Jarmon enters the room a few seconds after the others. He seems to be a little sleepy after using a lot of the night on finishing his crossbow. "Oh wow, thats.. Thats just great craftsmanship!" He walks up to the cabinet strokes his finger across the sides to feel the grooves in the wood. After Mr.Regald asks his question.

" I am so sorry how rude of me. My name is Jarmon Prideshot, and these two are Brom and Gwythian. Out ship sank by the shores of this island a few days ago and your boss Master Tarvyn was so gracious as to welcome us to stay at his estate for a few days. And we are absolutely amazed by the work your boss does on this island. I suppose we don´t need anything specific from you. We´re just looking around the estate. You do a lot of the fixing and stuff around here?" Jarmon smiles and points to the tools around the room. 

Gwythian mutters a subtle chant under his breathe carefully and sly fully gestures towards the covered figurines. Suddenly a puff of wind blows off their covering.

Allorah looks at you in silence for a moment before answering, "thank you for the kind words, I do put a great deal of effort into the upkeep of this manor. You should have seen it when we first got here... It was an old farm house, some ancestral lot. Tarvyn and I got here and started building this place from the ground up. We brought on the rest as we needed them. Regald and Charmaine first, Vorpip and Dil'gug later." She looks out the window and takes a deep breath "it really is peaceful here, isn't it?" She looks back and smiles, as if looking at the land beyond the walls has revitalized her soul.

Jarmon, Brom and Gwyth

"Ah, thank you sir." Thadeous replies. "I do all of the fixing here. Tarvyn brought me on a few years ago, basically raised this building by hand. we had the ruins of an old farm house to work with but we had to bring it back up to standards." He motions toward his tools, "You can use these while your here, the idle hands of a craftsman can start to burn after too long, cant they." He chuckles as the gust blows the cloth off of his figurines. He jumps down and gathers them up, "Personal project of mine, not quite ready for the public eye, I'm sure you understand..." He puts them in a chest in the back of the workshop and locks it.

Allorah begins cleaning while she talks, "We met in Ralohice. My family has been maids to the royal family for generations. He was there at the university, the private one, not the public one. I've never been sure how he managed to get into that program, it's usually only reserved for the very elite. That's Tarvyn for you though, he has a knack for getting what he wants." She lets out a slight laugh as she tosses you a broom. 

"What sort of personal project?" Gwythian say's quite bluntly but with a hint of intrigue while at the same time trying carefully not to sound suspicious.

"I have a deep fondness for arts and crafts. Tell me Thadeous, what personal love keeps a craftsmen s hands such as your own from being idle? Fixing and mending are one thing, but those figurines seem altogether, quite another."

Thadeous looks at you for a moment before responding, "They are something to remind me of my life back home. Nothing too interesting, and certainly nothing that needs to be displayed for the world to see. The fixing is what I like. Taking a broken thing and making it new again. Simple mechanics. That's what I love, the carving, is merely for optics." As he is talking to you, he resumes work on his project, carving along the intricate designs."

Shaede

Allorah responds with a laugh, "Oh yes, there are many jovial yarns I could weave about the Royal family. When you have all the money in the world and live for hundreds of years, there isn't much you are unwilling to try." She sighs with nostalgia before continuing, "I left because I wanted to see the world. My family had done the same job for generations. There was no choice in the matter. So I waited until my brother had a child before I left with Tarvyn in the night. This way, there is someone to carry on the tradition, and I get to see the world. Win, win, right?." 

Gwythian examines the intricate handiwork Thadeous is currently carving for signs of anything unusual.

Jarmon presents his crossbow for Thadeous. "Since you´re here, I would like a fellow craftsman to look at this and tell me what they think. I made her myself, the carvings are to remind me of my family back home too. I call her Patty" The crossbow is rather hefty and large, but Jarmon seems to lift it with ease. It is made out of light wood he acquired before travelling. The arms of the crossbow are made of iron and polished smooth, but not shiny. On the handle and almost on the entirety of the wood there are small carvings of forest details, and on the largest piece of wood at the end of the handle there is a carving of a chimera. 

He smiles.

You notice that the image of the face-up coin is not just on the handles, but that it is scattered throughout the piece. Tiny in some places, larger in others.

Jarmon

He rotates it in his hands as he looks at it. His eyebrows lift up in intrigue as he responds, "This is a very nice piece, may I make one change?"

Allorah pauses to look out the window, she takes a contemplative breath and replies, "There is still much for me to see. The wonders of the island are dazzling, but I want to smell the rolling Green hills of Vocorran, and walk through the ghost town of Ersa. I want to play cards at a swanky table in Paolo. Maybe once we get the island established and there is more revenue, I can make my own journey. But, for now, I must stick it out with Tarvyn, we did start this together after all."

Shaede

"Allorah, I am sure that day will come for you.  This island and its park has much potential.  However, Tarvyn is having some issues controlling his beasts.  You know, we were attacked twice already, and we came only a short time ago.  Do you have any reason to believe that someone on this island is attempting to destroy everything that you and Tarvyn have worked so hard?  Also, what do you know about Tarvyn's days at university?  I have a feeling they were not as good as the typical student."

Brom

Brom is still examining the cabinet and also listening to the conversation intently for any clues.

Jarmon takes the crossbow back with and grips it firmly. "I´m sorry it has a lot of affectional value to me already so it really depends. What do you have in mind?"

Shaede

Allorah laughs, "Tarvyn was a bit eccentric in his university days...." She shifts her weight to the other leg, "I can't imagine anyone would want to harm the island or anyone on it. We have all spent so much time and money on the project, why destroy something you helped to build?" She pauses for a moment in contemplation, "This is an old island, and there were residents long before our arrival, perhaps they have buried secrets that even I don't understand..." 

You get the idea that she is not giving you the whole truth.

Brom

You get an incredible view of the project and see that the coin symbol occasionally has different expressions on the face. Some are happy, some are sad, some are angry. It seems random, and you can't figure out what the difference means. 

Jarmon

Mr. Regald looks at you seriously, he steps closer to you and nearly whispers, "You must trust me. There are foul things happening and I can offer you some protection. But I need your trust." 

"Hmmm, i´m not sure." Jarmon scratches his chin. He looks very tempted

Insight check: 12 (Does it look like he is lying?)

(OOC. Now thats just a sad roll)

"This is Tymora's symbol is it not?" Gwythian says to Thadeous?

OOC hey just wanted to ask if any of you guys bother with Twitter at all? If so give us a follow and I'll follow back @mondaysmite is mine. It's a page for my podcast but I'm using it just to shoot the shit about anything dnd related and was thinking about posting some bits and pieces here and there about this game too.

Gwyth

"How astute, you are correct, that is the symbol of Tymora. Something to remind me of home." You see his face twist with annoyance. 

Jarmon

You can't get a good read on him, in flashes he seems to be highly sincere and in others he seems as if he is withholding.
