The goons laugh at Omrax, and that laughter ceases almost immediately as Jaggar walks up. The goons all tell you that you'll gets what's coming, as they scatter.
The dwarf looks up at your group, thanking you profusely.
Thank you, thank yiu, as his eyes go wide as saucers.
Are you guys adventurers? Where have you gone to? What have you seen? What have you fought? Where did you come from today? as his mouth tries its best to keep up with the bombardment of questions.
The young dwarf catches his breath, than looks at Jaggar, They were just picking on me, until you guys showed up and scared 'em off. Thank you. They pick of people, they don't care who. \
he starts to talk about the bullying he suffered last week, then stops and goes back to his first thought.
So, are you guys adventurers? I always wanted to grow up and be one. Where have you guys been. What are you doing here? Can I touch your sword?.
He rambles question after question. You can tell he is enamored by you.
Shardra walks up to the young dwarf and puts a hand on his shoulder. "You remind me of my brotheeer. He also used to whiiine whenever we played gaaames and I decided to shooove him off a hiiill."
"Yes, we're adventureeers. What's your naaame, laaad? Do you want to see my booones?"
Requested or not, Shardra takes out her bones and starts explaining about them. "This one's of a chickeeen, and this one's of a mooole. If you toss the booones and these cross, it means you're abooouuut to catch diseeeaaase."

Kajal looks after the behinds of the bullies as they go before looking at the newest fan of the group of Pathfinders. ”Adventurers, that we certainly are! We’ve done plenty of adventuring. I’ve slain or helped slain plenty of devils, for one. Allow me to say that those creatures can be quite difficult to kill if you don’t have silver. Why, once I and my group faced this regenerating thing of terribleness but we all had forgotten to get silver weapons. I was quite lucky to remember that I had earlier procured a number of silver bars, and I even remembered that I had them! So, I took the bars out and let my friends clobber the thing into nothingness using just a few simple silver bars. Ah, that was quite the adventure. That reminds me of the Cyphergate in Riddleport. Have you heard of it? It’s a giant arch between the two halves of Riddleport, covered with Thassilonian symbols. Do you know Thassilonian? It’s quite an interesting language. I resembles modern Varisian up to a point, but I think it’s more interesting to compare it to ancient Azlanti. For example, the grammar...” Kajal keeps on going about the differences of grammar between Thassilonian, Azlanti and Taldane.
”Oh, if you’d like to see magic items, I have a thing you might want to look at,” continues Kajal and shows his quiver that seems to have an impossible amount of weapons and arrows in it. ”See this quiver? It can hold an amazing amount of weapons and arrows and still it only weighs less than a normal quiver. See, this one has 60 arrows, my longbow, short sword and a dagger. But it could hold a bunch of more items like spears. What is your name, by the way?” Kajal finally manages to ask. ”I am Kajal and this is Wiener,” he adds, introducing himself and his sea krait.
The young dwarf, kinda turns away at first, regarding the bones, then "comes around" and is interested in them.
Oh, me. My name is Andar Jor, those stories are amazing. Do you guys have any more? What brings you to this place? Are you gonna kills more demons?
|
Jaggar hears the young lads name 'My name is Andar Jor' and he stops, turns around and goes back when Geatan reminds them they are looking for 'Ingret Jor'.
"Excuse me did you say your name is Andar Jor? Could you be related somehow to Ingret Jor?" Jaggar asks the boy. "We look for Ingret Jor. Can you take us to him? If you do I am sure Omrax will retell the story of how he slew a vicious foe."
|
Omrax takes a step back, dumbfounded.
"Lad, we will do one better and follow you home. Have you ever heard of the World Wound? Well, here we are on patrol with a knight of fame and power...and the demons kept coming...this Knight gave his life to save the lives of people he barely knew and had no reason to help. He did not hesitate to charge into the maw of evil, knowing he would not return. In the end he emulated every tenet of the Inheritor, and beyond that, what else matters? I will never forget him and the example he set for others to follow. That is leadership.""

