Polly, being the pacifist he is stumbles over to the region of conflict. "Gentlemen!" He places his arm around Gotrek, then his eyes start darting between the other dwarf and the ugly grey humanoid. "and ladies... I think, why must we fight? I mean, sure, if I looked like ya'll I'd have anger management issues too but..." Polly hiccups, then looks around as if he's forgotten what he was saying. He leans in and sniffs the grey humanoid, then retracts in disgust. "Ugh, what are you?"
The half-orc looks suspiciously at the two (or is it four or is it six) dwarfs backing off, the others watching and the strange birdman that’s just taken a great sniff and says with a great belch of beery breath into Polly's face “jush proves wot Zomith hash alwuys thunk, one half-orc equals more than (counting on her fingers) four dwarfs, and that’s wot me sed to the dwarvish caravan guards up in Beliard.” “Boy wash dat a good fight” she grins. "Las time I seed dem they was heading souf from Beliard and we wos heading west to westbridge and den down The Long Road” she finishes with. “But dat mob I was wit don wan me no more, have yoush got a job?” she looks around hopefully.
It is now about 7.00 pm and sunset will be in about 30 minutes
Where were you when they let you go? It’s important that we find them, could you take us there so we can pick up their trail, after you maybe sleep off your current state?

Polly, upon realising he's alone decides to follow. Although being too drunk and tired to walk he takes off into the sky, however it is at an altitude of 12ft that he realises he is too drunk to fly too and the floor races up to smack him in the face. Grunting and cursing, he dusts himself off and stumbles after the party.
“Thash funny a bird that can’t fly”, Zomith says as she watches Polly crash to the ground and then pick himself up to follow the party led by Redleaf down the lane towards where she was told that Gaelkur’s would be. Realising that the party is not going to offer her a job, Zomith says “what no job for Zomith, poor Zomith, welsh never mind” as she staggers off down (south) The Long Road.
It is about 250 feet to Gaelkur’s. If The Helm at Highsun looked rundown, this place looks distinctly seedy. On the porch can be seen a collection of barrels piled high with used tools and a variety of goods. There is also a barber pole on one side of the main doorway. As the party enters they see that inside is a cluttered shop full of lounging customers (all humans) — most of them men in no particular hurry to be waited on — with old hair clippings trodden underfoot on the sagging board floor. There are a lot of people talking at once but you catch a snippet of conversation that sounds like “a bunch of cairns which weren’t thar four days previous.” Another snippet of conversation you catch sounds like “a bunch of strangers in stone masks was watching us one night.”
Party members would know that it is common practice, where the soil is to shallow to allow a proper grave to be dug, to place the body(s) under a stone cairn.
Redleaf looks around the room and frowns. Brother whatsits said something about cairns so she walks over to whoever said it. "Which one of you is Larmon Greenboot? Brother something or other said I can find you here, something about you finding something strange? Cairns somewhere that shouldn't be there? I need you to take us to them and I will pay you for your troubles."
One of the patrons says “that’s Larmon over there”. As Redleaf wanders over and introduces herself and asks Larmon his story, he more than happy to claim a bit of the limelight says “Well thar I was chasin’ one of me sheep” at which point one of the other locals in the tavern says “you’se is always chasing yer sheep Greenboot and not always to make sure theys ok, if yer’s get me meanin” as he looks around at his cronies and smirks. “You’se put a sock in it Fodel,” Larmon says. “Now whese was I, thats right I was chasin’ one of me sheep and I comes across a bunch of cairns which weren’t thar four days previous”. In response to Redleaf’s question he says “Yars I can tek ya” he looks at Redleaf and says hopefully "it'll cost ya(he thinks for a minute)three dragons." He finishes with “but we ain’t goin’ till tommora and it be wicked cold up on the Hills.”

Gotrek heads over to the conversation about stone masks. "Gentlemen," he says, looking at the man talking about stone masks, "How good a look did you get at these stone masks? Can you describe them? Any information would be greatly appreciated." Gotrek says with a gleam in his eye. Gotrek puts a couple of silver coins on the table, allowing the men to see the coins before covering them with his hand. "I do understand information isn't free of course, as long as its useful."

