[Tue Jun 15 18:41:33 CDT 1999]

[GM]: The thief is hoping for a deal ... he is going to help you get a map.
[GM]: ....for his freedom.
[Sir Cornelius]: Time for the map...lead the way
[GM]: He just lead you to Bilko's Blades and you are just about to enter the door.
Jamison follows SC and the thief
Jamison scans the surrounding street area
[GM]: Some of the vendors are beginning to close up show... only a few of them, though.
[GM]: There is increased 'through traffic' in the streets.
[GM]: Okay, what is Cornelius doing?
[Sir Cornelius]: following the thief into the shop...at a small distance behind
[GM]: ...and Jamison is behing Cornelius?
[GM]: behind
Sir Cornelius knows that his word is good when it comes to the thief...and hopes the thief does too :)
[Jamison]: yes
[Jamison]: Let's get the map, SC.
[GM]: The thief enters the shop and leaves the door open.
[GM]: He proceeds to the counter.
Sir Cornelius follows, entering the shop
Sir Cornelius looks around the shop for customers
[GM]: Behind the counter is the owner of the shop .... Bilko.
Jamison enters the shop and surveys its occupants.
[GM]: There is another person on your side of the counter in conversation with Bilko, but he stop talking as the door opens.
[GM]: Bilko waves at the thief.
[GM]: Bilko: Hello Dirk!
[GM]: Bilko begins to show a look of concern as the Cornelius enters behind him.
[GM]: Bilko: Is there any kind of trouble (to Cornelius)
[GM]: Dirk: Goes up to Bilko and begins to talk quietly with him.
[GM]: Customer: Moves away and begins to browse.
[Sir Cornelius]: "Just business my friend..."
Jamison eyes the customer closely.
[Sir Cornelius]: "Interesting things are all about these days."
[GM]: Bilko: Looks at Dirk and says, "Really .... a deal with a knight?"
[GM]: Bilko looks at customer, "We will have to finish our talk later, Jon"
[GM]: Jon (Customer) No, Problem ... I will see ya tomorrow.
[GM]: Jon moves to exit the shop.
Sir Cornelius begins to look at the merchandise...even knowing that there is nothing that will interest him
Jamison looks at Jon "Interesting merchandise in this shop.."
[GM]: Bilko moves out from behing the counter.
[GM]: Jon tips his hat and smiles at Jamison, "Good evening young man"
[Sir Cornelius]: "Still, some Dwarven steel would make it more intriguing."
[GM]: Jon exits the shop.
[GM]: Bilko: Still looking for
[GM]: Bilko: Dwarven steel, huh?
Jamison steps out of the shop to watch Jon leave the area
[Sir Cornelius]: OOC: I never met Bilko
[GM]: Bilkon closes and locks the door and begins to pull the shades down.
[Sir Cornelius]: Where I come from...everyone knows the quality of Dwarven goods...
[GM]: My apprentice told my that you were in earlier looking for such weapons (to Cornelius)
[Sir Cornelius]: Perhaps you would like me to see whether I can arrange a small shipment of it?
[GM]: Bilko: Of course, I get many such orders for Dwarven steel ......
[GM]: Bilko: Perhaps ... but I think that we might have other business to talk about at this time.
[Sir Cornelius]: True enough.
[GM]: Bilko: Looks at Dirk.
Sir Cornelius looks about for something to lean back on
[GM]: Bilko: With the Orc raiders hitting the borderlands .... Dwarven steel has become rare.
[GM]: Bilko finishes lowering all of the shades.
[GM]: Bilko: Dirk, get the light please.
[Jamison]: Enough banter SC, get on with it...
[GM]: Dirk moves over and touches a lamp and says the word, "Light"
[GM]: Bilko: Let's proceed to the back room.
[GM]: Bilko: Dirk would you get the door.
Jamison follows
[GM]: Dirk moves behind the counter and opens the door and waits for the two men to enter.