" Yeah, we had a similar mission. Our escort was an ex-trafiquer who hear the call for the croisade and for a while, a shadow demon had take control of him. Lot of soldiers lost their life before he was free. Something broke inside him, I think.
He was a typical crusader of Mendev. A mortal, not a hero, who was against the demon outside and inside. Neither good or evil. A low templar.
During our patrol with him, we had remind him why I was there. And this fool charged alone a dangerous demon while we took 30 seconds to save some people. If he could have just help us and we would have done it even faster.
Yet he done the best he could think for his community. That deserve respect."

Yeah, she's my aunt. She owns a tavern. I was trying to get business for her tavern, when the guys came out to harass me. Thanks to you guys, they scattered like rats off a sinking ship.
The young Andar, escorts you to The Silver Lining, Ingret Jor's tavern.
"Do you have chickeeen at the taveeern?" Shardra asks Andar on the way to the tavern. "Talking about chickeeen booones made me hungryyy."
Once the party arrives at the tavern, Shardra approaches Ingret. "Hello Ingreeet! I am Shadraaa. I'd like some chickeeen to eeeaaat. How has busineeess been latelyyy?"

Gaétan starts to be annoyed by the voice of Shardra, but he remembers that in each family, there a dumb cousin but you still have to love him.
-Posted with Wayfinder
Andar, what did you get yourself into, she says questioning the young dwarf.
Auntie, I was just trying to get more business to the tavern. These people helped me. Some thugs surrounded me, but the big half-orc scared them off with his muscles
Sorry folks for Andar, he is naive but he means well. So, what can I get ya?[/b[, she says with a slight note of distrust in her voice.
Shardra tried to get on Ingret's good side.
[b]Ya, that will be 1 silver piece, as she still look at your group with suspicious eyes.

Kajal listens as the young dwarf gives his name and is glad they found Ingret Jor’s relative so soon. As Andar leads them to the tavern, Kajal shares some more pathfinding stories with a couple of detours to extraplanar creatures and how to avoid being hit in a knife fight and still be able to cast a spell with no trouble.
”Jaggar, surely you remember more than that,” prompts Kajal from Jaggar. ”What was the best city you’ve had an adventure in? For me, it is possibly Kaer Maga, mostly for its extraordinary architecture, but the people are rather... unique as well.”
After they meet with Ingret Jor in the tavern, Kajal continues being jovial but rather lets Shardra do most of the talking since Ingret probably feels more comfortable with another dwarf. ”Helping Andar was no problem. We are adventurers, but we seek no trouble in good establishments such as this one. And, I would like to have a glass of wine of your recommendation, thank you.”
Shardra gives Ingret ten gold. "I beliiieeeve this covers chickeeen for everyooone. With enough leeeft for mooore, like driiinks. One aaale for meee pleeeaaase."
"Andaaar, why don't you sit with meee? Want to know how to tell your futuuure with just chickeeen booones?"
Shardra starts eating her chicken and places all the bones on a pile. She makes sure they're all clean of flesh. "Do the saaame with your chickeeen and I'll shooow you hooow."

