The Lands of Un-Life: Main thread

[lord pringle]

Rynab picks at his food and drums his fingers on the table impatiently.

Lubbi displays his lack of table manners, picking at the food with his fingers.

"What?"

"Right, forks..."

I wonder what his shortness has in mind?

Should I begin now any way?

[lord pringle]

The gnome king sighs and says "Well the reason I've called you here today is so that you can investigate what is going on in the monastery of Obad-Hai. The town is suffering due to the lack of farmers. WE NEED HELP!"

[peterpaulrubens]

"Do you know why the farmers keep going to Obad-Hai?"

[lord pringle]

"Do you know why the farmers keep going to Obad-Hai?"

For he is the god of crops and has helped us many a time before

[Lix Lorn]

"I'll be glad to help!" said Emily, brightly.

[lord pringle]

"I'll be glad to help!" said Emily, brightly.

"Thank you Emily." says the gnome king.

Well, the good of the town is certainly important and nobody wants missing farmers so I'm in in theory. In practice, however, I have a burning interest in the subjects of rewards.

[peterpaulrubens]

Well, herding farmers back to town isn't the height of adventure, but it beats watching the goblin pick his nose at the pub.

"Your Majesty, it would be my privilege to assist the town." Rynab bows to His Majesty as he speaks.


Hopefully this will turn into something interesting, and maybe even a bit profitable.

[Ernir]

"Yeah, Marco has a point, yer highness. What... exactly is in this fer us?"

"Owing the whole town of Ashmead a favor sounds good, eh? Also any item you find or the priests want to give you."

[Ernir]

The goblin looks at the feast set before him, and replies:
"Yes, perhaps the town owing us wouldn't be such a bad idea..."

"Is thar anything else yer highness can tell us about this task yer puttin' us on, or ar'we runnin' in blind?"

"if I knew would I be hiring the most powerful adventurers this side of the Salnor?"

[Lix Lorn]

"Ain't nothing can stop us once we get going." said Emily with a winning smile.

[acid_ninja]

Having the town owe me would save on rent.
Okay your majesticness, your blatant appeal to my ego has succeeded. So we go to the temple of Obad-Hai and find out what's been happening to the farmers. Seems straightforward enough.

He looks around at the others.
Shall we finish this lovely meal and leave in the morning?

"Good"

"No. Time is of the essence. I have provisions prepared. We leave after dinner."

[peterpaulrubens]

"After dinner works just fine for me."

[lord pringle]

"After dinner works just fine for me."

"I'm happy it works for you."

[Lix Lorn]

Emily pouted.
"Okay, but someone's gotta apologise to Henry." she said.

[lord pringle]

Emily pouted.
"Okay, but someone's gotta apologise to Henry." she said.

The gnome king sighs and says "I'll tell 'im"

[Lix Lorn]

"Thanks, your majesty." she said, standing, and curtseying with a childish, almost flirtatious giggle.

[Ernir]

"So, as soon as I'm done with this har chicken, let's go." he says, and assaults a roasted chicken, the fork again forgotten.

OoC: should I timeskip till after dinner?

[peterpaulrubens]

OOC: absolutely.

[lord pringle]

as you guys are going on the three day hike is there anything that you want to do.

[peterpaulrubens]

Rynab buys 3 days worth of food for his horse.

Other than that I'm good.

[Lix Lorn]

Spoiler

Show

Nope, I'm shiny. Le's go!

[Ernir]

Lubbi buys a pony and 3 days worth of feed before setting out.

[lord pringle]

Anything you want to watch for on the hike?

[peterpaulrubens]

Anything you want to watch for on the hike?

Rynab is ever-vigilant for signs of danger, but he's not really into bird- watching or anything.

[Lix Lorn]

Yeah, same.
