The man stares red-eyed at Izuhn, grunting, and complaining about how he "goootta bewalk deerood". He awkwardly manages to get up, slowly and unsteadily walking away.

While the three of you find out that, for one reason or another, you are all joining the Luskar Deliverers sailing north, moves closer to look at the unconscious human. "Are you ok?" she asks Izuhn at first, but then extends the question to the others. "You shouldn't be walking alone in a city like this one" she adds to Agna, mostly out of habit than real worry, having just seen how she easily knocked out one of the two thugs. She grabs the man's arm, exposing his tattoo, and taking a while to inspect it. "Ship Suljack..." she stands up and looks around, her eyes stopping briefly at an armed group just idly standing nearby.
OOC:
Questions about anything, you can ask or roll some history anytime :D

"I'm okay, don't fret for me", the red haired dwarf waves off the concern.

"That tattoo mean something to you, Emryn?" A look of concern grows on his face as Emryn visually sweeps the area.

Agna harrumphs at the woman's concern. "I live outside the Ten Towns by my lonesome. You don't need to worry about me. Now, what's this about sailing? Might be that I know a thing or two about the Dale, but I'm not one who spends much time on the water."

"Yes yes, it’s Ship Suljack‘s symbol. The thug is probably a new member. Emryn tells Izuhn, looking at the armed group again. "Probably got himself in deep trouble just now"

She turns to Agna as she mentions sailing. "Sailing? You mean the Ships? The Ships of Luskan?"

Jan 10, 2023 11:10 pm
Agna scowls, nonplussed by the woman's manner. "I do not know. You were the one who made mention that we would sail. I was told by Beorne that I'd be guiding a caravan across the Dale, not standing atop some creaking raft."

"Now now, ladies no need to get agitated. I'm sure there's just some sort of misunderstanding here that we can easily clear up. Right Emryn?" Izuhn looks towards the trader with a look of slight desperation.

Laughing under my breath ,The problem we have, Agna, is that "The Ships" making big quotation marks with my hands, The ships are the local pirates that run Luskan. You'll never make it in, out, or through Luskan without some sort of toll or processing fee on your goods

Emryn pauses for a moment, as if trying to remember who Beorne is. "Oh, the dwarf merchant, you mean? I heard they are not coming to Luskan this time. There's rumors of an early winter that could close off the roads north soon. Everyone is trying to get what they can to Icewind Dale before it's too late". Emryn quickly glances at Izuhn, as if justifying her request.

"Luskar Deliverers can work by land, but as your friend said this is a city of pirates. They would rather prefer the sea. It is also faster if you're looking to save time... or make money faster."

Once the situation is clarified, Emryn shifts between her legs as she looks at Agna. "So you're the guide then?" She lets the question in her mind slip out of her mouth. It looks like rumors spread very fast around here...
OOC:
I can see some insight checks here if you don't trust her, given the rocky start.

With her brows drawing together at the woman's continued words, Agna's face tightens for a moment before it abruptly clears. She lets out a loud sigh. "I am the guide, yes," she says slowly. "I understand you city folk less the more time I spend around you. If we are to travel by sea, let it be so. I will go."

Lady Emryn, I was looking to travel with you to ten towns, If you've the space, I am good at a great number of jobs from Armorer to Warrior and almost anything in between. As I know my worth, I'll not work for free; but, I would be willing to negotiate based on your needs.

Agna's comment about her confusion with "the city folk" brings a smile to Emryn, as she shows some recognition for what it might mean to be a recluse in Icewind Dale.She then turns to Fizel and it looks like she is going to reply to his business proposal...

Now before you say no, I don't think you'll be coming along on this trip and It would do you some good to have someone there that had his employers best wishes at heart. shall we say 2 gold per day for the trip? after the trip is done, I'll fend for meself.

OOC:
you know your chances are slim so I’ll need a real success on a persuasion for her to even negotiate here (though the difference between 1 or 2 or 20 gp are only for RPing purposes here)

(OOC she basically hired the luskan deliverers already whom you want to join anyway)

OOC:
For some reason i thought she was the boss of the deliverers, scratch all that
Nothing to see here, move along

OOC:
Ah right, yeah I think she only introduced herself to Izuhn. I'm testing how a game goes using the private, but let me know if it is gets too confusing having each one of you actually getting different information :D
Emryn Dawe
Emryn stops as Fizel continues. She shifts her weight to another leg as the dwarf tries to persuade her that having someone keeping best wishes at heart is priceless. "Well, I must say you do make a good point. The way to Icewind Dale is treacherous, specially in winter... and I can see you have some skill with magic..." she slowly starts replying to the proposition. "I am only sending my cargo north but, as you said, I'm not going myself. I hired Luskar Deliverers to move it." She carefully looks at Fizel, clearly measuring him. "Maybe you can still help me if you join them. They are always in need of extra hands. I heard the pay is not bad".

OOC:
looks like that were problems replying to this thread.

Should be fine now, but if it happens again, bowl checked the OOC and it was working, so you can still post elsewhere :D
Jan 12, 2023 9:44 pm
Ahh, thank you my lady, I will do that indeed.
Jan 13, 2023 11:37 am
Izuhn eyes the other dwarf curiously for a moment and then speaks his agreement. "Indeed, I certainly won't complain about having another couple of hands along. Especially if they're friendly!" Izuhn flashes a brief and slightly exaggerated smile.

A glance upward at the wintry sky lets Agna gauge the time of day. "Best we get moving instead of tarrying further then. I was told the warehouse is across the bridge."
