The wind in her hair (OOC)

That works :)
We can say the tailor was unavailable for some reason. That way we don't have to retcon anything and don't need an interaction either.

Skip away, skipper!

Still here, little occupied with the Holliday 😉

Cool. How long is this 'holiday'? We can wait, or do we need to work around you?

Until Friday. I'll post something tomorrow or the day after.


Probably not as many words as the 2 of you 😉

We look forward to the spirit and quality of your words, we don't ask for quantity.

I have nothing to add until Roalds questions are answered :)

I will get on them soon.

No rush, just wanted to let you know

The mayor has given some speculations that may factor into the story going forward.

There will be people in town who definitely have (possibly conflicting) opinions. I am sure there will be many at the inn willing to talk. Unless you want to play out those conversations, you all can tell me a handful of rumours you hear, which ones you believe, which ones your characters hope are not true, and any you players particularly want to be true. I can try make some of them be true.

They neglect their lands. So I would assume the loyalty of the farmers is quite low. They probably have to pay a lot of taxes for the barons to be able to buy all the land. This would be nice if we get in too deep

- One of the sons' father is from the other family
- There is an argument about who will be the next baron.
- legend has it, there is a treasure burried somewhere on the land.
- one of the barons is a notorious drunk.
- there is some sort of underground resistance of the farmers.
- there is a mage involved
- one of the barons (and family) is extremely religious

you can decide true or false


Is this what you had in mind?

That sort of thing, yeah.

Maybe things like the Farmers' Resistance can be learned about in play, if your solution needs bodies.

The players can decide if they want this to be a armed conflict, or more of a political family drama... or if there is a supernatural element behind it.

I would prefer it to be a diplomatic thing, but if it includes a some combat, that's fine too.
We don't technically have to lead the resistance if there is one. We can supply information for their cause and stay out of the battles.

- One of them is (or used to be) a customer of Roald's father (the butcher)
That might give us an advantage.

- The feud between them is based on a lie.

- The 2 families actually come from the same ancestors.

Cool.

Of course, some of those are unlikely to be heard as rumours, but are likely to be true in the end.

I too would prefer not to get into battle (again)

Are we done at the mayor? Do we want to go back to the inn, or elsewhere?

Can I ask for an aid action from Roald? 😁

+WIS seems good enough.

Let's wait and seen if Roald also feels nervous enough to be overly watchful. There is no real 'aid' mechanic, but two sets of eyes are better than one.

@TheGenerator: Do you want to do anything more with the captain Bimi, or should we skip to seeing if Roald needs his sword? [ref]

We can move on :)
