Whilst the others are attending to the elder Barnpuddle Hildar slips out of the room into the main living area. He pauses for a moment to gather his thoughts whilst waiting for an opportune moment to interrupt the woman. When it looks like she is at a point where she won’t be at risk of chopping her fingers off he coughs politely "Excuse me, I would like to try to mix up something that may be able to help ease Mr Barnpuddle's condition for at least a while. Could I use the room for a few minutes?"

OOC:

well, if he was offering unskilled assistance Remnant could just help stir stuff I suppose lol

OOC:

Looks like you're on your own for now on the Alchemy check.

The woman stops chopping and stares at Hildar. Her green eyes narrow. "Help yourself. Least you interlopers can do considering the trouble you're causing."

Remnant says:

"Sounds like it was a good game. Baron's son seems a bit brattish, even has a set of goons mucking about and trying to sound civil but threatening and failing. If your a rough tuff that's good a breaking things you usually shouldn't speak a lot since it shows how much brains you have. That's said has he been to the site, some thuggish looking loafs come sniffing around the work site? Anything suspicious happen besides the normal human level of greed and such. Actually how'd he take to the whole incident that happened? If you know and don't mind talking about it." Tronus asks.

OOC:

Tronus is thinking this would be a lot easier if we just visit the Baron's Son and punch him in the face till he passed out and continue every time he wakes up till his dad is back... probably won't solve most of the problems but it's not like he doesn't need it.

The man exhales as he settles into a pillow and sets the playing card down. "That's all above my rank, friend. Alls I know is that Hensnest put us on the job, Dribbage Acquisitions is paying for it, and the baron's son stands to gain if we succeed. None of us ever dealt with Renash, though. Just his assistant, Marseen Olond."

"Haven't I heard that name before?" Nekurr turns to the others as Norc mentions Marseen Olond "Every accident seems to be leading to this assistant "

OOC:

You have. She's the one who the miners are feuding with, since she is using the Buzzard's Ford refugees to continue the work. She hired the refugee teenagers and had them go down the tunnel with her, which caused them all to go a bit batty.

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

Hildar nods to the woman "Yes, I do feel like it is the least we can do in the situation." and he quickly begins to work. As he busies himself with the work he absently uses his magic to help with the process where he can...as he works he begins to get frustrated as things are not going well...

OOC:

Thinking for flavour more than anything that he'd probably use Utility magic to assist with things like keeping things stirred at a consistent speed or keeping stuff at the right temp. Would probably raise a few eyebrows from Helvig just from his blatant casual use of magic if nothing else....hmmm, the Triumph....I would really like the woman to cool down a bit, maybe seeing us trying to genuinely help makes her come on side a bit if she's got something to share?

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

OOC:

I got the impression that Remnant was still back with the patient, but if you would have gone with HIldar, then, yes, feel free to assist. I'm happy to grant an additional boost die for Apothecary (so 2 total).

Love the description of mortars and pestles moving by magic, by the way! No strain for that sort of thing; the rules state that such magical special effects wizardry can be done for "free" essentially as long as it's just set dressing.

The woman's eyes light up at Hildar's display of obvious magical acumen. "Well, maybe if you's got spells and suchlike, you might be able to protect us from any ruffian types that's been threatening us..."

"Do they come around a lot, do they look human, what do they say, and have they damaged anything?" Tronus asks the female dwarf his face showing something it rarely does, a malicious smile.

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

With Tronus's assistance, Hildar is able to overcome the less-than-ideal environment and come up with two potions, enough to keep the injured Dwarf comfortable for at least a couple days. His wife seems all-too-impressed:

"Only person who's visited is that fool Gettle. Thinks leeches are gonna suck the poison out, I suppose. Ain't done nothing but kill his leeches faster and faster. What I'm worrying about is healer care. Oh, yeah—some of Marseen Olond's boys came by, saying she ain't gonna pay the Guild for Norc or the other injured miners if we talk to outsiders. I told Onin not to bring in nobody, but I guess you folks can help with the treatment, so it's not all bad..."

"Technically Marseen Olond's boys... are outsiders, I'm of the mindset they never were going to pay if they didn't have though. Seems suspicious to say the least." Tronus admits with a frown.

Onin comes back to your side of the curtain. "Well, Olond's Renash's representative with Dribbage Acquisitions. It's all kind of hazy who's in charge, but Olond's definitely in charge of the tunnel excavation. You won't tell no one you spoke with us, will ya?"

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

Nekurr then looks at the boy "We won't tell. It seems like everyone is pointing at this Marseen Olond" Nekurr turns to Helvig "Whatever is going on, Dribbage Acquisitions must know more than they are letting out.". Checking the Norc on final time "We just bough some time for now. We will need to research the proper medicine now that we had the opportunity to loos at the wounds"

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

The younger Dwarf sits down on a stool and sighs. "Thanks for your help. I was down there, too, but my Pa and the other blast crew took the brunt of the... whatever it was. If you figure out how to help Pa, don't forget Yorin and Frolin Gadawall." His mother takes the concoction made by Hildar and gets the older Dwarf to drink it down. The son continues, "Olond's probably not in her office no more. You'll have to wait till tomorrow to speak to her. But I do hear she likes to get an ale or two after work." He extends a hand to the three of you. "Good luck. And thanks again."

OOC:

Leaving it to you whether you want to meet up with Olond this evening (entailing a visit to a tavern) or in her office in the morning. Other leads are visiting the tunnel site (but expect guards to be there), or tracking down Jacey Tabbins, the third Buzzard's Ford kid who was down there during the second accident.

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

OOC:

Jacey Tabbins, since she is Nekurr's little friend and the great pageant winner!!! (right?)

though he would not offer any opposition to dropping by the tavern ...

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

OOC:

Yeah tracking down Jacey would be the first priority I think, we can always swing by the tavern later and try and catch Olond

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

The nuns of St. Durvin's Chapel mentioned that Jacey Tabbins has been coming for charity meals every evening, so you return to the chapel area and exit the castle proper near the path leading to the Buzzard Town shanties. The evening meal service seems to be wrapping up, but you're in luck: You recognize the Buzzard's Ford pageant winner, despite her haggard appearance. She is only a few places back in the queue, waiting for a ladleful of stew while she rocks her body in apparent agitation.

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

Nekurr looks around the St. Durvin's Chapel, taking note of everyone who's joined for the charity meal. Besides the Buzzard Town shanties, maybe there would be some baronial "employees", miners or even some of the Dribbage's people sniffing about.

As he notices Jacey Tabbins' agitation, he decides to observe her for a little bit as she waits in the queue.

OOC:

Just checking what she does and if she is agitated because of something/someone in the Chapel. Just to be sure... she is the one who fled after seeing ... the (draconic) horror right?... what's my skill in therapy 🤔

Re: [IC] Aqua Mortis (Session 1)

OOC:

Let's do an Average (PP) Perception check for the general scouting and watching, CESN. Take a boost for it being a relatively open area.

Therapy -- if her trauma is mundane, we could call that Medicine. If not, well, helping her is a quest reward!
