The two make their way to their way to the bar(or the closest thing to look like one) with Beedo proclaiming/asking proudly,"Wat's a giant slayer gotta do to get a drink 'ound 'ere?"
At Beedo's proclamation a huge Half-Orc Longshoreman (about 6 and half feet tall and built like the proverbial brick shithouse) looks down at Beebo with a laugh and says "a gobbo giant slayer! Yeah right!" and then across at his mates "musta been a small one or was it running away?'He thinks for a minute and says "actually what are you doing in here, perhaps we should call the Watch?"

Beedo Ego Check(DC 15): 18.
(So it begins...)
Despite Vark's attempts to get Beedo's attention, Beedo waves him off without really away from sizing up the Half-Orc. "Whoawhoawhoawhoawhoa, WHOA! Can ya believe 'is guy?" He looks to the half-Orc's friends, then back to the big guy. "I gotta be'er ques'ion fer ya! Ya will'n 'o pu' yer money w'ere ya kiss'a iz?" He stands up in his seat to challenge, and just get that much more in the Half-Orc's face. Albeit, not by much. "Bet ya five dragons ya could'n bea' me brovah 'ere in an arm wrestle'n match. See'n me scrap'n would'na be a fair one fer ya o'erwise 'n all."
Vark stares bug-eyed over the whole event. "In fac', jus' ta swee'n da deal! Me 'nd me brovah 'in, and ya go'uh go 'round say'n yer a big stooped dodo face ontop da gold. On da o'er 'and, if ya come ou' on top, we'ah… Hmn…"He has a quick aside in goblin with Vark until finally the goblin grumbles and produces a tooth from one of the male ettin. "Ya get dis. Giant Tooth. Da reeaaal deal."He proclaims, grinning proudly while Vark starts worriedly looking around for D.O.R.K and the others. If it starts at all to look like the Half-Orc might not take the deal, Beedo was prepared to get the other occupants around in on heckling and peer pressuring the Half-Orc into the match.
"I will take a Rolden room please." He passes the 4 gp to the innkeeper.
"I would also like my meal served in the room, thank you. We have stabled an elephant, please see to its needs. Also, do you know if there is a shrine or temple to Mystra here in Secomber?"
With that done he heads up to his room he thanks the innkeeper and heads for his room. When he enters the room Aslan immediately launches from his place and begins to explore the room.
"Nice eh? Probably a little more than I might spend but I really didn't want to listen to Torunn snore all night."
He shares his meal with the Tressym and then takes a bath. Asian eventually settles down at the foot of the bed. Devin settles in for the night.
"I have heard that a famed alchemist by the name Amelior Amantis, resides in this town. Would you be able to point me in the right direction?" Toruun asks the Innkeeper
The Innkeeper points to the the glowing, floating harp playing above the Common Room and says "see that, Amelior made that!"He looks Toruun up and down noting the old burn scars on his face and hands and the missing eyebrows and says "you'll be right at home at his place which you can't miss! Its about 200 yards away. Go up this street, turn left after 100 yards and then follow the street follow that street for another 100 yards and you'll spot it!"
Specifically one that may deal in maps and measuring tools, or a traveling cartographer. Can you direct us to one, Sir Rumple the Clerk? D.O.R.K. asks.
The Gnome looks up and says "Just Rumple will do. any of the Trading stores in the town can supply you with that sort of equipment."As D.O.R.K. looks around she can see at least two stores such as Rumple describes.
After (hopefully) getting the location of where the party plans to meet up, Meiva begins to walk through the town on her own, hoping to find a temple or shrine to Silvanus.
Also, do you know if there is a shrine or temple to Mystra here in Secomber?" Devin asks
"Not much call for that round here, Amelior Amantis that I was telling your colleague about is the only worshipper of Mystara that I know of round here," the Innkeeper replies.
"Just Rumple, then." D.O.R.K nods and looks about. "I see. Hn. It is not exactly the preferred course, but acceptable nonetheless. You have my thanks, Ma-... Rumple, sir."She looks up to Jaylen to see if she had more to add in. And if not, she leads the way out to the closest store. Even if she caught Beedo's proclamation before, she trusted Vark enough to keep the goblin from getting in to too much trouble.

In the Seven Stringed Harp and other places 1) D.O.R.K. is wondering around the town peering into the various merchant's stores looking for one that is open but in vain. 2)Devin has booked a room and gone upstairs but as he is eating his meal he hears a lot of shouting such as "c;mon Bob you can do it", "go Bob", "don' leta Gobbo show you up" and a lone voice that he recognises as Beedo's saying "c'mon Vark don't let me down!" 3)Toruun has booked a room and then gone off looking for some alchemist. He comes to a large house with a forge attached to one side. Standing next to the front door are two large stone statures of half-orcs in plate armour carrying halberds. (What are you doing?) 4) Meiva is wondering around town looking for a shire/temple to Silvanus but all she can find is the AllFaith's Shrine (Are you going in?). 5)Jaylen is I think in the Inn watching Beedo talk up Vark's skills as an arm wrestler.
If I've got that all right - I'll put up a post in the morning for the arm wrestle and Posts (PMs) for Meiva & Toruun
As Toruun steps up to the door, the half-orc statues lower their halberds to block his way and one says in a deep almost gravelly voice "name, race, purpose for entering?"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Torunn pauses for a moment, and inspects the statue with curiosity. (Investigation: 20) He then says,
"My name is Torunn. I am a dwarven cleric of Gond from the Island of Lantan, Home of Invention! I believe we could have some enlightened conversations."
Outside and then inside Amelior Amantis' Residence
Upon hearing Toruun introduce himself, a voice shouts out from inside "Og, Magog, leave him alone!"As the voice speaks the construct that spoke says in its deep gravelly voice "Permision to enter granted!"Toruun steps through the door and is in the workshop of his dreams. Against the walls are bookshelves stuffed with tomes, strange bits of chemical equipment and other stuff. Standing in one corner with its head bowed over so it can fit is another stone statue of a half-orc. At a worktable in the centre of the room a human with an eyepatch over one eye and a jewler's loupe in the other. He turns as Toruun steps through the door and says "a servant of Gond and from the island of Lantan no less, welcome!"
If Jaylen can surreptitiously pray guidance on Vark, she'll then begin betting on the goblin. If anyone complains or hollers fowl, she'll claim innocence and just watch.
Torunn looks around the room/workshop in wonder, almost forgetting someone was he speaking to him. He eventually replies, "On Lantan I have heard great things about the famed Amelior Amantis. So since I am passing through, I thought I might meet the man himself. I may also be looking for some supplies if you are able and or willing." As he says this last part, he looks around the room for a free space on a table or bench, on which he places the cloth wrapped bundle he carried with him. As he unwraps the bundle, he says, "I have been working on this, whilst on the road you see. The only problem I find myself a little short on black powder and the ingredients that would be required to make more." If Amelior chooses to, he let's the man inspect the nearly finished musket. "Are you able to help me?"

And that's all I have to say about that.

Meiva you can find an All Faiths Shrine and that's about it.
