[WoT Adventure] Turn 4

[Ashrem Bayle]

At the mention of the gold, Ashrem began looking about for swollen purses. He turned to address the others. "Look around for that coin. Consider it payment for our troubles." He said with a grimace, then looked at the still held thug. "Be thankful your coin is all we take." He glanced at Lord Tomas then back at the thug. "Your life is in the hands of Lord Tomas here. You had better thank the Light it's not in mine."

[OOC: Spot? Search? Do I see I catch Pedron's palming of the loot?]

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Jain Hadlin

Once he got back Jain stayed quite listening to everyone, absorbing the information.

"I would see that this beggar is much more than he appears, when he ran, I was on him. Some how he managed to out run me and Pedron both, and disappear into the crowd. Now Lila Sedai can not use the power to track him, and all that coin he put down to have us robbed." Jain shakes his head slowly and rubs his chin for a moment.

I think there maybe a LOT to more to this beggar than meets the eye.

"While i normally wouldn't advacate dodging the guard, I think in this case, and in light of what happened with the trollocs, we might be best served by leaving the scene. If all of you insist on involving the guard, though i would suggest we leave it to Tomas and let him put a good spin on the incident."

After that Jain snaps out of his revere and loooks at everyone.

"Is everyone alright, Shalimar? Does anyone have wounds that need attention?"

 

[Shalimar Shiawase]

Her face pale and shallow, She gives Ashrem a slightly surprised and dissapointed look.

"Are we common thieves now Ashrem? I don't intend to be. The money, now." She says holding out a shaky hand.


"I want to determine whether I can learn anything from it, not steal it. I dare say these men would not have done this except for that, and if we leave them with nothing, they are likely to fall back to that."

Besides, I was the one who saved their fool lives. They would probably spend the money foolishly anyway, they are men.

"We can do all of this back at the Inn though."

She whispers to Yuri "Yuri... can you help me get back to the inn? I don't know..." She stops not wanting to finish the sentance.

OOC: If we were at the Inn, or somewhere not waiting for the Gaurds or something from Dave we could do some roleplay while Daves away, that will keep things going without a real big break. A big banquet or somesuch. Whatcha think?

Yuri Morotakai

"I think I can manage, as long as you stick with this shoulder."

Yuri helps Shalimar up.

"Let's go, we could all use a break."

 

[Shalimar Shiawase]

Liftng her head from his shoulder, "I am sorry Yuri, I was being thoughtless, let me heal you."

blinking through the exhaustion trying to keep her from the Source, she opens up to it. The lily was hard to form, and it went from being blury to clear fast enough to almost make her lose it all together. The light of Saidar flows into her again easing the need for rest. She feels more alive, tired, but more alive.

The weave forms even more slowly then the last wavering, for a moment, then snaping into place. The healing weave as always is shocking enough to make the paatient shiver in shock. [heal 0, 1 hp]

Releasing saidar in a rush she falls at his feet. "That was undignified" she observed making her way to her knees, and stopping their looking up at him.

"I will treat it more fully when we return to the Inn, and my healers bag there. It wont be as immediate, but it might serve as a reminder to not get hit, or wear armor, take your pick." she says with a hint of teasing in her voice. She finishes the last with an effort of will to stand up, and leans on him again, gesturing him to the door.

 

[Tay-Dor]

Foolish Northeners just plan to leave these criminals here? To accost others at some later date? Barbarians. Fustrated and a little annoyed at how little reguard the others have for the Law and the common good of society. "Before the rest of you retire to the Inn, would one of you help me tie up these men so I might take them to the Queen's Guard." Never mind that alone, they might over-power me. But at least I will die trying to see justice done. Lord Tomas looks around for some rope...

 

[dscrank]

Pedron "helps"

[OOC: I guess most of this won't be resolved until Dave gets back, if then.]

"I'll help," Pedron says, getting started before anyone can say anything. He searches the building, both this story and the next, for, well, mostly he's looking for valuables, but also rope. If he finds any coins, jewelery, documents which may be relevant to this mess, or interesting and useful weapons (specifically: arrows, exotic weapons, saps, or short swords), Pedron will take as much as he can comfortably carry without being too obvious (thus no more than two weapons, not including arrows). Once he's back, assuming he found rope, he'll help Tomas tie up the thugs, searching them for the same things.

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Jain Hadlin, just tryin ta help.

"Yuri, you are injured, do you want me to aid Shalimar. Even with healing you shouldn't agravate the wound, besides i know full well that healing can take it's toll not only on the healer, but the person healed as well."

Jain walks over to Shalimar and Yuri as he says this, and unless either of them objects he'll help Shalimar back to the inn.

I really wish she wouldn't exert herself so much, it leaves her horribaly vulnerable. I wonder why Lila Sedai has no warder?

 

[Ashrem Bayle]

Her face pale and shallow, She gives Ashrem a slightly surprised and dissapointed look.

"Are we common thieves now Ashrem? I don't intend to be. The money, now." She says holding out a shaky hand.


"I want to determine whether I can learn anything from it, not steal it. I dare say these men would not have done this except for that, and if we leave them with nothing, they are likely to fall back to that."

Ashrem, still angry, looked at Shalimar. "No....m'lady. We are not thieves. I consider this payment for our troubles." he looked at her hand, and with a cold grin, pocketed the coin. "You can leave the rest if you want, I for one, do not believe they deserve it."

Light! Maybe if Jain tried to kill her, she'd be a bit nicer to him. It seemed to work for our ambushers. She's been more respectful to them than to some of us.

He looked at Lord Tomas. "I agree. It is senseless to leave them here unpunished. They would just do it again." He spared a piercing look at the man still tied with Air. "Though I would hope that today they learned a lesson. I have no mercy for their sort." He turned back to Lord Tomas. "Unfortunatly this land seems to coddle even its criminals. If we aren't going to finish this, I suggest we call the guard."

He gave a slight shake as a chill came over him. He rubbed his arms and touched his head. Bloody fever coming back. Will I never be over this?

"My regrets that I cannot accompany you to the guardsmen. I have some things that need tending to." With that he headed for the door.

No need for them to know I'm sick. I'll just go back to the inn and rest a while.

"Thank you Jain, but it's really nothing. You can look at when we're back at the inn."
