Tell
Tell never seems to be a morning person when he's sleeping indoors. Moaning for the elf to leave him along, he turns over and goes back to sleep.
Some time later he comes down, looking grumpy, and joins Megiddo at breakfast. He suggest which items they should identify...

Grigor, human cleric
After sharing a few more drinks with his new friend, Grigor finally goes to bed.
The next morning he rises relatively early, eager to tell his companions about him. After all, they are scheduled to meet at the sage's place later this morning.
"Morning guys, guess what? I met a bard here last night. One Redithidoor Halfmoon. Seems like he knows a bit about the old moat houses' history. He's going to come over to the seer's place later, wouldn't you wnt to come along and see what the two can share with us?"

"I have some small business to attend to first, but given two or threee hours, I should be ready to pursue this action."
Presumably he would have found some place to purchase spell components and crafting supplies, he will go and do his shopping, buying components for two scrolls, and and a pearl for an identify spell. He will then return to his quarters to prepare the scrolls and identify the shortsword Tell had indicated as a priority for identification.

Re: Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil (IC): Thread 2
Inn of the Welcome Wench: Planting 10, Morning
Vesta is already up and keeping an eye on the inn when Megiddo comes down. She suggests that there might be a few worthwhile items amid the odds and ends of the Old Trading Post. Failing that, Spugnoir (( the guy you found in the moathouse )) or an elven scrollmaker by the name of Zerosh Nubric probably have supplies the would be willing to sell or trade.
Not long after Tell finishes his breakfast, Redithidoor enters the inn. Though no longer dressed in his performance clothes, he only makes a slightly better impression. He seems to have made an attempt to keep up with current fashions without really understanding them. Everything from his hat to his boots is of a fine and attractive cut on its own, but in actually assembling the pieces, Redithidoor made a number of wrong decisions. Nothing really complements anything else, and in a few cases, they actually fight each other for attention.
The bard takes a moment to scan the room before finding his friend from the night before. “Ah, Grigor, my friend! You haven’t left without me. Good!” He holds his arms out as he heads for Grigor and Tell’s table.The Future just ain’t what it used to be.

Inn of the Welcome Wench: Planting 10, Morning
(( Ah, yes. I should probably give the result of the identify, at least. ))
After studying the sword, Megiddo finds that it simply holds the most basic of enchantments to enhance its performance (( shortsword +1 )).
He also takes a look at a potion that Tell left. It is one of the more potent healing potions one can make (( potion of cure serious wounds )).

Grigor, human cleric
Grigor is pretty upbeat as he joins breakfast. The last night was quite enjoyable after all and the morning promises to become interesting. In the good way.
"Okay people, that bard guy, Redthidoor, is going to join us shortly. Now the poor guy loves a good story as much as any other bard, so how about you tell him your versions of what happened in the moathouse cellars? Especially since one of us defeated an evil cleric all by himself!" Grigor suggests with a wink.
When Redthidoor finally shows up, Grigor wonders about his lack of fashion sense. He decides to joke about it and says "Heh, seems like you finagled every tailor in town to give you a commission for showing of their finest pieces, eh? Good job! ", adding a hearty and good-natured laugh at the end.

Tell nods a greeting at the newcomer.
As Megiddo hands hin the curved short sword and explains that it has "merely the most trivial of enchantments," Tell weighs it in his hand and evaluates it. Then he holds it out hilt-first to Redithidoor.

Grigor, human cleric
"Tell can do whatever he wishes with his share of the loot." says Grigor, "and you should take a leaf from Olidamarra's teachings and not be too hung up about wordly posessions. A sword, in it's essence, is barely more then a sharpened metal club. What gives it it's worth is the person who wields it, for good or for ill. And if this 'most minor of enchantments' helps a friend of song and dance to spread joy among the poeple, on account of it helping him to fend of bandits maybe, then it is doing more good then merely being sold off for mere gold."
He reaches over and pats the mage on the shoulder "Fear not, we will certainly unearth more ill-gotten riches from these sunken halls, you will get to do your research. Right now, however, there is some other kind of research that needs doing. Come, let us go see the Seer!"
Grigor gets up, eager to meet the sage and maybe learn more about the secrets hidden under the old moathouse.

Todariche Nem’s House: Late Morning
Todariche Nem lives in a medium-sized house on the north end of Hommlet. The house and grounds are well maintained, with a few white flowers growing along the base of the house’s wall.
Upon knocking at his door, a voice calls from inside, “All right! I’m coming!” A few moments later, the door opens, revealing a short, middle-aged human man with graying hair and a large nose. He takes a moment to look over the group before muttering to himself, “Interesting…”The Future just ain’t what it used to be.

Tell surveys the white flowers. He decides to pick a few and start popping their leaves in his mouth. If they're edible, he's doing it because he's hungry; if he knows they're not edible, he's doing it almost as if to test that fact. (He spits them out if they're bitter, as most non-edible plants are.)I just published my first novella, Lúnasa Days, a modern fantasy with a subtle, uncertain magic.
