Lyngheid watched the others, she never had had much time to train so it was probably best she stick with her old gear for now, at least.
" Should we go grab a meal and a bite to eat? Then what do you reckon we do next?"
(Did we sell the weapons we found?)
Whistler sells his old Greatsword and gives Baeshra, Not Goblin the coin. 30gp.
"Potion! CAW!" he excitedly squarks, making a mental note to talk to his brain later about stringing words together again.
Whistler - Lost Mines of Phandelver [Lvl 8 Barbarian] | Cinta Yuliani Lestari - My Island Home [Lvl 3 Fighter] | Shalana - Allansia Wildlands [Lvl 4 Monk] | Roger Durant - Storm King's Thunder [Lvl 8 Monster Hunter] | Rotthran - The Waterdeep Heist [Lvl 5 Thief]
Oh, I forgot about that, good call!
You found 4 spears, 4 longswords, 2 light crossbows, 2 heavy crossbows and 8 cases of bolts. Rosie may want to keep a few of the cases of bolts, so for all the rest, Linene gives you 110 Gold pieces.
This doesn't include the special longsword that you found in the chest.
(not yet, I'm not sure if you kept them in your possession while brewing the potion)
Whistler runs over to the shelf and grabs a flask of Alchemist's Fire (flask) and places it on the counter with BIG KENKU EYES. He looks over to Umbriel and mimics, "More bugbears, *crackling fire*" "No more hurt Dwarf!" He says to Lyngheid with a Kenku smile of wonder.

Close, but too expensive, Alchemist's Fire is not available in Phandalin. It might be in Neverwinter though.
If the party is so inclined, they stop back at the Stonehill Inn for an early lunch (1 SP each). They check on Baeshra and find him hard at work in his room, strange smells and bubbling brews swirling through the air.
Umbriel sips some wine as he finishes his lunch. "Baeshra seems to be right in the middle of things with his potion-making. Since we seem to have accomplished all of our shopping, while we wait we could check in with the orchard owner, or we could go up to the Sleeping Giant and see what that's like. Something about Halia Thornton's demeanor bothered me. She seemed disappointed that we ended up killing most of the Redbrands. I can't quite put it together, but there's something else going on there."
" Perhaps she had a use for them in mind, with their leadership gone."
" I don't want to push but my cousin is still captive, probably of this Spider. Has Droop heard of Wave Echo Cave?"
Coin added to party fund for now, do we want to split the 110 from the weapons or party fund it too?
Droop looks up from his bowl of chicken soup, a noodle dangling from his chin. "Nasty Bugbears talk about Echoing Waves in a cave, yes! Nasty. Bugbears. Droop is very helpful, yes! Droop eats more soup!"
Umbriel ponders for a bit, recalling what Sildar told them a couple of days ago. "With the time we have remaining today, let's visit Daran Edermath at the orchard. He's our last lead here in Phandalin that may know where Cragmaw Castle is. If that doesn't pan out, when Baeshra is ready, we can head north, either to the woods and hope to find a goblin patrol, or to Thundertree to look for Reidoth the Druid. Those are the options as I see it. Once we locate Cragmaw Castle, we'll find Gundren and his map to Wave Echo Cave, and perhaps we'll learn who this Black Spider is."
An the way to Edermath Orchard, the party passes the Shrine of Luck, dedicated to Tymora, goddess of luck and good fortune. Sister Garaele recognizes Lyngheid and waves. "Hi sweety! How are you doing? Did you go to see Agatha the Banshee yet?"
At Edermath Orchard, they are greeted by Daran Edermath. "Well hello there, fellow adventurers! You must be the ones you handled the Redbrand issue. Well done! I tell you what, I would have taken care of them myself back in my younger days!" He pats his hip as he walks with a slight limp.
"Sit, sit." He pours glasses of cider for everyone. "It's too early for apples, this is last year's cider, darn good though! Just about right for cherries, you lot can help yourselves to the ripe ones on the trees."
Once everyone is sitting on the wooden lawn chairs, Daran asks "So, what news can you share? Did the Redbrands give you a tough time?"
Ireniana takes a couple of cherries and pops them in her mouth. "Not too hard I'm afraid. We're now looking for a place called Cragmaw Castle."
I have an intelligence of six, I know what I'm doing.
"Cragmaw Castle? Hmm. I've heard of it. Up north somewhere's all I know about it though."
He pauses and mulls something over for a moment.
"Say, speaking of up north, I've hoard some stories from prospectors in the hills to the northeast that someone has been digging around in the ruins up there. Old Owl Well, they call it. In fact ,some of the prospectors have reported being chased from the area by undead. Would you folks stop by the ruins and find out who's there and what they are up to? THe ruins are of an old watchtower of an ancient magical empire known as Netheril, I'm worried that dangerous magic might be dormant there."
" Not as yet, Love. Got some living people to deal with first....but we'll get to it."
Umbriel pulls out the map that Qelline drew for them, and sees that Old Owl Well is on it. "The dead should rest quietly, not harangue the living. I would be interested in investigating this once we find what we're looking for at Cragmaw Castle. I would also be interested in purchasing a bottle of this cider from you, for your time. I believe we're going to need to go north, to Thundertree, if we hope to learn more."
"I agree, son, they should! Thank you, I would take care of it myself, I'm still good with a sword, you know?! But the missus won't let me venture that far out of town."
"The cider? 2 silver for a bottle, if you please."
Daran looks around at the group. "So, where are you off to now?"
