Weyland:
You do not find a whole lot at first. By dumb luck you over hear something about a feast at the Lugus residence to honor the union of Ser Langley and Lady Marita Lugus.
Tarris:
I tell you what, you get me to the castle in good health, and attend the Lugus feast with me, and we will call it a deal. I could use a lord on my side, consider this my finacial backing for the archery tournament, and perhaps you can allow me to attend the tournament with the men of your house? The merchant suggests with an obvious hopeful tone.
I would be honored.
Ser Weyland:
Once I hear that tidbit I head back to Daisy's (at night) to see if my benefactor has left any further messages for me.

Weyland:
You come back to the Brothel and Daisy is there. Our friend wants us to go to this Feast. I have something to do there, and he believes you are interested in going as well. He suggests you play the part of a Dornish Hedge Knight, and I am your wife. I have an inventation for a Ser Archey. According to our friend he is only known by name, and will not be attending, though the Lugus and Dannett do not know this.
Tarris:
[b] Very good then friend, let us shake hands and seal the deal He extends his hands. You travel down the road and come to a crossing. Please, might we travel up that road a bit to visit the ruins of the Dannett's farm, I want to see it for myself. Maybe I can make sense of what happened. Rog asks earnestly.
Ser Weyland:
"Correct I am interested in going indeed. The Lugus have met me before, I suppose I will have to cut my hair else I would have an altercation straightaway".
Weyland considers reaching out to his family and retainers but decides against it as too risky.
"Tell me Daisy, can you find out from our benefactor what has become of my mount?"

Weyland:
Oh, ok yes I have wigs and makeup, I can even make it appear that you have a scare on your face. I will ask about your horse, I gave you all that was given to me. Usually horses of criminals are retained at the stables by the Lion Gate. We have two days to prepare for the feast. Try to aquire some fine Dornish clothing and practice the part. The young woman speaks confidently and very casual about crashing a nobel party.

Tarris:
It is a deal then Rog shakes your hand and bows. You travel for a while and come to a small dirt road that turns off the main road. Please Ser Tarris, might we go up the road a bit. I would like to visit the Dannett homestead one last time and maybe make sense of what happened.
ok previewed this it seems to work
Tarris:
I am no ser, no knight. I too would like to see what can be seen of this homestead, or what remains. I think we have time if it is not too far.

Not saying anything about the crossed words when reading it at the moment, but he will still ask "Did their engagement was cancelled for some reason?" as he raises his hands as to stop the answer from coming just yet "I just ask because the names are crossed so I was curious I meant no offense"

I keep my men-at-arms mounted and on watch while I dismount and take a closer look around. Looking for tracks, searching the farmstead for anything or any information I can find.
Salamae:
Salamae nods in agreement, to attend the feast. "I count myself along the blessed to be so invited. You have my thanks."

Salamae:
The young lord leaves. A few hours later a young man comes in when you are alone. Greetings Septa of the Seven.I heard you are going to the Lugus feast.I was wondering if you would be so kind as to give Ser Orten a gift for me? I was to attend, but I must leave tonight on important buisness.
Salamae:
Salamae regards the young man's words carefully. Is there any malice in his request, hidden or otherwise?

Weyland spends the next day shopping for clothing with the limited funds he has left. He also searches for rumors about the fire and about Dorne as it is a land he is not overly familiar with.

You do get the impression there is more to this package then it just being a simple gift. The man is hiding something, but it is not malice, at least not towards you or Orten.

There is not a lot of rumors about the fire other than there was one. You pick up a little information on Dorn

Gillem:
You hear a rumor that Iris went missing, it is possible she ran away since this was an arrangement she was open about being against.
Weyland:
The longer you stay at the brothel, the more apparent it becomes that this is a lot more than it seems. You have noticed the King's treasurer, Lord Balish, coming and going more often than usual, and not just to spend time with the girls. In fact one time it sounded as if he was giving instruction to the girls.
Tarris:
Because of concealment of the trees you miss your target. You make it back to Rog and see that he is very ill, by your heal check you know the arrow that hit him was poisoned.
Tarris:
Hold fast good ser. Let me see if I can find something to help. Now we know these were no ordinary bandits.

Tarris:
You are thinking of how to aid your friend when you have an epiphany, your remeber Rog is an alcohol merchant and he mentioned fine Dornish wine. You remeber that really fine Dornish wine is considered a cureall of sorts and is known to stave off poison for a time. You find the wine in his cart of things and give him some. An hour later he is able to slump on his horse if need be. It is mid day and you are 24 hours to King's Landing.
Ser Weyland:
I will ask Daisy about his role at the brothel.
[Ser Weyland] "Am I here for the tourney or just for this wedding? Another more relevant question is what am I expected to do at thus wedding? Just sit there and play nice?" [/spoiler]

There might be a reward for her return and maybe gain some influence and favors from their House... Gillem will try to investigate more about those Houses involved and a way to approach the "grieving family" of the lost girl.

