City of Cresthall

"Ah, I'm sorry for getting ahead of myself. Master Opsola is currently meeting with mentor Dullivan. He should be done in a short while, they're just waiting for a package to arrive."

Hatt looks at Karra:  This is your delivery, right?

”It’s not delivery. It’s DiGiorno.” Crispy mumbles, bored, and thinking of pizza. 

Bennett nods toward the gentlman(dragon?), "Very well. We will wait outside!" He bows slightly and gives a charming smile.

He looks to Crispy, "What is DiGiorno?"

Crispy leans against one of the walls of the building while they wait. 

“It’s a brand of boot that I use when kicking men in the balls. Wanna slice?” 

(Sorry for not posting in earlier. Was stuck with migraines over the weekend.)

Karra steps forward at this point, clears his throat, and speaks in a perfectly local accent and dialect. (DM: See spoiler)

"My greetings to you, I have come as the courier from the local guild in order to bring the article in question." Karra says, producing the box with the item inside. "If you would please direct me to Lord Opsola, these people here were my retinue and protection to bring this valuable item across town."

The dragonborn bows fully, "Of course sir, come with me, please. Master Opsola will want to see the work first hand and then we shall hand you your due payment." He leads you up the stairs and after a long flight of stairs (About 20 minutes) he opens a door at the top. Inside you see Opsola talking with a human man in a robe over a table with papers scattered about. The man is very old, long white hair and beard, he seems a bit agitated although Opsola looks indifferent as he points out things on the papers. The apprentice bows his head, "Master Opsola, Mentor Dullivan, the guild has arrived with your package you have asked for." Opsola looks over and raises a scaly brow, "Ah...Either this is a coincidence or you all wanted to see me. Whichever it is, thank you for delivering my package."

Karra has a stern look on his face, but doesn't comment on anything. He steps forward with the parcel, holding it out for Opsola to take. "The Guild sends their regards, Mr. Opsola." He comments.

Hatt studies 'Mentor Dullivan' carefully, looking for any signs of the reason for his agitation, or anything else useful about him:  Insight 14.  He also looks carefully around the room, at the papers on the desk, at the furniture and the walls, looking for anything of interest, while wearing the expression of a curious and harmless child on his face.  Perception:  11

Crispy looks around quietly.

Insight: 9

Investigation: 21

Perception: 16

Ashley's thoughts are a little preoccupied. She falls back on her passive abilities to perceive and investigate as she wonders what's in the box, and about other things that may or may not be related to Crispy but not about the bikini at this moment. 

Bennett bows slightly to the gentlemen(dragon?), "I apologize if we've intruded on some sort of business meeting, sirs. I told my companions about what we spoke about, Opsola, they'd like to speak with you about the task you've given us about speaking to some certain people."

Perception: 6

Insight: 12 (is this dude a cool cat?)

Crispy notices that Ashley appears a bit preoccupied and flashes her a saucy wink, a look she knows all too well. She stands a bit closer to her. One, because she's gorgeous, and two, to let her know she's here for the long haul.

Opsola takes the parcel and opens it. He takes a ring out and examines it in the light. He then passes it to Dullivan, "As you can see Dullivan, I am serious about my order. We will proceed with the enchantment and yes, I'll be using my own gold for the funding not the academy's." Dullivan gives a slight dirty look to Opsola before taking the other item, another ring, from him. "Alright then, Opsola, you'll have them done in a few hours. You can wait that long since you've wasted my time calling me up here. But I swear, if this is something that'll harm our reputation, I'll tell the Queen about it." Opsola just waves Dullivan off as he goes past you all, "Thank you Mentor Dullivan, I'll send an apprentice to pick them up once you are done." Opsola doesn't react even as Dullivan slams the door on his way out. He sits down at his desk as he fixes the papers there. "Now then, first I'd like to thank the Silver Eye for the quick work and delivery. Payment shall be given downstairs once this meeting is over. Secondly, what would you like to ask Lord Niyra or Sir Connor. I know of Lord Niyra to some extent, as I've had to talk and converse with the man before. And all I know about Sir Connor is that he's one of my brother's many guardsmen. I asked for his scheduled posting from him but that is about all I know." 

The room is filled with bookcases and each one filled with a different assortment of books. There's history, magic, magic application, etc. each one so thick you could probably use it as a weapon. The papers on the table are filled with runes and incantations. Glyphs and lists of ingredients or instructions are on each page. Some look familiar to each other while others don't. And even as you all observe the angry man storm out, he showed much indifference to you all but much anger towards Opsola. He hasn't even acknowledged you all as he passed by, just swearing under his breath. 

Karra would like to try and read anything extra from the exchange between Opsola and Dullivan.

Insight: 5

Gasp finds a place to sit down and does his best to ignore Opsola. Instead, he just looks over his new shiny shield. He wont acknowledge the books or other lovely things in the room. He refuses to be impressed!

As previously indicated, Crispy couldn’t care less about this whole exchange, and instead daydreams about all the naughty things she could show Ashley once they wrap this up. She could be seen staring off in the distance with a goofy smile on her face.

Hatt avoids looking at Opsola, uncertain that he would be able to keep his suspicion and dislike from showing on his face.  Instead he hangs back, admiring Gasp's new shield, and staying silent.

@Karra

"...Mr.Bennett, either I answered your allies' questions already or they simply don't wish to talk to me...Unless it is because of your gnome friend being tasked to deliver the rings to me, they decided to come along for protection. I am sorry to have them force it upon you, I'll be sure to have attendants sent to the guild to provide more laborers for them. And since it appears that your group is...hesitant to talk with me about the tasks I have asked of you, then I'll have to ask you all to leave if there is nothing else." Opsola says as he takes a fresh paper out and starts to write a letter.

Bennett nods, "Please just call me Bennett. I figured it'd be best for them to hear our task from the taskgiver's mouth. I apologize for any inconvenience we may have caused, have a nice day, Opsola."

If everyone leaves Bennett on the way out will say, "Oh! By the way, we are staying at *insert tavern we were at name here*, if you have need of us you can find us there."

((Honestly figured there would be more dialogue LOL! Sorry if I drug everyone's characters into doing something they didn't want to do, that wasn't my intention.))
