Candlekeep Mysteries Group 2

Mav tips his hat and smiles devilishly at the maid. 

Then sighs and turns to the party "Hopefully you know whats going on, I mean this isn't a bad place to get trapped I suppose but it is rather boring here."

Hino waves to her friend Jolene (the maid currently cleaning the room).  "Hey hon!" she calls out, not knowing if her voice will carry across the void.

Turning on her heels, she'll reluctantly follow the absentminded Emporious.  "C'mon guys....someone's gotta follow the absentminded professor here, lest he get himself killed with his nose in a book."

"Excellent! We'll all wait then."  says the wizard with a relieved look upon his face.. As soon as the portal closes he gives Orvok a slight bow and s sweep of his arm indicating that Orvok may lead them on to room M14 or which ever room he would like.

"Yes, I believe we need to go back upstairs to the opposite side of where the planetarium was."  Isa will fall in line following whoever leads up the stairs.

"I do hope that maid heard Orvok's warning." she mutters.

Barbär is very confused with the servants suggestion, and thinking they may be a little off he follows them.

These fellows certainly do not understand, ill meet you there friends.

As Barbär gets back to the kitchen

Guys i appreciate your generosity. Our situation im afraid cant be helped with any common foods. Do you have any magics you can lend to us, or perhaps a command word for the faerie dragons? Im sure they can be helpful if they can fly and be unseen. If they can communicate with you or us perhaps they know what we are even looking for. I just dont want to release something mad into the outer world. 

‘Get out of the room and barricade the door until we say it’s safe!’ shouts Orvok through the portal, hoping his voice carries...
The maid's eyes widen and she looks around for a moment, concerned, but then after a few moments, says, "Nooo. Must clean. No leave. Must clean. I have no money. No. Noooo." 

"Hey hon!" she calls out, not knowing if her voice will carry across the void.
"Nooo." the maid declines, and keeps cleaning.

"We disagree! Tomato?"
Do you have any magics you can lend to us, or perhaps a command word for the faerie dragons?
"Magics? Yes! The magic of flavor!"
Im sure they can be helpful if they can fly and be unseen. If they can communicate with you or us perhaps they know what we are even looking for. I just dont want to release something mad into the outer world. 
"Blah Blah. Would you like this toasted?"

M14 - TROPHY ROOM

Each corner of this pleasant parlor has a scarlet armchair and a reading table piled high with books. A cheery fire burns in the fireplace. A pair of swords sits in a rack above the fireplace, and the heads of various animals are mounted on the walls. The puzzle book with the letter Y on its spine is on the table.

Erm. You are clearly masters in your field. Do you have any foods that could last a while on our travels? Barbär shakes his head trying to focus on the task at hand Sorry. Can i get it to go? He says as he turns and walks to the hall.

(Perception to locate the party, with guidance! 12 + 1

Investigating the books: 18

Emporious goes straight for the piles of books looking for the typical spells or any thing on curses.

"Maybe that's not......such......a ....good idea...." Mav winds down as Emporious rushes the stack of books.  Then quieter and to no one in particular says "Last time we were attacked by a pile of books..."

Erm. You are clearly masters in your field. Do you have any foods that could last a while on our travels? Barbär shakes his head trying to focus on the task at hand Sorry. Can i get it to go?

"Uh, no? Not good to eat and run. Come. Mayo, or mustard?"

Emporius: No spells on curses, but there's a book on how to knit.

Emporious dejectedly tosses a book about knitting onto the seat of one of the chairs. "I'm beginning to doubt there is any help here." he bemoans. Looking around at those gathered he asks, "Where's Barbär?" 

"I think he's still in the kitchen..."

You can smell a toasted sandwich coming from the kitchen, like Quiznos.

"I'm really sorry Emporious but it doesn't appear that there is much in this room, shall we move on to the next one (M15)?"

Barbär keeps his ears open to find his way back to the group

Nobody's been attacked? Nothing more found out? He says to Isa, coming from the room Emporious, Mavshoon, i think were moving on from this one. This way! He motions to them, following Isa

Mav says "You smell like roasted tomatoes....were you in the kitchen?"

"Nothing... just a few books, a fire, some game heads, and a couple of swords on the wall.... let's move on." she replies.

Where to?

Emporious follows the group with Archie preening on his shoulder.

M15 - BEDROOM

This is an open and airy bedroom. A canopied bed with rich scarlet curtains occupies one corner. A jug and a washbasin stand on top of a chest of drawers, and a fluffy black cat is napping on a scarlet easy chair. One wall is covered with a large painting of a gold dragon perched heroically on a mountaintop.
