[9/16/16, 7:01:19 PM] Josh: Ok.  To the previously on, then...

[9/16/16, 7:02:12 PM] Josh: Last time, after saving the librarian Tome from some horrible animal-men, you learned from the two you managed to befriend that they are servants of The Marquis.

[9/16/16, 7:02:40 PM] Josh: After they bamfed back to the feywild, presumably, you ran into Temporary Captain Whitestone, of the Witch Hunters.

[9/16/16, 7:02:51 PM] Josh: He was most pleasant, and gave you some backstory on Max.

[9/16/16, 7:03:53 PM] Josh: You met with Koorak to talk about Belza's pregnancy, worked out a salary with William that everyone seemed ok with, learned a bit more about the upcoming Dragon Festival, and, finally, helped sooth a mourning fey queen.

[9/16/16, 7:04:41 PM] Josh: You guys have just left Janis/Verenestra's office, and are on your way out, when you hear a boisterous call from behind.  "AH!  Hello, again."

[9/16/16, 7:05:14 PM] Josh: Turning around, you see the familiar golden sight of the Dragonborn Ambassador, Argesh T'Vull.

[9/16/16, 7:05:49 PM] Quill: Ambassador Argesh.

[9/16/16, 7:06:35 PM] Josh: Argesh: "Mister Quill.  Or do you go by Officer Quill now?  Forgive me, your organization is quite new, and I am unfamiliar with the titles."

[9/16/16, 7:07:38 PM] Josh: Argesh: "I wanted to congratulate you all on your recent drug bust.  Vampires, I understand.  Very dangerous."

[9/16/16, 7:08:07 PM] Quill: Thank you, Ambassador.  And Mister is just fine, thank you.

[9/16/16, 7:08:13 PM] Creed: "Pale Drows, but yes." Creed cuts in.

[9/16/16, 7:08:23 PM] Josh: ((...that song was shorter than I thought it was...heh.))

[9/16/16, 7:08:31 PM] Creed: (( there should be a loop option ))

[9/16/16, 7:08:44 PM] Josh: ((Ah, got it))

[9/16/16, 7:08:59 PM] Quill: Pretty sure they identify as vampires first.

[9/16/16, 7:09:26 PM] Creed: "They can identify themselves as whatever they want to, but they'll still meet my blade before any introductions come forth after what we found."

[9/16/16, 7:09:44 PM] Josh: Argesh: "Good, good.  Glad to hear that."

[9/16/16, 7:10:17 PM] Josh: Argesh: "I had a secondary objective, however.  I am sure you've heard of the festival coming in a few days."

[9/16/16, 7:11:01 PM] Hank: It might have been mentioned once or twice.  I am sure you are quite busy with the organiation of it.

[9/16/16, 7:11:10 PM] Creed: "We've seen the pamphlets going around, or at least I have."

[9/16/16, 7:11:13 PM] Quill: I prefer to think of them as vampires rather than Drow.

[9/16/16, 7:11:24 PM] Quill: And yes.  I myself was looking quite forward to the festival.

[9/16/16, 7:12:23 PM] Josh: Argesh: "I am glad to hear that.  My government has been hoping to get those outside the empire to visit this year, as a sign of goodwill to the other races.  I also wanted to give you this."

[9/16/16, 7:13:21 PM] Josh: And it's only now you notice the servant to his right, a sleek black dragonborn woman in a very simple dress, with a crest on the front.  He prods her and she holds out a letter to whomever is closest.

[9/16/16, 7:13:38 PM] Creed: Creed will accept the letter, eyebrow raised

[9/16/16, 7:14:27 PM] Hank: Is this like the last time you gave us a letter Ambassador?

[9/16/16, 7:14:46 PM] Josh: Argesh: "It is a special pass.  I am designating a special section for viewing at the parade for certain members of the city's elite.  I hope the five of you will be present."

[9/16/16, 7:15:29 PM] Creed: "Would you happen to have a layout of these sections as well?"

[9/16/16, 7:15:48 PM] Creed: "Forgive me if that sounds rude, I have reason to be cautious due to previous experience."

[9/16/16, 7:15:49 PM] Quill: ((Trying to get a sense of where he's coming from on this.))

[9/16/16, 7:15:58 PM] Quill: ((I critted.  I look into his brain.))

[9/16/16, 7:16:10 PM] Creed: (( lmao ))

[9/16/16, 7:18:06 PM] Josh: ((Creed, can you roll perception?))

[9/16/16, 7:18:22 PM] Creed: (( will do ))

[9/16/16, 7:18:38 PM] Josh: Argesh: "I have provided a layout for the whole parade to the city.  Your boss should have a copy if you desire one."

[9/16/16, 7:18:59 PM] Quill: Quill reaches over to Creed for the letter.  "May I?"

[9/16/16, 7:19:12 PM] Creed: Creed gives it to him, unopened.

[9/16/16, 7:19:53 PM] Creed: "May I ask who your servant girl is? I don't see a black dragonborn everyday, I apologize again if that comes off as rude."

[9/16/16, 7:20:11 PM] Quill: Quill opens the letter.

[9/16/16, 7:21:12 PM] Josh: Argesh: "Oh, Malayssa?  She's apparently a friend of Ambassador Underbarrow.  Or, friend of a friend, at least.  My last assistant...resigned recently.  Very unfortunate, so it was nice of her to introduce me to this very helpful young lady."

[9/16/16, 7:21:51 PM] Josh: Malayssa curtsies to you.  "Pleasure to meet you."

[9/16/16, 7:22:42 PM] Rune: Rune bows.

[9/16/16, 7:23:30 PM] Creed: "How long have you been in service, Malayssa?"

[9/16/16, 7:24:18 PM] Josh: Malayssa: "I started work here a couple days ago."

[9/16/16, 7:24:58 PM] Creed: "No no, I don't mean here, I mean overall as a servant girl."

[9/16/16, 7:25:29 PM] Josh: Malayssa: "A year or two."

[9/16/16, 7:25:59 PM] Quill: How do you know Ambassador Underbarrow?

[9/16/16, 7:26:34 PM] Josh: Malayssa: "She's friend's with a friend of my family."

[9/16/16, 7:27:19 PM] Creed: (( lol ))

[9/16/16, 7:27:26 PM] Josh: ((Sorry, messing with things))

[9/16/16, 7:28:36 PM] Creed: Creed seemingly studies the girl

[9/16/16, 7:29:25 PM] Quill: Thank you again for the invitation, Ambassador.  I know I'm looking forward to the Festival.

