Having good heard the entire interaction without being noticed, Reizei came to the conclusion that this might just be the best group of coconspirators he would likely encounter down here. Action was needed, however he did not trust the Drow or his information. It was just as likely in Reizei's mind that he wa planted here to watch from the inside as it was that he was an actual prisoner. He'd continue to keep a vigilant eye on that one.

Under the waychful gaze of his captors nothing could be done. He would wait until they were in the move again. Labor has a way of masking other actions.

Giving Cemos/Bad_forest_monkey a chance to post up some actions during the initial encounter before pushing forward. Additionally, if any of you want to engage with any of the other prisoners, feel free!

Over the two days that he has been a prisoner Dustin would have been curious about the mushroom and fishman and tried to see if they were able to understand him. Trying to find what their story is since he has never encountered such people.

Bildaweer sits down next to Topsy and ask about the work we'll be doing tomorrow, when he thinks they'll take us to the slave markets, his background and his relation to Turvy.

Work? Oh, the labor? Typically it's menial things. Preparing and serving food, washing dishes, cleaning clothes, moving water barrels. If you're lucky, that's all you'll have to do. She says in Undercommon, before pushing on. They haven't had a contingent since Turvy and I were brought here. Maybe a few days, maybe a few tendays. And Turvy? Turvy's my twin brother.

Please update your characters with the languages you speak. :) Dustin, I will provide you with information about your interaction once that is done.

Over the last four days I will have tried to talk with Ront. No wasted words, just where are you from, how did you get here, have you seen a way out? Will he have spoken with me?

A bit unsurprised the fishman couldn't speak the languages he knows he just nods.
Then turning his attention to the mushroon, "Uhm thanks ?" Dustin takes the spoors and sees if they are edible.

After seeing Dustin take the proffered spores, Sprout wiggles, casting a large cloud of the spores, covering Dustin and nearly all of the other denizens of the pens with a fine cloud of yellow dust.

Wonderful. Thanks for agreeing to being spored! Now that you've been dusted, for an hour or so we can communicate telepathically! Not only that, you can talk to OTHER people that way too! Isn't that awesome! Not like being trapped down here, that's for sure. Most people down here won't talk with me. Would you talk with me? A soft voice jabbers into your mind. Stool wiggles excitedly.

At first Dustin almost falls over in surprise.

Sure, I meant to talk to you. I have never quite seen anyone like you. My Name is Dustin, do you have a name ? Dustin tried thinking at the Mushroom since this is the first time this has ever happened.
Yes it is a very amazing ability, I wonder ? He focuses back on the fishman, Hello again not sure you can understand me but this mushroom did something pretty awesome.

Dustin? That's a funny name! My name's Stool!

Shuushar sits bolt upright from where he had leaned himself against the wall. A minor squawk escapes from his fish-like lips.

Mushroom?! How are you speaking in my head? Are you some kind of demon!? A distinctly gurgly voice echoes through your mind.
Nov 23, 2016 6:53 pm
Hello Stool, well you have made a friend. I agree with you it's never fun to be in a cage. How did you end up here ?

Then to Shuushar, I am no demon, this mushroom it's spores seem to let us talk in our heads. Wait I can understand you now. Dustin waves, It's me. I am doing the mental talking but I couldn't do it without this amazing mushroom being. My name is Dustin.
OOC:
Aughhh suddenly want Stool as a familiar.

That evil man captured me. He was trying to use me to talk to prisoners. He's not a good person. I just want to go home again. That's Neverlight Grove, so you know. If you want, I could guide you there, you could stay with us. I'm sure the elders would keep you safe! At least, I could, if we could get out of here. Stool "says" to you, the mental voice getting forlorn and sad at the very end.

Looking about the room, Shuushar sees Dustin waving his hand. I do not understand how it works. However, hearing a friendly voice is welcome. It is probably best that you not continue waving, however. There are some vile Drow in a tower overlooking the gate. They've taken shots into the slave pens before, when people have gotten unruly. It would be better if you were to just sit, and be calm. We don't know where this torment will lead.

Sorry you were captured Stool, I plan on getting out of here. I don't know where anything is down here. So I guess I would need directions to this Neverlight Grove. Then, "Who is an evil man ? One of the Drow ?

Dustin lowered his hand.
My name is Dustin, yes the drow do seem to keep an eye on us. What things have you noticed and if you don't mind me asking what are you, and how did you end up a Prisoner here ?

Have I noticed Reizei watching us?

Reizei, if you are trying to hide your observation, throw me a Deception or Stealth check, your choice.
