Urreek looks at the warforged, amused. "Oh, I am equipped well enough... But I think I'll need a good night of sleep before setting off! See, unlike you, I'm not a nocturnal bird", he chuckles. He looks at the sundial watch, which of course isn't pointing to any hour in particular, then stands up from his chair. "In fact, I think it's time for me to go. I suggest we meet at sunrise... Here, or maybe directly at the northern edge of the city."
"very well." Builder gives the group a nod. he then walks out the door and goes to stand, and wait, at the northern edge of town until they arrive the next morning.
"Aye, in tha' mornin' then. Now lassie, 'bout those drinks." Io waves over Destrian and, if Rena agrees, will order some drinks and see if she lives up to her words. Truth be told, Io misses the company of soldiers and the camaraderie that is created among them.
If Rena declines, he will order another for himself.
"Now lassie, ye seem to have some pull in this here ale house. How's about securin' us a room for the night?"
Zachary will join the Dwarf for a couple of drinks before heading off home, he spends a mostly estful night noly occasionally interupted by visions his dreams are filled with old ruins, shadowy figures, water and flames.

Urreek cocks his head. "Not for me, I'm afraid. I have my nest to return to." He winks at Io, then turns to Rena. "I would ask you for more indications to reach this place, but I suppose we are being... tested, is that the word?" He grins. "I hope that, the next time we meet, we can discuss our discoveries as equals." He bows slightly to her, then takes leave from the others.
Before going out, Urreek goes back to their previous table, and in a swift gesture he gathers up the leftover berries in one of his pouches. After a final nod to Destrian, he then walks out of the tavern.

"You're on little man!" She gets ready to drink "And about securin' a room, I got one. You'll have to grab one yourself." [Just roll 5 cons to see if you can hold your ale. DC 14] She starts downing drinks left and right as Destrian comes with them 242222823
Io slowly - and with effort - peels himself off of the tavern floor and looks around, checking for his weapons and pack. "Heeyoo, by Moradin's beard that lass can drink!" Io will stumble to the bar and see if there is anything he can pour down his gullet before making his way groggily out of the tavern. He will also try to remember if he destroyed anything in last night's drinking competition.
"Ah ha! I knew I can be findin' ye here!" Io says to both Builder and Zachary as he strides up to meet them. "Where's the bird? I guess he ain't wantin' tha' worm!!!" he says, doubling over in a fit of hysterical (and painful) laughter. "Prolly be along shortly. So the lass says the place is about 6 miles north o' here. Should we be startin' that trek when feathers gets here? Are we needin' anything afore we go? We got anythin' to heal ourselves?"
Io will wait for the others' decisions and for Urreek to show up. The laughing made him burp and the shaking didn't feel great.
"Haha, still full of, beans as ever Lo I see. Hmm healings not really my forte..." His face takes on a darker cadence, as though a little bit of light had been stolen from the morning, as purple flames slowly curl around his finger tips he says, "I'm more inclined to destroy my enemies with the blasts of raw power ensuring all cower before me."
Zach blinks a couple of times, before chuckling nervously and saying, "erm nope not healing from me, I can feed us though if we pass a river, stream or stay near the sea."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Urreek tries to surprise you all, gliding very silently from above. (I think this should work, in any case I'll roll stealth as I wait for someone to tell me off).
You all hear a sound above your heads: it's Urreek, who somehow collided straight with a seagull and is now swearing loudly. He glides to the ground, with a distinct lack of grace, and greets you all.
"Good morning, my companions, or rather I hope it gets better. I see you are all ready and rearing to go..." - he nods to himself - "...but I never set off exploring without a bit of insurance. I suggest we all do!" he suggests, a bit too enthusiastic.
Zachary looks around them trying g to recall where the nearest habadashery is to pick up a few supplies before they leave . "Erm I think old man gideons place is about 5 minutes away, or 2 as Ureek flies heh, heh" He laughs nervously.
And with a wave of his hand a glowing arrow appears in the air
"I will continue to await you here." Builder says as folk start to talk about supplies. "Please get what you need and return." He has not moved more than his head as everyone started to arrive, content to remain unmoving until it is time to leave.
"Oh, aye me boy, aye," Io responds to Zach. "Beans an' a whole lot - ahh!" Io draws his axe and spins at the sound behind...and above him? He glances up in time to see Urreek gliding down haphazardly. "But by the forge of Dumothin what ye be doin' up there!!" The diminutive dwarf stands up straight and secures his axe and coughs sheepishly, glancing at the others. "Me apologies. Ale jitters is all." Io will accompany the majority to the store.
"Oh, don't you worry, Zac; I'm not leaving you behind anytime soon," Urreek winks. "Also, I want to see more of those tricks you make. Is that how you catch the fish too?" He chuckles.
"Anyway, Gideon's the perfect place to gear up a bit. We could walk there and share some stories on the way... Nothing better than a leisurely stroll in the early morning to get into the adventuring spirit... And to get rid of the last traces of booze," Urreek smiles friendly to Io.
Finally, he turns to Builder. "You know, if you stay still for too long, the doves might think you're some sort of sculpture. And they aren't educated birds like me, if you know what I mean. Why don't you shake off some rust and come with us?"
"It would be inefficient." Builder says with a shake of his head. "we just need to come back here anyway, so I will stay."
"Oi, Builder. What 'appens if we need ye's assistance? What 'appens if we run in ta someone wit' ta good story? I been spyin' ya with that book 'o yours. This here crossroads be suren' ta stay 'ere while we head ta this Gideon's. Let them guards watch a road, why ain't ya come with us...at least ye can stand guard for us!" Io thinks about the obvious advantages of walking with a force like Builder, and then his mind wanders to wondering what it would look like if Builder stretched his arms out and Urreek flew and landed on one. Io grins widely at the mental image. Be good for them farmers, methinks. "Ye might 'ave questions of those we meet, in any case, which would be very efficient seein' as how ye don't need food anyhow."
Io will wait for Builder to stay or come with and will follow others to the store.

Zachary wakes in the morning and makes his way to the Entrance to the town to stand near Builder,
"Good morning Builder, a peaceful night I hope?" He says cheerily
(Are we still here?)
"Yes the night was peaceful." Builder says with a nod. "I saw no fighting or acts of war being made the entire night."
Io slowly - and with effort - peels himself off of the tavern floor and looks around, checking for his weapons and pack. "Heeyoo, by Moradin's beard that lass can drink!" Io will stumble to the bar and see if there is anything he can pour down his gullet before making his way groggily out of the tavern.
