Blitz looks at Zmyth and then back at the old women. He feels confident that with the Dragonborn here and with his own magical abilities he’ll be safe so, he decides to get into her wagon.
As Blitz climbs aboard, Zmyth spins his halberd once in a circle at his side, bringing the butt end of the shaft down on the ground hard at the end of the 360, not breaking eye contact with the woman. He then follows the Dwarf into the carriage.
"But of course dear" says Kriz giving two gold to the halfling "that melody was delicious wasn't it the Prayer of The Wildmother? Telling us something? Like what my dear friend?"
"You look like you need something m'dear," the halfling grinning widely then nodding at Xu. "You look like a man who's looking for answers too," he adds. "This is a member's only type establishment," he adds next with snap of his figures a slit in the door appears with a pair of glowing red eyes looking out.

The old woman doesn't look the least bit intimidated by Zmyth's show and once both are you in the cart she moves on at a steady pace away from the Wintermarsh warehouse back towards the front gates.
"Like I said I couldn't help but overhear your plight master dwarf," the old woman begins with a curt nod.
She looks well kept herself and although her clothing is not a uniform you can tell there is some stately grace and authority around her giving the impression she has some power, somwehere...

“I see. There’s a lot of those around here it seems. And do they hire our lot to perform inside or the members bore to death once they enter it? “ after she hears the answer she ask again “ And how do you become a member if I may ask?”
OOC: It's basically a horse and cart, but very fine like the one below...

"Why to get inside m'dear you but perform of course," the halfling replies, "this is a performers respite," he explains next. "Once inside however we have no need of entertainment being we're so entertaining ourselves," he adds winking.
"My mistress is the one who died mysteriously not four days ago," the woman begins talking low so only you two can hear her, "I am hoping to get to the bottom of it but I think...," she then pauses looking at you both. "How...how did you know my lady," she asks next.

“Oh I see “ replies Kriz “ so we are the ones who are allowed “ he smiles “ a place to relax and exchange histories and songs and...” for a moment she feel lost in her own memories.
“ Ahem, but tell me my friend “ she adds letting another 2 gold in the halfling’s house “ have you heard of a noble that could be here? A young man of high stance that could here trying to avoid unwanted attention?”
(OOC: I am deducting the gold from her purse as we talk ;) )
“Truthfully. I don’t know her personally but I would have liked to. Like I’ve said before I come from a noble house in Kraghammer. I originally came to this city In order to study my magic in a place away from my family. Of course, I always want to make friends in high places as well. Recently me, my friend here, and some others have been hired to investigate Tobias Wintermarsh. We believe that there might be some truth in the rumors of his involvement in your dear Lady’s death. I was hoping to do some investigating once inside the house but as you saw that didn’t work out.” Blitz explains to the women.
"Play me a song and I'll let you inside to have a look yourself," the halfling pockets the coins again with a smile as you hear a muffled chuckle from the door as the red eyes remain peering out at you both.
Kriz please pick your act and roll performance!
Xu if you'd like to help her or look around please do so!

"They'll have none of your help there," the older woman replies. "I think most are glad she's passed on and those who are not are too afraid to broker any protest," she adds her tone still low as you approach the gates. "My nephew's on the house guard and suggested the young blackheart is staying somewhere in the Quadroads so that's where I'm headed," she explains.

Soon after she began to play she closes her eyes and let the music guide her fingers and soul. She really neeed this and soon forgets about their mission or that she was in the middle of the street for that matter. She only plays.
"I would like the help as well as the...protection," she adds with a smile at Zmyth. "His spies are everywhere money can buy them," she adds looking around suspiciously now as you reach the outer gates and pass through without being stopped. "Is there somewhere we can discuss things? Somewhere I won't be seen," she adds throwing a wrap around her head now and urging the horse through the crowded streets of the Abundance Terrace.

OOC: I'm not getting the impression this is an open carriage, not a closed one as I was assuming before.
Zmyth sits quietly, observing the woman.

“Yes. Well thank you for taking an interest but do tell me; who are you and why take an interest in my affairs?” Blitz asks the women.

Kriz smiles takes out her violin and her arch and makes some warming up movements and notes,
Then she turns to Xuix, winks him and start playing spining to look at the halfling and the curious red eyes that stares them from the door.

Clapping at the end of her playing the door to the Gilded Sparrow opens and behind the door you see a half-orc woman wiping tears from her red eyes.
"Was lovely," she replies with a husky tone, "please do come in," she adds grinning a tusky grin and gesturing for you both to enter.

"Well, then my fair lady. If you wouldn't mind we would love to join you in order to find young Tobias." Blitz says with a smile.
"I would like the help as well as the...protection," she adds with a smile at Zmyth.

Insight to judge whether the woman is being sincere: 20
She seems very serious and truthful.

OK. Zmyth will sit back and await life's next adventure. Passive perception only (13).
