"I am sure they are fine scholars, but if they fall down a hole because their robes get caught on something I hope at least my costs would be covered." He smiles at Vanessa, negotiating has always been a bit fun... at least for him. He very rarely got any concessions out of her, but the fun was in the trying.
After telling Victor about her strange dream and the omen it seemed to give Sayre, she goes back to sleep hoping to wake up the next morning with fresh eyes to the problem at hand.
<insert what I said before meeting my party in the early morning at breakfast.>
OOC: Veronica is what you call Vanessa when you just watched a Riverdale commercial and you are trying to post before you leave for work of course. :) Thanks for catching that.
Serik felt a warm river of pride flow through him at the compliments. He returned Locke's bow with another of his own. The runes painstakingly carved into his staff began to glow as if lit by a fire within the staff. A grin appeared on Serik's face. "Oh Milady...you do know how to inspire the troops." Erik let a lil hint of playful flirtation into his tone, but bowed to show his respect for Vanessa and her position. "We will not fail you, Milady."
Satre: Victor listens intently, and then shows her what he was writing when he fell asleep. A symbol of an S entombed by Snakes. He explained it was in the room, seemingly left by the girl. He yawns deeply. "we are no good half asleep. Lets pick this up in the morning over ale and eggs." He then also goes to sleep.
Vanessa hands the contract to you Devynn, "I think not, 2000 is a fair price for what we are asking you. Not to mention far more then you will receive from any other contract." Vanessa watches you expectantly Devynn, Tapping her foot on the oak floor. Clearly wanting to have this done so she can get some sleep.

So, Devynn you mark your mark and produce a single drop of blood next to it. Binding you to the contract, Vanessa takes it from you and brings it to her desk. She is like the walking dead right now, Visibly exhausted and ready to sleep. She Rolls the contract and binds it with a single red leather strip. Sealing it all with wax, pressing the Symbol of the Take into the wax as it sets. Locke walks to vanessas side and places a hand on her shoulder "Go get some rest Vanessa, You clearly need it." He takes the sealed contract from her, She nods to you both Serik and Devynn as she leaves the office. Locke Hands the contract to you Serik, He bows his head slightly to you both before also leaving the small office. With you both left alone in the small office, With the experience you both have you know that the contract dosent officially start until The Dawn of the following day. With dawn only a few hours away, You get the feeling you should rest for the night and meet with your fellow Slayers in the Morning.

"Let's go, Serik, maybe have time to wolf down some food before we collapse. Still having that much gold will feel pretty good." As he strides out he casually reaches into a pouch at his belt and pulls out some dried meat.
He heads back to the Tavern where he rents a room and goes to sleep. Before he sleeps though he casually slides a side table slightly in front of the door so even the stealthiest person would make noise trying to get in. It isn't that he doesn't feel safe here, it is just his nature to not sleep without at least a modicum of protection.
Serik stuffs the contract into a belt pouch to keep it safe. "Not much time left for sleeping...but some is better then none I suppose...." Erik turns and heads for the exit, following in Devvyn's wake.
Serik returns to the Inn as well, and is given the room across the hall from Devvyn. He can hear the quiet scuffing sounds he knew to associate with a table being slid in front of the door. He smiled to himself, glad that some things never change.
The Owl descended from his staff down to one of the bed posts as he leaned his staff against one of the walls. He removed his belt and pouches and set them on the table. He laid down and closed his eyes.
It felt like only moments later the Owl was screeching at him and he found himself awake again. He guessed he had slept for maybe a few hours, but it was still early, prolly about an hour before anyone else would be up. He got up and stretched, wiping sleep from his eyes. He set about his normal morning routine, refreshing the spells that composed his magic armor, hexes, and tended to other minor matters before heading out to meet his party.
OOC: Serik wakes up early to take a short rest after refreshing his mage armor and hex spells. Gains 14 tempHP.
Ok so you you all Sleep and get a Longrest, The early hours of the morning begins with the sounds of the city coming to life for the day. The Mornings sun Is over the horizon on a cloudless and cold day. There is a layer of light snow covering most everything outside. You all come to consciousness and prepare yourselfs in what ever manner you wish. Serik and Devynn you both are waiting near the main Door of the Take, Awaiting Victor and Sayre who eventually both find their way towards you. Murtin,Vanessa and Locke are no where to be seen. There is a Small leather Case on a table near the door with a note thats reads "For the Road - Locke". The case contains 4 Greater Healing potions.

Knowing where the traditional 'send off package' will be Sayre goes to get it before knowing she'll meet Victor for breakfast and their usual chat. Returning to their usual table she gives the bard his potion and plans to hand out the other two, keeping one for herself, upon meeting their new party members. For now however Sayre puts them in her satchel and awaits their new party members with Victor in the mess hall. They discuss where to start the mornings inquiries either by the scene of the crime or elsewhere.

DM Note: Ok, to clear things up about the Slayers Take. There is a Main hall/entrance area that connects to several different room. Vanessas office, Murtin and Vanessas Bedroom. A Small Kitchen with a mess hall (This is where most Slayers can be found when not completing a contract), A Storage room and a Room with 2 Cells in it. On the Far side of the Main hall is a set of stairs that lead up to the Personal quarters of the Take members.

"You knew before you offered I wasn't gonna turn it down. Too much gold. Contract accepted." Devynn smiles broadly.

Serik leaned against the door in the Main hall, watching as a female tiefling walked up and grabbed a package and headed back to the mess hall.
OOC: We're still at the Take having stayed in our rooms there Serik not in a tavern.

OOC: I see lol. Well I edited. I assume Serik and Devin are outside waiting...since if they inside u walked right by them I think. Lol
OOC: thank you DM, sorry for my confusion
OOC: P.S. you didn't see Sayre take the potion's either so maybe no metagaming?
