Dungeons and Dragons Game Thread: Eastern Storm Rising Part II
So here it is, long overdue for which I apologize.
Since we didn't get to finish the first part proper, again my fault.
I'll quickly run over things that happened since.
Rusky, Ander, Kan and Sarwyn you all found cells on either side of that hallway you were following. Most of them were empty except for one in which there was an old man. With his dieing breath he described the men who had kidnapped him as "Hooded man, with venetian masks most of them were white masks and capes but there was one who wore a black mask. They all spoke a language I don't understand... I think the man with the black cape was the leader..... Then the old man collapses and dies. Further inspection of the hallway leads you to a big chest filled with a 1,000 gold pieces which you all divided evenly, Rusky insists on it. Then there is a strong wooden door at the end of the hallway. You can feel a cold brees coming from underneath it. After you break it open you're back on the streets again. Sarwyn you notice this is close to one of the smaller gates only used for travellers on foot. When you go and question the guards you learn that three people two in a white cloak and one in a black cloak rushed by there a few minutes ago.
After enjoying the circus you guys all feel pretty tired.
Here starts the new part for you guys.
"Well then here we are Audron": Says the old man to you. You feel content the long journey from the city of Glabryn to the city of Takuna-Sato is over. Too bad your employer had to close his old inn but business was just not good anymore. On the other hand this new city seems existing and prosperous.
You are standing in front of a big medieval looking house. A stone first floor, the other floors are wood and lime. There is a small sign that says "The Dwarven Barrel"
You're finally there Elendil you reached the city. Tho you can hardly compare it with the forest from which you come it still feels good to wander in these streets and to know that you can sleep in a bed for the first time in a week. The city looks pretty impressive should you be into such a thing. Now what was that address again your father gave you... Aaah you remember "The Joyful halfling" near Pegasus road.
There it is and it is amazing, not as big as the cities you are accustomed to Ludill. But it is still the biggest city you have seen since you left The Imperial city of Dul. You can smell the sea blending in with the smell of fish and spices, you can hear the workers on the docks and all the other noises a busy city makes. "Prepare to disembark!" Why do those Sailors always have to yell?
When the ship is tied to the dock and the walking planks are in place you can start to make your way of the galley.

VOILA GUYS THE RPG BEGINS HERE

Elen looks at the gigantic city and is immediately overcome with many feelings, a lot he doesn't quite understand. He remembers 'Pegasus Road', and starts to walk around the city, looking for a map of sorts so he can find his way.
You don't seem to find any maps anywhere. But when you start to follow one of the big roads to the center you arrive at a market with a big cathedral in the center. There are still a lot of people here although the market seems to be ending. People are breaking up there stands, customers are hurrying home alone or with boys carrying there bags.
One person has a walking bathtub running behind him filled with goods. he seems to be an elf.

Ludill takes a deep breath before disembarking from the ship. Ludill asks someone where the nearest inn is. After spending so much time on a ship he wonders what a real bed feels like again.
Noticing the elf, Elen walks over cautiously, eyeing the wierd bathtub thing. "How do I get to the...oh no, I forgot it! Oh...something about a halfling? Where's Pegasus Road?"
"Well you follow this street till you come to the second right there you take the first street left and there you will find The Sailors keep. a little rough around the edges but a decent inn. HAHAHA, Glad to be of service" says the old man with the yellow teeth.
Ander you feel your powers have been severely depleted you need to rest before you can cast any spell of a decent magnitude.
"Hmmm... something about a halfling? Pegasus Road???? I think I know what you mean. But what is your name my friend?"

Sarwyn had been watching the spectacle absentmindedly, reflecting on the past events.

Ludill thanks the man before making his way down the street following the directions the man gave him untill he came to the sailors inn. *hopefuly I can work here for a nights stay* Ludill thought to himself before entering the inn.
Something just doesn't feel right Sarwyn, you've never seen a bear that enraged. It just wasn't natural.
As you open the door Ludill you are hit by a bunch of smells and sounds. The smell of beer, fish and fire fills your nose, the sound of laughter, rough talk and female giggling fills your ears.
When your eyes adjust to the smog and gloom lighting inside you can see this place is more a whorehouse than an actual inn. You will need some pretty heavy stories for these guys to be entertained.
"My name is Merthand nice to meet you Elen, why don't you follow me to my house so I can drop of these groceries and then I'll take you to the Joyful Halfling."

The man looks at you a little funny. "Nothing you've never seen an animated object? This is far easier than carrying all my groceries myself and I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for it all myself"
After a small walk through apparently a very wealthy part of town you arrive at a small purple building. On the sign hanging next to the door it says: "The Blue Spark"
"So here we are": says the man "This is my shop. Not too big but I do sell the most magical items in this entire city!"
He opens the door and lets the bathtub in.
"So let's go find the Joyful Halfling shall we?"
__________________ Be smart, be cool, be sexy = be LIBERAL!
Ludill can't stand the smell of the smoke i the inn, so he decides it would be better for him if he went some where else. Once back on the main street Ludill looks around for any signs that may help him find a *cleaner* inn.
"Wait! What's your name again? Thanks for taking me here. Tom and Tim...? Ok. Bye!" Elen walks in the tavern, and looks around a bit, then walks to the bar and asks for Tom or Tim.