[Sir Cornelius]: My young friend, it is good that we take a moment to get acquainted...even as much as I desire to get on with things. It's not every day that you find a knight and a squire making deals...
[GM]: Bilko: The facilities in the back are much better.
Sir Cornelius leaves the rest of the thought go unsaid...
[Sir Cornelius]: Lead on
[GM]: Bilko: Of course, most people in these parts know me....
[GM]: Bilko: I don't often make deals with strangers. ... but it seems that I might be making an exception.
Sir Cornelius follows Bilko as a comfortable, non-threatening distance.
[GM]: Bilko shrugs his shoulders and heads for the door.
[GM]: Bilko: Gentlemen follow me.
[Sir Cornelius]: "Strange times make for strange companionships"
[Jamison]: Agreed, SC.
[GM]: Bilko: Proceeds down a short hall and to a back room with a table and chairs.
[GM]: Dirk watches the two men.
Sir Cornelius sits opposite the store owner
[Jamison]: And you , Dirk, can come with us.
[GM]: The backroom is lit by two lamps attached to the walls.
[GM]: Dirk proceeds to the back room with Jamison.
Jamison follows Dirk into the back room.
[Sir Cornelius]: Young Dirk was a little sloppy earlier today. Perhaps someone with more experience would not have been caught.
[GM]: Dirk sits in the seat facing the hallway.
Jamison remains stnding and guards the doorway.
[GM]: Bilko: I do try to help my cousin .... but he seems to always be getting himself into trouble.
[GM]: Bilko: He has had a difficult time finding work....
Sir Cornelius nods...yes, he said that you might be able to help him this evening
[GM]: Bilko speaks to Dirk: I might be able to, but my aid is at the point of running out.
[GM]: Bilko: If anything else happens, perhaps Dirk will be going before the courts.
[Sir Cornelius]: Perhaps...but he is not my concern this evening. I have a rather straightforward proposition for you.
[GM]: Bilko: You said .... a deal for my cousins freedom?
[GM]: Bilko: Sir knight?
[Sir Cornelius]: Just a map...and some information
[GM]: Bilko: Ahhhh.... a map ..... eveyone wants a map!
[Sir Cornelius]: A "high quality" map....
[GM]: Bilko: I am beginning to think that the map business in not my cup of tea.
[GM]: Bilko: I should stick to other things.
[GM]: Bilko: What kind of map would you be wanting.
Sir Cornelius raises an eyebrow... Perhaps what you might gain from the giving of the map though...is more along your lines...?
[Sir Cornelius]: The Baron's castle is very well guarded.
[GM]: Bilko: Smiles .... the Baron's castle, huh?
Sir Cornelius stares back
[GM]: Bilko: You are not the first one that has asked me that question .... this very day.
[Sir Cornelius]: Indeed?
[GM]: Bilko: I have such a map .... but I have already made a deal to sell it.
[Sir Cornelius]: Of course, it would have to have many details...that you would not find on an ordinary map...for it to be of use to use.
[Sir Cornelius]: us
[GM]: What kind of details are you talking about?
[GM]: Details of the Baron's castle, per say?
[Sir Cornelius]: Many details...yes. Out of the way places...hidden entrances and exits...guard locations...traps...magic......
Sir Cornelius says that last word with some thought
[GM]: Bilko: Well, I don't think there is such a map ....
[GM]: Bilko: Perhaps, you need to bribe one of the Baron's employee for that kind of information....
[Sir Cornelius]: Not even the great Bilko can produce such a thing?
[Sir Cornelius]: Perhaps your cousin has overestimated you
[GM]: Bilko (smiles widely): Of course, I can .... for a price.
[Jamison]: It seems the price is your cousin's freedom...
[GM]: Bilko: But the merchandise I was speaking of is not exactly what you have asked for.
[GM]: Bilko: ....and worth more than my cousins freedom, I am afraid.
Sir Cornelius smiles a small smile. Oh?
[GM]: Bilko: I have made a deal to sell it ....... for $500 soverign.
