[Guy] I am back at the keyboard.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((go lick a toed))

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((and yes i spelled it that way on purpose))

[Master] was thinking that Kaz might not want us to know that Guy likes his toes licked

[Kaz] I'll chop off your big toed and stuff it up a nostril.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((brb))

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((and back))

[Master] good

[Master] and so your bone?

[Lisa] do we have bones?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((oh it was about the foriso the lecher thief comment lol))

[Master] Ok, I do want to have Lisa roll her Sea Scroll

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((kaz i plan on tickling later for it and marco maybe ill send him a bunch of bananas lol))

[Lisa] they dice roller is no longer on top of screen

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((and there were 2 scroll cases still to check?))

[Kaz] yes Guy

[Master] you can always just type it Lisa

[Master] or use the dice panel

[Lisa] I forget and hate typing

[Master] smiles

[Lisa] and hate Klooge for taking away stuff they have no business touching

[Lisa] no coin flipping

[Lisa] no dice panel

[Lisa] why would they do that when I am clearly having a bad day?

[Lisa] phone is on toolbar but grayed out and disabled

[Master] because he just has no clue

[Lisa] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Tails

[Master] Ok, how did you do that?

[Lisa] It is under plug-ins

[Master] and I do not see how to enable the phone at first glance

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Tails

[Master] None available.

[Master] None available.

[Lisa] the dice roller pane has no pics of dice to choose from in the window anymore

[Master] and that is something that is broken and will need a bug report

[Master] two things now at least

[Lisa] Roll #1: (d2) [1d2=1] 1

[Lisa] Roll #1: (d2) [1d2=2] 2, Roll #2: (d2) [1d2=2] 2, Roll #3: (d2) [1d2=1] 1, Roll #4: (d2) [1d2=1] 1

[Lisa] Roll #1: (d2+4) [1d2=2] 6

[Lisa] Roll #1: (d2) [1d2=1] 1

[Master] Ok, so first off Lisa we roll a d8 for total levels for the spells on the scroll

[Lisa] (1d8) [1d8=8] 8

[Master] nice

[Master] now a d6 for the level of the first spell

[Lisa] (1d6) [1d6=4] 4

[Master] ok d5 for the next

[Lisa] (1d5) [1d5=1] 1

[Master] the spell Ice Storm

[Master] 4th level mage spell

[Master] so now we roll a d4 for the next spell on the scroll

[Lisa] why does karma want us in Antarctica?

[Lisa] (1d4) [1d4=3] 3

[Lisa] keep getting all this freezing stuff

[Master] Ok, so now a d3

[Lisa] (1d3) [1d3=1] 1

[Master] oooo new spell Depth Warning

[Master] and finally a d5

[Lisa] (1d5) [1d5=2] 2

[Master] Depth Warning is a 3rd level spell

[Master] and another new spell 1st level Float

[Lisa] can cast on Foriso so he won't drown?

[Master] grins,

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((lol))

[Master] you want to enter those on the site where? party pack? library?

[Lisa] he is our resident non swimmer :)

[Master] I will let you and Kaz work out the details on that

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((im not the only non swimmer))

[Master] I would think that Party Pack is the first place

[Master] then can move it from there

[Lisa] (Scarlet too?)

[Kaz] I've got a detail page

[Master] ok

[Kaz] I'm updating there

[Kaz] And Bob, you said it was six sea spells.

[Master] and Marco is downloading the update will be in

[Master] then she got lucky and got 2 extra levels

[Master] grins

[Master] thought it was 8

[Kaz] Six spells does not equal three spells

[Lisa] lol

[Master] levels

[Kaz] Ahh. That wasn't what you said. *bop*

[Kaz] Guy explained

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] (d6) [1d6=2] 2

[Lisa] I was thinking the same thing you were Kaz

[Master] sorry I must have mis-spoken, traditional Mage and Priest scrolls do come in "a scroll of 6 spells"

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Foriso Fairhand modified: Combat - Max Hit Points:: CHANGED: 26 (23). Melee THAC0: (THAC0) : CHANGED: 17 (18). Class Levels - Character Level: (L) : CHANGED: 7 (6). Thief: (RGL) : CHANGED: 7 (6).

[Master] but the ones from AL-Qadim ane Kara Tur are by level

[Master] because there are so many fewer spells

[Kaz] no worries

[Master] there are only 5 total 1st level Sea spells

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] (forgot about updating foriso))

[Master] and that is a good point Guy

[Master] if Foriso and Bran are both updated in Klooge now we need to take that note off the training page

[Master] OK

[Master] there are two trapped scroll cases

[Master] a pewter candle stick

[Master] those are Foriso things

[Kaz] Lisa, did you make all the changes to Branwyn's page?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((and 1 gem to appraise from a while ago))

[Master] will go and check

[Lisa] in Klooge? yes

BiBo!!! has joined the game on Fri Mar 18 20:09:09 EDT 2011

BiBo!!! is receiving the map Farmhouse...

[Kaz] Heya Marco!

BiBo!!! has received the map Farmhouse.

[Lisa] Hi Marco!

[BiBo!!!] howdy yall

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((marco be expecting a bunch of bananas to raise your radiation levels MUHAHAHAHAHA))

[BiBo!!!] seems rolling blackouts dont apply to weekends and holidays. ahhh the ever so considerate japanese

[BiBo!!!] its saturday for me now in case you are wondering

[Kaz] lol

[Master] chuckles

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to GM only)] Foriso Fairhand: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=57] 57 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 60!!