"Listen Civie, I don't have time for yer nonsense. 1 dragon is more than you make in a month. 3 is probably more than you make in a years time. And if what Fodel says is true then we would have a problem, you and I. sexual intercourse with a sheep is usually not allowed by law and it is definitely not allowed by the laws of nature. I'm Redleaf, Druid of Miribar, Protector of the Spine of the World, Upholder of the laws of Nature, and Natures Executioner."
She snarls at Larmon and shapechanges into a wolf. Wolf Redleaf opens her mouth and growls a low throaty growl as she shows her very sharp teeth to Larmon before shapechanging back. "Do you wish me to visit your flock of sheep and put them out of your misery for what you have been doing to them? You will bring me to this Cairn in the morning and If I will pay you 1 dragon."
5intimidation Roll w/advantage because of the shapechanging, otherwise just take the first roll in this roll if you don't think I should get an advantage.

The table at which Larmon and Redleaf are sitting shakes and some beer slops out of Larmon's tankard. Larmon sits up suddenly as if he has seen something strange and thinks to himself "Now i am seeing things and the earth's movin', I must have had too much to drink!". He shakes his head and says Redleaf "Orright I'll take ya to the Cairns tommora but it'll cost ya 2 Dragons." He finishes with "we leave at first light." He drains his tankard and yells out to the barkeep "I'm off home now Marlandro" and to Redleaf "remember first light here at Gaelkurs cos we gotta go up the Larch Path". Still shaking his head he wanders out into the gathering darkness.
First light is at 4.30 am
Gotrek heads over to the conversation about stone masks. "Gentlemen," he says, looking at the man talking about stone masks, "How good a look did you get at these stone masks? Can you describe them? Any information would be greatly appreciated." Gotrek says with a gleam in his eye. Gotrek puts a couple of silver coins on the table, allowing the men to see the coins before covering them with his hand. "I do understand information isn't free of course, as long as its useful."
One of the three locals at the table looks at Gotrek and says "hey mates he reckons we are gentlemen". "I reckon he don't know us to well"says another. "Well compared to him, we is" says the third. "Well it goes like this" says the first "Fubar, Snafu and me wos working late one night in Mellihikho's quarry, 'bout three 10 days ago, when we seed a bunch of strange blokes watching us from up on the quarry rim - real scary it was." One of the others pipes up and "ya got that right Remf but it was only two and half ten days ago and ya forgot to say they was wearing these strange stone masks." The final member of the trio joins in and says "Ya right Fubar and Remf but ya forgot to mention dat dey wos wearing leather armour and it 'ad a bunch of triangles on it". Now "bout dem coins" the first one (Remf) says.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
I botched that up but it still worked in our favor. Redleaf thinks to herself as she turns towards the discussion of the masks. "Gotrek we must talk about these masks when you get a chance. I have had strange dreams about them recently." Redleaf throws 3 dragons to the group of people asking for money from Gotrek. "Tell him whatever he needs to know."
Redleaf looks around the room and frowns. "I will see you all here at the First light if you're coming with us to see these cairns. I'm heading to bed."
With that Redleaf walks out of the place and starts heading out of town to find a nice quiet place to sleep under the stars.
I erased 5 more gold and I'm almost broke :-) 3 for these guys and 2 for Larmon. I will make sure I am at this place by 4:15 in the morning.
12 Foraging for herbs for my herbalism kit
Feature: Wanderer
You have an excellent memory for maps and geography, and you can always recall the general layout of terrain, settlements, and other features around you. In addition, you can find food and fresh water for yourself and up to five other people each day, provided that the land offers berries, small game, water, and so forth.
I will do the Wanderer feature and gather enough food for myself for 6 days since I can get enough food for 6 people.
Then after I gather herbs and food I will go to bed
Polly, being the pacifist he is stumbles over to the region of conflict. "Gentlemen!" He places his arm around Gotrek, then his eyes start darting between the other dwarf and the ugly grey humanoid. "and ladies... I think, why must we fight? I mean, sure, if I looked like ya'll I'd have anger management issues too but..." Polly hiccups, then looks around as if he's forgotten what he was saying. He leans in and sniffs the grey humanoid, then retracts in disgust. "Ugh, what are you?"
The half-orc looks suspiciously at the two (or is it four or is it six) dwarfs backing off, the others watching and the strange birdman that’s just taken a great sniff and says with a great belch of beery breath into Polly's face “jush proves wot Zomith hash alwuys thunk, one half-orc equals more than (counting on her fingers) four dwarfs, and that’s wot me sed to the dwarvish caravan guards up in Beliard.” “Boy wash dat a good fight” she grins.