[9/16/16, 7:30:16 PM] Creed: Creed snaps her fingers and smiles

[9/16/16, 7:30:31 PM] Creed: "Ambassador, do you mind if I speak with her in private for a small while?"

[9/16/16, 7:30:43 PM] Josh: Argesh: "...with my assistant?"

[9/16/16, 7:31:09 PM] Rune: ... are you hitting on her?

[9/16/16, 7:31:13 PM] Creed: "Yes, I've met her before and I would like to reward her for her help, presumably under private pretense."

[9/16/16, 7:31:26 PM] Creed: Creed smacks Rune's ankle with her tail

[9/16/16, 7:31:59 PM] Josh: Malayssa: "I do not mind, Ambassador T'Vull.  Unless you need me right away?"

[9/16/16, 7:32:28 PM] Rune: Ow.

[9/16/16, 7:32:33 PM] Josh: Argesh: "Uh...no...just meet me back at my office, as soon as you are able."

[9/16/16, 7:32:44 PM] Rune: Rune gives Creed a dirty look.

[9/16/16, 7:33:04 PM] Creed: Creed is putting on a fake smile, as far as Rune may be able to tell

[9/16/16, 7:33:07 PM] Josh: Malayssa grabs Creed by the arm and forcefully pulls her away.

[9/16/16, 7:33:16 PM] Quill: Quill smiles at Argesh and pockets the invitation.

[9/16/16, 7:33:45 PM] Quill: Surface folk, you know?  They do weird things.

[9/16/16, 7:34:03 PM] Rune: I don't do weird things.

[9/16/16, 7:34:08 PM] Rune: Do I do weird things?

[9/16/16, 7:34:17 PM] Josh: Argesh: "...I do not believe I do things this weird."

[9/16/16, 7:34:28 PM] Quill: Oh, no offense.

[9/16/16, 7:34:50 PM] Hank: I would like to think I don't do weird things.

[9/16/16, 7:34:52 PM] Quill: Sometimes people just have an instant connection, you know?

[9/16/16, 7:35:01 PM] Quill: Clearly those two do.

[9/16/16, 7:35:26 PM] Quill: Don't worry, though, sir.  Creed is a fine person.  I'm sure she'll be a good influence.

[9/16/16, 7:36:44 PM] Josh: Argesh: "...with all do respect, I kind of doubt that."

[9/16/16, 7:37:05 PM] Quill: Yes, but love can change a person.

[9/16/16, 7:37:52 PM] Hank: I am sure the ambassador has better things to do than talk to us in a hallway, his festival is in just a couple days.

[9/16/16, 7:38:05 PM] Quill: Indeed!

[9/16/16, 7:39:22 PM] Josh: Argesh: "That is quite true.  And I have done all I wanted to do here."

[9/16/16, 7:39:44 PM] Quill: Quill bows.  "Thank you for your time, Ambassador."

[9/16/16, 7:40:06 PM] Josh: Argesh: "Please, the pleasure is all mine.  If you can, see if you can convince your captain to come."

[9/16/16, 7:40:16 PM] Josh: Argesh: "I understand she is typically a hard get."

[9/16/16, 7:40:44 PM] Rune: She's awfully busy.

[9/16/16, 7:41:05 PM] Josh: Argesh: "I understand, but whatever you can do."

[9/16/16, 7:41:14 PM] Josh: Argesh bows.

[9/16/16, 7:42:08 PM] Quill: Quill waits till he's gone, then turns to the others.  "He wants us there to see something.

[9/16/16, 7:42:17 PM] Rune: Or to be caught holding the bag again?

[9/16/16, 7:42:41 PM] Quill: No, he's invited others.  The 'Elite' as he said.

[9/16/16, 7:42:51 PM] Quill: He wants us all to see something.

[9/16/16, 7:43:23 PM] Hank: Or too take out as many of the 'elite' as possible

[9/16/16, 7:43:35 PM] Hank: He is delaying the guild election thing

[9/16/16, 7:44:04 PM] Quill: I don't think so, to be honest  He's sleazy and dishonest, but I don't think he's wanting to kill anyone.  He wants witnesses.

[9/16/16, 7:45:02 PM] Josh: Taeral: "I agree with Quill.  What does an ambassador need with killing a city's higher-ups?"

[9/16/16, 7:45:44 PM] Rune: Probably nothing, but he could still be arranging something to embarrass us or William or the captain.

[9/16/16, 7:46:15 PM] Josh: Creed re-enters.  Alone.

[9/16/16, 7:46:33 PM] Creed: Creed looks for Argesh, and lets out a sigh when noting that he's gone.

[9/16/16, 7:46:43 PM] Quill: What was that about?

[9/16/16, 7:46:58 PM] Creed: "Black dragonborn female doesn't ring any bells?"

[9/16/16, 7:47:15 PM] Josh: Taeral: "I think I read that novel.  Very trashy."

[9/16/16, 7:47:16 PM] Quill: Oh, right, the bar.

[9/16/16, 7:47:17 PM] Rune: She was the one involved in the krrf.

[9/16/16, 7:47:24 PM] Quill: I never actually saw her.

[9/16/16, 7:47:42 PM] Quill: Just heard about it after the fact.

[9/16/16, 7:47:48 PM] Creed: "No, not the krrf."

[9/16/16, 7:48:08 PM] Quill: The drug deal thing.

[9/16/16, 7:48:43 PM] Creed: "Well, yes it was related to that."

[9/16/16, 7:49:26 PM] Creed: "It was at the inn where the krrf deal was happening but Black had more than just that."

[9/16/16, 7:49:46 PM] Quill: Was it the same woman?

[9/16/16, 7:50:03 PM] Creed: Creed looks to Hank

[9/16/16, 7:50:18 PM] Creed: "Yes, but I've let her off the hook because we have a deal at the moment."

[9/16/16, 7:50:38 PM] Rune: What deal?

[9/16/16, 7:51:20 PM] Creed: "Red Dragon Ruby for knowing where she put one of the eggs, which Black had."

[9/16/16, 7:52:10 PM] Creed: "I believe it was the one that Hank's color aligns with."

[9/16/16, 7:52:12 PM] Hank: And we are just making deals with a group that already conned us once why?

[9/16/16, 7:52:25 PM] Creed: "Because she was just working under a job."

[9/16/16, 7:52:37 PM] Creed: "We do the same thing."

[9/16/16, 7:52:58 PM] Creed: "Just under a different name."

[9/16/16, 7:52:59 PM] Quill: Let's head to the carriage.

[9/16/16, 7:53:44 PM] Hank: Under a different name and on other sides of that thing called the law, technically.

[9/16/16, 7:54:04 PM] Hank: And where are we heading then, what is next on the to do list?