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to GM only)] Foriso Fairhand: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=87] 87 - ROLL FAILED against 60!!

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to GM only)] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=4] 4 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to GM only)] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=9] 9 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[Master] Ok, so you have a Spinel, green worth 500 GP, a pewter candle stick worth 460 gp, Foriso removed the trap from one of the scroll cases a priest scroll for a spell called Searing Song 4th level, ........

[Master] and a save versus poison please

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] no need

[Master] oh?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] cloak protects from poison

[Master] ahhhh

[BiBo!!!] ah, but not THIS poison

[BiBo!!!] :-P

[BiBo!!!] this is special anti magic cloak poison

[BiBo!!!] of DOOOM

[Master] so a POOOF and a scroll tumbles out of the case in a pile of black dust

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((marco you will be the new banana boy))

[Master] and it is a Scroll of Ballant's

[BiBo!!!] ballants?

[Master] you have never heard of it before, no clue what it is about unless you read it

[BiBo!!!] thats not a mispelling of balance?

[Master] nope

[Master] and brb

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[BiBo!!!] who the heck is ballant and why isnt it called ballant's scroll or the scroll of ballant? madness!

[Kaz] Hey Bob, when you get back, how about the scroll cases? Just average whatever?

[Lisa] can we tell is it is a priest scroll or a mage scroll?

[BiBo!!!] bobs not here, so we can tell whatever we want! mwuahahaha!

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((i think we will have to read ity to find out and since only scarlett is expendable she can read it lol))

[BiBo!!!] scarlett already had her soul sucked out

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[BiBo!!!] its someone elses turn

[Master] someone has to read it beyond the name to find out more

[Kaz] Marco makes a good point

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((ill read it then))

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) takes the scroll out and starts to read it

[Master] thieves can not use scrolls so it is gibberish

[BiBo!!!] at least not at this level

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((only for 3 more levels))

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((so see its all on scarlett lol))

[Lisa] (I'll read it unless Miranda has a burning desire)

[BiBo!!!] scarlett is still in bed recovering from soul removal

[Kaz] Doesn't matter. Miranda can read it if Bran doesn't want to

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((coward lol))

[Lisa] (or we can wait until the middle of combat... stop everything and read it)

[Master] lol

[BiBo!!!] lol

[Lisa] (then little pink flowers will appear everywhere)

[Kaz] LOL

[Kaz] That would be hilarious.

[Master] Ok, so Branwyn checks it?

[Kaz] Okay, Miranda will read it

[Lisa] (well, would suck if it was good for combat and we read it in the kitchen)

[Master] no not that sort of reading

[Lisa] (I don't care who does)

[Master] not casting it

[Master] but reading it

[BiBo!!!] knowing bob, they would be carniverous pink flowers that only eat the person who reads the scroll and their friends

[Kaz] probably

[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.

[Lisa] lol

[Master] So Miranda attempts to read it and sees that it is a scroll of mage spells, but is unable to tell what they are

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((way to go marco you gave him an idea))

[Miranda (Kaz)] Might be better if you check this out, Branwyn.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Sure. I'll take a look

Branwyn (Lisa) takes scroll and begins to read

[Master] Branwyn reads and soon figures out that it was a title like ownership not the name of a scroll

[Master] as in This is a Scroll of Ballant's please return if found

[BiBo!!!] who soever reads this scroll becomes the property of ballant

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (like a deed?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (wonderful)

[Master] the quick synopsis at the top gives Branwyn enough information to know he was a mage from somewhere in Terragaurd who specialized in Seige Warfare

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Catapults!!!)

[Master] and that this is a set of instructions on siege warfare

[Master] grins, yes

[BiBo!!!] why isnt it the scroll of ballant? or ballant's scroll? who uses BOTH of and 's for ownership?

[Master] but it also has two new unique spells in it

[Master] a 5th level called Ballant's Stonestrength

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but there is a note to return the scroll?)

[BiBo!!!] that ballant must be a real prick

[Master] which affects stone

[Master] and Ballant's Stonesplit

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (never would have guessed)

[Master] which cleaves a stone in two

[Kaz] don't you mean 'in twain'?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (what levels?)

[Master] Ballant's Stoneplit is a 6th level spell

[BiBo!!!] is it any particularly more useful than say... stoneshape? which is a lower level and more versitile seeming spell?

[Master] stone shape is more of a priest thing

[BiBo!!!] isnt it both? I thought it was both

[Master] and these two seem to be targeted at Seige warfare rather than being general types of spells

[Master] you can look at the details later when you learn the spells

[Kaz] This Ballant was obviously up to No Good (tm)

[BiBo!!!] lol.... for a 6th level spell? yeah that will be soon

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (why is he a bad guy?)

[BiBo!!!] we wont even remember we have the scroll by then

[Master] no, not that way Kaz, seems to be more of a How to Primer for both sides

[BiBo!!!] its a treatise on war magic

[Kaz] Not saying he's a bad guy. Just that he was up to No Good (tm)

[Kaz] Mainly because I wanted to put something in caps and trademark it.

[Master] chuckles

[BiBo!!!] excellent

[Branwyn (Lisa)] so? people go to war. mages are supposed to sit out cuz spells aren't nice?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol to kaz

[BiBo!!!] no, they are supposed to sit out because we have more important things to bother with than the petty battles of kingdoms :D

[Master] Marco goign to send you a new map

[Master] so you see what the others saw earlier

[BiBo!!!] NOOOOOOO!!!!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (aha... okay)

[BiBo!!!] ::dies under the weight of klooge::

[Master] see not that bad

[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.

