With Kendra out of sight, [b]"Should we investigate the prison? It shouldn't be too far?"[b] she asks, refilling her cup from the pitcher.

"Yes, I think we should. First thing in the morning?"


The professor asked us to stay with his daughter at first. Is a day trip to investigate consistent with this request?

"I don't know if we were meant to be bodyguards or baby sitters, but I see your point. I do feel like we need to get a lay of the land, though. I doubt she would want to accompany us."

"I feel the professor meant for us to remain in town to keep her company. But I'm open to alternatives." Mihaela says. "I agree with Kisasi, I doubt she'd accompany us. Perhaps we could way a day or two to make sure everything calms down and then take a day trip to investigate and come back?"

"I am sure the Professor did not mean for us to hold her hand. She seems to be a strong woman and the Prison is just outside of Town isn't it...? Uhm... maybe we could visit it during the day then return before night?"

Del considers the discussion among the group before answering. "All are valid points. I am concerned that the Professor may have feared for imminent danger for his daughter. I agree with with Mihaela, we shouldn't let her out of our sight for the first few days. Do we think we could take Kendra to town and leave her in trusted company while we were to explore the prison perhaps?

"Supper is ready!" you hear shouted from the kitchen. "Please make your way the dining room to eat."

Upon entering the dining room you see a table that could easily seat ten people occupying the majority of the room. A low backed wooden chair occupies both the head and foot end of the table and a pair of two person benches are pulled out on either side.

Place settings are already on the table and a pot of delicious smelling beef stew is sitting on a stone slab in the middle. A loaf of crusty bread sits near the pot along with a small tub of churn style butter.

"Please take a seat and eat. I am sure you all must be both hungry and tired after your journey to get here today."

Sitting on the floor by the walls you notice several piles of books and papers as well as several framed maps of various areas of Ustalav.

"I could spend a few days simply studying all these books and materials. Thank you, Kendra, for your hospitality."

"Oh this smells delicous Kendra, thank you so much!" Mihaela says eyes the books in the corner.

Perception, books: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12

After dinner, Mihaela will probably go look at the books and maps. Such a bookworm!

You see a half dozen or so books that all appear to be about Orcs including a treatise on Orc mating rituals.

"Thank you. Please eat up. Once dinner is over and I get things cleaned up I plan on heading off to bed as it has already been a very long and difficult day."

"Yes, I am sure it has. Tomorrow, we can talk about what our next days may hold."

Once everyone turns in for the night, Kisasi approaches each of the party to suggest taking turns to stay up and keep an eye on things... just in case something strange is going on. He will be happy to take the first few hours.

Delixia sits down to enjoy the meal that was prepared. After receiving her portion she thanks Kendra graciously. "Thank you Kendra, you are a wonderful hostess."

Making casual conversation she addresses one of the other inquisitors between bites, "So Kisasi, tell me. I cannot seem to place your origin, where are you from?"


On her way past their hostess, Kessa softly speaks into her ear "Thank you for the meal, it smells delicious." Then she quietly sits down to enjoy her meal.


Female Human Diviner 2

In a softly spoken response to Kessa. "You are most welcome. Please help yourself." She gestures Kessa to a nearby open seat.

"Ah, yes, I must seem strange to be sure. My tribe makes it's home in a place called the Mwangi Expanse, in Garund. We are a simple people - well, most of the time. My mother was a member of the Ijo tribe."

Kendra rises from the table clearing away any finished dishes as she moves towards the kitchen. She advises anyone who has not yet finished their meal to bring their dishes to the kitchen when finished. Kendra also clears the table of any remaining food and stores what she can for tomorrow.

Once she is done cleaning up she proceeds to her bedroom to sleep for the night.

You are all welcome to look around the home, venture outside, or go and do whatever you might like to do this evening and during the night.


Female Human Witch 4 | HP: 21/25 | AC:14/FF:11/T:13 | F:+2 R:+3 W:+5 | Init: +12 | Perc: +6 | Sanity 38/40

As soon as Kendra excuses herself to retire for the night, Mihaela moves closer to the pile of books she noticed earlier.

"Lets see what we have here." She picks up a book and thumbs through it.

Perception take 20+3

After she finishes, she looks up at whoever is left in the room. "Does anyone have any plans for this evening or shall we retire for the night?"

"I was thinking about visiting the Inn. I do not like that those men tried to prohibit Miss Lorimir from buying her father. I would like to know more!"


Before Kendra retires for the night, Kessa asks her if there is a place nearby for martial drills, such as an empty barn. She practices her sword drills, and then goes to her room for prayer and reading. She is not avoiding the others, and welcomes any who try to join her, but neither does she seek their company.

Kisasi will stay in the house for this evening, and look over the maps on the walls and browse through the library for anything on the local area.

The large inquisitor leans back in her chair as she narrows her eyes and studies Kisasi. After a moment she pounds her fist on the table lightly with a look of reveleation. "Ah that must be it then! I've not had much experience with The Expanse. I'd like to talk to you further about this sometime."