Weyland:
[b] This is not wedding, just a feast for celebration. What you do is up to you sweety, you are just accompaning me as far as I am concerned. My employer thought you would want to attend, and you aggreed. I have my own role to play once inside that is not connected to you. So it is mutually beneficial. As far as the tournament, well I guess that is also up to you, I do not know much about such things. I am tired and am going to sleep. You should rest also
Gillem:
The wedding is not yet announced, it might be at the feast. The feast is in honoring the engagement not the wedding. Roll Diplomacy/Knowledge local to gather intelligence.
Tarris:
Very well, give me two additional heal checks to see how well you are maintaining and monitoring our friend. You are about to end chapter 0, and with that you will recieve a Hero Point(APG for Rules on them) you can forgo recieving that to reroll a failed heal check to save Rog since he is important.(This option is from the campaign itself so thought I would present it, you do not require Rog to continue though.

Salamae:
Sensing your hesitation the Lord gets nasty I hear you were to be a silent sister, but failed. It would be a terrible tragedy if the people were to learn that the reason for this was inpure relations with fellow Septa. I bet you'd be stoned in the street.
Intrigue(Intimidate] vs your intrigue defense of 15 is a hit. damage +1 is for 5 over DC , take 4 from your composure. You may fire back, attempt a comprimise, or relent and take the package.

Tarris:
Rog is reacting well to the Dornish Wine. You think he will make it. The rest of the trip is uneventful and you make it to King's Landing finally.
Gillem:
You hear that Iris was last seen in King's Landing, and it is known that she was not very self sufficent. Some people think she is either hiding in town or ran off with another man.
Little bird who clipped your wings? The portly eunuch asks a young man laying in a bed of hay inside a horse stable. Fffox. The young man struggles to respond. Oh dear me, were it not so busy around here I would just send the hound to deal with that one, perhaps the enemy of my enemy will do. Thank you little one, I bring you sweet release, sleep now. The large man revels some milk of the poppy out of his sleeve and gives it to the broken man. Varys turns to walk out just as a stable boy enters with a young mare. Oh my, you are too good at your job, I had hoped it would take you longer to finish those duties He says casually while removing a thin blade from his belt and running it through the smiling lad's throat. Too many little fingers in my pie. He thinks to himself as he walks out of the stable.
Some of you I had to rail road a bit, appologies, but needed to maintain the story a bit and keep you relativly together. Salamae I know it seems you did not do as much to warrent a level probably, but this could be a reflection of past experiance catching up. Good job overall, I am enjoying this game a lot and think you are all doing well.
Salamae:
Salamae remains silent for a moment. "While it is true that I have failed in my sacred promise to serve the Stranger, at least my words have never been so unguarded. Your rudeness gives your House no honor." Salamae accepts the task, making a mental note to repeat all that was heard from the Lord along with the gift before it was opened.

Salamae:
The composure damage is really just a gage of when you have failed an arguement and will suffer some consequence, depending on the social skill and intent of the one you are in an intrigue with. In this case, he is trying to intimadate you into doing him a favor. Once you reach 0 composure, you truly believe his threat and would submit to his request, simular to a compulsion spell. After this exchange you will have full composure against anyone else. So I understand you are excepting the gift, but intend to relay how you were treated when you give it.You are right, I have let anger get the best of me. This is an important package, and I am desperate.Please do not make me act on that desperation, my lack of honor will be the least of your concerns. The lord says with a slight nod. He seems very sincere, both in his appology and in his veiled threat.
Ser Weyland:
I will spend the last day continuing to get into the role of my new identity and attempting to gather more data on who will be at the feast.

The Feast
You arrive at House Orten. The estate is large for a minor house, and in a very nice section of the city. The Feast is both inside the house and outside in the courtyard coverd by a large tent. When you arrive the house Maester announces you.
Weyland:
You and your "Wife" arrive. As soon as you are announced Ser Orten approaches you. Disguise roll for Daisy +2 for circumstances . Ser Orten is oblivious to your disguise. Ah, Ser Achley at last. Then whisperingI thought I asked you to be discret, but no matter lets go down to the cellar to discuss buisness.
Tarris:
You get Rog to a Maestar. He is in bad shape and can not go to the feast and must remain under their care. He gives you the Invitation. Find out what these rotten people are up too good Ser Tarris, you may not be a knight, but you are the most nobel person I have met. When you arrive at the feast the Maester announces you. A woman approaches. Ah, and where is the good merchant Rog, Tarris was it? I am Lady Marita good to make your aquatince.
Gillem:
You arrive at the feast and the Maester announces you.
Ser Langley greets you. Good of you to come. Lets have some drink!I will introduce you to my Lady. As you walk over to get something to drink for a second the room goes black.Their is a Dragon here. Kill it! The all too familar sound of the Szinroc inters your mind for a brief momment. It fades and you regain your sight. Are you ok Ser Gillem? Langley asks.