[9/16/16, 7:54:41 PM] Creed: "Well, I need to go find a local jeweler, apparently."

[9/16/16, 7:54:58 PM] Quill: To get a ruby?

[9/16/16, 7:55:04 PM] Creed: "Yes."

[9/16/16, 7:55:18 PM] Creed: "Under legal reasons mind you, I do plan on buying it."

[9/16/16, 7:55:49 PM] Josh: Taeral: "I hate to bring this up, but I believe some of us also wanted to bring meat to our reptilian friend, down below."

[9/16/16, 7:55:51 PM] Rune: .... how much will that be?

[9/16/16, 7:56:03 PM] Creed: "We can do that as well."

[9/16/16, 7:56:06 PM] Quill: Hey, I didn't think you were going to steal it.  But rubies aren't cheap.

[9/16/16, 7:56:09 PM] Rune: And yes, we need to feed the dragon.

[9/16/16, 7:56:12 PM] Creed: "That's why I'm going to the jeweler, to find out the price."

[9/16/16, 7:56:57 PM] Creed: "We can go feed our lil dragon first, I don't mind what we do first."

[9/16/16, 7:57:18 PM] Creed: "I'm just letting you know I will need to visit the jeweler."

[9/16/16, 7:57:39 PM] Rune: All right. We'll stop by the butcher's.

[9/16/16, 7:57:43 PM] Rune: Rune wrinkles her nose.

[9/16/16, 7:57:55 PM] Rune: .... I don't suppose you could do it, Quill? I always get sick.

[9/16/16, 7:58:06 PM] Quill: Sure.

[9/16/16, 7:58:15 PM] Creed: "I can go with Quill."

[9/16/16, 7:58:19 PM] Quill: What are we getting him?

[9/16/16, 7:58:45 PM] Creed: "Why not ask your stone what their favorite kind of meat is?"

[9/16/16, 7:59:13 PM] Creed: "Aside from humans and likewise..."

[9/16/16, 8:00:44 PM] Quill: Oracle pretty much just tells stories.  And dragons pretty much just eat people and occasionally hero's mighty steeds in stories.

[9/16/16, 8:00:58 PM] Quill: Besides, I'm trying not to use it too much.

[9/16/16, 8:01:26 PM] Creed: "Aren't dragons known for eating cattle and sheep herds?"

[9/16/16, 8:01:33 PM] Rune: Well anything is probably better than rats in a sewer.

[9/16/16, 8:01:55 PM] Quill: I'm sure we can get a side of beef or two for him.

[9/16/16, 8:02:19 PM] Creed: "Mutton would probably work."

[9/16/16, 8:04:15 PM] Rune: Try some of each and see which he likes more?

[9/16/16, 8:04:32 PM] Josh: So, you guys go to find a butcher?

[9/16/16, 8:04:35 PM] Quill: Yep.

[9/16/16, 8:04:37 PM] Creed: Yeah.

[9/16/16, 8:04:42 PM] Josh: Ok.

[9/16/16, 8:04:45 PM] Quill: We'll see what the butcher has a better deal on, too.

[9/16/16, 8:05:09 PM] Rune: Rune knows where one is!

[9/16/16, 8:05:20 PM] Josh: Ok, we'll pick up here in a moment.

[9/16/16, 8:05:25 PM] Josh: I need to walk Gizmo.

[9/16/16, 8:05:28 PM] Creed: np

[9/16/16, 8:20:17 PM] Josh: Ok, so you guys head back to the Butcher Rune's been working with?

[9/16/16, 8:20:51 PM] Rune: Rune does!

[9/16/16, 8:21:05 PM] Quill: Yep!

[9/16/16, 8:21:17 PM] Josh: Ok.  And you guys by two sides of beef and...how much mutton?  Or do you get other stuff?

[9/16/16, 8:22:16 PM] Quill: ((Depends on what's cheaper!  And if we can make a deal since we'll likely be feeding this dragon for the foreseeable future.))

[9/16/16, 8:22:41 PM] Rune: Rune stays out of there, she's easily queased.

[9/16/16, 8:23:52 PM] Creed: I'd say about, 2-4 pieces of sizeable mutton.

[9/16/16, 8:24:55 PM] Josh: A serving of beef is roughly 5 silver (a serving, in this case, being about enough for three people, which you guess will feed the dragon.  An equivalent serving of mutton is 3 sp per serving.  If you're willing to buy the mutton in bulk, he'd be happy to sell you mutton of this amount each week for 2 sp.

[9/16/16, 8:25:14 PM] Josh: You also see a lot of other, more exotic kinds of meat which ranges in price.

[9/16/16, 8:25:30 PM] Creed: That would work.

[9/16/16, 8:26:10 PM] Josh: Ok, so you give him 2 sp.  He gives you a fair amount of mutton.  Like, enough for a couple dinners.

[9/16/16, 8:26:29 PM] Josh: Anything else you ask about before leaving, or is it straight to the dragon.

[9/16/16, 8:26:57 PM] Creed: How expensive is the most expensive one, and what kind is it?

[9/16/16, 8:27:30 PM] Josh: The most expensive appears to be Bulette meat.  It is this fat, nasty slab that costs 50 gp a serving.

[9/16/16, 8:27:38 PM] Quill: (Ick))

[9/16/16, 8:27:59 PM] Creed: (( Holy crap ))

[9/16/16, 8:28:14 PM] Creed: "What is this taken from?"

[9/16/16, 8:29:06 PM] Josh: "It comes from Bulettes, deep in the desert lands.  Dragonborn love the stuff.  A lot of Kumati humans use it to, I guess."

[9/16/16, 8:29:14 PM] Josh: The butcher is this big half-orc fella.

[9/16/16, 8:29:27 PM] Josh: "I always found it a little tough, myself."

[9/16/16, 8:29:38 PM] Josh: ((For the record, this is a bulette:))

[9/16/16, 8:30:09 PM] Creed: "Hmm, well we might come back eventually to see how it is, as a special treat."

[9/16/16, 8:30:20 PM] Josh: "Whatever."

[9/16/16, 8:30:29 PM] Quill: My aunts always ate it.

[9/16/16, 8:30:35 PM] Creed: "Did they?"

[9/16/16, 8:30:40 PM] Quill: It's tough.  and chewy.  And tastes like the earth.

[9/16/16, 8:30:47 PM] Creed: "You think he'd like it?"

[9/16/16, 8:30:59 PM] Quill: Drow in the Underdark raise them for meat.

[9/16/16, 8:31:10 PM] Quill: Um.  Maybe.  Theyre subterranean, right?

[9/16/16, 8:31:28 PM] Quill: Maybe next time.

