City of Cresthall

Crispy looks at her and winks. "I'll do whatever you wanna do, baby." She shoves more food into her mouth. "Oh my Hells, this food is so good." As she chewed her heart swelled to sizes uncommon that she ever knew. So, this was true, unbridled love. Crispy couldn't stop starting at Ashley. As they ate she wanted to be anywhere but there. The thought that Ashley put into all of this overwhelmed her, and she nearly choked on her food in an attempt to try and control her pounding heart.

Bennett speaks before chowing down, "I am all for taking the rings and leaving. Only one way to find out if they work, after all; although, maybe if we help Opsola with his friend's curse we can figure out a way to lift it off of Gasp and I. I am down for either plan, up to you guys." He starts chowing down on food.

Crispy stopped chewing for a second. Swallowed. She looked around the table at each of the other people sitting down, starting with Ashley. "Thank you all for being here. And.." she tried to find the right word, and got a bit quiet. "..dealing with me. This has all been such a surprise, I can barely process it. I'm glad you all witnessed it." She turned and looked at Ashley again, smiled, didn't look away for a long time.

(Time for it, Bennett and Gasp, Wisdom Save, DC 20, Gasp has advantage due to his equipment.)

Wisdom Save: 19

((Shit.))

Oh Hells here we go.

Is there any way Ashley can sense this coming and give bennett some guidance ?

To asnwer Bennett. Thats what i was thinking too.

To Crispy, Ashley smiles back and sits close. I dont know what the future holds for us, but i wanted to make sure we would experience it together. 

Crispy's smile faded just a micro. "Even the bad? I don't know WHAT I would do if anything happened to y-"

That's when Bennett failed his save. Again.

(There's no warning for it.)

2 to Bennett

(Rolling for Gasp, 23 )

 1 to Gasp

Another stinging headaches rings in Bennett's and Gasp's head. Quite similar to the first occurance although a bit stronger.

Hatt rushes up to Bennett and inspects him, and then does the same for Gasp.  However, both still seem to be conscious and not too badly harmed.   They also don't seem entirely surprised by it;  Has this happened before?  This is curse, I imagine - it will happen every day unless you are near her?  And on the ship, you were near enough that it didn't kick in?

Hatt thinks about it for a moment, and then says  One more thing I'd like to try.  I doubt it will be so easy as this, but I would feel foolish if I didn't try it.  Hatt casts Remove Curse on Bennett, and steps back.  Does that feel any different?

Karra watches from the far end of the table. "Hmm..." He ponders to himself. He may not be a spellcaster, but he might know something about this (you never know)

Arcana: 5

Gasp grips his head as the ringing returns. "KAW KAW!"

@Bennett

@Karra

"Hmm, maybe time heal this wound." Karra suggests. "Curse thing apparently nearly kill the other day, but less so today. Maybe wait out or find a way to Dispel Magic with another spell, yes?"

Tried it.  Didn't work, says Hatt glumly.  I think he's okay, probably just has a headache.  He moves over to inspect Gasp:  How are you feeling?  Fine, not fine, in between?

So, Ashley continues, This task for Opsala; where do we start?

Bennett winces in pain and glances at Gasp. "We need to get those rings before we do anything. These headaches are getting worse and worse." He answers Ashley, "Lord Niyra, if I remember correctly is a nobleman, while Sir Connor is a guardsmen employed by Opsola's brother. I, personally, think the guard would be a good first start, if you guys would like to pursue the task that he gave us."

"Ashley and I can deal with the guardsman, and Karra and Hatt can talk with Lord Niyra." Crispy suggested. "Or we can all go together. Either way. But I suggest we do this right away - after our celebration breakfast, of course - so we can go home and live to tell this tale."

Sounds like a plan..uh, bear...Ashley tried her hand at a cute pet name for Crispy and is wholly unsure of how to actually do it.
