[QUOTE="Telsar, post: 1596135, member: 18837"] After giving Boon the required 250 gp, Aligor receives two maps, one a detailed terrain map, showing a desert area with an symbol marked ‘ruins’ some 5 days travel to the north of the city. The second map Boon says was drawn by the guy who sold him the urgrosh, and it shows some details of the ruins themselves, with a stone wall surrounding the place, with places marked showing where the wall has crumbled enough to allow entry. Also on this rough map is a campsite, within the walls, where the urgrosh was apparently found. All the interior of the ruins are not depicted, apparently not explored before the mappers decided to leave. [All of the previous assumes Aligor paid the money. Didn’t actually see you say that anywhere. :) If so, mark it off your money] Aligor makes his way to the Hearthgate as dawn breaks, and this building has obviously seen better days. It’s sign is fading, and the paint on the exterior is weathered and cracking in places. There’s an old man sitting in a swing outside the place, whittling on a piece of wood. No one else can be seen, and even this man doesn’t look much like a look-out. [Note- it should have taken a bit of time to go to Boon’s and then here. I’d like to wait till we know if Sunedilar and Alev are headed here before I continue, since if they head straight there, they wouldn’t get to the Inn any later than this.] Also as the sun is rising, Alicia finishes with her newest conquest. She’s not really used to them being tied like that, so it was a novel experience. But alas, carriage drivers aren’t very strong, so his vertebrae broke far too soon.

[DM just curious if you do anything with them] Three blocks down the street, they approach a large building that is so much damaged by fire in the past that it looks painted black.