Gaétan Émond rolled his eyes. "Happy to help a family. We are the Pathfinder Society. We are looking for a part of a artefact called the sky key. This item was given to the descendants of the king of Jormundom
and we think you are one. "
-Posted with Wayfinder aid another.
Ingret looks you all over. She seems to be scrutinizing every movement you make, every word you speak. She seems to be studying everything you do, for she trusts nobody, let alone strangers that just walked into her bar.
After a few tense moments, she puts her fingers to her mouth and lets a shrill whistle flow. She barks in a very forceful tone,
After a few moments, the bar is clear, the only one remaining are you and Ingret and Andar. She reaches under the bar and grabs a lock-box, then under her apron and grabs a key. She opens, and puts a leather, very well worn journal on the top of the bar.
There it is, she says. It’s my great-grandpapa’s journal. He went looking for the heirloom that came from Jormurdun, carried here by our honored ancestor Prince Toggrim. I remember as a child sitting on great-grandpapa’s lap hearing him spin tales about going down to that ruin to see with his own eyes where our Toggrim hid that piece of the Sky Key. It’s all there in that journal. A map’s there, too, I think.
You MUST keep this a secret, speak of it to nobody.
---------------------
You gather the journal, and after a few moments, you come to find out that the location of the Sky Key component lies a few short days from Chessed. You don't have time to discuss much after that, as the doors to the bar are blown inward with a blast of such concussive force that your ears ring for a few seconds. You hear a nasally voice cry out.
Jor! Jor! I know you’re in there. The League is done playing games. Surrender your secrets or die with them!

You have enough time to grab your weapons, Omrax, Jaggar and Geatan. Unfortunately, you are ill-prepared for what is about to come at you.
A man, wearing studded leather armor, activates the whip he is holding, it begins to hum with a en energy that can only be presumed could cause severe pain. He attacks Jaggar, despite him hiding behind the door frame, while casting a spell in hopes to deliver a crackling strike.
Hmph, you expect to be able to stop me! Try it kids!
A jolt of electricity goes through Jaggar's body, causing him to seize momentarily as his body convulses.
Ingret, then grabs her heavy crossbow, and fires at the man, who just left a deep gash in Jaggar's arm. Even, despite her amazing aim, misses the amn as the bolts thuds at the man's feet.
The robot than flies in, and fire a laser at Omrax.
Jaggar, were you using PA, if so please make a note of it in future posts, otherwise I will presume you are not :) Or let me know that you always PA unless you say otherwise :)

Kajal eats happily while Ingret observes him and the others. When she orders everyone else out, he just watches them go.
Kajal then examines the journal earnestly and is about to ask a bunch of questions when the Technic League, apparently, comes bursting through the door. Kajal startles and makes a weird face at the intruders and their gear – not that his expression would be easily seen since he has put his mask back after eating.
Well, since the League is after secrets, they can’t have them. Kajal blocks their view to the journal with his body and then slips the book safely into one of the side pouches of his handy haversack. ”It’s safe there,” he whispers to Ingret.
”Hmm? Resistance of what?” asks Kajal from Géatan.
Kajal then takes out his longbow and looks at the enemies. Some guy with an... electric whip? A funny looking golem or something? Kajal thinks it’s all rather fascinating.

Sir Greycloak, it appears you gave the better in the exchange, but just to take the sting from his whip."
With the door blocked and robot being handled by Geatan, Omrax will slap Jagger on the back.
Omrax casts protection from energy (electricity/20) on Jagger and then swiftly heals himself.

Shardra moves to the south wall and moves her hands around in the air. "Spirits of the plaaants, prevent their approooaaach!"

A bead of right line, streaks from his finger and explodes into a ball of fiery inferno.

Neddrick then smirks. That hurt, allow me to return the favor.
He takes a step back, then tries to slash Jaggar again with his whip, but can only bash the door.
Ingret, than reloads he crossbow and takes a shot at the robot, but fails to penetrate through the robot's hardness.
The robot than fires 4 lasers all at Geatan.

”Hup,” says Kajal and attempts to evade the fireball.
Both he and his familiar come out of the fire completely unscathed.
He then decides to leave the robot to Géatan and moves to hide behind Jaggar and the doorway.
Finally, Kajal tries to pierce the fireballing half-orc with a surprise arrow.

Omrax tries to avoid the fireball blast by staying close to the corner.
Seeing the robot is still active and he is unable to get outside, he moves 25' north, drops his longsword and draws his adamantine greatsword. En route he will quickly heal himself with a prayer to Iomedae.
"Sir Emond, continue to shoot outside, I will deal with this pest.