[GM]: Bilko: No, cousin is worth that kind of money (He frowns at Dirk)
[GM]: Dirk drops his head.
[GM]: CORRECTION
Sir Cornelius laughs a short deep laugh. Perhaps you would like us to pick up a gold brick for you on the way out....
[GM]: CORRETION: 500 soverign.
[GM]: OOC: 500 soverign = $10,000
[GM]: Bilko: It is quite a bit of gold.
Jamison clears his throat.
[GM]: Bilko: Perhaps you would give my cousin his freedom for a look at the merchandise?
[GM]: Bilko: You can be the judge in the value of a look at it.
[Jamison]: A look and a guide.
[GM]: Bilko: I think that you will be happy.
Sir Cornelius glances up at his friend
[GM]: Bilko(Looks at Dirk): What about my cousin ... seems fitting that he should have the chance to earn his freedom.
Jamison looks at SC, "Seems only fair to me."
[GM]: Bilko(Smiles at Jamison): What about it Sir knight?
[Sir Cornelius]: What do you say Dirk...would you care to join an interesting expedition? Perhaps...a rewarding one for you....?
[GM]: Bilko: Dirk, you could earn enough gold on this mission .... to get your way to the northest as you have been wanting.
[GM]: Dirk raises his head.
[GM]: Bilko: You could even open a shop of your own...... Isn't that your dream?
[GM]: Dirk smiles: Aye, that is my dream. The city is nothing but trouble for me.
Sir Cornelius looks back at the man sitting across from him... "Of course, we will need the map...to ensure his safety. Wouldn't you think Bilko?"
Jamison prods Dirk, "Quit stalling, this is your chance."
[GM]: Bilko: I don't know about giving you the map.
[GM]: Bilko: It is very valuable.
[Jamison]: Let's call it a loan...
[GM]: Bilko: What kind of collateral would I have.
[GM]: Bilko: If your mission fails ..... I lose all.
[GM]: Bilko: And I did tell you .... I have a buyer for the map.
[Sir Cornelius]: true...but that is also our assurance that you will provide accurate information...
[GM]: Bilko: Well, there is much talk about the map ... and you haven't even seen it yet.
[Jamison]: Let's have a peek.
[GM]: Bilko: Before I produce the map .... I want proof that you really are a knight.
(Jamison whispered to GM): OOC: who was in here b-4, I forgot.
[GM]: Bilko looks at Sir Cornelius.
Sir Cornelius stands...looking...and feeling rather offended...
(GM whispered to Jamison): As far as you know .... Kalith, the elf.
(Jamison whispered to GM): ths
[Sir Cornelius]: Perhaps if I cut your ear off and hand it to you on the end of my sword?
[GM]: Bilko: No offense, but I have seen impersonators before....and there is quite a bit on the line here.
[GM]: Bilko: Might I ask your names?
Jamison looks at Bilko, "Was the buyer an Elf?"
Sir Cornelius relaxes a bit...but eyes his host warily...crossing his arms
[Jamison]: You can ask...
[GM]: Bilko looks a little embarressed, "May buyers and I have a confidence to keep. I do not discuss details with anyone else ... I am sure you want the same confidence with me"
[Jamison]: Of course, but I imagine that your "buyer" is alittle late for his appointment by now.
[GM]: Bilko: I normally do not ask names... but I do need to be sure that you are a knight ... and obtain your word, before I proceed further.
[GM]: Bilko: My 'client' is procuring the gold as we speak.
[GM]: Bilko: ...and he does have MY word that when he returns with it ... he will get the map.
[Jamison]: And a wagon to carry it....
[Sir Cornelius]: What you ask is understandable... I am Sir Cornelius of Nearhill Downs... a knight indeed
[Sir Cornelius]: Now...let us judge the quality of the merchandise
[GM]: Bilko: I would like to see your blade .... I can judge a lot from your blade.
[GM]: Bilko: You are asking for my trust .... I will ask for yours.
[Sir Cornelius]: I draw my blade only when I intend to use it my good sir...you know this
[Sir Cornelius]: Or perhaps that is your proof....
