The man started leading them straight back outside and then southerly, in the direction of the Warehouse district, talking all the while.

"I am Tolot, of Ve'er. I recognise a couple of you from when you came to Ve'er over a year ago. I am not sure if you remember me, but we spoke briefly in the Orcshead Tavern.

The town of Ve'er needs Heroica's help once again. After what happened about 6 months ago with the lost children, which I believe some of you assisted us with, Hlin decided to quit the law business and go into adventuring, taking Vres Halpo and Laxadaisi Velomptromp with him. They ended up in Miranda, far south of here, across the sea. We remained in contact for a while, but have heard nothing for a troubling amount of time, especially with the rumours about this tower suddenly appearing. We believe the Dark General Haroka and his Inquisitors to be behind this. Our town has unfinished business with him, which is what possessed Hlin to go off in the first place. Since almost losing Vell, he wants to right all the wrongs in the world, a task beyond just one man. But hopefully you will be able to find him and the others.

Do you have any questions? We are almost at our first port of call... Oh, and have you selected a leader for your party? I was remiss in doing so yesterday."

OOC: Check stats are OK, please. All just taken from the Hero Statistics page so it's not my fault if they are wrong :laugh:

"I shall be leading, wherever neccesary. Who are these inquisitors? I haven't heard of them before."

Guts turns to the party:

"Nagure, want to borrow this Sword, Fafnir? It looks to be a bit sharper than your axe."

Stats are good.

"That's a lot of names right away. Let's see if I've got it right; we are helping a man called Hlin against some dark general called Haroka, and then there is some mysteriously appearing tower in the middle of everything, and all of this is happening in the land of Miranda that lies to the south across the sea? Well, if that is correct I only have one question; how do we get there?"

"Thank you Guts, I shall put it to good use."

Turning to Tolot, I ask "have you heard anything about the Maginstra?"

I rush up, dripping water. After my conversation with Nerwen, I realized something: I stunk. Like, I had a fetid odor surrounding me 24/7. Thus, I bathed quickly and rushed to catch up as this Tolot fellow rendezvoused at the Hall.

"Hello, everyone.

I second Nagure's question: have you heard any word of a Maginastra? He conjured up a house from nowhere and stuffed snatched kids in it. This seems mighty similar, and perhaps his Modus Operandi.

Not to mention, we found a map in his house which had Miranda marked on it. Might suspicious..."

Tolot seems to grin a little when the Maginastra's name is mentioned, although it is perhaps a little hard to tell under the head-dress.

8202839667_ea0b520f70_o.jpg

"I have not heard of this Peggy, I was not aware that unicorns even existed. I've never seen one. The one you know as the Maginastra was involved in the taking of the children of Ve'er, as you know, and was seen sometime afterwards as well. All will be revealed soon." he finished cryptically.

8040362940_5197bc7dd7_c.jpg

Now in the heart of the warehouse district, he paused at one of the warehouse doors.

8202839667_ea0b520f70_o.jpg

"I was asked to bring you here, and this I have done. You must enter this warehouse."

What will the party do?

"It is not my place to enter," said the enigmatic Tolot.

Realising that they could only go in, Guts opened the doors...

They entered the warehouse:

It was piled high with stuff.

Sorrow inspects the large barrel, seeing something grey in there:

Rats! At least two of them! And they look quite hungry, although they don't attack the party, because that would be a bit lame - starting with a battle involving rats, and not what the party signed up for at all.

"A bottle of what appears to be booze, two rats and a spider. Something tells me this is a vermin birthday party.

Something also tells me this is a normal warehouse and we're being misled."

Nerwen enters the warehouse behind the other heroes. Already the rogues were rifling through the goods stored there. Looking for shiny trinkets no doubt.

I am sorry for my lateness, my trip to the market must have taken longer than I thought.

Since it is the obvious item out of place, Nerwen inspects the black tardiswardrobe thing.

stats good!

Nerwen looks around to see Guts drugging himself again.

I am surprised you do not mix them beforehand to save time and, knowing you, add some more alcohol to it.

"Hm, I like it the way it is. The Nostrum gives a kick, the salts take that kick away, and the mead washes away the taste of the salt. Mixing it would taste like mud. Although I do hear elves have an affinity for mud."

I see. Somewhat like the lick-sip-suck that they play in the mistlands with fermented snake venom, salt and a citron.

As for mud, perhaps you mean the mori'quessir, unless you are back to being your common self and not trying to be noble.

Has anyone else found anything of note? Paladin? Ninja Girl?

Nerwen is intregued by the black object, she wishes she knew what it did...

Has anyone else found anything of note? Paladin? Ninja Girl?

"Nothing that looks out of place, seems like a perfectly normal warehouse if you ask me. With the exception of that black door of course. Do you want me to take a look inside?"

Maurice moves forward towards the door, ready to enter if he is granted permission.