[Master] and you can grab the farmhouse back when ever you want

[Master] and so

[Master] what else do you want to accomplish? my list shows, talk with Mosskins, at Keep, then travel to Redfern Lake to drop off dress

[BiBo!!!] grab the farm house? you mean the map?

[Master] nods

[Master] did you like that Loosend map?

[BiBo!!!] its pretty

[BiBo!!!] though scarlett is only concerned with retrieving her waffle maker during this down time

[Master] chuckles which is at Redfern Lake

[Master] Everyone is tagging along with the group though to travel from there to Loosend and do trainings, then traveling to "the next place" when that si done

[Master] the final question really is what are you taking on this trip with you, and how are you carrying it

[Master] what stays at home, what comes with etc

[Kaz] Well, would help to have a vague idea how much training will cost. In any case, i believe I said something last week about sewing some of the gems into our clothing hems

[Master] yes to teh sewing of gems, just need to pick which ones

[Guy] thought foriso was gonna stay and train with his mentor

[Master] and you know general costs of training is 700 gp for 7 weeks of training

[Kaz] I thought he was, too, but Bob made a good point that there are thieves in Loosend.

[Master] plus Foriso has other things to train for, he could always ask his mentor for a recomendation on who to talk to in Loosend

[Guy] that would work maybe lol

[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] I want everyone to get training as they wish

[Kaz] so, generally speaking, we have four known things for training. So, at a minimum estimate, 2800 gp for training.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (would Foriso want to train with anyone else?)

[Master] maybe not in thief levels but in other things he could easily need someone else

[Guy] switching theif mentors wouldnt be a good idea

[Guy] besides foriso likes his mentor to much to want to train with somebody else lol

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry - was just reading above. wasn't sire if he'd want to hook up with a strange thief in loosend if he had a perfectly crazy mentor he knows at home)

[Kaz] He can come with, spend the 7 weeks or so in Loosend, train in Observation, and then when we go home he can train his thief levels.

[Guy] all thieves are crazy in some way thats why the became thieves

[BiBo!!!] or poor

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Branwyn just thinks yours is especially crazy)

[BiBo!!!] most thieves become thieves because its the easiest job available to them I would think

[BiBo!!!] no real job interview, just go ahead and take something

[Kaz] I hate job interviews. Maybe I should become a thief!

[Guy] oh he is crazy thats why foriso likes him lol

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL. I don't think it's easy - all that sneaking around, climbing walls, watching traps blow up in your face, always have to be on guard

[BiBo!!!] well, thats part of the course for all adventurers :)

[Guy] thats why thieves are crazy

[Master] smiles

[Master] so heading off to the Estate?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] sure

[Guy] yup

[Master] and is scarlet staying home or being healed so she can come?

[BiBo!!!] well, everyone is gonna be down 7 weeks, so she is recovering nice and comfy, then picking up a waffle maker and meeting up in looseend to sit around and wait for people to be done training I guess

[Master] travelign to Loosend is not a simple safe thing

[Master] is why you are going in a group

[Master] and this is the meeting with the Lord of the Estate

[Master] Foriso and Scarlet are the two that are banged up, obviously Scarlet the worst

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (foriso will be fine after some sleep - he's good)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (did you give him any healing from overnight if you changed the day on us?)

[Master] no you are right I missed that

[Master] Foriso Fairhand's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 26 (3) - Unharmed

[Master] so only Scarlett

[Master] now that she has slept a night is not walking wounded anymore and can accept more healing

[Kaz] Sorry, I was picking out stuff from the gems in the Home Base to sell

Kaz is receiving the map Base Map...

Kaz has received the map Base Map.

Lisa is receiving the map Base Map...

[Kaz] Scarlet is not on the same map.

Lisa has received the map Base Map.

[Master] are you healing her? I will move her

[Master] that is why I was asking

[Kaz] Yes

[Kaz] Miranda targets Scarlet. Distance: 1'05"

[Kaz] Miranda casts a spell against Scarlet: Cure Moderate Wounds: You're healed (-1d10-1) [1d10=6] -7 points.

[Master] Scarlet's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 8 (7) - Moderately Wounded

[Kaz] and I'll do an Orison for the remaining 5 hp

[Master] Captain Tikmok: No adjustments made.

[Master] Scarlet's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 13 (5) - Unharmed

[Kaz] Miranda casts a spell against Scarlet: Orison: I can create minor effects.

[Master] Medoro moved 19'10".

[Medoro (Master)] Welcome good folk

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle moved 7'10".

[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.

[BiBo!!!] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 8'08".

[Scarlet (BiBo!!!)] :: lives again ::

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Medoro, it is good to see you again

[Kaz] Miranda no longer targets Scarlet.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are looking much better than last we saw you

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Hey Medoro good to see you back up and around

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] nods, Welcome Dragonslayers

[Medoro (Master)] smiles, thank you Sir Foriso, it is good to be back to normal

Kristelle (Kaz) nods with a little bow

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) grins at Medoro

[Medoro (Master)] We are still dealing with a bit of unpleasentness but overall things are much improved here

[Kristelle (Kaz)] I'm glad to hear it.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] How is my Lord?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] what unpleasantness is left?

[Medoro (Master)] (remember the Plague started only 12 days ago)

[Medoro (Master)] yo(you have just had a very busy time )

[Master] Time of Day: 07:00 AM. Day 18 See ___ tre, Ze {Mid Summer} 18th, 339 SKR.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((no i didnt know that lol))

[Medoro (Master)] (and it is the 18thn not the 16th, Plague was on the 4th)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((so I'm still all grey and icky... bleah.))

