Kerin stares at Keef for a long moment then walks away. he comes back dragging the corpse of Dead-eye and tosses the body in front of Keef.
"This is the man you followed. This is what his actions got him. My horse did this to him. You saw as well what my lance did to another of your companions. I believe mercy is in order here. But forgiveness without atonement is hollow. So Farmer Keef I will offer you this choice, you may either be taken back to the constables or you may accompany and serve us. We are on a journey. You will accompany us on that journey and we we have completed it you will allowed to go you way. You will at that time be paid the rate of 3 silver coins per day you have served. I am sure that if you have served well, you might even be offered a position in a house of good reputation based upon our recommendation. But I warn you Keef, I will forgive, once. If you accept this and betray us my wrath shall be very great and they will be lucky to find an ash or cinder left of you when the firey justice of Pelor is done with you. Now Choose. And should you choose to come with us, you must swear by the shining face of Pelor above to attend to us loyally and honorably." says Kerin

Keef flinches at the body, but as Kerin continues his eyes light up
“Now that sounds like a deal! I just need the chance to prove myself. I can take care of animals, do some hunting and trapping if necessary, hopefully I could get some tips on fighting or shooting or what haveya. I have no problems swearing by Pelor, as the other gods have done little for me. and if under Pelor I prosper, then by Pelor I will serve with honor and loyalty. I doubt if anyone would come looking for my ashes if I fail to live up to that oath.
The last place I saw one-eye was back at our camp, it’s a couple hundred yards that way (gestures at the forest that the men emerged from) about three days ago. But um what about the other guys? I can’t vouch for their honesty but I don’t like leaving them with the dead, what if some of them come back as ghouls or something?“
Rayburn: when Kerin drags the archers body over you find yourself noting the high quality of his studded leather armor, while the battleaxe at his belt is quite ordinary.
Ooc:
Kerin persuasion 16+8skill+3 rp bonus = 27
Xaros (rolls 3, no new info)
Lily kn religion 7+6=13 you don’t think undead are likely.
Rayburn: casual appraise 19+4-5=18 (masterwork armor)

Rayburn (v2)
Rayburn suddenly stands up, walks over to Dead Eye's body, and takes a closer look at his armor. He studies it for a moment and then says, "I do hate to interrupt this lovely display of forgiveness, but I just noticed that this armor is a little higher quality than I thought before. Does anyone perchance have a detect magic handy?"

The halfling priestess moves next to Kerin and whispers, "I'm all for taking Keef here with us for his atonement, but what about the others? We might wake up with our throats cut..."
After the interrogation is over, Lily suggests the group find the bandit camp (it's only a few hundred yards away after all), and look for clues as to the identity of this One-eye. "It doesn't bode well that our adventure has just started, yet we already have caught the attention of a one-eyed marauder."
ooc: nice post Fenris.
Lily speaks to the prisoner softly, glad to see he has not been completely corrupted by thievery and greed. "The men who still cling to life will heal with time. As for those who fell in battle... our troupe has no practitioners of the dark magics or necromancy, so the souls of the fallen will find their place in the afterlife. And you Keef... you may find this sad day a turning point in your life. Honorable service is a good start back onto the path of prosperity and family."Keef said:

Lily had indeed prepared two castings of Detect Magic this morning. She speaks a minor invocation while standing next to Dead-eye's corpse, watching his armor intently.
ooc: The two castings of cure minor wounds that Lily used would have been swapped for Light and Read Magic first, since I actually consider Detect Magic somewhat useful (as opposed the the others which I almost never use). After this casting, she has one Detect Magic and her domain spell Sanctuary remaining.

Rayburn looks up at Kerin, surprised. "What was that? So the mercy of Pelor extends only to those who awaken swiftly after a beating? I hadn't realized."
