Bughu nods. "It's going to go somewhere. Let's head inside the inn and see what we can learn."

You enter the inn and find it like most others that you've been to. The cultists have taken a seat in the corner and immediately notice you enter. The wool-capped man nods to you and raises his glass to acknowledge you.

Bughu tips his head in a nod, and looks for a table big enough to accommodate the group.

Most of the tables in the room are full at this point, but you do spot one near to the center of the room that is available.

Erich follows along, smiling at the wool-capped man's acknowledgement. When they find their table he sits down and scans the room for someone that can set him up with ale and meat.

Bughu takes a seat, and mindful that the tavern has ears, says, "We'll need to look for work, as well."

As Bughu is speaking, a young man stops by your table, "What can I get for you today?" he asks with a pleasant smile. After taking the order, "And you also said you're looking for work? What kind of business are you in? Maybe I can point you in the right direction?"

"We're sellswords, I suppose," says Bughu. "Just finished a job escorting a caravan here."

"Well, there's plenty of that to be had around here," the lad says, nodding sagely, "If you'd like, you could probably get hired on as a guard with any of the wagons heading north OR south of here. They leave every day, pretty much!"
As you are speaking to the lad, one of the cultists stands and excuses himself from his table, making his way outside.

"Old Hector is the one you'd want to speak to," the lad says, "He oversees the movement of caravans through the city."
May 4, 2018 8:13 pm
Bughu nods, and places a gold coin on the table before the lad. "Where is Old Hector, and can we speak to him now?"
May 7, 2018 8:23 pm
"Old Hector's probably at the warehouse by the gates," the lad says, scooping up the coin deftly and then pointing through the wall toward the north side of town, "Lots of work being done on the road so we can get connected with Neverwinter again, so he's usually there. Big place with a sign on it with a picture of a wagon."
May 7, 2018 8:29 pm
Bughu, puts down another coin. "Do you know if those fellows over there are signing up with Old Hector?" He only tips his eyebrows in the direction of the cultists' table.

While Bughu chats with the server, I turn towards Elrich. "Care for a drink? You’re lookin’ thirsty."

Aye, another pint would be delightful. The endless miles of overhills travel didn't leave much tongue wetting time. he says, happily.
May 10, 2018 8:56 pm
"I'm... not sure," the lad says, looking over to where the remaining cultists sit, "If they're heading out on a caravan, then probably."
May 10, 2018 9:17 pm
"Tell you what," Bughu says, "there's another coin in it for you if you can find out... without letting them know we were interested."
May 10, 2018 10:11 pm
I whistle to the nearest drink carrier and signal for a round to be brought to us. "May as well enjoy ourselves."
May 14, 2018 8:36 pm
The boy's eyes light up and he nods, "I'll let you know what I find out," he says, moving away without waiting for any more prompting.
A serving woman stops by the table, "What can I do for ya, miss?" she says to Xalana with a curtsy.