[9/16/16, 8:31:31 PM] Quill: For a treat.

[9/16/16, 8:31:37 PM] Creed: "Like I said, as a special treat."

[9/16/16, 8:31:44 PM] Quill: I think we're good for now.

[9/16/16, 8:31:47 PM] Josh: ((They are subterranean, but they're not exactly native to Enora.  They're more a desert creature.))

[9/16/16, 8:32:08 PM] Creed: "Thank you, uhh.."

[9/16/16, 8:32:09 PM] Quill: ((Quill meant Black Dragons.))

[9/16/16, 8:32:11 PM] Creed: Creed looks for a name tag

[9/16/16, 8:32:15 PM] Josh: ((lol))

[9/16/16, 8:32:36 PM] Josh: "Hurak"

[9/16/16, 8:32:49 PM] Creed: "Hurak."

[9/16/16, 8:32:52 PM] Quill: Yeah, I didn't catch your name.  We're housemates of Rune.  Tall pretty tiefling girl?

[9/16/16, 8:33:02 PM] Creed: "The one with wings."

[9/16/16, 8:33:11 PM] Josh: ((She does not have wings))

[9/16/16, 8:33:17 PM] Josh: ((she just wants them))

[9/16/16, 8:33:20 PM] Creed: (( oh, I always thought she did, but she couldn't fly ))

[9/16/16, 8:33:26 PM] Creed: (( alright ))

[9/16/16, 8:33:30 PM] Josh: ((Nope.  No wings.))

[9/16/16, 8:33:34 PM] Creed: (( gotcha ))

[9/16/16, 8:33:57 PM] Josh: So, you guys head off to the Undercity?

[9/16/16, 8:34:15 PM] Quill: Yep, we collect teh others and load up the carriage with the meat.))

[9/16/16, 8:36:11 PM] Josh: Ok.  You guys get a special serving for 2 sp.  As you approach, you see two guards outside a newly constructed hole with some spell wardings that you basically know to be the equivalent of "DO NOT CROSS" tape.  When you ask, they say they're still taking the evidence out of the area and checking for stuff, but you may go through if you wish.

[9/16/16, 8:36:31 PM] Creed: We shall then.

[9/16/16, 8:37:00 PM] Josh: Ok.  You enter the new, much easier passage to the Undercity, and you find yourself in a familiar main chamber.

[9/16/16, 8:37:27 PM] Quill: I think we should set the meat down, and stay at a distance, but let the dragon see that we brought it.

[9/16/16, 8:37:40 PM] Creed: "Sounds good."

[9/16/16, 8:37:44 PM] Josh: Ethel: "That seems wise."

[9/16/16, 8:37:53 PM] Creed: "Oh, hi there."

[9/16/16, 8:37:55 PM] Josh: Looking over, you see the four women playing cards again.

[9/16/16, 8:38:06 PM] Quill: Ladies.

[9/16/16, 8:38:10 PM] Josh: Esther: "Hello, duckies.  Back for more, I see."

[9/16/16, 8:38:22 PM] Creed: "You said it wouldn't be easy, not impossible."

[9/16/16, 8:38:26 PM] Josh: Ethel: "OH!  I know you!  Nice young lad this one is."

[9/16/16, 8:38:45 PM] Josh: Ethel points to Quill.

[9/16/16, 8:39:23 PM] Quill: Quill smiles.  "Hey, maybe you can answer a question, ladies.  Is the dragon a boy or a girl?"

[9/16/16, 8:39:33 PM] Josh: Eva: "He is male."

[9/16/16, 8:39:54 PM] Rune: He should have a name. Maybe when he gets older he'll choose one if he hasn't got one already.

[9/16/16, 8:40:40 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Hrmph.  If it ever learns to talk.  Dumb dragon."

[9/16/16, 8:41:24 PM] Quill: Well, he's just a bit stunted, is all.

[9/16/16, 8:41:31 PM] Creed: "It will learn."

[9/16/16, 8:41:56 PM] Josh: Eva plays a card.  It reads "Broken One".

[9/16/16, 8:42:05 PM] Josh: Ethel: "Oh dear, that's not very good."

[9/16/16, 8:42:13 PM] Creed: "Hm?"

[9/16/16, 8:42:31 PM] Josh: Ethal: "I needed that for my match.  Now it's been discarded."

[9/16/16, 8:42:52 PM] Rune: ... I hope it's not referring to the dragon. It's only a child.

[9/16/16, 8:42:55 PM] Josh: Esther: "You're not supposed to say that, dearie.  You need your cards to be secret."

[9/16/16, 8:44:09 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Hrmph.  you can't need that anyway.  Thirty years, and you still don't know how to play."

[9/16/16, 8:44:37 PM] Quill: Where did you last see him, then?

[9/16/16, 8:45:08 PM] Josh: Eva: "Three chambers down that way.  You'll find his pool before then, though.  He'll be there again, eventually."

[9/16/16, 8:45:37 PM] Quill: So we should leave the food near the pool.

[9/16/16, 8:45:43 PM] Creed: "We could bring it to him."

[9/16/16, 8:45:53 PM] Rune: I think we should say hello at least.

[9/16/16, 8:45:55 PM] Creed: "Otherwise he wouldn't know who brought it to him."

[9/16/16, 8:46:02 PM] Rune: To help him get accustomed to people.

[9/16/16, 8:46:05 PM] Creed: "We cant earn his trust if he doesn't know who brings it."

[9/16/16, 8:46:27 PM] Quill: I know, I meant, we should wait near the pool instead of trying to find him.

[9/16/16, 8:46:42 PM] Rune: Oh, that's a good idea. Just... don't anybody fall in.

[9/16/16, 8:46:54 PM] Josh: Eva: "No.  That would be bad for your skin."

[9/16/16, 8:47:08 PM] Creed: "That would be very bad."

[9/16/16, 8:47:27 PM] Josh: Edwina discards a card.  "Dictator".

[9/16/16, 8:47:36 PM] Hank: I will wait here, I have no urge to see the dragon again right now.

[9/16/16, 8:47:58 PM] Quill: All right.  But if you hear us screaming, come and rescue us.

[9/16/16, 8:48:05 PM] Josh: Ethel: "Oh, would you like to join us, then?  This game's almost done, I think."

[9/16/16, 8:48:34 PM] Creed: "When we come back I would like to."

[9/16/16, 8:49:47 PM] Josh: Sorry, got disconnected for a moment.

[9/16/16, 8:49:48 PM] Hank: I will if you tell me how to play, yes quill if you give a shout I will come to help.