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but Toybin lives to serve you anyway - all is well)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((lol))

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) whispers to Medoro "any word on that coward Yulotte?"

[Medoro (Master)] and Who are your new companions

Medoro (Master) a small shake of his head

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Oh! Your pardon, Medoro. How rude of me.

Kristelle (Kaz) motions to Toybin.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] This is Toybin of Castling, a young knight who has attached himself to us for a while.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] An impetuous, but quite brave, young knight, indeed.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] and a right royal pain in the arse.

Kristelle (Kaz) rolls her eyes.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Bows,

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] At yoru service Sir Medoro.. ?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] And this young lady is Scarlet the Flame. *motions to Scarlet*

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] Welcome to teh Jistille Estates, Master Toybin, enjoy the comforts that Lord Mosskin provides

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] **sputters****

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Lord Mosskin?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Looking at Kristelle franticly

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] and behave here or else you will not leave in one piece.

Kristelle (Kaz) raises an eyebrow.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] What ails you, Toybin?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Lord Mosskins, as in THE Mosskins?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] stands strighter

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Are there other Mosskins?

Kristelle (Kaz) gives a puzzled frown.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] blinks

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Dowager Queen?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Calm yourself, Toybin. Lord Mosskin is a good man.

Kristelle (Kaz) shrugs at Toybin. "On the Jistille Estates?"

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] he is more than a good man,

[Medoro (Master)] Master Toybin,

[Medoro (Master)] we are not at court here

[Medoro (Master)] we are a simple Country Estate

[Medoro (Master)] Lord Mosskin has chosen this as his home and we will not bring him any troubles

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Will a young knight's hero worship bring my Lord troubles, Medoro?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] I knew we should have left him in the stables

Kristelle (Kaz) looks a bit uneasy.

[Medoro (Master)] smiles at Kristelle, as long as he keeps his eyes inside of his head and his mouth properly cautious

Kristelle (Kaz) turns to look at Toybin. "Think you can manage that, Toby?"

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am not dressed right for an audience with... deep breath... Lord Mosskin

Branwyn (Lisa) mutters to herself, "won't matter how he looks since Mossikin is as blind as a bat"

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] looking over at Medoro and back at Kristelle

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] He is

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (cannot type without typos tonight - sorry)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] You look perfectly fine.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I mean

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] this

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] looking around

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] he lives here?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Ok

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] ok

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] sorry

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] sorry

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Medoro, my friend. Will you excuse Toybin and I for a moment, please?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] swallows, I will do what you wish Lady Kristelle

Kristelle (Kaz) grabs Toybin's arm and pulls him to the side, out of earshot.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Calm yourself, young man.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am sorry My Lady

[Kristelle (Kaz)] You have been at court, have you not?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but I was not aware that you were held in such high esteem

[Scarlet (BiBo!!!)] ((hey sorry, something has come up, I gotta get going. g'luck with your training all!))

Kristelle (Kaz) shakes her head.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] that I was serving you and a leige

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((cya marco))

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but Him?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (stay safe - bye!)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] We are not 'serving a liege'. We sometimes contract to work for the Estate.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] you are a very good person My Lady to be so calm and reserved about such company

BiBo!!! has left the game on Fri Mar 18 21:20:59 EDT 2011

Kristelle (Kaz) shakes her head but smiles wryly.

[Master] Missus Mosskin moved 19'10".

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] Hello there

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Lord Mosskin was my father's mentor. I was more thrilled than you to have been meeting him.

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] How are you this morning, it is good to see you all, oh I see Miss Imari is not with you, there is nothing wrong with her I do hope?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] no shes off praying I thinkl

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Toybin, he is a good man, but he is just a man. I do not think he would deal well with hero worship. Just be respectful and don't gush.

Kristelle (Kaz) pats Toybin's arm and turns back. "Greetings, Missus!"

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] EEEEP

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] blushes, and Bows

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Hello My Lady

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) walks over and slaps Toybin on the back of the head

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] TOYBIN!!!!!

[Master] Missus Mosskin moved 15'00".

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] runs over to him and gives him a HUG

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] then stops and straigtens up

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) gets a wicked smirk on his face

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] It is so good to see you again, smiles

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] well well well

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] My Lady

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am very sorry I was not aware you were here and not at Court anymore

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] or I would have brought you something appropriate

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] oh never worry my gallent knight

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] we are making this little place into something worth noticing

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] smiles at him

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] and perhaps even worthy of a knight

Medoro (Master) coughs

[Medoro (Master)] I am very glad that so many people are able to enjoy coming together here

[Medoro (Master)] but we really should move into the hall

[Medoro (Master)] I will be able to fetch the Lord for you in a moment

[Medoro (Master)] Captain Tikmok, please help our guests

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) grins at Medoro "I quite agree Master Medoro"

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Thank you, Medoro.

[Medoro (Master)] I will help the Missus with her father

[Master] Missus Mosskin moved 24'02".

[Master] Medoro moved 17'03".

[Master] Captain Tikmok moved 7'02".

Kristelle (Kaz) follows the Captain.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle moved 4'10".

Captain Tikmok (Master) frowns a bit at Toybin

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Miranda moved 14'08".

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] Who are you... Sir?

Guy is receiving the map Base Map...

