Talien returns inside and returns the bucket. He then tells the group I am going to report my failure to the blacksmith. He then walks out the doors again, this time hopefully not stinking.
DM Note: Map of Oakhurst is in the OneNote under Sunless Citadel > Oakhurst (finally found it, was going crazy looking under General > Sword Coast. lol).
You walk across the street to the smitty's and find that it has closed up early for the day. There is a note on the front door that reads:
Shake tries to soak up some of the local flavor and see what's going on in town. After his song he sidles up to Garon, "Hello my good sir. Please don't be offended by my smell. I swear it is not me that smells, but rather all of the filth that covers me. Show me your town. Give me a tour. Festivities is practically my middle name. or maybe my last name since I only have one name. By the way, my name is Shake."
Once clean, Rees will return to the main room and wait for the others, though she'll go to Bozak's table. "Forgive us if we seem rude, we haven't had access to real food or the chance to clean up in several days. You would not have wanted us close to you after the things we went through, the smell was quite offensive."

"Nice to meet you Shake - names Garon. Perhaps a bath first? I unfortunately can't leave the Inn unattended and am in the midst of helping your friends. The town is quite small though and you really can't get lost.. the festival is in the square which if you follow the main street through town you are sure to find!"
Talien begins to look through the crowd and 'festivities' for the small metal worker.
Edit:Roll for me if needed
Easy enough to find.. though it's the whole town out at the festival it's still only about 50-60 people. You find the dwarven smitty, Rurik, near a large oaken barrel.. likely full of beer based on the large horn he holds sloshing with it.

"Forgive us if we seem rude, we haven't had access to real food or the chance to clean up in several days. You would not have wanted us close to you after the things we went through, the smell was quite offensive."
Bozak smiles, "Apology accepted.. I can only image a warren full of goblins and kobolds smells like dire straights and I am more concerned with your work. So, tell me how fared you on your venture? I assume you've been successful -- and quite quickly I might add -- based on the mum around town."
Assuming Alten comes back and sees Rees talking to Bozak, he will move up to Grom.
Didn't you arrange to contact Bozack on our return? Suspicious that he just happens to get back from his "other business" he had to get to and just happens to be waiting, especially since we still have a few more days to fulfil the agreement.

Talien walks up to the Dwarf and tells him of his failureRurik, I searched for your hammer. It was not there. Dragons like treasure so maybe throne we found took off with it.
Shake shrugs off Garon's suggestion of a bath and goes out to the square to partake in the festivities. He will try to endear himself to the locals by singing to them and performing acrobatic dances.

"Ah, Talien!" Rurik responds in opposition to his normal gruff and unpleasant demeanor. "Have a beer with me!" he says as he pushes a full horn towards you. "Thank you for looking fer me hammer.." he scratches the back of his head embarrassed and then looks down to his belt, "It seems I errr.. mighta just misplaced it that day, found it under me workbench just a few hours after ya left. Real sorry about that and all. Hope you didn't waste to much time er effort lookin' fer it!" he says with a grin.
Shake shrugs off Garon's suggestion of a bath and goes out to the square to partake in the festivities. He will try to endear himself to the locals by singing to them and performing acrobatic dances.
After a song, or two you actually gather a small group of mostly children and a few elderly folk. It seems like they don't get much entertainment around here. Roll a performance check and let's see how you fair in front of this small crowd.

Now that your hammer is found, tomorrow can we forge some items. I would like your help as you offered.Talien will ignore the beer placed in front of him as he does not drink.

Noticing the crowd, Shake plays a few dramatic notes on his pipe and starts singing a song in a long forgotten language, the meaning of which he does not understand. While singing his body moves rhythmically. Performance = 24
When the moon is in the Seventh House And Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius Age of Aquarius Aquarius Aquarius
Harmony and understanding Sympathy and trust abounding No more falsehoods or derisions Golden living dreams of visions Mystic crystal revelation And the mind's true liberation Aquarius Aquarius

Oh, let it shine, c'mon Now everybody just sing along Let the sun shine in Open up your heart and let it shine on in When you are lonely, let it shine on Got to open up your heart and let it shine on in And when you feel like you've been mistreated And your friends turn away Just open your heart, and shine it on in

"We did our job," she replied with a polite smile. "Though we should probably wait for the others to go into detail."

Bravo! The crowd cheers and grows bigger the deeper you go into your song. They actually throw you a few flowers and some copper as well. You end up with 38 copper.

Giddy with his success Shake introduces a new song. "This song is a work in progress, so please don't be too harsh. I call it, 'Meepo: The Hero of The Sunless Citadel'"
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh It must have been cold there in that cave To never have sunlight on your face You were content to let me shine, laughed at my jokes You always walked a step behind
So I was the one with all the glory While you were the one with all the strength A beautiful face without a name for so long A beautiful smile to hide the pain
Did Meepo ever know that he's my hero And everything I would like to be? I can fly higher than an eagle For Meepo's the wind beneath my wings
It might have appeared to go unnoticed But I've got it all here in my heart I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it I would be nothing without you
Did Meepo ever know that he's my hero? he's everything I wish I could be I could fly higher than an eagle For Meepo's the wind beneath my wings
Did I tell Meepo he's my hero? He's everything, everything I wish I could be Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle For Meepo's the wind beneath my wings 'Cause Meepo is the wind beneath my wings
Oh, the wind beneath my wings Meepo, Meepo, Meepo is the wind beneath my wings Fly, fly, fly away, Meepo lets me fly so high Oh, Meepo, Meepo, the wind beneath my wings Oh, Meepo, Meepo, the wind beneath my wings
Fly, fly, fly high against the sky So high I almost touch the sky Thank you, thank you Thank Meepo, the wind beneath my wings
As he concludes he wipes a tear away and says, "He really did laugh at all my jokes."