[9/16/16, 8:50:00 PM] Creed: (( np ))

[9/16/16, 8:50:09 PM] Quill: Quill nods.

[9/16/16, 8:50:49 PM] Josh: Ok, so most of you run off, except for Hank.  Can I get survival checks from everyone but Hank?

[9/16/16, 8:53:26 PM] Josh: Creed and Rune almost get lost, instantly.  The rooms seem familiar, but not in the right order.  Thankfully, Quill is able to keep you on track.  He remembers the directions.

[9/16/16, 8:54:04 PM] Creed: (( -insert racist drow joke here- ))

[9/16/16, 8:54:33 PM] Quill: I went through here in two seperate dimensions, basically.

[9/16/16, 8:54:43 PM] Josh: You eventually see a green light around a corner.

[9/16/16, 8:54:50 PM] Creed: "No wonder you can keep up with it."

[9/16/16, 8:54:56 PM] Rune: ... are you sure this is the right... oh, that must be the pool.

[9/16/16, 8:55:25 PM] Josh: As you turn, you do find the pool, giving off a very eery green glow.

[9/16/16, 8:55:57 PM] Creed: Creed holds a slab of meat

[9/16/16, 8:56:14 PM] Josh: The meat feels wet and gross in your hand.

[9/16/16, 8:56:20 PM] Creed: "Nasty."

[9/16/16, 8:56:27 PM] Rune: Rune stays well away from the pool.

[9/16/16, 8:56:58 PM] Creed: Creed stands at the doorway, back to the wall

[9/16/16, 8:57:48 PM] Josh: You do not see the dragon nearby.

[9/16/16, 8:57:54 PM] Quill: Yep, away from the pool.  And I assume the meat is wrapped in butcher paper.  And I'v been carrying it with an Unseen Servant anyway.

[9/16/16, 8:58:07 PM] Creed: (( fair enough~ ))

[9/16/16, 9:00:18 PM] Rune: What sort of deal did you make with the dragonborn girl, Creed? I recognized her too. ... and she's quite lucky I didn't kill her.

[9/16/16, 9:00:48 PM] Creed: "Like I said, once I get a red dragon ruby she'll tell me more about what she did with the egg that goes to Hank."

[9/16/16, 9:01:44 PM] Creed: "It just happened to work out that way, is all."

[9/16/16, 9:01:44 PM] Rune: That's all? ... I wonder if she's Argesh's or if she really is Rosa's.

[9/16/16, 9:01:52 PM] Creed: "She's neither."

[9/16/16, 9:01:54 PM] Quill: That's awfully specific  Why does she want a ruby?

[9/16/16, 9:02:02 PM] Creed: "Because it's pretty, she said."

[9/16/16, 9:02:20 PM] Creed: "She's just laying off the heat in plain sight."

[9/16/16, 9:03:24 PM] Josh: You hear a low grumble.

[9/16/16, 9:03:44 PM] Creed: perception to hear where it's coming from?

[9/16/16, 9:04:06 PM] Creed: (( 23 ))

[9/16/16, 9:04:30 PM] Josh: It sounds like it's coming from the other end of the pool.

[9/16/16, 9:04:43 PM] Josh: In addition to the growl, you also hear a dragging sound.

[9/16/16, 9:04:43 PM] Quill: Quill looks around for him.

[9/16/16, 9:05:08 PM] Creed: "Probably got in another fight."

[9/16/16, 9:06:19 PM] Josh: You see the dragon round the corner, a large, dead hairy creature is dragged behind it.  It looks like a massive rat with spines coming out it's back.  The dragon has it by the tail.

[9/16/16, 9:06:44 PM] Creed: "So there are mutated creatures down here."

[9/16/16, 9:07:01 PM] Rune: It looks like a porcupine.

[9/16/16, 9:07:22 PM] Josh: ((You guys recognize it as a dire rat))

[9/16/16, 9:07:33 PM] Creed: "Still just as gross."

[9/16/16, 9:07:39 PM] Quill: That can't be easy to eat.

[9/16/16, 9:07:47 PM] Rune: Are there dire porcupines?

[9/16/16, 9:08:01 PM] Creed: "There are dire bears, I wouldn't doubt it."

[9/16/16, 9:08:07 PM] Rune: Hello, er.... dragon?

[9/16/16, 9:08:36 PM] Rune: Rune keeps her hands out and obviously empty and waves at the dragon.

[9/16/16, 9:09:10 PM] Josh: The dragon's head snaps up at you.  It gets between you and the rat and growls, defensively.

[9/16/16, 9:09:24 PM] Quill: Quill floats one of the sides of beef over toward him.

[9/16/16, 9:09:49 PM] Rune: Oh, I don't want any dire ratupine, thank you. Also we brought some other food, if you want that too.

[9/16/16, 9:10:09 PM] Josh: Do you lay out the meat?

[9/16/16, 9:11:30 PM] Creed: This message has been removed.

[9/16/16, 9:11:35 PM] Quill: I set it down in front of him.

[9/16/16, 9:12:25 PM] Josh: The dragons stops growling, and tries to sniff it from there.

[9/16/16, 9:12:28 PM] Rune: I don't know how much Common you speak, but we just came to visit, and to say hello.

[9/16/16, 9:13:22 PM] Quill: I don't move it anymore, I just let it sit there and let him go at it in his own time.

[9/16/16, 9:15:36 PM] Josh: The dragon cocks his head to the side and wades into the pool.

[9/16/16, 9:17:00 PM] Creed: Creed sits on the floor, still at the doorway

[9/16/16, 9:17:09 PM] Josh: He slowly swims over, keeping his eyes ever on you.

[9/16/16, 9:19:04 PM] Creed: Creed continues to watch the dragon, showing no means of moving any time soon.

[9/16/16, 9:19:17 PM] Josh: The dragon comes out the other side.

[9/16/16, 9:19:24 PM] Josh: He is covered in liquid death.

[9/16/16, 9:19:41 PM] Rune: We were a little bit worried about you, down here by yourself. I mean, the ladies know you're all right, but we almost hurt you ourselves just because we didn't know better.

[9/16/16, 9:20:32 PM] Creed: "We're just here to take care of you."

[9/16/16, 9:20:57 PM] Josh: He walks over and sniffs the meat.

[9/16/16, 9:21:22 PM] Josh: He opens his mouth and pulls the whole...roughly 1.5 to 2 pounds of meat into his mouth.

[9/16/16, 9:21:33 PM] Josh: He then turns and goes back to swim across again.

[9/16/16, 9:21:44 PM] Quill: Good stuff, right?

[9/16/16, 9:21:59 PM] Quill: Quill floats more over, putting it in the same spot.