[GM]: Bilko: Hmmm.......
Jamison prepares to ready his morningstar.
[GM]: Bilko: Dirk perhaps I should let them take you away.....
[GM]: Dirk frowns.
[GM]: Bilko: Okay, I need your word that you will not take the map without my permission, sir Knight.
[GM]: Bilko: .... or you will not let your friend take it .... as well.
[GM]: Bilko smiles.
[GM]: Bilko: Then I will produce the map.
[Sir Cornelius]: you have my word...that neither I nor the squire will mishandle any of your merchandise...including the map
[GM]: Bilko: Very good.
Jamison shakes his head..."He just had to say that, didn't he..."
[GM]: Bilko: Reaches into the pocket of his vest...."Perhaps this will not be what you are looking for ....but it is VERY valuable"
[GM]: Bilko open a large leather envelope and takes some old manuscripts out.
Jamison looks on with interest.
[GM]: Bilko lays them on the table and begins to spread them out.
[GM]: Bilko: What we have here is not a map of the Baron's castle, I'm afraid.
[GM]: Bilko: I have been very lucky .... or not so lucky .... to obtain a very old map.
[Jamison]: A map of what?
[GM]: Bilko(he points): These are the old catacombs that are under the city of Shevandale.
[GM]: Bilko: They are vast ....as you can see (points to the other 3 pages)
[GM]: Bilko: They are under the entire city, and as might interest you ... under the Baron's castle.
Sir Cornelius looks...trying to judge their extent.... being familiar with Dwarven passages may help some...he thinks
[GM]: Bilko points to the drawing of the castle on the map.
[GM]: Bilko: This is the Baron's castle ... the map was drawn about the same time that the castle was built.
[GM]:
Jamison wonders how long this map has been in Bilko's control.
[Sir Cornelius]: And nothing exists down there?
[GM]: Bilko: Well, I wouldn't bet on it, Sir Knight.
[GM]: Dirk looks a little worried.
[GM]: Bilko: My guess would be that the map was made in the year 100 P
[Sir Cornelius]: OOC: maybe 60 points isn't too much for photographic memory afterall <g>
[GM]: OOC: That would be 1000 years ago.
[GM]: Bilko: These catacombs could get you into the castle ... past the guards.... past the magic.
[Jamison]: Do you have a map of the castle layout?
[GM]: Bilko: Do you not know that no one .... knows of the existence of the catacombs? This is lost knowledge.
[Sir Cornelius]: If there is an entrance to the castle...this may be true...
[GM]: Bilko(points): Here .... that looks like a tunnel to me ... right into the castle.
[ curiousg joined the game ]
[Sir Cornelius]: and 1000 years of wear and tear...could have obliterated the tunnel completely
(curiousg whispered to GM): don't mind me, i am just watching.
(GM whispered to curiousg): no prob
[Jamison]: That may be, SC. But, it's better than the front door.
[GM]: Bilko: Of course, that is a chance you would have to take.
[GM]: Bilko begins to fold the map up.
(curiousg whispered to GM): actually, do mind me for a second. can i have the url to the fogies site.
[GM]: Bilko: There is also the other option. I can obtain you a map of the castle.
(GM whispered to curiousg): There ya go.
[Jamison]: We will need that once we're inside, SC.
(curiousg whispered to GM): thanks
[GM]: Bilko: It will take me some time to get it.
[GM]: Bilko: ....depending on how much detail that you need.
[GM]: Bilko: I can get a duplicate of the building plans for the castle. ... my contact at the museum can get that for me.
[GM]: Bilko: But as far as the Baron's defenses go .... that will take some time.
[GM]: Bilko puts the map back in the leather envelope.
[Jamison]: How long to get the map?
[GM]: With or without the defenses, squire?
[Sir Cornelius]: If you can get the map...soon...along with locations of the interconnections with the tunnels beneath.... perhaps we will have something valuable
[GM]:
[GM]: Bilko: I can have the plans here tomorrow night.