Guy has received the map Base Map.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] turns to Foriso, and I must thank you and Mistress Branwyn here for your notice during our recent problems

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] your assistance allowed us to keep the keep safe

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we only did what was right

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] (you do realize who this is?)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((it's the guy that wouldn't leave his post))

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] (yes)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((and, personally, I'm thrilled that he's Captain now.))

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] besides you were the one that did the most i just helped

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are the sentry we spoke with? I hardly recognized you. You look quite well.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] thank you Lady Branwyn

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((as well as someone with grey skin can look, anyway))

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And congratulations on your promotion.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Indeed, you have truly earned it.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] I owe it to you and your group, you helped tremedously

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he doesn't look like death warmed over any more - it's an improvement!)

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] How many guards do you have now and should we try to find you some more

[Kristelle (Kaz)] I'm sorry for the loss of so many of your comrades.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] It would be nice to have more, I have managed to recruit 4 so far

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] nods, and is still for a bit

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] but I want to know,

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] looking directly at Toybin

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] Just how do you know Missus Mosskin

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] and why are you here now?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes Toybin, do tell

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] well the second is easy, I am here because I am bound to Lady Kristelle

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am sworn to defend her

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] as to my .... companionship with Lady Mosskin

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] we were both at court as youngsters

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] she was kind to me,

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I helped her in a minor way

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] it was only a chance meeting

[Branwyn (Lisa)] She seems quite grateful

Kristelle (Kaz) murmurs in Branwyn's ear, "Translation: he saved her life or her honour."

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] smiles a bit, I am simply glad she remembered me

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] she had many vieing for her eye

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But you bested them all?

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] oh no

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am not worthy of that honor

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am a simple Knight

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do think you underestimate yourself. I do not think any would forget you after they had met and spoken with you

Kristelle (Kaz) looks amused, but says nothing.

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) whispers to Tikmok "Ill agree to the simple part"

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] bows, I thank you for your kind words Miss Branwyn, you are most gracious for a w... for a magic user

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] So

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Toby, do I have to buy you a shovel of your very own?

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] we should all be getting into the main hall

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] please tell me anything I shoudl know of the areas out on the Estates

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] Captain Tanglefoot has been out riding and attempting to recruit

[Kristelle (Kaz)] The plague has traveled far, but you know that.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] people are scared right now

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] but he has not returned in more than a ten day

Kristelle (Kaz) raises her eyebrows.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] That is a long time.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] nods soberly

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] which way was he heading?

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] we can hope that he is merely delayed

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] he wa to ride the boundries, starting east and turning south

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] looking for any signs of incursions because of our weakness

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] have the Dragonslayers shown up ?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Damn.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] pauses and looks at Foriso

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we sent a message to the Company

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] about?

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] sorry I am not sure what you are talking about

[Master] Arahael Mosskin moved 20'09".

[Master] Missus Mosskin moved 17'11".

[Master] Medoro moved 8'02".

[Master] Captain Tikmok moved 19'01".

[Master] Kristelle moved 9'08".

[Master] Miranda moved 9'08".

[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 13'10".

[Master] Branwyn moved 19'00".

[Master] Foriso Fairhand moved 17'03".

[Master] Indigo moved 23'09".

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we called in the rest of the company to help protect the estates boundries

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] We could not afford to hire the Dragonslayers Company in the best of times

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] I would never tax my Lords resources like that

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Lord Mosskins resources are safe

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And you have done an admirable job. We shall keep our eyes and ears open for Captain Tanglefoot. I am sure he is only delayed.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] Thank you

[Medoro (Master)] Thank you for coming and attending a dinner with Lord Mosskin

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] We are honored to have been invited

Kristelle (Kaz) bows to Lord Mosskin and his family.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] OHhhh Medoro, stop being so formal

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] these are simple good people, they need no pomp

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] and they are well met in any circumstance

Toybin of Castling (Master) looks across the table and blushes furiously

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Thank you very kindly My Lord for hosting us

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] some are simpler than others

[Kristelle (Kaz)] We thank you for your kind words, my Lord.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] So tell me of the affairs out beyond the edges of the Estate

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] well tyhe swamps are wet and nasty places but there are fewer monsters than before

[Branwyn (Lisa)] There is much afoot. The Paladins that were here to heal Foriso are now out hunting a vampire said to be on the loose.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] although there was also almost 1 fewer gentleman adventurer.

Kristelle (Kaz) shakes her head at Foriso.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] There is a necromancer on the run as well. At least he will be until I get my hands on him.

Branwyn (Lisa) ignores Foriso and tries to answer the question

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] Misstress Beewick was in to see me two nights ago

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Until we get our hands on him. It is certainly thanks to Sir Toybin that we took out his lackey.

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] FATHER

Missus Mosskin (Master) blushes

[Indigo (Lisa)] She was? Is she still here?

Toybin of Castling (Master) blushes

Kristelle (Kaz) gives Missus a surprised look.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] no she was here for a visit, no matter how shocked my daughter is about the interactions of men and women

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) grins at Lord Mosskin "I bet that was interesting visit"

Kristelle (Kaz) smothers a laugh.

Indigo (Lisa) looks back and forth across the table and starts to scowl

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] Misstress Beewick told me that your group had stumbled through some troubles but you seem to have recovered nicely

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we even got to meet some rather nice gypsy ladies, one of whom took a liking to me

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] oh really, is there anyone that Gypsy ladies don't like, voice dripping with sarcasm

Kristelle (Kaz) covers her face with one hand and starts to laugh harder.

