions. Maybe not about what they might be up to, but about what they've seen or heard in the cabin across the hall."

 

[Rhun]

Vadric

"That's an excellent notion, Bertran. We'll simply knock and introduce ourselves... The knight smiles. "Forcefully, if need be."

 

[Canaan]

Jaroth

"That's precisely what I mean, Finnian. He was here when we returned." Jaroth looks at the wererat.

"I think we best find out who, exactly, is missing other than the corpse upstairs. Then we might discover which crew man or passenger is this creature."

 

[Canaan]

Jaroth

"That's an excellent notion, Bertran. We'll simply knock and introduce ourselves... The knight smiles. "Forcefully, if need be."

"That can be arranged, Vadric." Jaroth smiles.

"With much less noise and ruckus than you might imagine. Leave it to me, if need be."

For Finnian
[sblock]Continuing to listen at the door Finnian keeps overhearing comments such as "Timing is not right"..."They will be along shortly"...."When they can be overpowered" and "She will make a lovely Prize"......As he enganging his talent to read their thoughts Finnian is overwhelmed by a heavy static almost a shielding coming from somewhere....trying to listen thru the static.....Finnian is able to discern that the voices behind the door are thinking of money, and the overwhelming thought of fear...[/sblock]

As the party continures to discuss the next course of action...the hallway begins to fill with people going to their rooms, thus the hallway is not filled for long.....some looks are giving the party but most scurry back to their rooms...and the sounds of furniture being placed against the doors can be heard coming from several of the rooms.

 

[Dracomeander]

Finnian

Finnian staggers slightly and shakes his head as his probe hits the static before forcing himself to concentrate further. He then turns to the others.

"I can't tell who their target is, but the ones in here are planning a kidnapping if not worse. Their talk is filled with plans to overpower someone and a lady who will make a great prize while their thoughts are filled with dreams of money and fears of being caught.

"We should probably make our introductions and find out what they are doing here now.

"Also, there is something warding against divination magics on board possibly among the passengers who just returned to their rooms. It's not from in here, but the feedback of encountering the warding nearly floored me before I was able to concentrate through it."

 

[Rath Lorien]

"Very well then, we shall make our introductions." Anniston knocks firmly on the door.

 

[Scotley]

Bertrand

"I expect people are taking all the precautions they know how including whatever magic they can muster. A death like this on a ship far out at sea can be very distrubing." Bertrand considers who he has met onboard that might make a 'great prize.'

 

[Rhun]

Vadric follows Anniston as the paladin knocks on the nearby door. He sheaths his blade, knowing that he can draw it again in an instant should he need it.

Anniston steps towards the Door with Vadric close behind. Anniston begins to knock on the door. In response to his knock, Finnian hears scraping noises. A brassy voice calls out "Who's there?"
