"Depends. I didn't come here to throw down with the Church. I'd like to know exactly what it is we're trying to recover and why it's so important to Lord Lassie," he said and at chuckled at the off-colour joke.

"I am also interested in specifics of the artifact, delivering this to Lassite is part of our current agreement, not a bonus. I intend to fulfill that, I do not break contracts." Alin looks at the others "Involvement of a church is a complication, but none more than crossing paths with a house or some other organization. If our new friends don’t want to risk the ire of the silver flame, I can understand that completely."
Alin returns their attention to the barmaid. "I suspect that we will find information about these zealots and their intent as we take back the artifact. You have my permission and gratitude if you are willing to compensate us for any useful information we gather." Alin winks blatantly at the barmaid to elicit a reaction from the others and relieve the tension.

Ghillie raised a bushy eyebrow.

Gunnar struggles to get a word in edgewise, so he tries broadwise.

"And barmaid, if you could get me another mushroom beer, that would be swell. Just when you get a chance'll be fine."

The Silverflame fanatics counter everybody's interest. Grunts Kevin.
But like Ghillie, I'm not interested in confronting them. It could have far-reaching consequences for shifter-kind.
OOC:
Quick meta-question, is the plot to break into a silverflame stronghold? If so Kevin will go along. But if not, he is more inclined to quit while he is ahead, as he thinks these James Bond wannabe's are idiots

OOC:
The plot is open to you. On this particular quest, the Tyrants do not know if the Silver Flame fanatics are actually targeting them, targeting agents of Lassite, or are just fanatical and this course of violence against Raelyn was unrelated to the Tyrants’ interests.

She is saying that in terms of the prior contract, she is considering the contract complete. She is asking to rehire you to help investigate, but you could just as easily go your separate ways.

The investigation could be handled any way you want: you could capture and interrogate someone, you could break in and sneak around, you could try to speak with the Lassites (or someone else you may be connected to), or you could try even something else that I haven’t detailed. The game is whatever you want it to be, and I will do what I can to steer the ship into a direction that you will enjoy.

If you’re not interested in this particular mission, you could go exploring the city. The city is not huge on the surface, but there is lots to do, and you all are also in possession of that docent thing. I want you guys to do what you want. I have plenty of quest ideas, so if you don’t want to deal with religious fanatics, we can move to another quest theme.

I don't know about you guys, but I am fare more interested it was is going on below the city than what is going on with the Silverflame

"I'd love to find a portal to Lamannia down there," the druid added.

"I'm with you all no matter what we choose. So long as I get a chance to fight." And perhaps finally die, he thinks.

"Back to the undercity? Sure, sounds like a fine lark! In that case, I'll take my beer to go."

"I'm making mine go right now," Ghillie said as he took another gulp.

"If we are being absolved of our prior contract, then I am with my shifter friend and will avoid confrontation with the Silver Flame."
OOC:
Dungeon delve!

"Flaming Silver Flame," Ghillie growled. "I always preferred the Undying Court anyhow."

The barmaid makes a sad face, and then says, "That's fine; I can understand your desire to not deal with those fanatics.

"Well, I think you need to work with Sigmund to determine how long you can stay here on your friend's recommendation. I will take Raelyn and figure out more information, and rehabilitate him a bit.

I bid you adieu."
She tilts her head towards the door and looks at Raelyn, and he slinks out of the room, followed by the barmaid.
OOC:
Alright, you can investigate the tunnels and such as you desire. Interacting with Krinn may be a good way to direct you.

Let's level up to 5th level, and then we will proceed. Please level up on DNDBeyond, and let me know in the OOC forum when your character is leveled and ready.

I don't feel like roleplaying the interaction with Sigmund, but he indicates that you all can stay freely in his spare rooms for another 7 days.
