As Rylia searches for the thief, Arr scans the space for movements, too. Their gaze occasionally lingers on one shelf or another. 

Should Rylia enter Arr’s thoughts:

(OOC - Just to clarify, at this point Rylia is only using the Detect Thoughts to "to detect the presence of thinking creatures you can’t see", as indicated in the spell. She is not using it to read anyone's surface thoughts at this point.)

(OOC: but I guess you don’t need to inform us if that changes. I haven’t read the spell tbh.)

Can paladin see the flying snake outside? Revealing the exit?

 OOC Only Rylia can see through the snake. But you can consider that Rylia told you what´s in the post

"Rylia, can you lead us to the alley where this tunnel exits, or do we need to crawl through there ourselves?" Bryn asks his friend after she returns to her senses.

"It seems the intruder has already left here with whatever they were after, and the rats covered their escape...Let's stock up and be on our way," he suggests to the group.

With things more or less in place, Rust thanks for everyone's help one more time.
"I think that everything is okay now. What's missing I can fix later. I just need to leave this closed until I can solder it again." She says pulling a heavy cabinet to lock the grate that closes the tunnel while realizing that Arr, Rylia, and Coltinar still suspect that there might be someone in the store.
"Don't worry! I think that no one is here. They're cowards. They make these kinds of attacks on our race, but they don't show their faces. The other day they threw poison at the flower shop across the street that also belongs to a warforged. The Council needs to do Something to protect us." she says in a wistful tone.
"But let´s move on! After all, it's not to kill giant rats that you came here. How can I help you? Your friend commented that our store was recommended to him by someone, so I hope I can serve him well" Says giving a kindly smile to Coltinar"

Brother Coltinar thinks for a bit and remembers overhearing ...."Skyrym passes by Paladim and, putting his hand on the warforged shoulder -- he as almost as tall as Arr but much more slender -- , and says:  that's the spirit, always protect family and true friends" then turns and speaks towards everyone, "You can buy these common items at 'Dakaan Good Deals', look for Rust and say you're going on my recommendation."

Brother Coltinar replies, "Beg pardon, it was Skyrym.  I misspoke earlier. I overheard Skyrym chatting with my friend Paladin. We're going on their recommendation."

Bryn offers his list for expeditions to Rust. "Well, we need some trail rations, a few good waterskins, some climbing gear and arrows or bolts. Perhaps a shield or two? And bedrolls would be nice but not necessary." The rogue turns to the rest of the group and asks, "Anything else?" 

“I’ve seen a few things that could be handy in an old forge. Some tools for tinkering, and… and something to unlock closets,” adds Arr.

"Oh! Skyryn! Yes, of course! Mr. Skyrym has been a great friend, both to me and to other warforged brothers. I have good clients who were referred by him and now you join them." says Rust brightly as he grabs a large basket from one of the shelves and Brynn's list.

"We can already separate some things down here and then go up. I think I have something you'll like, says looking at Arr"
She goes to a shelf by the stairs and puts some things in the basket. Then she takes two cases of arrows and a big bag, "come on, let's go upstairs. This place still smells of those horrible rats", she says as he goes up the stairs holding the big basket and with two cases of arrows and the bag strapped to his shoulder.

Upstairs, Rust spreads out some things on a wide table at the back of the shop.
"Here we have our personalized adventures kits with original colors and patterns.
In the basic kits you will find:
- the bedroll
- the blanket
- the mess kit
- the waterskin
- 50' hempen rope
They cost 10gp and I offer one to each of you as a thank you.
Those who are not interested in the kits can choose any other item of that value as a gift."

Over there in the corner, we have arrows and cases or quivers, if you need them, he says, pointing to the cases with arrows of different sizes.
On that shelf in front you can find sacks and backpacks.

What else? What else? Rust taps his wrist rapidly against his head as if to remember, a gesture much like Paladin sometimes does as well.

Rust goes to a counter and in the drawer, takes a kit wrapped in a leather cover.
She brings it to Arr. "See what you think of this Tinker's Tools."

From another drawer she brings a Component Pouch and a double Healer's Kit
"These may be interesting for the healears or those who deal with magics" She says.

Arr inspects the tools offered to him with a polite, “Thanks.” They handle the set carefully, and they skillfully check each of the tools for their state and quality. “We think, it is a fine set of tools, we would really like to own one ourselves one day.”

Bryn examines the complimentary adventuring kits and smiles warmly at the warforged shopkeep. "My thanks, Rust, for this gift. I would like to purchase an additional 20 arrows, and if you happen to have any healing potions, I will take one of those!" Bryn will pull out a gold piece for the arrows, and if they have potions he will pull out a small coin pouch with 50 additional coins.

 Yes, this is one of my favorites! It cost 50gp. If you decide it can be yours for 25gp

 Unfortunately, my potions have finished. But you can have one of these Healer's Kit for only 5gp

“It can be ours?” Arr gawks. “We think… we think we have enough gold but it isn’t really ours. It was given to all of us.” They turn to heir companions asking, “Don’t you think this could be useful?”

"The advenurer kit is what I need, I think," Rylia says, looking over the items and trying to make sure she's not forgetting something. "And it's very kind of you to provide that for us."

"Oh! Some rations too," she adds suddenly, having just remembered. "Although I'm not sure how much to get. Maybe 5 days just to be safe?"  

She then pokes about look at items and thinking a bit.  "What about a couple cosmetics, wig, costume jewelry, some costume clothes?"  She hesitates a moment as she says this last bit and looks at what she is wearing.  The grey blouse and light blue skirt were certainly a bit different from her usual clothes. But not so much that it might be considered a costume. "Yea, maybe some clothes. Something different from what I'd normally wear - a bit drab maybe and more like a craft woman or something?"  She glances to Bryn, "You too! You should find a disguise too of some sort. In case we need to be icognito!" 

(OOC - Basically, looking for Disguise Kit, and perhaps a cheap piece of clothing to go with it.  She really doesn't want to change her hair color, so she's thinking simple wig rather than hair dyes.)  

Bryn laughs and replies to Rylia, "I already have a disguise  - have you never watched my performances?"

Rylia give Bryn a smile. "Of course I've seen your performance! But this is a new disguise. Not for a show, but in case we need to have people not recognize us!"  She shrugs, "Guess if you're just so good that you don't need it then you don't have to get anything." 

Brother Coltinar, "Arr.....We split the money I think evenly between us...300 gp / 6 = 50 gp each....Spend yours as you need for yourself...remember there is another stop for wares at the forge and potion dealer.  If I have left over funds you can share some of mine.  Each of you can if it will make us stronger and I don't need it or can't afford what I could use."

Brother Coltinar whispers to each in turn, "Just let me keep your heavy stuff if you want."

Brother Coltinar says to Rust, "Many thanks....I think I could use one of those double Healers kits to help the party, myself, please."
