He goes to where the munching sound is. If it isn't the tabaxi, he'll keep walking.

Sister it would be my honor to this, thank you for the chance to return, no, to save such a relic. bow my head to her...

"My brother, Aethel Ferris." Aster replies.

Sanimar remembers Emma's words about a chase between a cat and dog and realized this shadow she sees is from a Tabaxi. From the front she pretends to be a street performer as to attract Sarumir's attention. 

"I am Sanimar the Sensational, and I have some bit of magic to show you!" 

With a flourish of her hand, she launches a fire bolt into the sky and then again until Sarumir turns around an notices her. 

Sarűmir forgets about the munching sound and shuffles through the crowd over toward Sanimar's voice.

"What are you doing? And have you happened to've seen a black tabaxi around here? I followed her so I could get some information, but she gave me the slip."

Sanimar points to the top of the tent nearby "No I have not seen any Tabaxi's nearby"

Sarűmir conceals a sly grin.

"Well, tell me if you see her."

He then runs through the crowd in a roundabout way, so that he's able to lose himself in it, run behind the building, then climb up it to the roof without the tabaxi noticing him.

Twinkleblossum will fly down and hover just under 30 feet above where he last saw Sanimar peeking out from one of the stalls. From here he will try to triangulate where Sarumir is heading and get a better idea of just where he is in the 'Caravan Courts' with all their stalls and tents.

"Sarumir! Any luck with that black haired tabaxi other than bad?"

After her quick-witted quip is issued she notices Sarumir climbing up on top of the tent and draws her daggers one after the other and flies to within 30 feet of the roof.

"Ready when you are!" a fierce and violet light glows in Twinkleblossum's eyes as she tries to surprise whatever will be coming out of the tent.

Stealth: 15 

@Sanimar, Sarűmir, and Twinkeblossum 

((I LOVE THE LUCK QUIP))

The tabaxi does not seem to notice the spectacular show that Sanimar seems to have put on, but a few in the crowd clap.

From inside his caravan, Aldor gives you a pleased nod ('Funny that's the first time he's ever done that in a while,' thinks Eren to themself). Eren also watches the show with a sly smile indeed. The sound of munching is still overhead on the tent. Until it isn't. The shadow below stiffens.

The market is a mess of stalls and carts and caravans (oh my!), but, Sarűmir, you manage to wiggle through it. With your quick reflexes and agility you scale up the wall without notice. Same goes for Twinkleblossum as she remains obscured near the roof between caravans and tents. 

Yet for you, Sanimar, the shadow under your tent is gone. You hear soft footsteps overhead through the mess of caravans, but yet you still don't see her.

Like a magician's trick, the black tabaxi reappears on the totempole in the center of the court. She points at the roof of the building nearby her with a feather in her hand. 

Suddenly Sarűmir is struck with Tasha's Hideous Laughter. ((Do a wisdom save of DC 13 to not be affected hahah))

"You mess with the meow meow, you get the pow pow!" She laughs, doing a little taunting dance. "See now wasn't that funny? I'm joking. I'm joking. What are you thinking you're doing?"

@Aster

Acolyte Fatima nods at your openness. "I know that is a tough thing to share, but know that is not only our burden to share. When you share your pain to others, you open yourself up to healing. I thank you all for your vulnerability in these dark times and let it be know there is still light amongst us. Together as a village, we are stronger than just one alone."

"I too lost someone that dark day. My brother Mike. Though he had strayed from the path of the Flame, his actions do not encompass his whole. I pray that we find all of them. Or if they had been lost to the sickness, we pray that one day we will find a cure to wipe out this virus- this infection upon this earth- to heal once more our city of Drakkenheim and all those who still reside inside."

"Those we lose are never fully gone."

The prayer circle does a deep meditative prayer after that. Everyone inhales. Exhales. Inhales. Then exhales again. Acolyte Fatima blesses everyone with sprinkles of ash. Many in the circle thank her and then leave. She even hugs the one who mentioned Anika Patel. "I pray we find our sister in faith. In good faiths."  She goes up to you and pats on the bench next to her for you to sit down, "I see that you are new in town. ... I am sorry to have heard that your brother is lost as well."

