"So you stole artifacts that you knew nothing about? My guess would be that's why you are sick. Something to do with those artifacts." Telias shakes his head and mutters. "When will people learn to leave things like that alone."

Nalla gives the dwarf a dirty look, stepping away from the spit. As she nods in agreement with Telias. "He is right. You shouldn't touch things until you can at least know if there is a magic aura about them."

The dwarf returns Nalla's look, angry.  You got anything useful to say, any of you?  Or you just here to preach.  If so, you can get the hells out.

Listen, lady, we're trying to help, but we don't know what in the nine hells is goin' on round here. Sunshine puts her hands on her hips and stares her down, her red eyes narrowing. So, like, give us a bone here or somethin'. How long ya been sick?

Mr. Fists nods and shows his symbol of Raei. "I preach. Raei can help guide you like me. We can help you."

"That wasn't preaching. It was stating a fact that most would know to follow." Nalla said to the others, giving a helpless shrug about the dwarf's attitude.

A few weeks, Tulgi replies.  I dunno when I got sick.  The veins were all over my back by the time I noticed them.  I just thought it was cold.  Then they started spreading, and the pain started, and the slowing down, and...   Look, you gonna look for a cure for me or what?  Otherwise, what use are you?  I was gonna go to that bloody shop, Pelc's, after Urgon's.  But, you know, I needed to warm up a bit first.  She inches closer to the fire.

You have a few options; you can continue to talk to Tulgi and ask her more questions, or you could investigate the shop Pelc's Curiosities that she mentioned.  

Nalla will make note of what she is told by the dwarf and then turn to leave so that they can continue to follow the leads given.

Telias will wait to be the last person out. "We will do our best. In the meantime, stay warm and have faith." Then he walks out without waiting for a reply.

There's no response from Tulgi as you leave.

You are able to find Pelc's Curiosities without much trouble, by asking people as you pass by.  After only a few minutes, you all stand before a dark cabin with a sign over its door which reads, “Pelc’s Curiosities,” with the image of a curving dragon used to make the letter P. Though the shop appears closed, the front door is slightly ajar.

Mr. Fists stands near the door in a fighting stance in case something is on the other side.

Nalla will stay back thirty or so feet, muttering as she summons her Mage Hand up once more. She will slowly move or forward to have it push the door open, stepping to the side so that she is not standing directly in front of it.

As soon as they're a fair distance away from Tulgi's place, Sunshine claps her hands together. Well, she was a fun one, wasn't she?

She keeps her head up as they walk, eyes scanning around. Listen, nearly dying to a rage-filled dwarf has unnerved her a bit. Enough that when they approach the opened door, she lets out a quiet groan and draws her daggers instinctively.

"Looks like an open invitation to me. At least there isn't an angry dwarf yelling at us... yet at least." Verdan makes his way to the front door, stepping inside.

As Sunshine and Verdan approach the open door,  you both hear whispers of voices and footsteps coming from inside.  Are you still going in?

Hearing voices as he approaches the door, Verdan delays, listening carefully.

Perception: 21

"Hurry!"  "Check under that cabinet" "I already looked there"

The voices and the clatter of objects suggest that there are perhaps four or five people, and they are looking for something.  They also speak in Elvish, which fortunately Verdan understands.

Verdan stops suddenly, indicating to the group to be quiet. He whispers back to the group, "I hear 4-5 voices in there, speaking elvish. Sounds like looters based on the conversation I can make out."

Sunshine stops at Verdan's gesture, her head cocking to the side. Then she sidles right up next to him and keeps her voice low as she murmurs, What do we wanna do? Scare 'em off, confront 'em, what?
