>>/6685/ > Wasting no time, Alice takes a seat with the Rockseekers and eagerly waits for warm food and drink ''They greet her with happiness in their eyes and ale on their breaths." >>/6691/ > Good evening! I am glad we made it back in time! It was quite an ordeal! They raise their mugs to her and greet her warmly. >>/6697/ > Nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya nya. They smile and look at her with interest and concern regarding her story. Then look at the rock and shrug. Nundro takes the rock gingerly and speaks as he presents it like a fine piece of cheese, "I consider myself an expert in rocks of all types and conditions, I know how they break, I know how they crush, I know how they slide, tumble, fracture, and pulverize, I know their type and I know their worth, this here is groht adadtharr with a layer of kàn, quite a nice find if it was in the mine, as you know loadstone would be in that vein there." He pointed at a stripe of quartz in that granite stone. Taking out an eye piece he examined the hole edge. His brow furrowed, his forehead beaded with sweat, his hand started to shake and he began to breath shallow breaths. Then he let out a large burp and continued to look at the stone. "Can't say I know what it means, it's got some obsidian in there, something hotter than a volcano did this." Ashley stomps up to the Rockseekers and eyes them with Intimidation, "Cat said Where's Sildar? Answer the question." [1d20+6=22 vs 1d20+1=3,16] Nundro was startled by her intimidating stare and drops the rock onto the table, wide eyed and in shock, Tharden simply points towards the restroom surprise in his eyes. Ashley walked with purpose and speed off toward the room as you watch, an angry gleam in her eyes. "Eh... is she alright?" Nundro whispered to you all. Tharden crossed his arms on his chest and leaned back in his chair, glancing toward the room in the back of the inn, all ears. [Survival rolls for Sildar.] Oh, he did not fare well. A shrill voice was heard from the back, presumably Ashley's and even Alice had trouble following the conversation with her connection, all she knew was Ashley was negotiating the payment for the quest. After a few minutes a defeated Sildar left the back room with Ashley following closely, holding a small coin purse. She followed him to the table, "Sit!" He sat. "I told him we didn't leave none alive, I told him what was in that cave." "In detail." Sildar murmured. Ashley pinched his neck and he winced. "You'll speak when I'm done." "And I told him, we'll accept twice the quest money for our trouble... and he accepted." She finished with a smirk and threw a coin purse with 75 gold coins in it spilling out onto the table. "I already took my share. Now, that the payment is settled, let's talk about the mission... Go on." She sat and leaned back in her chair. Looking quite smug. Sildar started with an apologetic look, "Yes, well, I didn't expect women and children, I knew about the slave girls but I didn't know how much they overheard. I suppose they won't know enough to warn the castle of our plans. And thanks again for clearing that up." [There was a real risk that you wouldn't get paid for the side quest at all, you can thank Ashley for her particular set of skills.]
