Joe listening carefully, tell Solomon. "Solomon, If you don't want to travel inside the city you could try to access the sewer by the northern cliff. The sewer are dump in the King's river by the northern cliff. Their exit is about right in the middle of the cliff. This access is not far from the temple so you would have a better chance to reach it than trying to enter them from here. You and a few others could enter the sewers from there, I must have two or three spider climb scroll lying around in my study that could be put to good use.Manzanita said:

OOC: The first thing Jasper does in the morning is prepare his new spells. After that he'll go get breakfast and discuss the day with the other characters.
Jasper munches on some toast while he talks with Solomon and anyone else that is around. "Waiting until after the meeting might be a good idea. Especially since the baron already met with Uder. That may mean that he already met with the Almets too. Hmm.. except the contact thought that Uder was the only survivor. Why wouldn't Uder have told people about the Almets? In any case, we shouldn't break into the temple or the boat unless we have a better reason to do so. I still think our main objective should be finding a way to swipe those stones from the counsellor."

"Uder could well say the Almats were not in Prumen at the time of the massacre. This is technically correct, I believe. Yes. I would prefer to delay any actions until after your meeting with the Baron. It could well give us a better idea of what to do. It would also let us all work together as a group, which we haven't done much as yet. If we were to take the sewers, and combat the orcs in the temple, we'd need everyone's help to defeat them."
"Thank you, Joe, for another good idea. Uder is depending upon that temple. If we can get in there, I have little doubt it would disrupt his plans."

OOC feel free to continue the discussion. I will assume that it happened before the visit.
As you are discussing around the kitchen table eating Jasper's aunt copious breakfast, Uncle Joe appears. His hair still wet from his showers and impecably dress. "Let's get ready, the Baron is waiting for us. Jasper, Oculus I told the Baron you had something important to discuss with him. Jasper, the only problem is that he knows you left with Captain Farimond, it took everything to convince him for you to join them. Now with what we learned yesterday. I don't know if it's still a good thing to send you there. What if he works closely with Uder, that will blow your cover.
On the other hand if he doesn't we might get some indirect help? I really don't know, I am getting too old for this.

Xavier continue his way towards the citadel. He is stoped at the gate of the banking sector but is quickly allowed access. A men wearing such fine cloth and armor usually hasn't any problem getting in that part of the town. He continue towards the castle. The streets inside this section are extremely clean, large houses, business headquarters and banks on both sides of the street. Xavier doesn't have time to investigate the area further and heads front. He notices that the area is heavily patrolled by city guard. Everything here seems very peacefull.
Xavier approaches the Baron citadel. Xavier can see that the castle is very well maintained, he almost can't see any moss or broken part. On his right he sees a few worker actually repairing a portion of the external wall. Xavier can see the main dungeon of the castle. From there a vigil can see the entire city and far beyond.
The two guards at the entrance don't look like the average town guards. Xavier can notice (knowledge nobility roll 9+7 DC 10) badges from various Mergovian combat units on their uniform. Their physical presence is also intimidating. Xavier easily sees years of combat experience behind the two soldiers belt.
As he approaches, they recognise Xavier's station. "Welcome Sir Roces, you are expected. If you don't mind waiting a few minutes we will get the captain." Xavier is allowed inside and offer a confortable chair where he can seat and wait. A few minutes later a large bald dwarf wearing the Mergovian army uniform enters the room. Xavier [Knowledge nobility +7 DC 5] recognises the men ranks on his uniform.
The dwarf talking with a strong accent of the eastern part of the country says
"Good Morning Sir Roces, I will escort you to Jt'trialaila your hostess. If you please follow me."
Xavier follow the dwarf through a long corridor. The corridor is richly decorated to impress visitor. The dwarf stops in front of a door and knock announcing your arrival. A soft voice answers back and Xavier is allowed in.
A beautifull young (in the low one hundred)tall elven women is standing in the richly decorated room. The room contains a very large and confortable oak bed and many furnitures made of massive wood. In the center of the room Xavier can see a large stone fireplace all richely carved.
The elven women is also very well dress and in her way of addressing you and acting seems very aware of Mergovian etiquette.
"Sir Roces, my name is Jt'trialaila I am here to make sure that your stay will be a pleasant one. I will leave you for now, this will be your room, put yourself at ease, I will be back in an hour. Then smiling in a very formal manners she leaves the room silently.

Xavier Roces, human male sevant of Heironeous.
The number of guards around town, the immaculate castle, the sumptious rooms; its fairly obvious that the Baron is an expensive man to keep.
If the Captain seems ameniable, Xavier asks him about life in the baron's service and Mergovie in general as they work their way through the castle. Xavier is carefull to keep his questions within the bounds of acceptable curiosity. The last thing he wants is the Baron to get the idea that he is here to suss out the castles defenses and the Baron's strength. But as a warrior, he cannot help but be impressed with the Merigovie soldiers. They seem well organised, disciplined and capable.
Xavier breathes a silent sigh of relief when Jt'trialaila tells him that this is *his* room. For a moment he feared that he had found himself in another elvan woman's bedroom. He has to work hard to stop himself from chuckling at his own foolishness.
Xavier responds to her formality in kind, observing all the pleasantries of court society. Before Jt'trialaila leaves, Xavier asks if she could have someone bring a clothes brush. He gestures at the mud on his boots in explaination. If she asks him about it, he makes as little of it as possible without seeming evasive.
Once she has left, he will take some time to check his armour and weapons before having a look around the room.

"Well, he already knows we're alive, so I don't think our cover can get more blown. I do think it might be best if Oculus stayed here to ensure that the counsellor or one of his associates doesn't recognize him. But our main reason for visiting was to warn him about the goblins, and apparently he already knows. The only way I can think of him helping us now is just giving more info about Farimond and what the government knows." Jasper lets out a long sigh. "I'm not sure. There's too much that I don't know."

"There is also Mr Almat and his daughter, Solomon seems to care about their faith. I guess, you should go but you should be prepared. Uncle Joe's get out a scroll from a scroll case hidden under his cloths. "take this Jasper, I wrote a Dimension door a few year back and never had the chance to use it. In the room of the throne you will see a large window in the back. This magically reinforced window has a view on the city. Concentrate on a point slightly behind the external wall while casting the spell, that should be enough to get you out.
Joe puts the scroll in Jasper hands and smiles proudly at him. "I am proud to see that you will need it more than I do"

"Jasper, you're probably right, as always," Oculus smiles. "Go without me. I wonder how he fits in to all this."
