Ru with your roll you remember the easier way back to the Abundant Terrace but it's midday now and it's since warmed up so the city street are bustling with people moving about, selling their wares, and trying to pickpockets. Ranla, Zeek, and Ru are moving at a steady pace and would reach the Abundant Terrace by early evening if they strive to keep walking along the north to south round that leads from The Quadroads towards the Abundant Terrance and Silver Talon's Reach. Is that your plan? Stop and shop? Eat? Anything else?
Meanwhile...in the Cunning Belles Gareth looks curiously at Kriz. "You really want to hire us for a job and are trying to warn Tobias," Gareth asks Blitz looking anxiously between the two of you for reassurance. He's not the brightest bulb in the box but he's big, strong, and young so he makes a good meat shield.... Gareth will remain convinced of Kriz's honesty but needs reassurance from the dwarf. Blitz persuasion or deception check please to convince him you're a friend. What's y'all move?
"We're really looking to warn Tobias and settle the whole thing peacefully. And I always have room and a job for a big, strong, young man like you." Blitz says hoping that the flattery will help in his attempt to persuade this man. After all, he already made an enemy of one contact.

Gareth believes you and rises from the table pocketing the gold he's won from you and seems ready to head out. It's only been a few moments since Bryn took his leave but just long enough for when you step out of the the Cunning Bells he's not in sight in either direction.
"Come he'll probably head to another tavern before our barracks," Gareth beginings. "The Wintermarsh pays is all right but better than they include a place to sleep that's reasonably comfortable. Bryn and I share a bunk with sixteen others. But it's four on at all times so we all sleep in shifts," he explains almost oddly eager to share with you his simple but contented life.
Moving south down the High road that runs north to south you come to yet another pub but is more Elvish than human in it's design, even the sign is in Elvish, that reads The Willows. It has an actual willow tree carved into the wooden plank hanging above the front door as the sign.
"Bet he's inside," Gareth says gesturing towards the door before entering assuming you follow him just as the clocktower in the square chimes 6pm.
Ranla, Ru, and Zeek you've made it to the Abundant Terrace from the Quadroads in three hours on foot. You enter just as the large clocktower in the square chimes 6pm. You notices immediately after leaving the transition zone between the Qaudroads and the Terrace that the weather here is magically altered. It's spring almost summer in temperature. The streets are filled with people as well as the square, it's lined with tents ad wagons selling all types of wares. Just off the clocktower there is a large temple constructed out of what looks like a large tree that would be big enough for two mountain giants to climb! It's alive, thriving even with stone doors as the base of the trunk that are thrown open with people, all types, coming in and out back into the central square. The temple of Melora is green and welcoming.

While they are walking towards The Willows Kriz grabs Gareth from his arm, and listen to him.She then approaches his ear and whisper
"uh uh. Not tonight dear. Tonight you will not sleep... "
The half-elven bard follows the guard into the tavern, hoping to defuse the situation and be able to get a possible location for the young Wintermarsh.
OOC: I still need perception checks for Ranla and Ru...
Going into The Willows the three of you see its a bit more subdue than the Cunning Belles. It's a smaller pub with a cozy yet cramped layout. There is a large open area where patrons sit at different clusters of tables for four as well as an upper level where people can find privacy in small alcoves that look down on the room from above. Gareth is looking around from table to table for his friends as an elven woman with silverying hair approaches the party, "Are you meeting a member or are you a member dear," the bartender asks Kriz not even acknowledging Gareth or Blitz. Once she speaks those words as you look around you can see the clientele is either elven or half-elven!
Blitz and Kriz can roll investigation checks to aid Gareth in his search for Bryn.
Zeek in the square your eyes are curiously drawn to all manner of people but no person in particular. Ranla and Ru are speaking together as the look around the square as if trying to figure out where to go next.

“I am not yet a member “ Kriz answers to the woman “But I am sure that we can solve that soon.” Finish with a smile. “In the meantime we would like to meet one friend.. oh look! There he is. “She says when Gareth sees Bryn and follows the guard stairs up, not waiting for the waitress answer.
“Bryn. I am so happy to see you. “ she speaks in elven to him “ You left so quickly I couldn’t explain to you, but seenig this “ she waves her hand covering the establishment “I can understand you. How come you never speak of this place to me?” These words doesn´t sounds as an accusation but as a compliment to the place and the good taste of the half-elf. She hopes that the guard is more receptive.
Kriz roll pick deception or persuasion, Bryn isn't sold on you still and annoyed even you've barged into his club. It looks a lot classier than you imagine a hired guard can afford to frequent but they you remember his brag about his father being an elven diplomat....
Ru and Zeek not noticing anyone you know either past party members or who your currently pursuing what's your plan? Temple of Melora is within view you are standing now in the square with all manner of trafficking moving about you.

Kriz gets closer to Bryn and lowers her voice. She gives him, more or less, the same speech that she gave to Gareth, in elvish, but unlike with Gareth she doesn't tries to seduce him. She treats him as a comrade.
"Look Bryn. Please excuse me, I was trying not to get you, truly involved. Let me explain you please. Lord Thunderbrand has told me that maybe Tobias had gotten himself into trouble by keeping to himself an item that doesn't belong to him. He is trying to reach him, even though this dificult times for his family, and try to solve the whole mess. We don't want that neither Tobias nor the Wintermarsh family getting involved in any kind of scandal out of just a misunderstanding, but you know how this things works. The people just love to gossip. And that's why we are trying to keep a low profile here. And by any circustance I would allow that you two, get involved in this matter. That's why I came up with the little deception that Lord Thunderbrand may be interested in hiring you two for his travel home. Wich could happen by the way, but that's an entirely different matter." she looks briefly to Blitz saying that but moves her hand as to put away that topic. " You know what used to happen in these situations, the noble just point towards a maid, a housekeeper or a... loyal guard.And I am worried for Gareth.He is just to naive. I have come to like you both and consider you two as friends. I am beign completely honest with you now. We just want to find young Tobias and speak to him. Explain the whole situation and finish the matter quietly and fast. Could you help me just by telling me where he could be? The taverns he likes, or other place you know of him to visit? It's just that" she opens her arms with the palms facing Bryn"talk to him, retrieve the... box I think it is, and leave Tobias alone. I think that he has enough problems right now, just want to take one off his shoulders, one that he probably doesn't know he has."
Bryn looks skeptically at you then Blitz before heaving a long sigh.
"I don't know why you've chosen to help either of these men but I certainly don't want to be accused of anything," Bryn exclaims. "He's at the Veil of Shadows in the Duskmeadow," he answers in a whisper. "They won't let you in there you know," he grabs your arm squeezing it Kris. "Not just anyone, not like this place..." he trails off with a sneer at you and Blitz. "Anyways who's he cheated now," he asks next with a curiously lifted eyebrow looking to Kriz again to explain.
Blitz as you look around the architecture I need you to roll a perception check.
