Putting aside money and other valuables aside, I put the ring-in-a-box into my backpack to investigate it later and focus on writings.

Leylin would try Thayan language first. If that fails - he will attempt Infernal, Abyssal, Undercommon and Draconic next.Dec 10, 2018 7:55 am
OOC:
Shadows will dissipate in less than 30 seconds. They only follow orders Leylin give them and after there are no more zombies - they'll "chill".

A few seconds after the last zombie is felled, Nine's red eyes fade to black and the construct affixes the axe back into the chamber from where it was drawn.
That was an exciting fight. You bunch are formidable combatants. This one is pleased to have joined with you. Were you expecting to find undead here? Do you know who that red robed man is? Do you know how long he has been here? Do you know why he was here? Why did you want to come here, to begin with? The rapid-fire questions end with Nine looking back and forth across the group, waiting for answers as it follows Leylin to the tent.

"I expected some but not that much. I was thinking maybe a few skeletons inside the well or something. We're here to acquire some magical items that should be helping us in our search for their friend." Bebaral answers as he climbs down from the wall.

Gu’lorg will perform his normal slaying rituals to Bargrivyek until he is summoned. During the ceremony, anyone present will be offered to become a brother in bloodshed. Anyone who accepts the offer will have blood of the wizard smeared on the bridge of their nose.
OOC:
It will take about 3-5 minutes for him to put the blood on his face and nose.Dec 10, 2018 9:42 pm
Nine walks to Gu'lorg, What is is that you are doing? Nine has not seen this custom before.
Dec 11, 2018 8:16 am
As the fight winds down, I stay alert for a few more seconds, looking around for any enemy that would have stayed away from the melee and could be trying to harm us in more subtle ways.
If nothing arises, I'll go check if anyone needs care. If Leylin shows me the scroll, I'll identify it for him. Which will remind me of something that will probably be of interest for Gu'lorg.
— Nine, Gu'lorg performs this ritual after every fight in the honor of his god. Do you know anything about hobgoblin gods?

Nine continues to watch the post-battle ritual while answering, No, this one has not learned about hobgoblin gods. This one did not know there was such a thing as a hobgoblin god.
Dec 11, 2018 2:30 pm
Gu’lorg breaks from the ceremony and asks, Spark, Nine, will you be my brothers in bloodshed?
He reaches out with a hand full of the pulp that was the enemy wizard’s face, still crouched near the body.

This one would be honored. Nine moves closer to Gu'lorg and kneels to the ground, next to him.
Dec 11, 2018 2:44 pm
Gu’lorg places a stripe of blood on Nine’s nose, and despite being an automaton, the surface of his nose becomes green.
I will speak your language so that you may understand.
You are now Green’Nine’Nose, brother of the booyagh of Bargrivyek. Gu’lorg gestures to himself as he says booyagh of Bargrivyek.
You have proven worthy of honor and respect on the field of battle, and this one he kicks the soupy head on the floor has proven ill-suited and undeserving of life.
May you have the blessings of Bargrivyek upon you as you vanquish the dishonorable from this world.
Gu'lorg takes Nine’s hand and lifts him from the floor, to a standing position.
Gu’lorg sweeps dust ceremoniously from Nine’s back and shoulders. We are bonded. We will fight side by side against the evils that threaten our world. I will go with you to help you find your creator, and you will aid me to save our world.
Gu’lorg claps his hands, grasps the glass staff, and says, Thank you, brother. We should keep moving. Did we find anything of interest here?

Nine bows before Gu'lorg then places a hand on the hobgoblins shoulder, Thank you, friend Gu'lorg. This is a great kindness, the likes of which this one has not seen in a very long time. Nine will fight by your side until our missions are completed. Nine stands silent for a moment before joining back with the group.

The writings are a random collection of thoughts by the Wizard, whose name you discover is Hamun Kost, related to his investigations of the site.
You discover the following information from the writings:
- Old Owl was built thousands of years ago by a long-vanished empire.
- Kost was exploring the site in the hope of gleaning arcane lore left behind by its builders.
- Kost was aware of Agatha the Banshee and wished to ask her who the builder of the site was, but he was fearful of the Banshee's anger so he was reluctant.
- He discusses finding a ring of protection among the ruins, his most interesting find to date.

After finishing with wizard's notes, I gather them into a stack and put it in my backpack. Next I peak out of the tent and call everyone to join me inside. It's cold outside.
How many people can fit inside?
OOC:
I presume that it's warmer inside? :DHow many people can fit inside?
Dec 11, 2018 5:22 pm
Gu'lorg will slip right in there, asking Leylin what he found (is it safe to assume that Leylin shares his findings?)