When the dwarf mentions heading to the inn she inquires, "Were you to leave tonight Orin?"

Mihaela picks up a book entitled Mating Rituals of the Orc Tribes within the Hold of Belkzen. The cover is made of leather and overall the book appears to be between 50 to 100 years old. As you thumb through it you note passages describing both primitive courting between Orc teenagers through tribe chiefs harems. There are also illustrations of both male and female orcs that show developmental changes as orcs age.

Orin: There are two inns in Ravengro. The Laughing Demon (area C on the Ravengro map) and The Outward Inn (area K on the Ravengro map.

Kisasi: As you look over the maps you note that there are markings for various villages, towns, and cities throughout Ustalav. There are also a few areas marked with red X's

"Aye. It is still early enough that the places will have people. You can join me if ya wish!"

Orin stood and made his way to the door, without looking back. He felt too selfconscious to after all.

Orin will head to the Laughing Demon first.


Female Human Witch 4 | HP: 21/25 | AC:14/FF:11/T:13 | F:+2 R:+3 W:+5 | Init: +12 | Perc: +6 | Sanity 38/40

Blushing furiously at the graphic descriptions of Orc mating rituals, Mihaela hears Orin mention that he is heading out. She puts the book back on tbe pile, and scurries out after Orin. "Wait for me, I'm not sure how save it is to travel alone."

Orin slows down, bracing himself before turning and smiling self consciously at Mihaela. "Thank you for offering to watch my back Mihaela. I am glad of the company!"


Female Human Inquisitor 4 | HP: 35/35 | AC: 20 | T: 12 | FF: 18 | CMD: 16 | Fort: +6 | Ref: +3 | Will: +6 | Init: +6 | Perc: +9

Del nods and begins to walk out with Orin but stops, hesitating. She looks back at Kendra and then back to Orin and Mihaela. "Should we be concerned with leaving Kendra here all alone?"

"I will stay with Kendra this evening."

Kisasi seems a little relieved to be staying.

Orin, Mihaela, & Delixia:
You walk through town noting that there is an apothecary, a blacksmith, a pawn shop, a local sheriff's office, the Outward Inn, a town hall, and a general store. Standing in the midst of all of these locations is a gazebo which has a dog sleeping in it.

The shops are closed for the evening however the sound of a lute being played can be heard coming from the Outward Inn.

You move on from the town center down a small side street that has less than a half dozen homes on it and ends at the Laughing Demon. As you enter you hear loud raucous laughter coming from the common room.

You are greeted by a rotund man who has an unkempt shock of curly brown hair on his head. He also sports a large bushy mustache on his upper lip. His face is full of mirth and merriment as he greets you in a loud voice.

"Welcome to the Laughing Demon. I am Zokar Elkarid. How might I be of service to you today? Rooms? Food? Entertainment? We have it all!"

Kisasi:
With Kessa and Kendra already retired for the night and everyone else out visiting a local inn the Lorrimor home is eerily quiet. You can hear the sound of crickets chirping outside. If you move through the home you will note that your footprints even sound loud in the quiet of the house.


Kessa hears Kisasi's offer to stay before she finds somewhere to train. She is sure to tell him when she returns, and also tells him that he can get her if there are any problems he would like her help with.

Kessa:
"Thank you. Enjoy your exercise, I am certain all will be quiet here."

GM:
Kisasi will note all of the entry points and exits for the house, and make sure doors are locked, etc. Once he is happy the place is reasonably secure, he will choose one of the books in the library to read, waiting a few hours for the others to return before finding his bed.

Kisasi:
The Lorrimor has three doors. The front door which faces the street. A side door which goes from the kitchen to an exterior woodshed and a rear door at the end of a short hallway that leads out to the backyard.

In the library you browse through the many shelves of books until you come across a book entitled The Unquiet Dead.

"With the knockings of restless spirits erupting around us, I raised my hand and snapped my fingers thrice, loudly. The raps paused, then responded back in unison. As we called out questions to the dead lord of Montalov Manor, the knocks responded, and we began to unravel the mystery of Arno Montalov’s murder. Suddenly the temperature dropped to a deadly chill, and a pair of spectral hands seized my throat in an iron grip, just as they had seized the estate’s lord some eighty years before."

Mihaela smlies at Orin, "My pleasure." as she follows him through the town.

As they enter the Laughing Demon, Mihaela whispers to Delixia, "Well this seems to be a jolly establishment" smiling at the man, "Is there some festival that you're celebrating that I'm not aware of? It's very exciting in here."

Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

"Ah, no, no festival at the moment. Just friends enjoying some time together. I aim to have a jovial inn where anyone is welcome and made to feel at home. Now what may I do for you this evening?"


Female Human Witch 4 | HP: 21/25 | AC:14/FF:11/T:13 | F:+2 R:+3 W:+5 | Init: +12 | Perc: +6 | Sanity 38/40

"Oh excellent!" Mihaela says, changing the subject she asks, "It's sad what happened to the professor, I wonder what happened to him?"