[9/16/16, 9:22:34 PM] Josh: The dragon looks back from the other side.

[9/16/16, 9:22:52 PM] Josh: He spits out the meat, which now looks a bit cooked on the outside from the acid.

[9/16/16, 9:22:59 PM] Josh: He heads back over.

[9/16/16, 9:23:04 PM] Creed: "Cute."

[9/16/16, 9:23:10 PM] Rune: Oh, he's cooking it. Or preserving it.

[9/16/16, 9:23:20 PM] Quill: Oh, that makes sense.

[9/16/16, 9:23:29 PM] Creed: "Probably being cooked by the acid he naturally exudes."

[9/16/16, 9:23:46 PM] Creed: "Wonder if he'd like spices on top..?"

[9/16/16, 9:24:13 PM] Josh: He grabs the rest in his mouth when he comes back across.

[9/16/16, 9:25:02 PM] Josh: He then swims it back across.

[9/16/16, 9:25:21 PM] Creed: "Enjoy your meal, we'll come back around again."

[9/16/16, 9:26:21 PM] Rune: Shouldn't we... well. I mean, he's covered in acid but that doesn't necessarily mean...

[9/16/16, 9:26:46 PM] Creed: "Not a good idea, at the moment."

[9/16/16, 9:27:24 PM] Quill: Yeah.  This is a good start, but we shouldn't push it too far too fast.

[9/16/16, 9:27:47 PM] Quill: Maybe next time when we come back with food we can get closer.

[9/16/16, 9:28:05 PM] Creed: "I wouldn't jump the distance next time either, it takes patience."

[9/16/16, 9:28:31 PM] Quill: Well, I'm thinking next time he'll come closer to us.

[9/16/16, 9:28:32 PM] Rune: I know, it's just... well, he's probably lonely, that's all.

[9/16/16, 9:28:46 PM] Rune: They're supposed to be raised in a group of usually more than one.

[9/16/16, 9:29:15 PM] Quill: He has to learn that everyone isnt going to try to hurt him first.

[9/16/16, 9:29:18 PM] Creed: "He's probably been at it for who knows how long, it could be different to him."

[9/16/16, 9:29:26 PM] Josh: When he gets to the other side, he shakes off the acid from his body.

[9/16/16, 9:30:15 PM] Creed: Creed stands up

[9/16/16, 9:30:20 PM] Creed: "We can head out now."

[9/16/16, 9:31:24 PM] Rune: Rune nods.

[9/16/16, 9:31:27 PM] Rune: All right.

[9/16/16, 9:31:33 PM] Rune: Rune waves at him.

[9/16/16, 9:31:42 PM] Rune: Goodbye! We'll come by again. Be careful down here.

[9/16/16, 9:31:56 PM] Quill: Quill smiles, and leaves.  "See you soon."

[9/16/16, 9:32:17 PM] Josh: Ok, you guys head back.  One more survival check, please.

[9/16/16, 9:32:38 PM] Creed: oh god

[9/16/16, 9:33:06 PM] Creed: (( the creed you all know is back in business ))

[9/16/16, 9:34:06 PM] Quill: Creed?  This way.

[9/16/16, 9:34:25 PM] Rune: It's starting to look a little familiar, at least...

[9/16/16, 9:34:26 PM] Josh: Rune and Quill masterfully guide their way back.  Despite Creed constantly going down the wrong passage.

[9/16/16, 9:34:39 PM] Creed: "Could've sworn it was that way.."

[9/16/16, 9:34:48 PM] Josh: As you return, Edwina is gloating over her win as Hank returns Eva her seat.

[9/16/16, 9:35:10 PM] Creed: "How did it go, Hank?"

[9/16/16, 9:35:17 PM] Josh: Eva: "He played well for his first time."

[9/16/16, 9:35:36 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Hrmph.  Not well enough."

[9/16/16, 9:36:19 PM] Hank: No it is  a very intricate game and cards are not my strong suit.

[9/16/16, 9:36:26 PM] Rune: I don't think most people are good at things on their first try.

[9/16/16, 9:36:28 PM] Creed: "Can I play?"

[9/16/16, 9:36:39 PM] Creed: "I beat Death at chess, maybe I can do well on this as well?"

[9/16/16, 9:37:19 PM] Josh: Eva: "Chess is a very different game.  But you may take my seat, if you wish."

[9/16/16, 9:37:28 PM] Creed: "If you don't mind."

[9/16/16, 9:37:41 PM] Josh: Eva stands up.

[9/16/16, 9:37:57 PM] Creed: Creed takes her place

[9/16/16, 9:38:48 PM] Rune: I can't remember, did I have any other errands to run?

[9/16/16, 9:38:57 PM] Quill: I don't think so.

[9/16/16, 9:39:07 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Hrmph.  Does this mean we're not gambling, again?"

[9/16/16, 9:39:18 PM] Hank: I wanted to pick up some wood but that can be done quickly.

[9/16/16, 9:39:39 PM] Hank: And creed wanted to see a jeweler I thought?

[9/16/16, 9:39:49 PM] Creed: "I'm in no rush."

[9/16/16, 9:40:21 PM] Rune: Wood? Oh, yes, of course. ... and by the way, I signed William's parchment paper. Just to warn you all. I thought it might be good to get backup in a crisis.

[9/16/16, 9:41:06 PM] Rune: ... and I need a book on dragonrearing.

[9/16/16, 9:41:28 PM] Josh: Esther: "Hrmph.  I don't think it's fair to bet with the new one, Edwina."

[9/16/16, 9:41:40 PM] Josh: Esther: "We'll just play a hand like we did with the boy."

[9/16/16, 9:41:53 PM] Hank: So we are back where we started except now William wants us to bring Belza  to the tree, so we gained nothing.

[9/16/16, 9:43:37 PM] Rune: Well, that's not true. We've found out about the captain's brother's death, we negotiated a very important equipment upgrade and salary with William and we fed our dragon friend.

[9/16/16, 9:43:46 PM] Quill: I don't think we were out to gain anything.

[9/16/16, 9:44:48 PM] Josh: The old women deal out cards and deal for Creed too.

Edwina: "Hrmph.  Are you playing or not?"

[9/16/16, 9:46:17 PM] Josh: Taeral: "Hank, I don't think Rune meant to make your deal...meaningless.  It just...might be useful."

[9/16/16, 9:46:35 PM] Rune: ... if we're all killed I want someone to tell my grandmother what happened to me.

[9/16/16, 9:47:50 PM] Hank: Just get used to the feeling of never knowing if someone is watching. Trust me it wears on you.

[9/16/16, 9:48:08 PM] Rune: Rune nods.