[Medoro (Master)] COUGHS

[Medoro (Master)] More wine everyone?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] well I dont think they would like you my dear

Kristelle (Kaz) nudges Miranda, who kicks Foriso under the table.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Please Medoro, thank you.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ouch!

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Please, Medoro. It is excellent wine.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] I beleive you were telling me of your trip

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] sorry Medoro I still dont drink wine

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we got to fight a black dragon

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] ooooo

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we made it surrender to us

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] straightens up, that must have been an extreme challenge

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] very well done!

[Kristelle (Kaz)] He was rather young, but yes, it was.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] of course there us one dragon I think most of us would like to get our hands on but I dont see that happeneing any time soon

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] Mister Indigo you have been very quiet, have you been treated well?

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) glares at Kristelle "do I ruin your reports?"

Kristelle (Kaz) gives Missus an indignant look.

[Indigo (Lisa)] By most. I am happy M'lady.

Kristelle (Kaz) turns back to Foriso. "Sometimes you ruin my entire day, clown."

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] only most? pray do tell what has happened Indigo

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Sir Indigo is a fine Knight

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] a brave man and steadfast in battle

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ahh but you have to admit your travels with me are never boring

Indigo (Lisa) shrugs, "It is of little consequence. All is well."

[Indigo (Lisa)] I do wish I could have been here for Bewick's visit. She was very kind.

Kristelle (Kaz) rolls her eyes at Foriso.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] Young Indigo I am sure you will get the chance again

[Medoro (Master)] Miss Miranda, you are quiet as always, what things have you observed from your view point?

[Miranda (Kaz)] There is so much hatred in the world.

[Miranda (Kaz)] And too much pain.

[Miranda (Kaz)] But were there none, I guess I would not be needed.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] There is also great joy

Miranda (Kaz) shakes her head sadly.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] and for that we should celebrate

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] celebrate being alive

[Miranda (Kaz)] Indeed, my Lord. A celebration is always welcome.

Captain Tikmok (Master) raises quiet toast

Kristelle (Kaz) pats Miranda's shoulder.

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] so what brings you here to the Keep?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((gee, good question!!))

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] Iam most grateful for the company and I do hope you will stay for a while

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Im sure we could allow Toybin to stay and keep you compnay

[Branwyn (Lisa)] When we were here last, so many were in dire straits, we did want to make sure that the family was safe and well.

Kristelle (Kaz) rolls her eyes and shakes her head a bit.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Foriso, that is enough.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] maybe he could help explain the interactions between men and women to you

[Medoro (Master)] we have survived is the best way of saying Miss Branwyn

[Kristelle (Kaz)] FORISO!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We do care about the Mosskin family since you took us in when we were in need

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] what?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] im merely trying to help

[Medoro (Master)] We have lost more than a third of the population of the keep

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Medoro, that is terrible!

[Medoro (Master)] and almost half of the local people

[Medoro (Master)] if only the hobgoblins and goblins suffered as many losses

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) whispers to Miranda "we need to see where the company is later"

[Master (to GM only)] Hobgoblin's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 6 (10) - Unharmed

Miranda (Kaz) gives Foriso a worried nod.

[Master] Captin Tikmok, Captain Tikmok

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] just a moment please

[Master] Captain Tikmok moved 44'02".

[Master] Scarlet moved 15'05".

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] so you are stayign for a while?

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) flutters his eyelashes at Missus Mosskin "gee I didnt know you cared"

[Miranda (Kaz)] We had planned to travel to Loosend.

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] OOOOh that sounds very exotic

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] out of the Mists

Kristelle (Kaz) leans back, reaches behind Miranda, and smacks Foriso in the back of the head.

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] able to see the stars

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Ouch!

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] meet peopel from other places

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And the sun. It will be wonderful.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Is there aught we can bring you from the city?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((brb))

[Kaz] I am away from the keyboard.

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] smiles gayily a bit of music? some poetry? a balad of men at arms

[Missus Mosskin (Master)] shakes her head, no there is nothign from there that will help us

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Im sure we could try and convince a bard to return with us

[Master] Captain Tikmok and Hobgoblin moved 17'08".

[Master] Captain Tikmok moved 4'05".

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] Sir Medoro

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps nothing that will help, but I will keep you in mind in our travels. A bit of entertainment does help in its own way.

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] if I may interupt

[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((back))

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] we have a visitor

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] he enters under a flag fo truce

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] he is here to speak with the Dragonslayers

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] why us?

Kristelle (Kaz) raises an eyebrow, glances at Branwyn, and rises.

Indigo (Lisa) reaches for his sword but stays still

[Hobgoblin (Master)] Hello there grand adventurers

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle moved 7'01".

[Hobgoblin (Master)] have I finally been able to track down the Dragonslayers Company?

[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 7'10".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And what do you want with the Dragonslayers?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] are you in fact the Dragonslayers?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (what is this guy serving a subpoena?)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((You have been served))

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] are you a real hobgoblin?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] State your business

Hobgoblin (Master) bows to the lord at the table,

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I am sorry to disturbe you Sire

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I am looking for the Dragonslayers

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I was told they would be here at the Jistelle Estates

Branwyn (Lisa) turns to Mosskin, "You know this goblin?"

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I must have been misinformed

[Hobgoblin (Master)] thank you for your time

[Master] Hobgoblin moved 18'00".