[GM]: Bilko: The cost for that map .... will be my cousin's freedom.
[GM]: Bilko smiles.
[Sir Cornelius]: And any treasure that he manages to acquire...but I get the first choice in division of spoils
[GM]: Bilko: I also need to make something else clear.
[GM]: Bilko: I want my name to no how be connected with this venture.
Jamison looks at SC and nods.
[GM]: Bilko: If you are caught, and you name me to the Baron .... I might as well leave the city.
[GM]: Bilko: It would not be good to have the Baron as an enemy ..... as a knight .... or as a thief, he could ruin you.
[GM]: Bilko: I have much invested in this city.
(curiousg whispered to GM): i am gonna leave a blank character sheet for everyone to copy down to their hard drive if they want. a good gurps sheet. also, i modified it to include the other two attributes for clay's game.
[Sir Cornelius]: I can understand that.
(GM whispered to curiousg): ok
[Sir Cornelius]: I will do what I may be able to do.
[Sir Cornelius]: Just as I expect that you will not make it known that we were here this evening.
[GM]: Bilko: Of course, I am a man of my word to (he smiles)
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): Does he mean that?
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): You got lie detection?
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): default :) I think it's like IQ-6 or something...
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): role
Sir Cornelius looks Bilko in the eye
(To GM) DICE for Sir Cornelius: (3d6) : 3d6=5,5,5 = [ 15 ]
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): um....nope nope nope nope LOL
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): You cant tell.
(GM whispered to Thomas): Sorry, this has gone on longer than I expected.
Jamison looks at Bilko, "As long as we are going in, is there someone you know that could assist us, and want to accompany us?
(GM whispered to Thomas): I will work you in asap.
[GM]: Bilko: I can find you anyone that you need.
(Thomas whispered to GM): np, reading history of methoria and webrpg forums...
[GM]: Dirk: I know of a someone that would want in. ... I think he can offer you something.
(curiousg whispered to GM): see you, i am gonna work on my character for clay's game. you still planning on playing?
[Jamison]: Perhaps someone with certain skills that may be in the grey area of the law?
(GM whispered to curiousg): I decided to back out of the game.
(curiousg whispered to GM): okay, talk to you later.
[ curiousg left the game ]
[Jamison]: And you can have the map ready by this time tomorrow?
[GM]: Dirk: I think that he might do nicely. I will let you meet him.
[GM]: Bilko: Yes, I can.
[GM]: Bilko: But there is a problem of this map (he taps his pocket). The buyer said he would return tonight make the purchase.
[GM]: A bell rings
Sir Cornelius looks at Dirk... and then back at Bilko... Then you had better find a way to stall him.
Jamison looks around
[Jamison]: what is that...
[GM]: Bilko: Excuse me .... I must see to something..... I will be back.
[GM]: Bilko gets up from the table and walks past Jamison at the entrance to the hall.
Jamison looks at Dirk, "Is there a way to observe the front room, unnoticed?"
[GM]: Bilko shuts the door to the front.
[GM]: Dirk: Yes, I will show you.
[GM]: Dirk gets up and heads for the hallway.
Jamison follows Dirk
Jamison motions for SC to follow.
[GM]: Dirk goes up to the closed door and points at something.
Jamison looks
(GM whispered to Jamison): there are some peepholes on the door.
Jamison points to Dirk, "You first"
[GM]: What is Sir Cornelius doing?
Sir Cornelius looks about the room...trying to see anything of interest...hiding places...other doors...etc.
[Sir Cornelius]: (while the others are busy...)
[GM]: Dirk look out the holes .... "You can see the front from them":
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): There are some crates against the wall on one side.
Jamison uses the same peep holes as Dirk did, and observes the front room.
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): There are two doors on the back wall.
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): similar to the ones seen downstairs through the bars
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko is talking to a man.
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko is listening and shaking his head.
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): They are much newer than those.
