"Do we have to pay you?" asks Lotus, her tone and wide smile belying either a serious question or sarcasm.

"Depends on the deed you want done. It is all about negotiating and haggling, but I can find buyers for any loot you may acummulate and might want to part with, I shall only ask for a modest trader fee of 25% of the sale price..."

Krenq grunts at the pair discussing things, goes to his bunk, and begins sleeping. Snoring can be heard through his door into the common room.

It seems no one is dropping character. Method actors! Brunhilde has heard of those. What professionals! She decides she will stay in character as well. Humming a tune to herdelf, she lays down her horned helm and looks through her backpack of incredibly authentic props.

The night comes and goes with little activity. Slight noises could be heard outside if anyone listened hard enough but nothing one would consider out of the ordinary. Just as the sun begins to crest the horizon, the door to the long-house door opens. Mynok’s voice rings through Everbody awake. Time for your morning meeting. You have 30 minutes to be back at Chief’s tent.

I yawn, then get out of bed, ready for carnage. I sharpen my axe and the tips of my tusks.

30 minutes! Not nearly enough time for hair and makeup! Ah what am I thinking, I'm supposed to be method acting! Warrior women have no time to get dolled up! Brunhilde rises, washes her face, and heads out ready for anything.

Lotus stretches, still adjusting to the new bed. She spends five minutes reorienting herself while sitting upright, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Not fully awake, Lotus takes another five minutes to fumble into her clothes, and doesn't bother putting up her hair before stepping out of her room with a blanket wrapped around her for extra warmth.
She shuffles her feet audibly on the floor as she makes her way to the designated tent.

Markus puts on his meticulously folded clothes adjusting the collar of his sleeved shirt before donning the armor he makes sure that his blade is clean once more before moving out to the chef's tent. "I wonder why they want us on the chef's tent, there must be some really pressing culinary issue for us to sort out."

As you all walk outside, Mynok is waiting for you. This way. He moves quickly, but not rushed. As you move through the town, you notice that it seems to be a very basic military town. Their are smiths hammering, merchants setting up their wares, people stumbling out of the tavern, men and women buttoning up clothes as they exit the brothel, and many people walking around in armor and weapons. Mynok leads you back to the tent you were in the day before and holds the door open for you. In you go. As you enter, the interior has changed yet again. This time, there are 4 benches facing the far side of the tent with a suspended map and the Dragonborn standing next to it, holding a small dagger. Come, come, sit, sit. the dragonborn bellows.

Lotus sits on the nearest bench, still wrapped in her blanket. She yawns loudly, pulls her legs underneath herself, and tries in vain to hold her head up.

Markus analyses the map to trying to discern if he is familiar with the terrain, but obviously not expecting to recognize anything since he has never been much of a wilderness explorer. He also scans the room for valuables including seeing if the dagger the dragonborn is weilding is richly decorated or just a simple dagger.
"Well That's an improvement."

Brunhilde takes in her surroundings, stares intently at the map, and sits as bidden.

The room is bare, except for the previously mentioned items. The map is simple. It labels the town you are in, Easthaven, and a town to the West, Oxborn. There is a path drawn from your location to the new location.

That's a complicated question. They are the most attacked town in the Grassland. Monsters vary from Kobolds to Orcs to Wyvern. Usually the town guard is more than capable, but lately more and more people have been disappearing and they can't figure out why. Your job will be to investigate and take care of the problem if possible. If you would like, I can send Mynok with you, although that is completely up to you.

He's a very capable arcane magic user, something you lot seem to be missing. He also knows the land and the people. On the downside, if things get physical, he's not much help.
Dec 11, 2017 5:43 pm
Lotus has her head down, apparently listening intently to the conversation. Her attention is so en pointe, not even the barest of snores can be heard.
