Zmyth smoothly steps forward and deposits six gold pieces in the human's hand with a slight bow. He then steps back, returning to his station.
OOC: You had said one human, but not how many half-orcs, so I didn't know how many guards were were looking at. And I was wondering if we started hitting these guys if others would see, or if we are hidden from the public here.
Nodding at Zmyth and Blitz stepping aside. "You've got an hour then I'm sending them after you," the human says waving the half-orcs off who let you enter a queue having formed behind you both.

“Let’s check the carriage Xuix. Let’s see if we can find out to who it belongs...” says Kriz to his companion and approaches it looking of there is a valet or the driver near.
Blitz just doesn't argue, believing the guard wouldn't even be done with this line in an hour, and quickly makes himself in and looks around for the Wintermarsh estate.
While walking down the busy street, Zmyth discretely says to Blitz, "My lord, I'm sure you have an idea of my capabilities, as I carry my weapon out in the open, easy for all to see. Your skills, however, are still a mystery to me. While I'm sure your position and experience as a member of one of Kraghammer's noble houses is an asset to Nasser, do you possess other talents which might be helpful to our cause, in case we must resort to more than talk?"
Blitz let’s out a sight before muttering under his breath “Our family really needs to establish ourselves outside of Kraghammer.” He then says loud enough for the Dragonborn to hear “The Thunderbrands are the wizarding clan of the dwarves. All the best dwarf wizards that ever was is a Thunderbrand. Anything arcane in nature ever done by the dwarves had a Thunderbrand involved. Know, magic is complicated and there are several different areas of expertise. I myself am an Elementalist meaning I use my magic to weave and control the elements. You know fire, ice, lightning, the works. Most of my powers are destructive in nature so I can handle a fight. Of course, I do have a few things that aren’t destructive in any way shape or form but they are mainly used to gain an understanding of something magical.”
Zmyth bows his head respectfully. "A wielder of the arcane," he responds. "My master's family —" the sentence catches abruptly in Zmyth's throat before he continues, "I've only personally known a few with that talent. My skill lies in strength and the blade. As I understand it, those with arcane abilities are not looked upon with favor here in Vasselheim."
"No, they are not. This city clings to the Gods and dislikes those who get their magical powers through hard work and study. So, I'd prefer not to unleash my powers if I didn't have too." Blitz responds.
Blitz and Zmyth entering the Golden Arce you see there building begin to dwindle the further in, open tracks of land expand around you with those villas perched on terraces nearing the Silver Reach at the very least a mile away. A sign hanging from a building carved into a bunch of grapes reads Wintermarsh Winery calls your attention as soon you both turn the corner at one of the last stands of buildings. It's a large and impressive white stone building with wide arches and barrels of wine, you assume, being loaded onto a myriad of carts and wagons. There's a dark skinned hill dwarf with a tablet checking off barrels on a cart with the symbols of the Quaroads on it's side as well as many strong arms about moving barrels with easy goliaths and half-orcs doing most of the labor under the directions of humans, half-elves, and hill dwarves.
Xu and Kriz the carriage is empty of occupants but there is a human driver sleeping in the jump seat, the symbol on the side of the carriage is a Lion clutching a bunch of arrows.
History check to see if you know who/what the symbol means.

Zmyth touches Blitz's shoulder lightly, causing the Dwarf to pause. Zmyth continues forward toward the dark-skinned hill dwarf. At about 10 feet, Zmyth stops and bows slightly. "Lord Blitz Thunderbrand of the Kraghammer Thunderbrands wishes to personally offer his condolences to the Wintermarshe household on the recent passing of their mistress. Would you be so kind as to point us toward the main house?"
OOC: FINALLY got my account back guys!! So sorry!!
Xu and Kriz give me some stealth rolls to remain unseen by passerby the alley as well as not to wake the man sleeping above in the driver's seat. Kriz you do recognize the symbol on the carriage as a great house from the Quadroads, house Grimlock are known alchemists and potion masters.
Blitz and Zmyth the dwarf sizes you both up and after Zmyth's speaks seems convinced of your intentions. "The villa's about a half mile up the Golden Arce," the dwarf points to the road you've been traveling. "The estate is the second on the road west but you'll see the marker, a griffin clutching a bunch of grapes," he explains next before turning from the party to yell at a half-orc who's just fumbled a barrel makes it break open on the cobblestones. "That'll be your weekly wage Fanghorn," he growls walking away from you both.
Xu you knock around a bit but manage to get into the carriage without waking the man above. You see it's a fairly nice carriage with leather plush interior and bench seats.
OOC: What/where are you searching with your awesome roll?

Ooc-just searching really first thing I can find that looks like I should take note of it.

“Do you not know what the Thunderbrands do?” Blitz asks the Dragonborn
"I do not. And I hesitate to assume."

Zmyth silently nods again.
