Twig shakes her head vigorously to clear her vision. "Well...there were a lot of trees, and a lot off statues of warriors.... I'll recognize it when we get there!" She looks at the coin then looks back up at the others. "Anyone else want to try?"
Roland glanced down at the coin, then at the old man, then back at Twig. He seemed ready to shake his head, before stopping and rubbing his chin. "Well, it would probably be better to have at least two of us who've seen the area. So... sure, might as well."
Taking the coin from Twig, he reached to the handaxe on his belt with his other hand and nicked his thumb on the blade, then spread his blood onto the coin.
(( After seeing the vision, Roland will offer the coin to anyone else who wants to use, or even just carry it. ))
Delbyn raises his hand for silence. You hear the pounding footsteps of the guards on the pier. Through the window you see them carrying lanterns held up high as they board the ship. Delbyn whispers "Don't move"He then whispers a phrase and everyone's body becomes translucent and ghostly. The guards begin searching the houseboat and can't seem to see the light from the fireplace as they continue using their lanterns.
A guard passes right through Roland's body.
After upending dressers and searching the house a guard steps forward. "There is no one here. Lets check the taverns and Inns"
Delbyn waits for a while to check if they are truly gone before releasing his spell. "As my benefactors you can stay here for the night if you wish. Its safer than being out there"
"That seems like a wise course of action. You have our thanks. Stop this curse we will." Zhernon begins walking around and looking for a place to bunk down in the immediate area.
Delbyn points to the stairs. "There is a bedroom upstairs everyone can sleep in" He heads upstairs and shows those that are interested a room that has 2 bunk beds, chamber pots and comfy rugs."If you need me I'll be in my room 2 doors down."
(Everyone can get a long rest or do anything else you wish.)
Roland chuckled. "I could use the rest," he said. The farmboy sat on a bed, then seemed to remember something. He reached out his hand and summoned his other handaxe from his room in the inn. "Guess I'll sneak over and grab my shield in the morning," he muttered to himself, before doffing his armor, then yawning. "Wake me if there's an emergency," he said before promptly beginning to snore.
If everyone is staying then the rest of night passes uneventfully and it is now Dawn. You can smell eggs and hear the sounds of sizzling bacon downstairs. The sounds of seagulls can also be heard as you wake.
Twig, who had attempted to stay up all night before falling asleep under the dining room table, is the first to wake up smelling the bacon. "That smells SOOOOOO good. I'm STARVING!"She exclaims as she crawls out from her sleeping space directly onto a chair. "Can i have some now? Please? PLEASE?"
Roland came down the stairs, already clad in armor, rubbing his eyes. "Ah, that's a smell I'm always fond of!" he smiled as he took a seat. "Thank you for your hospitality, Delbyn. And for the help with our... situation."
"No problem. After all you risked your necks to get me out. Now have some of this delicious breakfast before you head out" says Delbyn as he plates the food and offers orange juice.
"The salt and pepper shakers are over there on the table."
"I believe we are," said Roland as he gathered the last of his things and shook Delbyn's hand. As the others made their way to the door, he let them know he needed to head to the inn. "I left my shield there; we are still paid up, so there should be no issue. I'll try to be quick and nonchalant. I don't *expect* to run into the prison guards, but I'll still keep an eye out on the way there. I should be back shortly."
"If you're concerned about being recognized, then let Zhernon and I go instead. We're less likely to be recognized, seeing as Zhernon was 'human' for a short while and I can just show my scales." Tilsu suggests, "Besides I feel like we should make a stop by the stores here to resupply if we're just going to go explore the island for this shrine of sorts."

(What do you next? Does everyone hunker down for the night?)
Twig looks to the others, "I'm not tired. I can stay up ALLL night." She grins, "Unless you all need a break, i say we just get on with our quest!"
(Zhernon is taking the man up on his offer and resting for the night. But if Twig wants to run off on her own they won't stop her!)
Roland chuckled. "I could use the rest," he said. The farmboy sat on a bed, then seemed to remember something. He reached out his hand and summoned his other handaxe from his room in the inn.

"The salt and pepper shakers are over there on the table."
Zhernon came down not long after the others, looking a bit better perhaps and sat down with a very appreciative "thank you" to share the breakfast.
Tilsu comes down after donning her chainmail once more.
Everyone eats there breakfast and Delbyn cleans up. Afterwards he stands next to the front door "Are you ready to leave?"
What do you do next?
"I believe we are," said Roland as he gathered the last of his things and shook Delbyn's hand. As the others made their way to the door, he let them know he needed to head to the inn.

Roland nodded; with their abilities, it made sense. "It's beside the bed," he stated. "Rendezvous at the stores, or do you guys want to shop first?"