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Who are you, and why do you seek them?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I wish to speak with the Dragonslayers Company

[Hobgoblin (Master)] if you are not them, then I have no need to waste time

Kristelle (Kaz) turns to Missus Mosskin and bows.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Pardon me, if you will be so kind.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I thank you Captain for your honoring my flag of truce

Kristelle (Kaz) walks outside to speak with the Hobgoblin

[Master] Captain Tikmok moved 12'08".

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((jeez dude, give people a chance to type!))

[Captain Tikmok (Master)] I will give you a full day's head start

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle moved 26'01".

[Hobgoblin (Master)] (anything else?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (kaz?)

Branwyn (Lisa) follows Kristelle to goblin

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 29'08".

[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 28'04".

[Master] Toybin of Castling targets Hobgoblin. Distance: 3'02"

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Well, I just said I was walking out to talk with him, but it's meaningless if it isn't acknowledged.

[Master] He asked a simple question are you the Dragonslayers

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((and my effing chat box won't stay up.))

[Master] no one wants to admit to that

[Master] so he is off to search for them

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you're there - speaketh)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] I am of the Dragonslayers Company. Why are you here?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] And why do you seek us?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I want to hire you

Kristelle (Kaz) raises an eyebrow.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Hire us? For what purpose? How intriguing.

Kristelle (Kaz) glances at Branwyn.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] you are a mercenary unit

[Hobgoblin (Master)] you are for hire?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And that means you must be prepared to pay

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Yes, we are. But we don't agree to be hired without knowing the job.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] of course

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I have a very simple job for you

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I want to hire you to not fight for the next three weeks

[Hobgoblin (Master)] 250 gold pieces now

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Impossible!)

[Hobgoblin (Master)] and another 250 gold pieces at the end of your contract

Kristelle (Kaz) tilts her head and looks at the Hobgoblin.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not fight anyone?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not even one who attacks us?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] no you can fight to defend your selves of course

[Hobgoblin (Master)] just not to fight my army that is getting ready to invade

[Hobgoblin (Master)] you will not fight against us, we will ot attack you

Branwyn (Lisa) coughs, "Invade where?"

[Kristelle (Kaz)] You have an army that is about to invade... here?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] Oh we have already come into drillian

[Hobgoblin (Master)] we are moving deeper and I am interested in trying to keep the bloodshed to a minimum

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Of curiosity, who told you we were here?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] you have a good reputation as strong fighters

[Hobgoblin (Master)] and I kow you will not fight FOR us, so the best I can hope for is to not have you fight against us

[Hobgoblin (Master)] several people have talked of your prowess

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Let me make sure I understand you correctly. You plan on taking over all of Drillian?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] laughs, no

[Hobgoblin (Master)] we have no need for a swamp

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The what exactly are your goals?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] we are simply searchign for loot, to build up our warriors skills

[Hobgoblin (Master)] we will go home by the end of summer

[Hobgoblin (Master)] this is nothign but a simple excursion

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And how many of you are there?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] And these lands are amongst those you seek to loot, is that what you are saying?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] when I left my company we had 500 swords

[Hobgoblin (Master)] we do seek to find livers among the entrails

[Hobgoblin (Master)] the choicest bits are the best

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (siege spells not so bad of an idea now)

[Hobgoblin (Master)] (LOL)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] You do understand you are offering to pay us to not defend our home?

[Hobgoblin (Master)] do you have a counter offer?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((yes, my sword in his ear. lol))

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And offering us a pittance at that

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Ooh, it will be so exciting to sit and do nothing while our home is looted.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I am simply trying to find a way to have both sides be as profitable as possible

Kristelle (Kaz) shakes her head.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] where is your home? I will be willing to negociate a bit of security

[Kristelle (Kaz)] If you'd offered to pay for safe passage on the way to somewhere else, perhaps.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] afterall we can not attack you

[Hobgoblin (Master)] OH

[Hobgoblin (Master)] where do you want to go?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] These lands are our home.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] I can arrange for that

[Hobgoblin (Master)] what lands

[Hobgoblin (Master)] looking at Captain Tikmok, he is not a Dragonslayer, I can tell he is no mercenary

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The Jistelle Estates are our lands. And where are your troops now?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] The lands of the Jistille Estate are the lands we live in. If we didn't defend any part of it, we would be evicted and thus have no home.

Foriso Fairhand (Guy) walks outside

Hobgoblin (Master) thinking

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Are you still talking to that beast? Send it on its way and be done with it already

[Hobgoblin (Master)] very well

[Hobgoblin (Master)] we will designate these Estates as off limits for looting

[Hobgoblin (Master)] but if any guards attack us they are fair game

[Kristelle (Kaz)] or fighting

[Hobgoblin (Master)] in exchange you will not take place in any attack on our army

[Hobgoblin (Master)] for three weeks

[Kristelle (Kaz)] still feels odd for someone to pay us not to fight. That's the opposite of the purpose of a mercenary group.

[Hobgoblin (Master)] do you want a moment to discuss it?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Please pardon us for a moment while we discuss your offer.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 24'05".

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle moved 28'07".

[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 28'03".

[Master] Toybin of Castling no longer targets Hobgoblin.

Branwyn (Lisa) walks back to the others

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo moved 9'02".

[Kristelle (Kaz)] What an odd request. Does he really think we can kill 500 hobgoblins and goblins so easily?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't like it. I'd kill him now myself if it wouldn't assure 500 goblins rushing Jistelle Estates

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Exactly my thought. The last thing we need is a goblin invasion here.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] what I dont understand is where is the rest of the company?