[9/16/16, 9:48:10 PM] Rune: I understand.

[9/16/16, 9:48:32 PM] Hank: Also if we are looking for strange books Belkar had an eclectic collection it seemed.

[9/16/16, 9:49:16 PM] Josh: Taeral: "Actually, I had a thought about that...if we can talk about it at another time...in private."

[9/16/16, 9:49:44 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Hrmph.  The game is still going on you know."

[9/16/16, 9:49:56 PM] Josh: Esther: "Edwina, shut up.  This is clearly important."

[9/16/16, 9:50:43 PM] Rune: You and Hank, you mean?

[9/16/16, 9:50:51 PM] Quill: About scrying?

[9/16/16, 9:51:03 PM] Josh: Taeral: "No...I meant all of us...away from...other parties."

[9/16/16, 9:51:51 PM] Josh: Ethel: "...does he mean us?"

Edwina: "Hrmph.  Who cares?  Stupid hero talk."

[9/16/16, 9:52:11 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Here my luck is running out and they wanna discuss papers and books."

[9/16/16, 9:52:53 PM] Rune: Taeral is a hero.

[9/16/16, 9:53:30 PM] Josh: Edwina: "Hrmph.  Heroes.  They're just people.  In a few millenia, no one will care."

[9/16/16, 9:53:38 PM] Josh: Eva shushes her.

[9/16/16, 9:53:59 PM] Josh: For the first time, Edwina seems to actually not wanna talk anymore.

[9/16/16, 9:54:19 PM] Quill: Hmph.  Not if I have anything to say about it.

[9/16/16, 9:54:59 PM] Rune: Are you going to write a song about Taeral?

[9/16/16, 9:56:22 PM] Josh: Eva begins to pick the cards back up.

[9/16/16, 9:56:25 PM] Quill: All of us.

[9/16/16, 9:56:47 PM] Creed: "We're not playing?"

[9/16/16, 9:57:10 PM] Josh: Eva: "Not tonight.  Come back tomorrow.  I will teach all of you."

[9/16/16, 9:57:25 PM] Rune: I'd like that. Are you sure it's all right?

[9/16/16, 9:57:37 PM] Creed: "Alright, off we go to the jeweler then? Or the woodsman?"

[9/16/16, 9:57:51 PM] Rune: Why do we need to see the woodsman?

[9/16/16, 9:58:04 PM] Creed: "For hank's wood."

[9/16/16, 9:58:06 PM] Josh: Eva holds out a hand and stops Creed.

[9/16/16, 9:58:13 PM] Rune: ((NO COMMENT.))

[9/16/16, 9:58:16 PM] Creed: "Hmm?"

[9/16/16, 9:58:18 PM] Creed: (( lmao ))

[9/16/16, 9:58:21 PM] Rune: Yes, but what's he need it for?

[9/16/16, 9:58:49 PM] Josh: She reaches into her cloak and pulls out a black feather, a black scale, a black coin, and a black rock.

[9/16/16, 9:58:55 PM] Josh: Eva: "One for each of you."

[9/16/16, 9:59:14 PM] Creed: "I'll.. keep the scale."

[9/16/16, 9:59:18 PM] Josh: On 9/16/16, at 9:58 PM, Rune wrote:

> ((NO COMMENT.))

((Lol))

[9/16/16, 9:59:24 PM] Josh: Eva nods.

[9/16/16, 9:59:41 PM] Josh: She gives Creed the scale and holds out the rest for all of you.

[9/16/16, 10:00:00 PM] Rune: Rune takes the feather.

[9/16/16, 10:00:20 PM] Hank: Hank takes the rock

[9/16/16, 10:00:27 PM] Quill: Quill takes the coin.

[9/16/16, 10:00:47 PM] Creed: (( hank, looking for wood, picks up rocks ))

[9/16/16, 10:00:49 PM] Quill: ...thank you.

[9/16/16, 10:01:04 PM] Rune: Yes.

[9/16/16, 10:01:04 PM] Josh: Eva: "We are what we choose to be."

[9/16/16, 10:01:14 PM] Josh: Eva: "As much as what we are made to be."

[9/16/16, 10:02:01 PM] Rune: I hope so.

[9/16/16, 10:02:32 PM] Josh: Eva: "You'll need to go north for wood.  You should leave now.  Or they will close before you get there."

[9/16/16, 10:03:11 PM] Josh: Eva turns to Hank.  "You can get there faster."

[9/16/16, 10:03:48 PM] Rune: Oh, his starry horse. ... Hank's a starry knight.

[9/16/16, 10:03:58 PM] Josh: Eva: "Yes."

[9/16/16, 10:04:12 PM] Rune: ... wood first, then.

[9/16/16, 10:04:23 PM] Josh: Eva: "Yes."

[9/16/16, 10:04:26 PM] Rune: Or... perhaps we ought to split up.

[9/16/16, 10:04:31 PM] Creed: "I can head over to the jeweler then, I have no idea what time they close."

[9/16/16, 10:04:50 PM] Rune: I'll go with Hank, then, and you can take Quill to get a better price. I'm not much at bargaining.

[9/16/16, 10:05:12 PM] Josh: Eva turns to Creed.  "I hope you are not too upset.  We shall meet again, tomorrow."

[9/16/16, 10:05:14 PM] Quill: Quill is inspecting the black coin, looking for symbols or marks on it.

[9/16/16, 10:05:56 PM] Creed: "It's no problem, as I've said before, I'm in no rush. We can always play later."

[9/16/16, 10:06:27 PM] Josh: Eva nods, and she begins to glide away.

[9/16/16, 10:06:34 PM] Josh: The other women just sit there.

[9/16/16, 10:06:59 PM] Creed: Creed gives the others a little wave

[9/16/16, 10:07:02 PM] Rune: Rune sticks with Hank. "All right. Out and then whichever way is north. You've lived here longer than I have.

[9/16/16, 10:07:06 PM] Rune: Rune waves back.

[9/16/16, 10:07:38 PM] Josh: Ok, are you splitting up, two to the jeweler, two to the woodsman, or are you all gonna make for the woodsman?

[9/16/16, 10:07:43 PM] Hank: Hank gives quill the scrying parchment before we split up.

[9/16/16, 10:07:44 PM] Quill: Quill waves.  "Okay, see you back at home, I guess?"

[9/16/16, 10:08:23 PM] Rune: Yes! Make sure Max is there if you get there first!

[9/16/16, 10:08:28 PM] Josh: ((Which scrying parchment?  Hank's one?))

[9/16/16, 10:08:48 PM] Hank: ((Yes it is the only one I have.))