(Sir Cornelius whispered to GM): good enough...thanks
(Jamison whispered to GM): Can I hear anything?
(GM whispered to Jamison): hearing roll
(Jamison whispered to GM): What is that against?
(GM whispered to Jamison): IQ ...unless you have acute hearing or senses.
(Jamison whispered to GM): nope, IQ=10
(To GM) DICE for Jamison: (3d6) : 3d6=5,1,3 = [ 9 ]
(GM whispered to Jamison): Okay, you hear Bilko say .. this is intesesting news.
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko: And when was the body found?
(GM whispered to Jamison): Are you still looking?
Sir Cornelius returns his attention to the others
(Jamison whispered to GM): Yes.
(GM whispered to Jamison): The man ... who is the customer from earlier .... makes a slashing movement over his neck.
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko shakes his head.
[GM]: Jamison has his face up against the door to the front and Dirk watches him.
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko says something to the man and he begins to leave the shop.
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko locks the door behind him.
(Jamison whispered to GM): Did I hear what?
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko just said to him ...:"We shall talk again tomorrow about shipment.
(GM whispered to Jamison): ....before he left
Jamison turns away from the door and motions for Dirk to follow him back to the backroom
(GM whispered to Jamison): Bilko heads to the door
[GM]: Bilko comes through the door and returns to the back room and takes his seat at the table.
[GM]: Is everyone seated.
Jamison still guards the door, as before.
Sir Cornelius returns to his seat
[GM]: Bilko looks around the room.
[GM]: Bilko: It appears that the map is for sale, after all.
Jamison smiles...
[GM]: Bilko looks a little grim.
[Jamison]: and the price?
[Sir Cornelius]: It's hard to come by that much gold so quickly
[GM]: Bilko: That's changes things a little....
[GM]: Bilko: For my cousin's freedom, I will show you how to get to the catacombs .... even let you make a copy of the map ... and provide you with the map of the Baron's castle.
Sir Cornelius leans back...listening...
Jamison looks at SC and smiles.
[GM]: Bilko: With the understanding that Dirk joins the party and recieves a share of the spoils.
[Sir Cornelius]: that would only be fair...I am sure his talents will be useful
Jamison looks at Dirk, "And you will still provide your aqaintance?"
[GM]: Dirk: I will ... and maybe some others if you wish.
[Sir Cornelius]: Hmmm... well, I don't know how many we wish to take with us...
Sir Cornelius looks at the squire...
[GM]: Bilko: I can provide you with a Elloyon translater if you wish.......(he laughs)
Jamison scowls
[GM]: Dirk: Just the ones with the skills that you need.
[GM]: correction:Ellyllon
[Sir Cornelius]: Perhaps.. We will consider it.
[Sir Cornelius]: (that was to dirk of course....)
[GM]: OOC: That was a joke
Jamison looks at SC, "I think we should preview these others"
[Sir Cornelius]: later
[Jamison]: OOC: I know
[GM]: I see that the map is still for sale.
[Sir Cornelius]: We have a deal then do we?
[Sir Cornelius]: your terms seem good to me
[Jamison]: SC, can you copy the map?
[GM]: Bilko rubs his three-day old beard.....Well, it doen't seem that I am getting anything from this deal.
[Jamison]: Except getting rid of your troublesome cousin, perhaps?
[GM]: Bilko: Perhaps I should ask for a share of the spoils myself?
[Jamison]: For a share of the spoils, you can loan us the map...
[GM]: Bilko: Perhaps .... for the use of the map ..... yes .... I can loan you the map.
[Sir Cornelius]: I can see that as beneficial to us both. Agreed.
[GM]: Bilko: What amount of 'spoils' do you anticipate? (He looks at the knight)
[Sir Cornelius]: We will give the map to Dirk when we part company...he may return it to you
[GM]: Bilko: .... along with my share, I hope.
Sir Cornelius chuckles... What amount of spoils exists in the Baron's castle?
[Sir Cornelius]: Certainly. He will be holding two shares and the map when we leave his side.
