"Can you think of anything else out of the ordinary during the past six months? Strangers? Beasts? Other events of significance?" Thromkor asks of the farmers.
"Yah dere be lots more strangers mostly ne'er-do-wells and other rough types that I wouldn't let my daughter go near"the first farmer says. "But Morn you ain't got no daughter!"the second farmer says. "Well if I did I wouldn't ave let these types near her!"the first farmer replies.
"Why try to hide your conversation...." Grin says among other things as the two Druid types get up and eave the bath house muttering something to themselves about the rudeness of city folk obviously not understanding that a private conversation is just that.
"Well if they had ideas to cause trouble they need to practice more! As I got told it, they came into the village all laddie-dah and saying how rural we were. Apparently a couple of the lads at the The Helm at Highsun took exception to the strangers putting on airs and showed 'em what's what. Next day the strangers left town early in the mornin carrying a whole set of new bruises. They was last seen limping up The Long Road." Morn answers.
Clean and Hungry 1) The party members eventually emerge from the bathhouse feeling a bit lighter and hungry. 2) Gotrek's armour has been sponged clean of some of its gore but that is all. 3) There are clean tunics and undergarments all around and as the party is getting dressed, Haeleeya comes in and says "I will arrange for your clean clothes to be sent down to "The Swinging Sword." 4) The party makes its way down The Long Road to the All Faiths Shrine- a walk that is all of 250 yards. 5) As they approach the Shrine they see that it is stone mansion like structure with two large wooden doors that are painted with most of the symbols of the Gods commonly worshiped in this part of Fareun. 6) As the party pushes open the door they see Imdarr and a stunningly attractive women with long red hair and wearing a green gown with gold embroidery setting a table for seven. Imdarr turns to the party and says 'Welcome, first of all let me introduce my colleague for this month Lymurra Auldarhk of the Church of Sune and somebody who has often spent time here at the Shrine and is well known in the Village." Lymurra turns to the party and says "Greetings many of the village have provided food for this feast, we have a turkey from Minny Mhandyvver, fresh bread from Magobbarl Lorren, a ham from Jalessa Ornra, and assorted other produce in thanks for your efforts in rescuing the prisoners. As you know Gorstag was related to Minny but many of the others have relatives living in and near the village."
Thromkor follows the others in, pausing to look over the litany of symbols painted on the doors. Raising an eyebrow and shaking his head a little, he enters the religious building, squaring his shoulders. After listening to Lymurra, he quietly comments to no one in particular, "They sure do like their double letters in this town. There's a surprising lack of apostrophes, though."
“Language is an odd thing, none of them making sense to the others in my experience, more conflicts begin over miss understood communication than need to”

"There's a surprising lack of apostrophes, though" Thromkor remarks.
To Thromkor's comment, Imdarr replies "apparently as my younger accolytes see it, apostrophes are a matter of personal choice! A view which I am not sure worshippers of Oghma would however agree with!"
Feeling clean, Gotrek gets changed and collects his armour. When they enter the shrine, Gotrek will ask around for a tub of water. Before he starts eating, he will sit down and clean his armour until it is spotless, pulling out the required items from his bag when required. Once he is happy that his armour is clean, he will sit down to eat.
Grin will put on his clothes, happy to see that the slashes and holes in his leather jacket and fine clothing underneath had been repaired. Once he is dressed and his thick head of hear has been slicked back, he will make his way to the feast. Walking past the large table of food, the shifter would grab a loaf of bread and rip it in half before loading it with ham and turkey. Once the sandwich was large enough for his liking, he would sit down at the table and dig in.
Tibold looks happy to be wearing clean clothes once again. He cheerily thanks the hosts for the meal and sits down to eat with the others, though he eats only a small amount of food.
Conversation around the Dinner Table 1) As the party sits down around the Dinner table and everybody has full plates, Lymurra turns to the party and says "as Imdarr told you, I am a frequent visitor to Red Larch and over the past six months I have noticed an increasing number of strangers were being seen in the valley. The locals have also told me tales of fogs persisting in the Sumber Hills even in bright sunlight, sudden gusts of hot wind sweeping west out of the hills where breezes have always been cold and sudden bolts of lightning stabbing up from the hills into a clear sky. As I understand bandit activity (including kidnappings, murders, and raids) has also been on the increase."She pauses and then continues "as I understand you have recently returned from the Sumber Hills, perhaps you could share with me, what you found there?"

Tibold sighs slightly, but his good mood is untarnished.
"Well, that's one way to clear up some space," he tells Cole jokingly.
And that's all I have to say about that.
"What did these ne'er-do-wells look like?" Thromkor asks.
Cole shrugs. “Curiousity got the best of me”

"Bit run down, you know what I mean, but they was mostly cityfolk I reckon." Morn says.

Thromkor nods and acts as though the information was helpful. "And what trouble did they cause?"
"Well if they had ideas to cause trouble they need to practice more! As I got told it, they came into the village all laddie-dah and saying how rural we were. Apparently a couple of the lads at the The Helm at Highsun took exception to the strangers putting on airs and showed 'em what's what.

Thromkor smiles. "Serves them right. How long ago was this again?"
"Well I first 'eard 'bout it 2 months back and that sort of news travels fast so it can't 'ave been more than 'alf a ten-day fore that." Morn says.

OOC: OK, Thromkor is done.
Clean and Hungry
1) The party members eventually emerge from the bathhouse feeling a bit lighter and hungry.
2) Gotrek's armour has been sponged clean of some of its gore but that is all.
3) There are clean tunics and undergarments all around and as the party is getting dressed, Haeleeya comes in and says "I will arrange for your clean clothes to be sent down to "The Swinging Sword."
4) The party makes its way down The Long Road to the All Faiths Shrine- a walk that is all of 250 yards.
5) As they approach the Shrine they see that it is stone mansion like structure with two large wooden doors that are painted with most of the symbols of the Gods commonly worshiped in this part of Fareun.
6) As the party pushes open the door they see Imdarr and a stunningly attractive women with long red hair and wearing a green gown with gold embroidery setting a table for seven. Imdarr turns to the party and says 'Welcome, first of all let me introduce my colleague for this month Lymurra Auldarhk of the Church of Sune and somebody who has often spent time here at the Shrine and is well known in the Village."

Thromkor looks embarrassed at being overheard and clears his throat. "Shall we dine? Everything sounds delicious."
