Vice isn't listening, he just keeps saying "Diamond dust, diamond dust, diamond dust, . . . ok will do, you help Virtue, I'll get the diamond, wait, who is Harry? How many people are in this town?!

Meepo follows the group into the temple and listens to Mother Jahanah need for components. As Vice declares he will go look for Harry Meepo turns to him. "Meepo will go look too. If we both look hopefully we will find Harry twice as fast."

In their panic to help Virtue, Vice and Meepo forget they’ve been to Harry’s shop a few times before.

"Right, right, got it, going. Do you need anything else while . . . No, sorry nevermind." Vice says as he rushes out the door, mumbling the words 'diamond dust'

37 shakes his head as he watches the two rush off. There is no sound, so it makes it difficult to tell if he shares Mother Jahanah's exasperation or if he is simply amused.
"They mean well. Not everyone handles stress... the way we do," 37 says quietly once the others are gone. "And that is a good thing, I think. The world is harsh enough, it makes me... happy... to know some people haven't been beaten down as we have." Turning his full attention to Mother Jahanah, 37's tone shifts to one that is far more serious. "How can I help?"

Mother Jahanah ushers Dubdub and 37 into the temple. Even in the dark, it is obvious the sanctuary is modestly decorated. A statue of a woman paladin is immediately to the right. A tall, silver arrowhead adorns the wall opposite the statue. a few rows of wooden pews face a small altar and elegantly carved podium.
"She will need water as soon as she can handle it.", she says to 37, "She will also need a lot of rest afterward. Someone will need to tend to her during her recovery. For now, be ready if she awakes."
The druid carefully lays the unconscious goblin on the altar. "Should we release her bonds?", Dubdub asks as he reaches for Meepo's rope.
The cleric gently, but firmly places her hand over Dubdub's, "If anything goes wrong, those ropes will be needed. Leave them.", she gives 37 a look only a soldier would understand, "I have no idea what her condition may be if this goes well, 37. I only know that quick decisions may have to be made if this does not go as planned."
The Mother, reaches into her robe and pulls out a beautiful etched silver arrowhead. She closes her eyes and begins to speak an incantation.

Vice and Meepo arrive at the provisioner shop to find it closed and locked for the day.
Vice is still with disadvantage.

Both of you, roll me a perception check.Vice is still with disadvantage.

Laulalith ducks into an alley and uses the magic of her medallion to take on the appearance of a drunk male scavenger. Then she staggers down the road keeping an eye on their tabaxi shadow and her two diminutive companions as she follows them to the provisioner.

"I suppose it was too optimistic to expect him to still be here." Vice says, looking around. He really doesn't want to have to steal the dust, but he will if he has to.

The 'drunken' Laulalith makes her way up the street. Sassy moves to a more comfortable position to watch the Guardians actions. The concealed elf can see that the tabaxi is simply observing for now. She does catch the scrapper gesture to an unseen person, sending them in the direction of the other side of town. Laulalith pieces together that the other person must have been sent to keep an eye on Vice and Meepo. The grey tabby then casually watches, while sipping on a bottle of ale. By the time Laulalith reaches the end of the street, the person is no longer visible.
Meanwhile, on the north side of town, Vice scopes out Mr. Brindles establishment and can tell that the building does not have any living quarters. Harry Brindle must live somewhere else in town and is no longer in his shop.

14 is really good, I'll still wait for Meepo's check before we proceed.Jun 11, 2025 7:24 pm
Perception check. Meepo nods at Vices comment. "Well if he's not here then that is what Meepo is here for. We can split up and look for him. Find him twice as fast with two than with just one."

Looking around at options, Meepo notices a faint glow of light coming from the apothecary shop down the street.

"Do you think he could be over there?" Meepo points to the apothecary shop before he starts heading in that direction.

Vice shrugs and says "Can't hurt to check, but let's hurry" before he starts walking

Vice quietly taps on the window, hoping not to startle the shopkeep, in case those are dangerous ingredients.

"If you’re looking for cheroot, this isn’t that kind of shop. Check the Beyond, there’s usually someone there."

Meepo holds out a finger as he says "um, hi, actually we aren't looking for that. We saw your light on from Harrys shop. We were looking for him as we are in immediate need of diamond dust and need to find some quickly. Would you may know where we can find him or some diamond dust?"