"The garden here has been growing well. We had to elevate it from the ground so that it would not touch the contaminated soil. And the roof above allows us to block out most of the rain. It provides enough vegetables for our small congregate but its not enough for the whole town. The harvest is always just the bare bones."

She sighs then turns back to you, "Is that what you are looking for in Drakkenheim? Are you doing this for your brother? ... May I ask what has happened to him?"

@Lara

"Thank you for your due diligence. This Scepter has been lost since the fall of the city. It is only just of late that we have heard news of its possible whereabouts. I have retrieved the letters in my office, and now I am telling you this not to scare you but because I know that this will motivate you. It is not just the city that I am worried about. But what concerns me the most, I fear, is that the other factions may be onto it as well. I know not of who or when, but those adventurers who handed me over the documents do not seem to have let me be the first to know. That is why it is your job to go find it first."

"Mathias, I fear, must be plotting something, of course, and we must not let her have the upper hand on this." She stands up tall with her staff in hand. The silver lining shines most bright this evening.

"Worry not and have faith in yourself, young one. I know you will do the faith well."

 (Dammit! Was one off!)

Sarűmir falls to the ground in fits of laughter, and in between busting a gut he tries to talk to the tabaxi.

"I need- hahaha! -information out of- HAHAHAhahaha -you! What was that- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA -conversation with that girl- *wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze* -about?"

@Sarűmir

The tabaxi just laughs as soon as you start laughing. It just causes a cacophony of cackling throughout the market. She puts her hand to her mouth to stop, but you can see from the way her eyes squint she is just still laughing. "I'm so- I'm sorry this is just to good. I can't. HAH." She wipes her hand down from her face.

"No- uh what. With Petra? She was hiring us. Whatcha think? Haven't you heard of the Drakkenforce?" 

"You're new in town, right?" She scoffs playfully, "There's always new competition. Well, glad to get to know you first! ... Um. Who are you?"

"My name- AHAHAHAHAHAHA - does not matter! Damn it! Somebody- hahahahahahaha! -get her!"

 Sarűmir is quickly tiring of the laughter, and before long his chuckles are punctuated with growls and snarls.

@Sarűmir

((ahaha oh man just wanted to say that was funny it was literally one off from the save))

The tabaxi frowns at your growls. "Cat got your tongue? Get it? Ha! ... Only I get to make that joke, though." 

"Look, if you're trying to hit up the same job. Why do we wager a friendly competition then? Hmm? Us vs. You guys. Whoever gets it first wins and takes the reward, obviously." She coos, "Ohhhh man, won't that be fun? I've never had it like this before. Usually we meet on the battlefield. Good to meet you here first! Honestly, I find it better this way."

"Fine! But don't say a thing when- ahahahahahaha! -the dog shows up, cat."

He begins trying to stand up.

@Sarűmir

Feigning surprise, the tabaxi, stands up from her perch and looks around, "Huh? Where? Haha get it- were... wolf. Come on man I can smell ya like a mile away!" 

"Anyways why don't you have fun and, um STAY." She casts Hold Person on you, tapping the iron piece on the side of her belt. She then goes on and dashes away. Man she moves so fast. You can't even see her.

((Do another Wisdom save of DC 13 lol))

@Sarűmir

((*eyes emoji* it says you set it for advantage but honestly it's whatever since this is more just roleplay right now and the dice rollers can be weird here))

You are not affected by the spell and are free to move. She dashed somewhere in the village, but then, knowing that she uses magic, she most likely is invisible now somewhere. You can't find her from where you are now at least.

"That milk-loving, plant-shredding..."

Sarűmir continues to call the tabaxi a few choice words, them stands up and slides off the roof. He walks over to the rest of the group.

"Well, looks like we have our work cut out for us for now. Anyone wanting to come with me?"

"Slow down and tell me the whole story and what is this job?" asks Sanimar
