The Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter IV

[Seonaid]

Chastity follows the others to Applebottom's cell and stands patiently, trying her best to look non-threatening. Let's have this over! she prays.

 

[Jarval]

Andreas stands quietly in the background, watching the proceedings. At Ayden's mention of a truth spell, he perks up and watches the casting closely.

Teleri smiled sadly at the former mayor, crossing her arms as she watches the spell. Death is preferable to slavery. She thought to herself. I wonder if he realizes that? Especially the kind of slavery Naamani enjoys. she keeps a careful hand on the sword, taking nothing for granted. He may be down, but I do not think he is completely helpless. she thinks, half to herself and half to the sword. And he is taking too much interest in you, she adds.


ooc:
Majin, with the ale thing, Teleri was trying to be thoughtful..... not sarcastic.

 

[Majin]

OoC: Kirinke - Actually the sword was "rolling it's eyes" in response at Teleri's apology for getting everyone to go down into the well again, sorry I didn't make that clear, my fault. Although, in any situation, due to the sword's attitude, I do not think the sword would discriminate depending on whether Teleri was being thoughtful, sarcastic, or what have you, it would not change it's response regardless, until at least it gets to know you better and opens up more of course. That won't happen overnight though, believe me, you'll be 15th level and that sword will still be as feisty as ever with you. That inherent part of it's nature will never change.

Applebottom lets out a long sigh, perhaps thinking on the fate Naamani would seal for him if he were in her clutches and grumbles, "What is it you wish to know, cleric?"

 

[Dhes]

In the sell Dunstand stands idly in the corner cleaning his fingernails with one of his dagger and looks with inters as the cleric casts his spell over the ex-mayor.
“Tell me if the spell doesn’t work, ill go get some oil and salt, I’ll get him to talk.”

 

[kirinke]

ooc:
i figured as much. Heheh. Teleri's humor is still going to be off-beat and a bit weird, at least for an elf. Like her parents said, she was either a faerie dragon or a gnome in a previous life.......

“Tell me if the spell doesn’t work, ill go get some oil and salt, I’ll get him to talk.”

"No need to resort to such crude methods just yet." Andreas says to Dunstand. "Even if Ayden's magic fails, I have a spell that might help us in making the good Mayor more cooperative..."

 

[kirinke]

"And I am also sure that he is aware of his three fates: Imprisonment, death or being gift-wrapped and delivered to Namaani for her brand of justice. In my opinion, the first two are far, far more preferable." Teleri says wryly.

 

[hippocrachus]

"Come now, my friends, there is no need to mock the incarcerated. He will be punished for his crimes; that is enough," the quiet elf says from the back of the group.

 

[Verbatim]

As he finished the spell, Ayden could not tell if the spell had taken effect or not, but as the halfling seemed willing to talk to them, Ayden took it as a positive sign none the less.

"We would like to know if the threat to Orchard Meadows ended with your capture and the death of your compatriots, or if there are dangers that the town is still not aware of."

Turing to point to the blade on Teleri's hip, Ayden continued his questions.

"I would also like to know the history of that sword, and how it came to be guarded by the naga. How did you acquire it, and was it the treasure of a kingdom you spoke of in your journal?"
