"Hi hunak mae alsyd. La tqate!" The words are foreign, but with the help of hand gestures the Hiptites convey to you that Rong Hua is in the nearby tent, but it's a bad idea to go there, as that would anger their master. What do you do?

OOC:
Can Wei hear anything from the tent?

"Whether you care for him or not, he kept us from having to fight two more bandits. Let me see what I can do for him." Iko says, offering as warm a smile as he can offer to Wu Meng before taking his bandages and attempts to help Dae-Won stop the bleeding.

"You missed my encounter with a deadly assassin as well." Wu Meng smiled at Feng. "Rong Hua and I did not manage to retrieve the text, someone was already there before us and tried to frame us for it, and for the murder of Lady Guong. I now have information on who has it, the trail leads back to the Changgok. Hua is paying a debt in return for this roundabout lead. She is nearby, we can go look for her next."

Feng does nothing to impede Iko, instead watching the two from afar, conversing with Meng. "Glad to hear we have all managed to keep busy. And this debt, do you know what it involves?"
Aug 8, 2019 5:57 am
"It is an honourable act. She goes to save a girl from being sold to slavery. I assume Wei has gone after her, just like you came for me. With all five of us we may succeed better. "

Rong Hua smiles as she gently accepts the drink.
Thank you she smiled, bringing it to her nose to smell it, humming slightly.
OOC:
is there a check i can make to c if there is poison or something?

"I do still owe you." Feng looks at the corpses, then off in the distance. "Let us move on then, I do not wish to remain here should a guard arrive. Plus it's best to keep Rong Hua out of trouble."

The offered drink is not poisoned, but there's something about that incense... your limbs feel numb, and your eyelids feel like they are weighed down by boulders. Atekhramun is chanting something slowly. He looms over you as you lose consciousness.

Iko, Xian Feng, and Wu Meng
OOC:
Mark one use of your Bandages, Iko.
Dae-Won grunts in pain as Iko binds him up. "What are you people doing in this quarter anyhow? Tamchim thought you might be headed for the river ferry station."

Feng's search of the bodies doesn't turn up much. Between the two thugs, you find four coins and two knives (hand, 2 coins, 1 weight). The leader also has a brace of small throwing knives (thrown, near, 1 coin, 0 weight, 3 ammo) in a concealed wrist sheath. There is also a small vial of blue crystals that none of you are familiar with.

Both men bear gang symbol tattoos. The Dogs, a gang of cut-throats and rapists. Human garbage.

Ah...
She said as the cup slipped from her hands, the female tumbling to the ground.

Zhang Wei

You hear a male voice chanting softly in a strange tongue. What do you do?
Aug 9, 2019 8:05 am
"Is there something we must attend to at the river ferry station?" Wu Meng looked at the other two. "Otherwise we should head to Rong Hua, and I assume Wei headed there as well, since he's not with us."
Aug 9, 2019 1:20 pm
Wei hears the soft chanting and let's curiosity get the better of him. Moving closer to the tent, he tries to peer inside.
Aug 9, 2019 2:26 pm
In the center of the tent, a tall Hiptite stands over Rong Hua's unconscious form. The man turns toward you, eyes blazing, and throws a handful of green powder into a nearby brazier. There is a flash of light as the powder ignites, and thick, choking smoke billows forth, threatening to knock you out!
OOC:
Roll Defy Danger CON, Zhang Wei.

Wei gives an angry shout as he sees Rong Hua unconscious and on the floor. Drawing Kun Wu, he rushes into the tent. Surging forward Wei tries to fight his way through the thick smoke.

You manage not to pass out, but now you can't see anything in this damn smoke! What do you do, Wei?