[Jamison]: I'm sure your cousin will make sure that your share of the spoils is fair...
[GM]: Bilko: It is said, that there is enough in there that we should never have to work another day for the rest of our lives.
Jamison grins
[Jamison]: Shall we meet at the Tavern at dusk tomorrow?
[Sir Cornelius]: Tell me...why have you never attempted this yourself?
[ Silph joined the game ]
[GM]: Bilko: I do not understand .... why does a knight wish to rob the Baron?
[GM]: Bilko looks at the knight.
(Jamison whispered to GM): OOC: do we need to move this along to get the newbies in?
[Sir Cornelius]: We all have our secrets I suppose.
[GM]: Bilko: I have told you that the Baron is a terrible enemy to have.
[ Silph left the game ]
[GM]: Bilko studies the knight. ... we do have our secrets.
Jamison looks at SC, "I think that is enough for now, SC. Until tomorrow, Dirk, Bilko"
[Sir Cornelius]: Then we understand each other. We should leave.
Sir Cornelius gets up from the table
[GM]: Bilko: For now, I must close this meeting .... Tomorrow
Jamison opens the door.
[GM]: Bilko and Dirk remain at the table.
[Sir Cornelius]: Hmm...perhaps there is a more...suitable exit?
[GM]: Bilko: Dirk show them the rear exit.
Jamison glances back, "The Tavern , at dusk. Bring the maps.. and friends"
[GM]: Dirk gets up and opens one of the doors on the back wall.
[GM]: Dirk leads you up some stairs which opens to a hallway.
Jamison follows
[GM]: There are doors along the walls. He leads you to the end of the hall and opens a door.
[GM]: There is a stairway going down .... out into an alley.
[Jamison]: OOC: Time?
[GM]: It is 7:30 PM
[GM]: It is dark outside.
[Jamison]: Until tomorrow, Dirk.
[Sir Cornelius]: Let's find our companions...and a bit of light
[GM]: There alley is dim ... there are some city lights.....
Jamison heads down the stairs
[GM]: Dirk: Tomorrow...
[Sir Cornelius]: OOC: didn't think he was still there...
Jamison rests his hand on his weapon.
[Jamison]: shall we return to the tavern for some food and rest?
[GM]: Okay you exit the alley and come back the part of town where Bilko's was in.... the shops are closed. Traffic is light.
Sir Cornelius is well ahead of you :)
[GM]: Okay, you both reach the tavern/pub with no trouble.
Jamison follows SC back to the Tavern.
Sir Cornelius tells the quire in passing...while en route...
[Sir Cornelius]: grrr
[Sir Cornelius]: squire
[Jamison]: grrr?
[Sir Cornelius]: that he doesn't think that it's a good idea to involve anyone other than Dirk
Jamison looks to see if the knight is a weredog.
[Sir Cornelius]: wereknight
[Jamison]: I didn't want to trust or lives to someone of Dirks Ineptitude....
[GM]: Okay any other actions for the evening?
[Thomas]: [brb]
[Sir Cornelius]: nor I to one of his more capable friends....
[Sir Cornelius]: none here, no
[Jamison]: We shall watch, carefully
[Jamison]: no
[GM]: Okay the morning brings a fresh air from the west and clear skys.
[Sir Cornelius]: OOC: I have to run...can you make do without me?
[GM]: OOC: As fresh as it can be in an overpopulated city.
[GM]: OOC: What were your plans for the day, Cornelius?
[Jamison]: Go, we'll try....
[GM]: OOC: Hang out until the meeting tonight?
[Sir Cornelius]: pass the time...provision as well as possible...basically, yes. I think also...he will visit the temple...just because
[GM]: OOC: The temple?
[GM]: OOC: Just to say some prayers?
[Sir Cornelius]: to make an appearance...see what happens if anything...brush up on theology...whatever
(GM whispered to Sir Cornelius): Okay ... .that is where you will start next time.....
[Sir Cornelius]: night folks
[GM]: night sir knight