[9/16/16, 10:08:54 PM] Josh: ((Ok))

[9/16/16, 10:09:10 PM] Quill: ...what's this for?

[9/16/16, 10:10:36 PM] Hank: If we are delayed, or you think something might have happened , you can at least check on us visually.

[9/16/16, 10:11:37 PM] Josh: Ok, so, how is everyone getting where they're getting?  I assume Hank and Rune are taking Kai.  Quill, are you using the carriage, or is Creed?

[9/16/16, 10:11:53 PM] Quill: Yeah, I'll drive.

[9/16/16, 10:12:02 PM] Josh: Ok.

[9/16/16, 10:12:09 PM] Quill: Quill nods at Hank.  "Sounds like a plan."

[9/16/16, 10:13:16 PM] Josh: Ok, you guys exit the undercity and you see it's actually gotten pretty late in the day.  About 4-ish, maybe later.

[9/16/16, 10:13:45 PM] Josh: Creed, you run off towards a more high-end part of town.  You imagine the slummy outer ring won't have a jeweler.

[9/16/16, 10:14:00 PM] Creed: I would have to agree as a player.

[9/16/16, 10:14:30 PM] Josh: Hank, you and Rune get on Kai.  Kai seems a little less than happy about the additional person, but he's a trooper, he's got you both.

[9/16/16, 10:14:41 PM] Rune: Rune holds onto Hank unbelievably tightly on the horse.

[9/16/16, 10:14:56 PM] Josh: And Quill, you've done all you needed to, you start to Clip and Clop back.  (See what I did there?))

[9/16/16, 10:15:21 PM] Quill: ((I was going with Creed.))

[9/16/16, 10:15:24 PM] Quill: ((I thought.))

[9/16/16, 10:15:26 PM] Josh: Oh.

[9/16/16, 10:15:28 PM] Josh: Nevermind then.

[9/16/16, 10:15:37 PM] Josh: Creed, you get in the carriage with Quill.

[9/16/16, 10:15:44 PM] Josh: This makes my life much easier.

[9/16/16, 11:00:26 PM] Josh: So, overtime, you all make it back.

[9/16/16, 11:00:46 PM] Quill: Still not entirely sure what you hope to accomplish, Creed.

[9/16/16, 11:01:03 PM] Creed: "I promised her gems and that's what she's going to get!"

[9/16/16, 11:01:13 PM] Creed: "I don't always go against my word you know.."

[9/16/16, 11:01:21 PM] Josh: Quill and Creed get there first, and, as you are putting the carriage back WHOOSH!  Kai swoops in, the others on his back, large black wings shooting out of his sides.

[9/16/16, 11:01:36 PM] Creed: "...Pegasus?"

[9/16/16, 11:01:44 PM] Quill: Yeah, I get that.  I just don't think she'll keep her end of the deal-- oh, that's pretty cool.

[9/16/16, 11:01:52 PM] Rune: It flies!

[9/16/16, 11:02:07 PM] Josh: The wings vanish as he lands, in a cloud of fairy dust.

[9/16/16, 11:02:09 PM] Quill: Hmf.  I should have been a paladin.

[9/16/16, 11:02:27 PM] Creed: "Yeah well, not everyone gets to choose."

[9/16/16, 11:03:14 PM] Josh: Gerald comes running out the back door.  His feathers are a mess, his face a portrait of worry and anguish.

[9/16/16, 11:03:22 PM] Quill: What's wrong?

[9/16/16, 11:03:33 PM] Josh: Gerald: "Oh thank the gods you're back!  It's terrible!  The boy...we can't find him!"

[9/16/16, 11:03:46 PM] Quill: Max?

[9/16/16, 11:03:47 PM] Rune: ... bother.

[9/16/16, 11:03:52 PM] Creed: "Of course."

[9/16/16, 11:03:52 PM] Hank: When did you last see him?

[9/16/16, 11:03:57 PM] Rune: I can't believe it, he did take him.

[9/16/16, 11:04:14 PM] Creed: "Who?"

[9/16/16, 11:04:21 PM] Josh: Gerald: "He, he was in that main hall area, playing with one of my brothers, I turn my back, and when I came back, they were both gone!"

[9/16/16, 11:04:21 PM] Quill: That Witch Hunter asshole?

[9/16/16, 11:04:30 PM] Creed: "I wasn't there for that."

[9/16/16, 11:05:09 PM] Rune: Well, it was a bit too much of a coincidence that we tell him about Max and then Max disappears.

[9/16/16, 11:05:25 PM] Creed: "Then why take Max and Gerald's brother?"

[9/16/16, 11:05:26 PM] Quill: Quill goes inside, to check the door down to the hellmouth.

[9/16/16, 11:05:38 PM] Creed: Creed will follow

[9/16/16, 11:05:41 PM] Josh: The door to the hellmouth is open.

[9/16/16, 11:05:45 PM] Rune: No witnesses.

[9/16/16, 11:06:04 PM] Quill: This was locked when we left, right?

[9/16/16, 11:06:10 PM] Rune: ... I thought we started keeping the basement locked.

[9/16/16, 11:06:11 PM] Creed: "I never locked it."

[9/16/16, 11:06:24 PM] Quill: At least, closed, right?

[9/16/16, 11:06:50 PM] Creed: "I keep it closed when I leave, normally."

[9/16/16, 11:06:55 PM] Creed: "Last time I was teleported."

[9/16/16, 11:07:06 PM] Quill: Quill goes downstairs.

[9/16/16, 11:07:23 PM] Rune: Rune follows him.

[9/16/16, 11:07:28 PM] Creed: Creed tags along

[9/16/16, 11:07:30 PM] Hank: Hank follows

[9/16/16, 11:07:32 PM] Josh: Downstairs, the room is empty, save for the hellmouth...and one of Max's shoes.

[9/16/16, 11:07:38 PM] Creed: "Of course he did."

[9/16/16, 11:07:38 PM] Rune: I told him about Max because I didn't think he could possibly be stupid enough to ...

[9/16/16, 11:07:46 PM] Rune: Bother.

[9/16/16, 11:07:49 PM] Creed: Creed walks into the hellmouth, grumbling to herself

[9/16/16, 11:08:06 PM] Josh: Creed disappears into the hellmouth.

[9/16/16, 11:08:22 PM] Rune: Rune follows her.

[9/16/16, 11:08:33 PM] Quill: Quill goes.

[9/16/16, 11:08:37 PM] Hank: Hank walks in as well.

[9/16/16, 11:08:41 PM] Josh: You all walk in.

[9/16/16, 11:08:48 PM] Josh: ...and we'll pick this up next week.
