[7/15/16, 8:13:03 PM] Your Grand High DM: Ok, so the two of you head off.

[7/15/16, 8:13:21 PM] Quill: YEah, to the Green Dragon.

[7/15/16, 8:13:59 PM] Nilani: Nilani scampers along behind.

[7/15/16, 8:15:14 PM] Quill: Lyv might be a bit pissed off, but that'll be a good object lesson.

[7/15/16, 8:16:00 PM] Your Grand High DM: You arrive at the tavern.

[7/15/16, 8:16:19 PM] Quill: Quill looks around.  Is it busy right now?

[7/15/16, 8:16:28 PM] Your Grand High DM: It's basically empty, save for the bartender at the counter.

[7/15/16, 8:16:41 PM] Your Grand High DM: A couple of figures are drinking at a table to the side.

[7/15/16, 8:17:04 PM] Your Grand High DM: They look very sad.

[7/15/16, 8:17:18 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "So, what will ya be having then?"

[7/15/16, 8:18:05 PM] Quill: Just some ale, fella.  Say, what kind of entertainment do you have here?

[7/15/16, 8:18:30 PM] Nilani: Nilani sits under whichever stool. chair, or other sitting apparatus Quill chooses.

[7/15/16, 8:19:09 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender points around the room.  "What you see right now."

[7/15/16, 8:20:29 PM] Quill: How about the evenings?

[7/15/16, 8:21:23 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Place gets a bit livlier.  Most folks bring their own entertainment, though."

[7/15/16, 8:22:33 PM] Quill: I'm looking for a place to play tonight.  Think I could set up here?

[7/15/16, 8:23:18 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "I can't offer you anything.  All my money's going to fix my roof.  You may have noticed the...issue on the second floor."

[7/15/16, 8:24:05 PM] Quill: Oh, all I require from you is a spot to play in.

[7/15/16, 8:24:17 PM] Quill: What happened to the roof, anyway?

[7/15/16, 8:25:57 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Let's just say one of my last tennants had a real bad night."

[7/15/16, 8:26:15 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "You can set up over by those tables if you want."

[7/15/16, 8:26:42 PM] Quill: Hmm, you got any rooms left up there?

[7/15/16, 8:27:46 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Three.  Two are taken for tonight.  You can have the last one."

[7/15/16, 8:28:00 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "It's three gold a night, plus a two gold deposit."

[7/15/16, 8:28:17 PM] Quill: Understandable, after what happened.

[7/15/16, 8:28:49 PM] Quill: Quill puts 5g on the counter, plus enough to cover the drink.  "I'll take it."

[7/15/16, 8:29:18 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender takes the gold and hands you a ledger and quill.

[7/15/16, 8:30:27 PM] Quill: Quill signs in under the name Favren Windtree.

[7/15/16, 8:31:35 PM] Nilani: Nilani looks around for signs of mice.

[7/15/16, 8:32:22 PM] Your Grand High DM: You see two names in there.  Ark Keeling and Sam Tempest.

[7/15/16, 8:32:34 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Right, Mr. Windtree."

[7/15/16, 8:32:43 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "You play under a different name?"

[7/15/16, 8:33:37 PM] Quill: Just Windtree.  Figure it sounds nice and comfortably elfy.  I'm just trying to make a name for myself.

[7/15/16, 8:36:21 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Right, got it.  You don't play any of that Rock stuff that's catching on, do ya?"

[7/15/16, 8:36:35 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Don't want it scaring away my customers."

[7/15/16, 8:37:44 PM] Quill: Oh no sir.  I got some good dwarf drinking songs, some elven stuff.  Nothing to set your patrons ill at ease.  Which room is mine?

[7/15/16, 8:38:02 PM] Your Grand High DM: Roll perception, real quick.

[7/15/16, 8:38:11 PM] Nilani: [both of us?]

[7/15/16, 8:38:17 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "You'll be in room three"

[7/15/16, 8:38:19 PM] Your Grand High DM: Yeah, sure.

