I think all of our individual business is done, so off to our new Tavern?
Agreed.
(I lost track. Do the 3 of us know when Pascal and Ilena are expected back, or is it "sometime"?)

You all thought they would show up at the Yawning Portal in the morning, but neither did. Perhaps they had business of their own? Pascal was VERY EXCITED about owning his own establishment, when you found out last night...

ey/em/eirs, or they/them works, too (just not he). Role-playing since that keep on those borderlands. Here's my D&D stuff. I love it so.

(Thanks. I was worried I missed a post where they went away on a quest and didn't say when they would be back.)
"We have rooms at the Portal for tonight, which Pascal and Ilena know. We can tell them about the new place this evening, over dinner and beverages." (Follows the others, who know the street routes to the gifted establishment better than he does.)

"Oh yes, you are right. We have one more night at the portal. Our friends may meet us there this even, and I need to get a flask of spirit for Artur anyway. So, we say the night there, then off to Trollskull tomorrow?"
"No, I'm suggesting we check it out now. Get an idea of what shape it is in. Despite Volo saying how wonderful it is, I suspect that it is a fixer-upper... We can shop for repair supplies later this afternoon, see if Pascal and Ilena have returned to the Portal by dinnertime, and decide what to do for tomorrow. If this place needs a lot of work, we may need to keep the Portal rooms for more than just tonight."

The three hearties make their way northward out of the Trades Ward, and along the storied High Road. Broad, busy, even as winter descends on Waterdeep, it is the middle of the day and carriages and people stream by. As you head north, the buildings and neighborhood get nicer and nicer. Hildi checks his bearings once or twice, but finally turns east along Saerdoun Street, and one or two blocks later, Trollskull Manor comes into view.
The place looks like it has seen better days. Windows are boarded up, paint is peeling, and some roof tiles have gone missing. That might be a nest in one of the many chimneys. The main entrance opens on to the alley itself (which is actually a cobbled road that runs inside the block, it's not an alley like you might be imagining, with close quarters and trash everywhere). As you approach, you see Pascal inside, diligently washing one of the windows on the ground floor.
Remember to look at the Campaign Page for a map of Trollskull Alley.

Pascal is diligent working as he hums a tune, “Lemme tell ya bout my best friend... warm hearted person ‘ho loves me to the end~” Pascal turns to the rest of the group,“Oh! Bonjour, my friends! Ain’t this something! We gon’ be the best restaurant in town in no time t’all!”
Drusk: "Oy! I thought you were meeting us in the morning? We almost didn't come here today, because we were thinking of waiting for you at the Portal."
(OOC: Looking on the Campaign page, there are some "interesting" names under Chapter 2. Hopefully Pascal and Ilena will fill in the details, if those characters show up later.)

Jorin gives an approving nod to his friend Pascal and claps him on the shoulder, "Aye, friend, we will. I have some business down in the trade ward next, it will take me a couple days, but until then..." He begins looking for the biggest, heaviest thing that needs cleared away or moved, "No lamb for the lazy wolf."
Ilena strolls down Whaelgond Way with a paper wrapped fish clutched tightly to her chest. She looks preoccupied and nearly passes her companions entirely, but then looks west and sees the unmistakable group, and runs over to meet them. She puts on a clearly fake smile, "Good morning friends, I come bearing fish," she says half-heartedly.
Ilena looks up at Jorin with some confusion, "What? Oh... of course... of course..." she presents the paper wrapped fish to Pascal, still looking a bit distracted.

Hildigrim walks in and begins calculating an estimate for just how much gold it's going to take to get this place going. *sigh*
Jorin gives an approving nod to his friend Pascal and claps him on the shoulder, "Aye, friend, we will.

He begins looking for the biggest, heaviest thing that needs cleared away or moved, "No lamb for the lazy wolf."

She puts on a clearly fake smile, "Good morning friends, I come bearing fish," she says half-heartedly.
~♡~
Jorin smiles as the fish bearing Ilena, "Oh Ilena, do not look so sad. I'm sure Pascal can make it into something very tasty."
Ilena looks up at Jorin with some confusion, "What? Oh... of course... of course..." she presents the paper wrapped fish to Pascal, still looking a bit distracted.
~♡~
Jorin stops looking for heavy things and says, "Is everything alright? You seem, " he looks up and pauses for a moment, "heavier than usual."
Hildigrim pauses in his brooding to turn to watch the others.
Ilena shakes her head, "It's nothing, how is everyone today? Is this our manor house? Shall we go inside?"
~♡~
Jorin frowns, "Ilena, you can trust us. If something is wrong, perhaps we can help. Many spears will take down even the greatest beast."
