Though Amber would like to keep the poisoning investigation up, She's not willing to do it alone, Considering some of the unsavory folk wrapped up in it.
"Now hold up, We nearly solved this thing and we're leavin it? That's money and time wasted."
"Well, glad that got settled quickly."
Has nothing to add, but is here just nursing her wounds.
Amber does withdraw, commanding Gray to attack the person who attacked her while she pulls her injured self back behind her allies.
Amber shrugs off the attempt to stun her, Whistles calling gray beside her as she heads towards the fool who just tried to stung her, her and gray both attacking their guardian D6 first.
Clutches her weapons in her hand, and draws her shield. "Get over here and fight me like a real dwarf!" She shouts at them while banging her shield with her warhammer. Gray obeys the command and stays put.
Amber signals to gray and the others to stay put, and she steps out around the corner, holding her warhammer in her hand. "You boys say somthing about booty? That's odd, A few friends of mine recently lost some, any conections?" She says up to them in Dwarven.
"Dwarfs are meat like everyone else."
"I agree We can manacle them to a beam or a pipe or something." "You have two big meals right there, if that's to your taste?" Amber said to the Otyugh, pointing at the dead dwarfs. "If not I'll bring you something later, A Reward for being smart."
"Alright then, We got a few questions for you, You better answer them, unless you wanna end up like your friends here."
"What, Not even gonna talk to'em? Guess we're doin this. Come boy!" Amber runs up wielding her warhammer in both hands, scooting around the dwarfs that have already been attacked, and running at one of the unoccupied ones , Scooting around him so that she was flanking with Gray. Taking her warhammer she swings it up to try and bash the dwarf in his gut. While Gray snaps at his feet.
"well feck me, Quiet boy!" Amber pulls out her war-hammer and grabs gray by the scruff of his neck with her other hand, pinning up against the wall and remaining as quiet as she can
Listens in on their words, quietly trying to overhear their conversation.
Amber takes lead with her Wolf, if anyone attempted to start a light or a torch she would of hissed at them to turn it off. "Just stay in arms reach of me, I can see fine in the dark, don't want to draw unwanted attention and well... You ever seen manure catch fire? It's like the same thing, I've heard tales of people starting torches down here only to have the whole chamber they're in to burst into flames, Don't know if it's true, It can't be right?"
"At least you folk are tall, You have to cross water sometimes down here."
Amber has had to trudge through the sewers before, and has made it a point of her career to avoid crawling through the sewers as much as possible since. They probouly fled through the sewers, You really want to go back in there? She said looking at Gray... And then sighed. "Might be good to see where they popped up at." Amber goes into the sewer to keep following the trail.
Oh yeah, Once all this is resolved Amber goes outside with the wolf and the pig and has ol'Gray sniff the bit of rag.
"Fight club in the River district? I might of been to that one before..." Amber tries to recall if she had ever been to this fight club in the river district or at least if she knows about it.
"And where can I find Krum? I have a few questions I need to ask him."
Asks around, Is trying to see if anyone unsavory has come into a lot of money recently or if anyone in their drinks has been bragging about a big job or heist they just pulled off as well as try to overhear any gossip that might be relevant from the people. When she asks the Barkeep she makes a point to buy a good drink and pay a little extra, Just cause it never hurts.
When Cesarina find her she's still at the bar. "We can give it a shot, let's go outside for this." Goes outside with the officer and Gray and has him sniff the Necklace. And then begins to walk the district with him in hopes he'll pick up a scent.
"I'll ask around a few of the dwarven watering holes, And see if Gray can sniff anything out."
"Yeah lets go."
"Aye, it jist seems loch it'll make it harder tae gie mair workers, ye gang torturin' Th' ones ye got An' hardly fur anythin' 'at seems tae be their faut... But since ye went froo th' trooble, Ye learn anythin' worth knowin' frae'em?"
Amber rolls her eyes at this distasteful sight. "Ever consider just hiring more guards?" She said sarcastically, shaking her head.
Are these survivors surviving attackers or surviving defenders.
Amber doubts this, but either way she's does not pry further.
"10 or 15, And they used magic? this looks a little more complicated than some opportunistic thieves, A Teamup would be for the best I feel." "Why would these people go to such a great effort to loot this caravan? What was in it? Was there anything that would make such an attack worth angering wizards over?" Amber asks the representative.
After some thought she decided to take the bounty put up by the Wizards, that discount is too nice to pas up. She'll start as she always does, go find out what she can, first she needs to find out if any of the local guilds are claiming this heist and find out what they might know, If this was a big guild job she'll most likely abandon it. Usually the guilds can grease enough palms to keep their boys off the board, but it never hurts to check. "Come Gray, We're going to the Gem district."
To elaborate more on Amber associations, She's not employed by the city, she works independently and works both with the city and the criminal undergrowth, Depending on who's paying more at the time, She knows not to cross the guilds and may even have connections in both organisations but first and foremost she's independent. I'll put this in the backstory.
In order of desire. 1 then 3 then 2
Amber leaned on a desk in the Administrative building where they post these bounties for people like her, She asked for something more exciting, hunting down debtor bums was easy, but sort of dull. She had been given three high priority postings to look at. Finding the thieves was right up her alley, But she did ask for something new and hunting more thieves was hardly that. The reward was probably her favorite of the three though. "Could get good mileage out of that discount, I'll have to think about that one." Hunting a Necromancer though, no one could say that didn't sound exciting, But undead... She tossed that one aside. "When hell freezes over." A potential senile old man thinks someone is after his life. Stopping an assassin was a new one for her, seemed like something she might be more fit for... She contemplated for a second and nodded. "Probably this one, But I don't know...What do you think?" She asked, looking down at the Wolf laying at her feet, The one she had been talking to this whole time, when it didn't answer she shrugged and put the documents back on the desk, she would need to think these all over.
"You got anything more exciting than Debtors to hunt today, Chief?" |
