"Thank you Griggle, try not to be stirring up trouble in town again... Do it someplace else at least. Farewell"

Adaia will grab what's been offered and follow Agna out.

"All's well that ends well. We were on a clock for resolving the issue and he certainly didn't want to see the situation any other way.
But I see your point - communities need to work together, especially out here."
Aug 13, 2023 11:25 pm
Izuhn shrugs his shoulders. "At least the immediate issue is solved."

He peeks out the door before he leaves. "Now to keep an eye out for those that are left."

OOC:
Ok so you leave him alone and take the adamantine. Add that to you items. You can use it if you find anyone skilled enough or you can sell it to increase your wealth value.

"As long as the humans don't bother me, they wont even notice I'm here" Griggle answers Adaia, though she very much doubts that would be the case...

As Izuhn peeks out the door, he notices the fires are substantially weaken, though not completely gone.
OOC:
If you want to fight off the rest of the (magma) mephits, give me a roll and you have complete freedom to describe how your character helps with the fires.

Let me know where you're going to next" back to the tavern and Helda, looking for Kalannai or Harkin or maybe trying to find Beorn in the Manycoins bank?

"Anyone up for a bit of mephit hunting then, or shall we leave it to the town-folk? I'm still a bit rusty after being on the ship - so I wouldn't mind the target practice."

"Let's get this finished," Agna replies. "No point in leavin' things half-done." Though her abilities provide little in the way of offensive magery, the shaman looks for tracks in the snow and slush, leading the group toward the remaining mephits.
OOC:
Agna is pretty determined to get them on the way to the Dale after this, so she will go hunting after Beorne after wrapping up this detour.

"Lead us straight to them, nice work" as we stand out front of a building that's beginning to smolder and flame.

Adaia holds her hands out and begins to shape the cold. This time a snow fox appears, it seems to be partially made of snow and partially ethereal. It runs towards the building, circles and runs back - barking and howling as it kicks up snow.

"And this should lead them to us, oh that's unfortunate..."

The sprite melts as it makes its way back around, a puddle of water...

OOC:
So Agna tracks down the mephits and Adaia messes up by attracting them! Izuhn's left to clean up the mess :D
Adaia gains one experience with "snow sprites" she can use latter if she uses the spell to summon, or meets, a snow creature

OOC:
I thought my experience would be that I learnt snow melts

"Let's just keep with the melting theme then eh?" Izuhn lifts his hands and twists some of the light from the sun towards the mephits.

Guided by Agna's tracking expertise the group easily find the remaining mephits, who are immediately attracted by Adaia's failed spell. However, Izuhn is prepared and quickly dispatches the weakened elemental creatures. Soon after you heard the loud noises of a crowd approaching. As promised, the miner's militia was gathered to join you. Though a little to late for the fight, the humans and dwarves quickly find themselves busy assessing damages and planning repairs.

Kalannai, who is among those coordinating the militia's efforts notices you. "I see you have dealt with all those pesky little devils" he says as she starts counting coins from her pouch. "Here. A little something from the Fireshear people for your help.". Suddently, a shadow passes over her face as if she realised something uncomfortable she had do deal with. She takes you to a more quiet place before she finishes paying the reward. "We all know Griggle is a bit... different than most folks around here..." she starts explaining, half looking for the right words to use, half still trying to avoid the subject. "There have been questions raised by a number of the townsfolk" she points at the duergar's house where you can see some humans from the militia going. "Some wonder if this whole mess was Griggle's fault... you know, given the affected area.". After a moment of pause she adds grimly "Some even go as far as suggesting exiling the presumed troublemaker. You didn't happen to find if..."
OOC:
That is another experience for Izuhn to use for a future +1 bonus :D
No level up on wealth yet. The reward wasn't that significant. Though Izuhn can eventually "get" one common item for free. Can be seen as a reward from the other dwarves narratively, but mechanistically, it could work as a "Had this all along" wild card

"You want to know something, ask it plain," Agna grumbles. "Him messin' about with that forge o' his made the little pests come, aye. We got rid of 'em for now, but that's yer own problem to handle in the long run."

Considering the matter dealt with, Agna marches off in the tavern's direction. If Helda was wrong and Beorne not awaiting her at the Drunken Dwarf, she would drag him out of the bank no matter what foolery her so-called employer had going on there.

"Giggle had a part to play for sure, as Agna says it dealt with. If you want my advice - keep him in town. Better to keep an eye on him than to let him get up to no good. Thanks for the reward - sure I'll spend some of it at the inn before we're off"

Adaia will follow Agna, she thinks she senses an eagerness to be gone and doesn't want to be left behind.

"Will we be off today then Agna or in the morn?"
Aug 17, 2023 12:12 pm
"At dawn. You saw it too with your earlier castin', aye? It'll be hard weather ahead, and harder still for every hour dawdlin'."
Aug 17, 2023 11:59 pm
"Thank you for the reward. It'll be putting it to good use."

Izuhn eyes Kalannai and the looks over his shoulder back to Griggle's house. "Be careful how quickly you pass judgements. Sometimes the strange ones turn out to be helpful." Izuhn laughs with a huff and then follows after the other too.

"If we're heading out at dawn then we'd best get ready tonight. Let's gather some supplies and then turn in?"
Aug 18, 2023 3:45 am
"Aye. I'll be findin' Beorne first. Come along if ye wish, or else I'll see ye on the morrow. Be awhile afore we'll sleep on beds again," she adds.
Aug 19, 2023 5:19 am
"Sounds like a plan, you're probably the expert on what supplies we might need, shall I secure us lodgings and a meal for the evening?'
Aug 19, 2023 9:04 am
Agna grunts. "Aye, that would help. Be seein' you later, then."

"I see... I feared as much" Kalannai says disappointed with Agna's very clear words. She notes at Adaia's and Izuhn's suggestions "I'll mentioned that to the townsfolk yes... "

As you make your way to the tavern, you hear a familiar voice "Ah! There yer are! We were just going to have a look for ye." You turn to recognize Helda with some of the other dwarf merchants. "Beorne managed to get em letters of credit approved! We can buy em supplies we need for the trip!" Helda friendly pats Agna on her back "We be ready to leave whenever ye is!"
Aug 20, 2023 2:17 am
"That's great! Surely a fresh round of drinks counts as a vital supply, eh?"

Izuhn flashes a smile and makes his way into the midst of the other dwarves.
