The Fatman’s name is Jarrol Esbar. He sends Josh off on the pony and finds rooms for all of you. The rooms are scattered around town.
The town is small, Lily wanders to one end and back quickly, the town has only a few shops, people seem to sell products out of their homes, small gardens are everywhere, along with a few livestock. Most of the people seem very busy.
You stop to watch 2 men building a house. After a while one turns to look at you ”Hey Halfling are you part of he Coplin Clan? That pot I bought has three leaks already, and the blasted goat has quit giving milk.”
A few hours later Josh returns and Jarrol finds you again. “I’m afraid my good sirs that the Baron won’t be joining us until tomorrow. He is detained by important busines im sure."
Cait's guards look at each other. "We would be happy to stay with you" That night they will go over a few last minute pointers on combat, and suggestions for traveling with men. OOC Persuasion check 16+5=21
The towns people are working during the day, but with evening the Tavern/Seed-store fills up.
If you stay to socialize: [sblock]
The people are talkative and curious about you and other lands, Among the many questions: “Do you have tax farmers in you land? Are paladin mounts reincarnated from the souls of dead paladins? How long has your family been in the service of your lord? Where are you going? Where are you from?” and further questions/complaints to Lily about the Coplin clan. One of the locals greets Keef with a nod and a quiet “Cousin.” but then doesn’t talk to him for the rest of the night.
Fat Jarrol is the owner, he serves drinks, and tells any who ask about Xaros Anuvien and his servants, and the bandits in the lock-up. [/sblock]
