She stays a few feet from you. "It must have been a message from Danu de Tuatha, the moon goddess. She guides us all.  If she wanted the two of us to meet, there must have been a reason. Why are you here at the tournament? The REAL reason."

"The real reason I am here is to help out my town" Dice will stand up and lower his hands... "The town of Rhiannon was recently raided by a horde of terrible creatures. They stole a number of important and valuable items.... When the townspeople tried to track down the raiders, the tracks lead them here..." Dice will lock eyes with her. "I am here to recover those items for the people of Rhiannon."

"Well I don't know anything about any stolen items.  What does all that have to do with the Goddess?"

"In my vision, I saw " Dices eyes will go wide... "A woman, standing in gleaming silver armor and holding a brilliant staff with a large crescent moon shape on the end.  Then I saw a fearsome black dragon, its gaping maw open towards me ready to devour me. Lastly I saw the woman with the staff striking down the dragon with a mighty blow from her holy moon staff..." Then, as if snapping out of a trance he will lock eyes with Brigit... "The symbol on your cloak looked like the staff the lady used to defeat the dragon... I was shown the vision for a reason... after asking for help in recovering those items.... I was.... I was just hoping you could help me." Dice's eyes moving from her to the floor. 

She looks at you for a moment, taking in your story. "Centuries ago the evil dragon Varsullicraxu tormented the land, destroying villages and wreaking havoc.  That is until the Goddess Danu came and smote the dragon with her holy moon staff. Its rumored that the staff still exists, hidden away in the goddess' tomb, but no one knows its location. I've been searching for it for some time. You mentioned the tracks of the raiders led here to Lord Kent's keep.. well I have noticed some tapestries depicting elements from the story of Varsullicraxu in the keep.."

"I am looking for a Statuette of the goddess Diana, a Gem-studded Longsword, Mayor Fellstone's books and journals, a Rune carved amulet, and a Silver Statuette of an Elven Maiden. Those are the items that were stolen that I was sent to recover"

"I haven't seen any of these items around the keep. Why would Lord Kent want them?

"perhaps he doesn't know anything... Perhaps someone else is running these operations out of his castle... I am here to find that out and recover the items...." Dice will look back up and lock eyes with Brigit "Obviously I am not making great progress... and I am struggling to piece together the clues given to me... I did find a room that contained statues and imagery like what was depicted in my vision and like what you described... but i don't know how to get in there... I also managed to get attacked by a pair of statues while snooping around however" dice will rub his jaw 

"Attacked? Hmm.. in my experience people don't usually post animated statues to guard doors, if they don't have something nefarious to hide.  You are right though, there's nothing to say it is Lord Kent himself who was behind your thefts. I have seen other individuals, who are not in the tournament but seem to live in the keep. It could be one of them."

Dice will nod to Brigit "I am sorry to have startled you. After I had my vision I knew I needed to see you immediately.... Please do not let anyone else know of my real purpose for being here"

"Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated, but I do not want to put you in harms way..." Dice will turn and start to leave.

"If I see anything suspicious, I'll let you know. And if you need anything else from me, knock next time."

*** how much time until my next game? ***

**lets see, game ended at 1, you ate food til 2, then snuck in the room to talk a bit, so lets say 3pm now, so still 5 hours til game time. Plenty of time to get into some mischief.** 

Dice will stop by his room really quick to see if any of the other items have been delivered by Ilolas before heading downstairs. he will make his way to the hallway with the slightly nicer doors again (the one before the room with all the weapons and mean armor) before listening at the doors (the ones he did not enter) to see if anyone is behind them.

Perception 13

You don't see any of other items in your room yet. So you make your way downstairs, back to nicer hallway.  Listening at the doors, both are quiet.

Dice will attempt to enter the room that had a lot of noise in it earlier and will attempt to unlock it if it is locked. 27 = thieves tools

**just a sec, in the nice hallway there were 3 doors, all locked and all quiet, one was the hall of armor, the other 2 you never checked out. 

Back in the normal hallway that leads from the courtyard to the stairs that go to your room, there were 2 bigger doors with lots of noise behind them.

were you going to the nice hallway 2 doors or the 2 loud doors?**

whoops, I want to see if the loud room is quiet in the first hall. Sorry. I got mixed up.

loud room still loud
