" Phaedra is talking to a rock."

" I've got nothing."

She raises an eyebrow, "It's an sentient being trapped by magic. Surely we can agree we have seen a lot of this much stranger than this over the last few months"

"Ask him what his favorite type of pie is."

" I mean.....kinda....just not here in the taproom."

" So should we tell someone important about this? Oh! Ask more about keys!"

Silver just listens to the hints given trying to see if anything triggers potential information of what it may be referring to.

Phaedra just rolls her eyes at Kestrell's comment, which is a common occurrence.

Phaedra thinks on it.

You don't recall any real specifics, just that they are large amphibian creatures considered evil by most.

Quote from IAmButADream >>

"The keys three, so three keys to get into the Vault. Golorr where can we find these keys, what do they look like?"

"To open the way you will need a the eye stalk of an aberration, an animated construct, and a beardless dwarf. Take these with you when you venture forth and the way will be opened."

Phaedra looks up at the Gazer that they now have stuffed over the bar.

"I wonder if that will count for the eye stalk of an aberration...it does have four of them. And an animated construct..." she ponders for a second. "Well we have come across two of them, Nim should still be at the Temple of Gond but what ended up happening with the other constructs.... remains? Did the guards take him with them?"

"And a beardless dwarf....BASON! BASON! Do any of the dwarf womenfolk you know beardless?"

Kestrell looks confused.  "Remind me again, what is in the vault?"

Kestrell looks confused.  "Remind me again, what is in the vault?"

" A dragon? No lots of dragons! A lot of gold.....pretty sure its a lot of gold."

"Yes lots of gold. Lots and lots of gold. Enough to place whoever has it in power. I believe you Waterdavians call gold coins dragons? Well... I hope it's not an actual angry dragon... what would be something else"

Phaedra motions the holy symbol of Mystra to ward off such ideas.

Bason comes up from the basement, "What did you say about dwarven women? Beardless, aye I suppose some are. It's a newer look, only been happening for the last 75 years or so. Some dwarves don't like it but I will admit to finding the clean shaven look rather becoming."

"Do you know where we can find a beardless dwarf then or... are you willing to become a trend setter?"

"Trend setter?" Bason asks confused. As Phaedra's meaning dawned on him a horrified look crosses his face, "What? You want me to... no! I will not do this. You all have been very kind, allowing me to move in and brew my beer and ale here but, to shave my beard???" While shaking his head Bason's eyes land on Jorn. "Ah! Jorn! You never seem to leave the manor so no one would know. Would you shave your beard for us?"

Jorn looks up from his cleaning and sees folks looking his way. "Umm... maybe. How about I shave my beard and go with you but I get 10% of whatever this treasure is that you're looking for?"

Selinae shrugged, she wasn't planning on keeping any of the money anyway.

Silver looks at Jorn and smirks "How about 5% since it'll be our lives on the line and all you have to do is show up?"

 Jorn appears to consider it and then looks to Silver and nods. "Aye, I'll shave my beard for 5% of the treasure."

"Well then, we better head to the Temple of Gond and make sure Nim is willing to come with us."

"How about a rest first?"

" Honestly I still feel like crap from the whole being dead thing.....can we give it a couple of days if theres going to be punching involved?"