[7/15/16, 8:38:21 PM] Quill: ((12))

[7/15/16, 8:38:55 PM] Nilani: [8]

[7/15/16, 8:39:30 PM] Your Grand High DM: A small halfling or dwarfish gentleman shuffles through the door and up the stairs.

[7/15/16, 8:39:50 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "It'll be first on the left.  The one not boarded up."

[7/15/16, 8:40:32 PM] Quill: Thank you, sir.

[7/15/16, 8:40:38 PM] Quill: Quill finishes off his drink and heads up the stairs.

[7/15/16, 8:41:11 PM] Nilani: Nilani pads around the main room for a bit, then follows.

[7/15/16, 8:41:32 PM] Your Grand High DM: Bartender: "Keep the cat off the bed!"

[7/15/16, 8:41:57 PM] Quill: Quill nods, and goes up!

[7/15/16, 8:42:34 PM] Your Grand High DM: Upstairs you see four doors, one, Taeral's, is all boarded up.

[7/15/16, 8:43:50 PM] Quill: Quill looks around.  Are we alone up here in the hall?

[7/15/16, 8:51:29 PM] Quill: Quill goes over to the door that is my room.

[7/15/16, 8:51:42 PM] Your Grand High DM: Sorry, yes you are alone.

[7/15/16, 8:51:54 PM] Your Grand High DM: You were given a key.  It fits the lock.

[7/15/16, 8:52:04 PM] Your Grand High DM: The room itself is fairly small and bare, save a bed and a desk.

[7/15/16, 8:52:21 PM] Quill: Okay.  Does it share a wall with any of the other two intact rooms?

[7/15/16, 8:52:32 PM] Your Grand High DM: No, sadly.

[7/15/16, 8:54:50 PM] Quill: Quill goes back out to the hall, and just listens for a moment, since the bar downstairs is pretty quiet.  Can I strain to hear any voices?

[7/15/16, 8:55:40 PM] Your Grand High DM: You do.  They are coming from room 2, across from Taeral's old room.

[7/15/16, 8:56:10 PM] Quill: Can I make out any words?

[7/15/16, 8:57:14 PM] Your Grand High DM: Do you get close to the door?

[7/15/16, 8:57:55 PM] Quill: Quill looks down at Anna and nods toward the door, then his ear, then points at the door.

[7/15/16, 8:59:37 PM] Nilani: Nilani sits near the door, trying to listen to what's going on in there.

[7/15/16, 9:01:01 PM] Your Grand High DM: Roll perception, Anna.  Also Stealth, with advantage.  Because cat.

[7/15/16, 9:02:01 PM] Nilani: [P: 13 S: 16]

[7/15/16, 9:07:45 PM] Quill: Quill lets her listen for a few  moments before making for the stairs.

[7/15/16, 9:10:47 PM] Your Grand High DM: Ok, so, you make for the stairs

[7/15/16, 9:10:56 PM] Nilani: Nilani gets up after a bit and follows.

[7/15/16, 9:11:29 PM] Your Grand High DM: Do you guys go home, or is there anything else you'd like to do while out?

[7/15/16, 9:12:40 PM] Nilani: [not particularly.]

[7/15/16, 9:12:56 PM] Quill: Quill leaves the bar, waving to the bartender and telling him I'll be back later that evening, then heads out.  Once they're a block away, he'll look at Anna.  "Hear anything?"

[7/15/16, 9:13:29 PM] Nilani: Nilani makes sure she's out of view of the bar, and shifts back.

[7/15/16, 9:14:34 PM] Nilani: It seems that one person was trying to instruct another person on how to speak, probably pertaining to the later incident.

[7/15/16, 9:15:18 PM] Quill: So that was... room 1?

[7/15/16, 9:15:25 PM] Your Grand High DM: ((2))

[7/15/16, 9:15:31 PM] Your Grand High DM: ((Taeral's is Room 1))

[7/15/16, 9:15:33 PM] Nilani: Second one.

[7/15/16, 9:16:00 PM] Quill: Okay.  Good.  Let's head back and tell the others.

[7/15/16, 9:16:09 PM] Nilani: Indeed.
