"The dragoon didn't seem to know what was left or right. I personally don't want my gold to go to his revival, but it's Swinehurst's decision...."

Yes, yes, quite.

Nothing stops them from talking. And I prefer a full stomach, an empty head, and no people trying to kill me, we can't all get what we want.

"I'm not into that."

Eubric Freeport by Emma Temple of Ennoc by Fianat

Yes.

"Also, just a sidenote, I shall still take any tribute, be it in the form of items, gold or passionate declarations of love. Hint, I'd love me some tonics. "

"Very well, Maxi Ebdul won't be able to do anything himself anyway. So no rush." Scamander jumps up a table, hops to another one, and starts to fiddle with a pouch of herbs he took out of his pocket. "Also, if someone wants to take a blow at the ogre who is just there. There could be worse actions to take. I still think there is a good chance he is actually scum, and even if he is neutral, he won't be helpful either way if he is just hiding, so I personally would prefer to see his stuff in the hands of Heroes. Your attempts to antagonize the great Sleepmaster Scamander Taurros have been noted, as well as Kharybdis' annoying loyalty to you."

"You have upgraded your weapon quite a bit, would you perhaps do the honours?"

The Great Sleepmaster Scamander shall allow you to speak.

Guts takes off the amulet, and tosses it to Everstien. "Next time you will be clear in what it you want us to do. No time travelling, dream walking or whatever, before you have told us. Also, your parties are the worst. Now, if there's nothing else...?"

"I say someone kills Maxi. If he's town, we kill Brienne, and possibly Kharybdis, if he's scum, we kill Fleyra. Sounds like a plan to me."

"If anyone was hit by a spell, arrow or bullet last night, I would like to hear, we should be able to sufficiently bring down the list to people who could have done it."

No, you slept because I made you. "No. I make the rules now, hahahahaha. No, but seriously, we do this my way. "

"Hey, I'm helping us win. Except for Cromeo's little love touch, no one died tonight again. You notice how there is a pattern? I get busy, people don't die. People don't die, we get more results, more coordination, more stuff, more everything."

"You can't hide when you are asleep, dummy."

"Maxi and Fleyra have a big announcement to make. I personally don't know what to make of it, for them this to prevent them from doing anything rash. As for Zpilf, he claims to be neutral, I personally think he could be claiming neutral and actually be a Nephilim, the rest of them are all either suspicious or can do stuff I don't want them to do." "One other thing. Geosmos is neutral too. He's with the town watch and is no threat to us, or something. Sounds fishy, but the veterans confirmed it, if you'd believe it. But. Emmanuelle got the same info on that as I did, yet didn't feel the need to clarify that to us. Plus there is the fact she was cleared... by a Nephilim. Want to explain that?"

"I assume Swinehurst gave you the gold, along with the gold from killing the necromancer. If that is true, could I have my 10 gold back, as I rather spend it on a tonic..." Scamander jumps up a table, playing an impatient song on his flute. Singing a Lullaby, that put Maxi Ebdul, Fleyra, Zpilf, Percival, Jeddam, Weyrdag, Zarissa, Corelin and Pallas to sleep. "Say your prayers, to the gods, Don't forget, Ennoc, Sem, to include everyone! Block you in, front row in, Keep you free from stun, Till the Minstrel comes! Sleep with three eyes open, Gripping your weapons tight...." Editted in song.

Cromeo, how did you get the gold?

The raider grins as he looks at his handiwork. A dead Marsh. Calmly, he takes out a rag from one of his pockets, and wipes off the blood from his weapon. Slinging the weapon his back, he looks at his companions. That was right, he was the people person of the group... He clear his throat, and starts talking. "Lord Marsh tried to have your good friend Gerald Guffington killed tonight. Through poisoning, or other means. The 'Chef' Clippard, is actually Poisoner Clippard, and if you inspect his body, you will find a vial with a poison that is probably clear, tasteless and very expensive. If you don't mind, I want it. Not only that, Lord Marsh hired a second assassin. A Blue Assassin, I believe, in the form of the server, I did not catch his name. The silly looking one with the wings. This to ensure the flamboyant Clippard wouldn't talk, and to act as a back up. Blue Assassins have more morals than your average street-poisoner. Or so they'd say. Now if you open the doors to the kitchen, you'll find an angry, dangerous woman. Avery I believe she's called. A red assassin hired to kill Clippard, the Blue Assassin and Lord Marsh. I think she was hired by Lady Marsh. Why, you might ask? Because Lord Marsh was the lowest form of life I have ever met, he plotted to have someone who considered him a friend killed for a sum of gold, and used some sort of potion to control Lady Marsh's mind. I don't want to guess if that potion is a recent thing, for all we know, Lady Marsh never went with Lord Marsh out of free will... Anyway, that are the facts. Any questions?"

Guts attacks once with his halberd.

Meh, Zepher's current quest is pulling it down by quite a bit. (91 days so far, 2x experience) Also remember the numbers get kinda messed up by experience as rewards. And Hall downtime is an unpredictable factor. Sometimes you get to be in the hall for weeks, months, the next time you are good to go in the same week.

Sounds like a certain someone's enemies that were immune to Lifestealer.

Thotwick has been saying that for years.

I would recognize the mistake, and do what it said on the tin. Sure it sucks that your battle is 'ruined', but there you go, these sort of thing happen. You wouldn't be the first to have a battle turn out very differently than expected because of overlooked skills, overlooked items or ridiculous luck. It'd make good roleplaying, too.
