Leon leans back. His arms folding across his chest as he looks over the group. "You do not seem to understand our relationship. We are not friends. We are not allies. Your friend, the Red Devil, had one favor. And he used that single favor on a meeting. Then you come in asking us to deal with some street thug that apparently you cannot deal with on your own. So we make a deal. I get this over reaching street gang to talk to you and knock off their issue, and you all get us a relic from the church."
He clicks his tongue. "Now you tell me you're in more trouble with the law and want our help to do the job we asked you to do. That's not how this works. You asked. We offered. You said yes. If you're trying to renegotiate, I need something else. And your talents apparently aren't worth anything... if you're trying to have us deal with all your issues." Leon's fingers snap as he gets an idea. "The deed to the Falcon's Nest, and I'll help you figure out the guards. But then your bar will be mine."
"Or go get to work, and prove that maybe you have some kind of resources at your disposal."
Yorvalor smiles to Leon. "The Falcon's Nest does not belong to us, and it would not be up for negotiation." While talking with Leon, he studies his facial features, for Yorvalor has been studding the person all this time. "I apologize for misunderstanding our relationship Mr. Leon. We will retrieve this relic that you are looking for to satisfy our part of the bargain." Yorvalor gets up. "Friends, if we have no further business here, I believe we would not want to overstay our welcome in this establishment."

Leon's face is a bit annoyed. And while the dwarven features are soft, the eyes are cold and ruthless. Someone who wouldn't have a problem drowning a person with their bare hands in order to get the job done; no matter the age.
He gives a nod to the group, while the table of card players begin to pull up chairs. Heading back to their card-game.
'Bloody hell I like you, and I like how you do business. More importantly, I like stealing things and pissing off the church. Lets go gents", Keegan will get up to leave, downing a drink from the table in front of him as he goes.
Emund grunts and gets up. He nods at Leon and follows Keegan out.
"Sounds like I'll need to get a message to Curtis. Or we'll need Yorvalor to tap his admirer for some more information." He pauses.
"We might want to go pay a visit to the Nest if we can too. We've been away, and knowing that Masus is in with the folks who tried to arrest us, he'll know it's unguarded."
“Agreed Brother Emund. I may try to find a way to go to the Church myself. I mean, not exactly as myself. Perhaps we could pay the Nest a visit now? Or do you think it’s too late?”

"Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."
The group heads out into the night after finishing up their business with Leon.
The streets have their soft glow from the lamps. You all sneak around corners and head over to the Falcon's Nest. It's been a few days for most, a bit longer for others. As you peek around a corner, there are a few city guards patrolling the area.
The Nest itself seems rather busy; usual for this time of day. The patrons of the establishment mid-swing in the entertainment. There is a secret way into the Nest that you're all familiar with, but it only leads you downstairs into the cellar. The front door, you'll have to try and sneak past. Based on the notes given, only Emund and Yorvalor are actually wanted at this point in time. Keegan wasn't listed as wanted for murder. Association may lead to some questioning by those guards though.
"Gentlemen, I would like to suggest that we take the secret entrance. I will try to get out friend's attention once we are in the cellar." Yorvalor looks at Keegan. "Nikolai showed us this little secret passage out of the Nest when we had to leave in the middle of the night."

"That little bastard, holding out secret entrances on me all this time. Just when you think you really know some one. It's like all this time and Nikolai turns out to have a secret, but he's still the same ol' Nikolai ya know."
Yorvalor smiles at Keegan and pat on his back. "Let's just hope that our friend hasn't changed and that he is still running our ol' Nest."

"Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."
The group heads underground. Heading along the sewer routes to head over. When you begin to take a turn down the hall you believe would be heading back to the nest; you don't see any light coming from the end of the tunnel.
Yorvalor asks his friends to wait by the entrance to the passage. He stealthy goes to where he believes he and Emund came from, where he believes should lead into the Nest's cellar. (Stealth: 7). He looks around the area to see what has happened since the last time they were here. (Perception: 11)
Yorvalor hear Emund's concern and let Keegan investigate their getaway passage.

"Science is organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life."
"Something here seems off," says Emund, fiddling with the bonds around his wrists. "Keegan, hold a minute."
He places a hand on Keegan and says a short prayer to offer guidance. Then, Emund forms his hand so that his index and middle fingers are extended, his thumb perpendicular, and the two remaining fingers are tucked against his palm. He keeps them straight forward as he starts to quietly pray and draws a shape around Keegan, casting Sanctuary.
"You're a sneaky ****. Now you should be equally as hard to hit. Care to go see what's up?"
Casting a sly grin towards Edmund, Keegan slowly moves forward in a crouch, throwing in a roll for flare and theatrics, and humming an up beat tune "Dun dun dada Dun dun dada Dun dun dada Dun dun dada Dun dun dada Dun dun dada doo de doo doo de doo doo de doo doo dooooo. I accept this impossible mission!"
Keegan, you head down the tunnel. Keeping alert for anything that may be hiding or on the other side. Reaching the end, you see what your friends have said to be a hidden door. With your knowledge of the Nest, it would be behind a shelf and some of the barrels of aging wine. But you're met with a masoned wall. The passage seeming to be sealed up, or somehow you got lost. In your head, you know getting lost makes absolutely no sense. You've traveled the underground, know the layouts, and how to best find a path.
With a hand skimming around the wall, you don't quite find anything at first look. (Investigation roll)
But you do find a thin piece of wire around your foot; as if you've set off some kind of trap. (Arcana to know more)
"Do be careful Friend Keegan" Says Yorvalor with a hushed voice. He pulls his lute and plays a soft note so that his Friend knows their (Yorvalor and Emund) position, and also to give his friend a Bardic Inspiration.

(Gonna hold on to that d6 of inspiration for s second)
You take a few minutes. First glancing at whatever string was on your foot - but it's most likely just some kind of sewer trash. Then, back to the more important matter at hand. The feeling of the stones. It's bricked up, sealed to make it so you couldn't return this way. You don't necessarily think it would be too hard to break down though. Probably a quick job, rather than a proper job.
From the distance, Emund and Yorvalor, you hear the sounds of movement. Several footsteps echoing around the empty sewers and the splash of feet striking the filth.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Yorvalor says in a hushed voice. "Brother Emund. It seems that we are not alone." He faces where the sounds are coming from to determine how many people are coming. (Perception: 17)