She's trying to guide the conversation topic towards the professor.


Female Human Inquisitor 4 | HP: 35/35 | AC: 20 | T: 12 | FF: 18 | CMD: 16 | Fort: +6 | Ref: +3 | Will: +6 | Init: +6 | Perc: +9

Del is quite content to let Mihaela do the talking. She seems pleasant to work with and quite excitable to boot. As such she kept some space between the witch and herself when they entered, attempting to appear as if they were not together.

Mihaela wrote:
"It's sad what happened to the professor, I wonder what happened to him?"

The female inquisitor approaches and nods, deciding to join the conversation. "I'm not sure, but did you hear what happened when they were trying to escort him to his resting place? I heard there was a scuffle of some kind."

Looking towards Zokar she asks curiously, "I'm not sure though. Did you hear anything about that?"

"I am not sure what caused the professors death ma'am. I do know his little girl is quite disheartened over losing her father though."

"I was in attendance at the funeral miss. I witnessed you all talk to and scare those ne'er-do-wells way. For that you have my thanks and for the kindness you showed the professor on his last journey the first round of drinks is on the house for you three."

"Where are the others you were with at the funeral? I would like to thank then as well if I could."

Kisasi falls asleep in the chair while reading.

Caught a little by surprise at the recognition by the man, Delixia grimaces for a moment. "Uh, thanks. I mean, you're welcome. We were just doing what was needed to ensure that the peace was kept and the professor's remains were not disturbed."

Looking around she shrugs as she slides into a seat. She decides to slide past the mans question and not answer it directly. "I will make sure to pass on your thanks the next time I see them."

She picks up the offered drink and takes a large sip before using her forearm to wipe away the small splash that dribbled down her cheek. "You have my thanks Zokar. So tell me, those ne'er-do-wells. Do you know them? Should we expect additional trouble here in town?"

"That I do. They are farmers here in town. Superstitious and cantankerous but mostly harmless unless they manage to get themselves together and all fired up. I wouldn't expect any further trouble from them other than maybe a cold shoulder or a mean look."

"As for any trouble here in town, I wouldn't worry about it. The sheriff can deal with any of the minor issues that might arise."

Orin smiled and nodded his head politely to the barkeep, before ordering a mug of ale with a whiskey chaser. When his drinks come, he takes a long swallow of ale, before taking a sip of whiskey and sighing contently. "Beautiful. Thank you."

"So no trouble in the town? How about out of town then? What can you tell me about Harrowstone?"

Silver Crusade

"You are most welcome Master Dwarf. Let me know if there is anything else I can get you."

Zokar pulls a chair around to your table, sits, and leans in towards you before speaking in a hushed voice. "Harrowstone Prison is nothing more than a charred remnant of this towns past. Some of the locals like to believe that it is haunted and will warn you to stay away due to that. I personally believe that it is nothing more than the wind whistling through the burned out remains of the place causing those who wish to believe to think there is more going on there than there is. I would advise avoiding the place though just due to the dangers that a ruin like that could pose to those who don't know better."

"If you want to see the results of the fire at Harrowstone Prison go and visit the memorial down by the river on the south side of town."

"Well, now that you mention it Master Zokar, I am new in town and don't know where to go or who ta talk to to buy materials and the like. I am a smith by trade and could use somewhere to practice my trade and to buy materials I can use. I also need ta know who would be able to sell me the best pipe weed in town."

He nods when the man begins to speak about Harrowstone, sipping his drink appreciatively and listening as he gives his opinion on the place. When he is done, he nods in thanks and smiles. "I will take a look at the Memorial on my way back tonight. Thank ya Master Zokar. I appreciate it!"

"Well if you are looking to ply your trade I would suggest talking to Jorfa. She is the local blacksmith and a dwarf like yourself. As for any other everyday goods a stop by the local general store will fix you right up."

Zokar rises and swings his seat back around to its rightful table. "I should be seeing to my other customers. If you need anything else before you go just let me know."

Mihaela thanks Zokar, "Thank you for the drinks." she tips her drink in recognition. Turning to Orin and Delixia, "Well, that was fruitless, I honestly did not notice him at the funeral and hoping he would have some gossip to share." she sighs, "Any ideas? or should we turn in for the night?"

Perception Check, DC 12:
As you sit, drink, and talk among yourselves you over here bits and pieces of the other conversation going on in the inn's common room.

"So how long do you figure the strangers will stick around?" a tinny voice says. "I heard Council Hearthmount mumbling about them having to hang around for a month." a deeper voice says. Gasps and incomprehensible whispers are heard. "Just give it time. The ghosts that haunt this place will drive them out. And if they don't I am sure we will. Outsiders just don't have the mental toughness that we do to stick it out here." says a gravelly voice.

A group of what you can best guess are mostly farm hands breaks up and begins filing out of the inn to head for their respective homes. They were the only other folks in the common room this evening.
