You drag the thug inside the Inn to confront Morthil Harker. Harker's usual space behind the bar is empty. The door to the rear cellar swings gently as if he's only just made his exit. The thug yells out "Flee Morthil, they know...." and struggles to break free. You can hear the slapping of footsteps on flagstoned steps behind the door. Harker doesn't sound like an athlete, that's for sure, big man though he may be.
You become aware of an immediate silence in the bar as the inn's patrons loom menacingly behind you, blocking your exit.

"Well this is why I wanted to go straight to the Magi..." Xanxus spits elbowing the thug in the nose, "You lot have an unattended bar, we have the last living, for now, of Morthil's ambushing party of murdering cowards... Are you going to get drunk and party or are we going to end up brawling and possibly getting this place burnt down... if that happens we're not paying for it this time." he inquires to the crowd his face hard behind his face mask as his jaw sets hand going to his hilt.

Haguk places a hand on his sword, ready to draw. "Listen to the man, this won't be no quaint little tavern brawl. When I fight, I fight to death."

Auskan turns to a quick glance over his shoulder, and seeing the way out blocked, reaches for his weapon, asking "Is everyone in on this nonsense? What the hell is going on?"

Domitius turned and faced the man filling the doorway. He glowered at the man, "Morthil Harker, I will only say this once. We have entered this living dungeon with a singular purpose, and believe me, we will achieve that purpose. It is up to you whether you benefit from our presence or get in the way and be so easily slain like your lackeys." He shook the man for good measure, "I am inclined to help those who help us, but woe those who rise up against me. What say you? Shall the No Escape Inn will be placed under new management?"

Blackstar has disappeared. It's unknown whether it's out the back to chase after Mothril, or to raid the kitchen.

Domitius shouts down the stairs to the cellar but receives no reply. Instead he hears the solid, definite sound of stone sliding across stone.

I'm confused. two things:1) We had killed all the men in the alley, so how was Morthil warned?
2) In your last post, it sounded like the inn's patron (Morthil Harkness) had ran up to the doorway and thereby blocked our exit. Now it sounds like he has escaped down the cellar and we're wasting our breath yelling at him. Could you clarify what's going on in the scene?

OOC:
I think he assumed you didn't kill the survivor we got info from, Morthil definitely wouldn't come towards us if we just killed the ambushers so I figure the barkeep bailed out the back or another exit, everyone in the bar is showing solidarity now, meta the story about the wizard might be a goose chase if he's running this way, stone on stone sliding might be a secret area or something, shrugs.Rolls

"Back!" shouts Auskan at the crowd. "This scum, and his associates tried to kill us. We seek Mohrthil, and the coward." Even though they don't appear hostile yet, it's clear that they're all at th every least an obstacle. The prisoner has also clearly out lived his usefulness, but to kill him here, bound and in front of all these people would surely attract unwanted attention...

I was under the impression that the goon we'd brought with warned our quarry when we came in. I should have gagged him.Last edited April 12, 2017 4:19 am

There's no goon. At least, there shouldn't be. Because Domitius killed him.Apr 12, 2017 12:38 pm

I'm figuring he was going off what Auskan said who may not have seen the edited version versus the original post by Domitius after the fact.Apr 12, 2017 10:35 pm

You assumed correctly. I've missed a post somewhere. My view of what happened is that you dragged the survivor back in to the Inn to confront Morthil. As you get into the Inn he shouts "Flee Morthil" and Harker bolts down the cellar stairs. If you are all happy with that then we can continue. Apologies if I missed a post. Easy done I suppose but I should be more careful.Apr 12, 2017 10:37 pm

Also, Morthil was never blocking the doorway at any point. Once you entered the Bar, the Inn's patrons came behind you and blocked your exit.Apr 14, 2017 7:27 am

Auskan still wants to intimidate the gathering throng.OOC:
Can you do two things for me. Can you advance yourself to 3rd level. Sorry, I should have clarified that when you signed up. Everyone is level 3. You'll be way too squishy at 1st level. Then give me a Charisma roll 1d20 + CHA + LVL. I'm not sure you have any relevant backgrounds. Big Game Hunter would be good if you were trying to intimidate a Cheetah but not a man lol....Apr 14, 2017 1:04 pm

Any effect since I just did socially browbeat the crowd above his post and got a 31?Apr 16, 2017 10:17 pm
