"I can go feel out this Harker fellow and see how he feels about his future father-in-law."
"I'll try the Mayor first... see if I can find out if there are others." Zeldana said. "If so we can plan to catch one of them in his arms. That way it wouldn't matter if your sister tells everyone. Well at least not enough to risk our structure. And while I'm there I will heavily suggest she remain away." with that Zeldana was off to see the Mayor.
Shayliss said "He probably isn't that much of a fan of my dad, he's hated him since he caught him. That sounds like a good idea, I'm glad you're here to help.", after she leaves shayliss walks over and kisses you, slap you on the ass and says "You better get going soon."
Tamm will head out to the lumber mill, thinking that's the best place to find Harker.
Loxley picks up her pack again and gives a small sigh of relief when Aldern offer to supply the horses.
”Oh that would be too kind of you, good sir.”
She slips the bow from her pack as she follows Yeda’s lead out of the Rusty Dragon. She glances over her shoulder at Corrin and jokes.
”Unless you think Dewdrop would let me ride him?”
She smiles and chuckles as she turns her attention to checking her own bow.
Sazzat you make your way to the mill, and you see it in operation
Aldern says "Do you know if there is an armory here in town? I will use my own bow, and this lady seems to have her own bow, but you and I'm not sure about your elf friend."
Tamm will approach the mill, look for a front door, and enter to see if anyone is around.
"You hunt boars with bows?I've never hunted boar before but I was under the impression that you chased them about with dogs then used spears from horseback. Their hides being usually too thick to peirce with arrows. I have my spears."
He began tilting his head to the side slightly and grinning at miss Loxley.
"I've never asked him how he feels about a rider. Im sure he would let you if you know how to ride without a saddle and bit. Maybe. I cant see him liking those devices at all."
He smiles at Yeda "I would gladly buy a normal longbow for you, if you would like to use a bow." he then turns to Corrin "It provides an interesting challenge, and additional tool."
Sazzat you sneak around the back and it seems like the machine is operating upstairs.
You guys travel a few hours into the forest, and as you enter a valley roll a perception or survival check.
Tamm goes up the the front door of the mill and sees if it's open.
”I tease Corrin. I wouldn’t dream of saddling Dewdrop with, well, a saddle.”
She chuckles again as the group heads out, into the midday forest.
Loxley takes a deep breath as they ride.
Zeldana you cross the Sandpoint bridge, onto The Lost Coast road and turn onto Schooner road, past the Scarnetti, Kajitsuu, and Valdemar manors and reach Deverin manor. You approach the manor and rap on the door, and about 15 seconds you later you see a 5ish-year-old boy open the door and give a toothy grin. He takes a deep breath about to speak but is cut off by a maid picking him up (roll an int check), who looks at you questionably "Hello Mrs Amaria, how may I help you?"
It is currently open Sazzat
Aldern smiles as if thinking back to a simpler time "The calm is nice, this is really what I was looking for when I came here, not the dreadful goblin attack."
"Miss." Zeldana corrected. "I am here to speak with the mayor. It is rather important else I wouldn't be here." She explained.
You remember this woman was an occasional customer a few years ago, she was kind rude and a know it all, it was almost welcome when she stopped visiting.
She sets the boy down and tells him "Go run along now." and she turns to you "If I had a gold piece for every person who said she had something important to say to the mayor I wouldn't have to work this crappy job. she then pauses for a second as she thinks a second 'Did you have a interesting vision about the mayor?"
Tamm pokes his head into the mill and looks around.
"Hello? Is there anyone here?" he calls out.
You get no response, though that might be because of the noise of the machine
"That is a seer, I don't get visions." Zeldana said. "No, I've some information she will want to hear." She explained. "And no I will not pass it along second hand, that is how misunderstandings are made. I wish to be as clear as possible."
Roll persuasion
Tamm steps into the mill and looks around.
He chuckled at Loxley's jest as they traveled about towards the probable home of sandpoints boars. He and dewdrop ranged about looking for game signs while occasionally keeping his eyes back torwards the party.
Zeldana the lady sighs and says "Come right in, I'll go affirm the mayor is ready to see you. She walks off and comes back about 5 minutes later [b]"The mayor is ready to see you" and she leads you upstairs. Anything you want to do before meeting the mayor?
You look around and see that there is a chute from the above floor to a container on this floor, and you see a trap door with a pull down ladder leading up to the floor above. It is currently pulled down.
Also Hunters roll a stealth check at a -5 penalty
"Oh thank you." The young half-elf said with a smile. Zeldana follows the servant quietly.
She leads you into a library, where the mayor sits at her deck with papers. She looks up and smiles then walks over to greet you "Miss Zeldana, how may I help you on this fine day. I'm told you have something important to say, and apparently, you must have been convincing as you were let through."
"I can be when I must." Zeldana said with a humble shrug before she closed the door. "I am here to speak about one Benny Harker." She explains. "You are, familiar with him, are you not?" She asked.
She shrugs "I suppose I know him yes, know the town and the people of the town is part of my job after all."
Zeldana raised an eyebrow as she said "So, what Shayliss's father saw was true." though she kept her voice low and nonthreatening. "Really what do women see in him?" She honestly asked. "I mean... he doesn't seem that... special."
After a moment she shook her head and shrugged. "Each their own I guess." Zeldana commented. "Do you really believe that wise?"
You look around and see that there is a chute from the above floor to a container on this floor, and you see a trap door with a pull down ladder leading up to the floor above. It is currently pulled down.
Yes
She says "I don't know, but if I had to guess you'd be able to find out at the pixie's kitten."
"Yes but I'd rather not go asking around. After all if I did then I'd had to explain where I got the information from." Zeldana pointed out in a matter of fact way. "Which I don't believe you'd want."
Seeing the boars and seeing the fact they didnt notice him but seemed focused on Yeda he let forth a sharp whistle and pointed them out to the others. He then readied himself to stab the boar if it charged him.
Tamm checks out the trap door quietly.
Loxley notices Corrin and Aldern stopping short and is able to stop in time, even as Yeda rides out into the open. She fumbles for only a moment as he pulls an arrow and notches it, wasting the element of surprise that Corrin is able to take advantage of.
Zeldana scrunched up her nose and shook her head. "I don't even think he'd believe that." She said. "Plus I just... couldn't. Honestly I'm still trying to figure out how many would... Well I guess his style is just not mine. Quick and easy seems... foolish." Zeldana said with a shrug. "I mean if you really want that you could go to Pixie's Kitten, true you'd have to pay for it but at least there is no illusion of what could be." However she blink a few times before giving a sigh. "Sorry, I got off of topic there for a moment my apologies! But as you said, those at the... hold a moment... doesn't Katrine work at the Pixie's Kitten?" Zeldana asked.
"Hello there!" Tamm calls out cheerfully.
"I knocked downstairs, but I'm guessing you couldn't hear me."
"Would you have a minute to talk?"