[Kristelle (Kaz)] I don't know, Foriso.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] By taking the money we would protect the estates

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Perhaps they didn't get the message?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It seemed to me that they wanted a signed contract before coming here

[Branwyn (Lisa)] With the plague that was hardly possible and then our communication got cut off

[Kristelle (Kaz)] The thing is, we cannot speak for the Guard.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am sur ethey will listen toyou My Lady

[Kristelle (Kaz)] And I would hate for the Estates to lose any more good men simply because they didn't want goblins trekking across their land.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] No, Toby. They do not answer to me, nor should they. They answer to Lord Mosskin.

Kristelle (Kaz) turns to include the group on the other side of the table.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Maybe the goblins beset Capatin Tanglefoot

[Kristelle (Kaz)] That is possible, Branwyn. In which case, they have technically already attacked us.

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] (if you want more time to think about this and debate we can continue this on the site to decide next week)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Might be a good idea. I wish now that I'd just let him go to keep looking.))

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't see we have much choice but to agree. Resources are low at the Estates and this will assure their safety.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If the goblins keep their word.

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] yeah but whos to say they will honor their word?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And it doesn't mean that we have to keep ours...

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Well, if they don't keep their word, then they've broken the contract.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] And if we don't keep our side, word will get out and we will be shamed. I couldn't do that.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And we won't be here to know about it since we are going to Loosend

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] I dont like the idea of going now that we know of this

[Kristelle (Kaz)] I know, Foriso.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Me either, but Miranda deserves her training

[Branwyn (Lisa)] She has been waiting long enough

[Kristelle (Kaz)] And what, Branwyn. Come back to find our home in ruins?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (do we have any plague people we can catapult into the goblin camp?)

[Master] they are immune, only affects humans

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The goblin is more of a mercenary than we are. I have a feeling he will keep his word.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (drat)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Is Lord Mosskin listening to all this? Has he got an opinion?))

[Master] do you want his opinion?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (still want to catapult something onto goblins)

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((how bout the treant lol))

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Is Scarlet's waffle maker ready? waffle themselves into carb stupor)

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((He'd have to agree to his guards not attacking))

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((LOL Lisa!!))

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] If I had the men to protect the walls I would spit in their faces

[Kristelle (Kaz)] My Lord, if you had the men to protect the walls, you'd be spitting into a dead face that had my sword sticking out of it.

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] you can not stay here day in and day out putting off any hope of your own wishes

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] if this will protect us while you are gone

[Arahael Mosskin (Master)] then so be it

Kristelle (Kaz) takes a deep breath and bows to the Mosskins.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Then it shall be.

Kristelle (Kaz) turns and returns to the goblin 'emissary'.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Just let him know that if he breaks the agreement we will hunt him down and destroy his entire army

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle moved 27'10".

[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 28'07".

[Master] Toybin of Castling targets Hobgoblin. Distance: 0'08"

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Have you a name?

[Master] Grilk will do

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((knowing the goblin language, I should really ask: Have you a name I can pronounce?))

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Well, then, Grilk.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] We will agree to allow you safe passage across these lands, not fighting you. In return, you will not steal from or attack anyone on these lands. The guards will not attack your people.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] If there is any damage caused by your army, if we suffer any losses by your army not following this agreement, we will track you for as long as it takes to slay every last one of you.

[Master] and you in exchance will not attack anyone from our army for the next three weeks

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Steps will be taken to insure you and your leaders know the boundaries of the lands we call home.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Unless they make the mistake of attacking us first.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Tell me, of curiosity - have you any humans with your army?

[Master] a few slaves

[Kristelle (Kaz)] Any wearing red?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and you just know they will show up in Loosend while we are there)

[Master] red? none that I know of

[Master] so we have a deal?

[Master] shall I get my gold for you?

[Master] my people are waiting outside with the first chest

Kristelle (Kaz) nods.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] We shall have a contract written up.

[Master] after about an hour

[Master] he returns with a small chest

[Master] two smaller goblins struggling to carry it

[Master] they bring it to the front gate of the Keep

[Master] looking out you see a large number of flags on the flats before the keep

[Master] it looks to be about 250 or more hobgoblins and goblins

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((is that all? heck we can take them))

[Master] lol

[Master] he hands over the chest

[Hobgoblin Grilk (Master)] You can count that if you wish

[Hobgoblin Grilk (Master)] and as a show of good manners

[Hobgoblin Grilk (Master)] here is an extra 10 gold pieces for the food and supplies we have eaten in the last day, just in case any of it is from your protected lands

[Hobgoblin Grilk (Master)] We will be south of here in the morning

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] You shall have your 3 weeks, or until you break your word.

[Hobgoblin Grilk (Master)] and will not distrub anyone on the Estates

Kristelle (Kaz) nods and looks out at the gathered horde

[Master] OK

[Master] so we have a new contract

[Master] the Estates are safe while you are gone

[Master] and first thing next week we hit Redfern Lake

[Master] and then on the road

[Master] sounds good?

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] works for me

[Branwyn (Lisa)] very good

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] I say we leave 200 gold for Lord Mosskin and keep the rest for ourselves

[Lisa] And unless my plane is late, I should be on time next week

[Master] Branwyn XP award: 250. Next level in 27702.

[Master] Foriso Fairhand XP award: 250. Level-up!

[Master] Indigo XP award: 100. Next level in 13215.

[Master] Miranda XP award: 100. Next level in 8564.

[Master] Kristelle XP award: 250. Next level in 18992.

[Master] Scarlet XP award: 150. Next level in 2945.

[Kristelle (Kaz)] I agree. Perhaps it will help him to hire more guards.
