37 looks to the ceiling. You get the impression that if he breathed, this would be a huge sigh.

"Again... this isn't about helping her. Making sure she leaves town benefits us. Once she's on a rail, she can't swing back around for another try and she can't go report in. We're removing her from the equation without killing her in cold blood," 37 explains a bit slowly. "She would have to be suicidal to try and jump off, and the next stop is a ways away."

As he talks, he will rifle through her component pouch and remove any feathers or down, preventing her from another casting of Feather Fall -- ensuring she can't jump off the train.

Kleber raises his hands in surrender. "I get it, just complaining about how our work has increased.".

"That's all work ever does, my friend. And the more you do, the more you have."

37 moves towards the door. "I will be back shortly."

The elf shifts again at Kleber’s comment of removing fingers. "I don’t have much gold on me. I have a stash of course, but I doubt you would want to go out of your way. My arrows in that quiver are rather expensive. About fifty gold each.", she looks at Kleber’s bow and quiver. "Perhaps the ten of those added to your collection will save my hands from mutilation?", her voice squeaks and she swallows hard as she waits for Kleber’s response.

"That does sound to be quite the reputation for the crime I would say. Let us all take a trip out of town quietly before we have further troubles, and we can decide where to her at." Core really wants to get this mess all cleaned up without further bloodshed.

Core will pack up what was removed from her and head upstairs to retrieve the rest leaving the rest of the party to get ready for exiting.

Kleber rolls his eyes at the elf. "C'mon, I just said we wouldn't do that. Besides it's just a finger, any competent healer could regrow it in a day."

Walking over to check said fancy arrows, Kleber keeps talking. "Fiffty gold for an arrow...now I kind of feel guilty about taking them".
When he bends over to examine the quiver, his back wound is pulled, and he grunts in pain.
"Forget what I just said."

Malbor speaks for the first time.
His usual low whispering voice sounds even more sinister than usual.

"She appears to be telling the truth."

OOC:

The roll is just for added drama. Not really important I suppose, since we've probably gotten everything we can out of her.

Kleber. Those arrows are upstairs with her bow and anything else that look like a weapon or was connected to one. but Core is bring them down to look at.

OOC:

Thought we took her upstairs? Why would we be dealing with wounds and interrogating someone in a hotel lobby where anyone can wander by and see? Including assassins and people who may run to the guards?

OOC:

I thought you were upstairs too. Earic certainly isn’t in the lobby.

Apr 21, 2023 12:20 am

OOC:

I thought we were downstairs in some adjacent room like a meet room or such. I didn't realize we all went upstairs. Ignore my posting party about going upstairs to get her gear and such.

The elf relaxes a little, "They’re walloping arrows. I use them to slow those chasing me..."

Earic has been sitting in quiet contemplation, "If she’s telling the truth and is being hunted, perhaps we should leave soon. I don’t know how wise it is to spend time dropping her anywhere. However, she clearly knows where we’re going. Does she still mean to complete her original task? In that case, I say leave her here for this assassin. If not, cut her loose, or take her with us and allow me to prove to her that I am not a traitor."

Unhappy at the politics of this, partially because he is sure he is not quite catching and the nuances that still might kill him, he gathers up all his gear. He was looking forwards to a good rest. If we're going to go lets go. But where are we going? Earic, is there someone or somewhere you will be safe. I assume you still want to report and get assistance in reclaiming the wreckage.

"The plan hasn’t changed, my dear Gzizmix. We’re still going to New Cyre. It feels all the more imperative now. It’s a day’s journey south from here.", he stares at Gwenylleth for a moment before addressing her, "You seem misguided, but truthful, Ms. Gwenylleth. So I ask, is your task to steal my journal complete? If so, we could take you with us to a new opportunity in New Cyre."

Gwenylleth

The elven spy startles the group as she stands, allowing the ropes to fall loose to the floor. However, she neither runs, nor attacks. "The job is done. My safest bet is under your protection for now. New Cyre it is Mr. Finnini. Let us see what your supposed non-traitors have to say."

Earic Finnini

Earic nods, and says to the group. "Gentlemen, if there are no objections, it seems we’ve picked up a passenger. Keep her gear and her pouch. I’ll double your pay for this inconvenience, but we must leave at once." He begins quickly gathering his belongings. "Core, do be so kind as to prepare the cart."

Apr 25, 2023 5:56 am

Core says, Sure. Lets get out of here now. He prepares his gear and then heads down to bring the cart around to load everyone aboard. And then we go into the night.

Vice groggily walks into the room wearing a set of owlbear pyjamas. Rubbing his eyes, he looks from the elf woman to group and asks, "Did I miss something?"
