Petro begins pacing. Now, don't get me wrong here, I'm a fan of...ah, "stopping evildoers" as much as the next ruggedly handsome adventurer, or my dear, lovely Ondrea; but what, pray tell, would make us take this incredibly dangerous sounding job away from the capital guardsmen?

Petro looks up, pondering. You know, I am a fan of money and fame. I guess I can get over having the King's favour if I have enough of the other. He shrugs. It'll make a great story, anyway.

”I suppose I'm in as well, not that I much care for any of things you can offer, but it seems like a good way to help a lot of people” Kra-osh says, clearly a bit annoyed at how long this will probably take
"Glad to hear it. You probably want to head off soon. We have got a teleportation circle here to get you quickly to Newvein or Ironview which should cut a week a week or so off your travel times. Any preferences?"
He then will start walking gesturing for you to follow while waiting for a response
Well that depends, do we have any better idea than 'Somewhere in the Death Peaks' where we might find them? Is there perhaps a cult cell in one of those towns that might have members who could lead us to the stronghold?
"There is almost certainly members of the cult in both of the cities, they might be small and hidden or more easily found. The intel I have is purely the Death Peaks seems to have had demons spotted around recently, which seems related. Also, I believe most of the leaders are tieflings and dragonborn, though that is just because it seems they came here from Xenoth. Xenoth had an uprising like this recently but quelled it. The main leaders escaped however and it appears they came here"
Despite all this he seems calm. "I have no items for you but you can have 300gp up front, split between you all. Though if I find out you have decided not to try and help I will be coming to collect the money back personally"
Ondrea scratches her head, somewhat frustrated at how little they have to go on. Finally she offers, It sounds like one town is as good another, with no further intel to go on. Why don't we try Newvein first, do some investigation and see if we can find some sign of the cult. If there's nothing there, we could try again in Ironview, or head into the Death Peaks directly.
You are taking to a circle and teleported to Newvein. It is a major settlement, but not as big as highwater, and very focused on making armour out of metals from the mountains nearby. How do you start your investigations?
Petro looks around. Usually, the seediest tavern will have the best chance of finding some information. But a heavily armed group going in there might put them on guard...perhaps we should split up, cover more ground?

"Unfortunately not much. I know they are widespread but they have a stronghold somewhere in the Death Peaks"

Artemis looks you dead in the eye. "Money and fame. And the King's favour. This isn't a capital issue, but affects the whole country."

Angorn sighs to himself I can't in good conscience sit by while this type of thing is going on and I can help stop it. I guess count me in.

Also do you have any intel we could use? Or do you have items that could help us on this mission?

Petro glares at him. Are you suggesting we might renege on our deal?

"I am suggesting that yes. It has happened before and will likely happen again. It isn't personal, purely business. Terms must be given up front"

Petro nods. You're quite right. Smart of you. Just clarifying, really. So, where do we begin, O Wise and Affluent Employer?

”Sounds about as good as any other plan, I'm in.” Kra-osh says bluntly after Ondrea makes her proposal

Petro shrugs. As good a plan as any. I'll follow you.
