DM

Alagar turns his head, eyes not blinking, to the dragonborn. "We hear that he has been seen in the Evermoors chasing giants there."

Zhu


She nods. "Not out of our way then." She adds. She looks to the others. "Do we have aught else to discuss?"

(OOC - Just trying to move things along.)

Kriv

Satisfied with the utility of what they had learned, Kriv glanced at the others.

Aubric

"Any others in your ... alliance, or other contacts that our hosts can give us?" the cleric directs to Kriv, although the intent to ask the others is clear.

DM

Cryxlaw turn to Aubric. "There is no alliance. You benefit from our knowledge and our selfish desire to remove a nuisance."

Then, together, he and Algar say simultaneously, "Amrath will show you out. You may collect your weapons on the way."

That seems to be the end of the conversation as they both glare at you coldly.

(OOC - "Alliance" comment was directed at Kriv I believe.)

Kriv

“I believe he was addressing me. Thank you for your hospitality, we will see to resolving matters of mutual interest.”

Formalities observed, the noble accepted the dismissal with equanimity.

Zhu

Still frowning at the whole situation, she follows Kriv out of the room.

Sindar

He had been silent the entire time. Usually, he was verbose, but the hosts were disquieting to say the least, and he didn't want to complicate their situation with his off-brand of humor. Though he did listen and learn a few things from the discussion. He to made his way from the lord's keep back out into the world of light.

(OOC - Are we waiting for anything?)

OOC: Santa.

ooc: You're all waiting on me. It's been a busy, busy week.

DM
The four gather their weapons and follow the dwarf out to the entry vestibule where he moves to the front door and with nary a word lets opens it to let you out. Any questions asked of him are answered curtly, with a fake smile, almost rudely, "What do I know?" or "Why didn't you ask the Lords?" or a simple, "I have no clue." He ushers you out of the keep and then closes the door and you can hear the door locking behind. Now standing outside the keep, the foursome are able to talk amongst themselves and decide what to do next.

Zhu

Turning to glance back as the door closes, the frown never left her face. She turns back to the group with a shrug. "Well, shall we head onwards then after the Dwarf? We should ask after the Frost Giant as we go too I suppose."

Kriv

A curt nod in the human fashion from the Dragonborn in assent.

Aubric

"Sounds good to me," the cleric nods.

ooc: The other party is probably a few days ahead because they traveled. We'll catch up soon. Let's get there...
DM
The day was getting long and in the time the four heroes had spent in the keep, a crisp afternoon had turned chilly as nightfall approached. As they make their way down the hill from the Lord's Keep, they can tell that that the villagers take their own warnings to stay off the streets at night very seriously. Most of the carts and wagons that were busy earlier were now either gone or leaving. In their place autumn leaves swirl in the somewhat brisk wind.

With the horses and wagon are currently in the stable behind the inn. Unless there's a decision to leave town immediately, the warmth of the inn was inviting.

Zhu

She'd like to get going as soon as possible, but she supposes there's no reason to risk a confrontation that the others seem to prefer to avoid. "Should we leave first thing in the morning then?" She asks.
