[QUOTE="Carlo-One, post: 7832168, member: 7015827"] Everyone agreed to head to the Black Eye for a drink, where they overheard several inebriated patrons discussing a Cormyrian gladiator named "Josurr Mountbatten" who had entered the next round of fights at the Quivering Thumb on Uktar 20. Josurr was referred to as a rogue Purple Dragon and some speculation was made regarding his possible involvement in the Sembian murders, as well as his odds of surviving in the arena against the "snow cat." [I](At least one of the adventurers’ heretofore private activities will soon come to light. –R)[/I] After the drunken fight fans departed, conversation among the companions turned to comparing Westgate and Waterdeep as cities, as well as the information shared by Gondeth. Aerikoth declared he had little desire to pursue the leads uncovered from Jamorin's tome, which he viewed as meaningless, while the others were interested in seeing what might be uncovered. [I](This seems somewhat unusual for the wizard, does he not normally thirst for knowledge? –C)[/I] After the last ales were finished, the group walked back to the Gatereach guest house, Jokull admiring the clear night sky, which for once was free of rain. On entering their place, Rahnee, Brok-Tul and Marik nervously queried each other about the open meeting chamber door, until they decided it had simply been left ajar by themselves earlier. The companions then retired for the night. Janatha was pleasantly surprised the next morning on Uktar 19, arriving as usual with the breakfast tray, when Brok-Tul presented her with a perfume bottle from Chalaratha's as a token of the group's appreciation. Pleased and excited, she wished the group a good day, rushing out to try her new fragrance. After Rahnee's bellowing summons to Aerikoth was met with silence, Brok-Tul went upstairs and knocked on Aerikoth's door. Aerikoth responded with his usual disinterest and said he would be down shortly. When all were gathered around the breakfast table, Brok-Tul half-jokingly asked Aerikoth to chill his ale for him with a spell, which Aerikoth reacted to coldly. [I](This passage is evidence that the anonymous original chronicler, who appears to be scrupulously factual and neutral, does - even if very rarely - have a sense of humor. --R)[/I] Discussion turned to exploring the Seven Hills, which everyone, for various reasons, expressed interest in - except for the wizard. Aerikoth could not be convinced to accompany them, although he indicated he would go looking for them to discover their fate if they failed to return by day's end.
