As Eronar takes place in the chair, Tinbellow asks him "So, do I shave you bald like your friend over there?", then to answer Chester's query, Tinbellow shrugs "The well is a bit of an oddity, it emits this whistling sound, nobody knows why exactly. It attracts the odd curious, at least those brave, stupid, or desperate enough to come to the Redwall district. Then of course, it's also our local source of water, so you'll have the occasional resident coming there to get a pale full of clean water..."

Scarfs nod to the man about his answer. She takes up residence next to Chester as she likes the scent of his tobacco smoke. She knows that she has kill time at the moment.

Eronar shakes his head, "Just cut it short. Should be good enough or my head's gonna get cold," he says to Tinbellow.

Tinbellow cuts Eronar's hair, as requested. "That'll be 2 gold pieces. Anyone else in need of anything?"

Quick TL;DR for @ChrSch so they're not stock reading 10 pages of posts to catch up.

The only thing that makes sense right now is if we pretend you were part of the group all along...

You all woke up in a dungeon with no memories, weapons drawn, surrounding a dying female adventurer who seemed happy that you "finally broke free" before she died of her wounds. Further inspection revealed the wounds were inflicted in a fight against a wasp-like entity which seems to have taken over your minds and enrolled you all into a cult, probably against your will. While you remember who you are, you have huge gaps in your memories, especially where how you got here and how you got involved into a cult is concerned.

You then proceeded through a sort of "reverse dungeon" which had already been (mostly) cleared by the dead female adventurer you had identified as Annika Crestveil.

You eventually made your way out of the complex where you met a halfling named Belton Freedew who informed you that you were in the Redwall district of Northminster, that you were indeed part of a cult and wanted criminals, knew about someone who could help you with your memories, and that he was willing to smuggle you out of town if you were willing to help him with some errands.

Where the party is at right now, you had just taken care of getting the dried yewclaw bark from Tinbellows and were asking the doctor about the two goblins Muggs and Runns... with a few party member getting a haircut hoping it would alter their appearance enough to not get caught...

So, that should be you all caught up.

Scarfs arranged the purchase of the dried yewclaw bark and is eager to leave. She quietly stands near the door making like a statue or doll.

OOC:
having skimmed over the previous posts, I'm assuming that the doctor/barber has some kind of shop?
Zaiashi is sitting on the floor outside the store crosslegged, keeping watch while trying to be inconspicuous. While he is awaiting the return of his party he is contemplating the new turns his life has taken.

OOC:
Yes, Tinbellow's Medical Practice to be more exact.
As Zaiachi waits outside, he catches a fragment of conversation from two passerbys.

"...yeah, found him in that alley over there, wasn't much left o' him..."

"Waddya mean?'

"Just bones and torn clothes really, like something ate his flesh and left the rest behind...
Mar 3, 2024 1:27 pm
After listening to the conversation Zaiashi gets up and goes into the medical clinic to inform his companions about what he has heard but when he spots Roark he throws Welcome to the guild of wise men, Roark into the room before informing the others.

So, you're done getting your head shaved, Zaiashi who has always been with you (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) enters and informs you of a rumor he just heard concerning a dead body.

What do you do?
Mar 13, 2024 9:30 pm
Scarfs ask the keep, "Where is a good place to some boots? Seems mine are need some replacement."
Mar 13, 2024 9:48 pm
"That would be The Thrifty Griffon." Tinbellows answers.
Mar 14, 2024 10:08 pm
Scarfs asks sweetly, I'm a tad new here. Ah. Could you aid me with perhaps some directions. I really do want some new boots. She looks to the others like this is where we are going.

Zaiashi sighs and silently shakes his head, but smiles a little at how easily Scarfs seems to disregard potential trouble.

From Tinbellow's and Belton's directions, as well as what you've walked so far, you can estimate roughly the following map...

With A being where you exited the complex, B being the Thrifty Griffin, C being the Whistling Well (where you should in theory find Runns and Muggs), and D being Tinbellow's Medical Practice, where you currently are all located.

"Runns and Muggs are close by. Lets take care of them. I can get my new boots afterwards."
Mar 16, 2024 8:44 am
"That seems to be a good idea. Are you all ready to go? a hint of impatience is tinging Zaiashi's voice.
Mar 16, 2024 3:19 pm
Yes, I am ready. Let’s move on.

You make your way north of Tinbellow's practice towards the Whistling Well. Eventually, just following the low whistling sound is enough to guide you. Near an old worn well, you spot two goblins. The larger one wears a large sweater and a bowler hat and is currently smoking a cigar. The smaller of the pair is wearing a long trench coat. The area around the well seems large enough to be used as a meeting place if need be, but right now, there is nobody here except you and the two goblins.

Garbuffel looks down the well. Will it fit a goblin?
