To the captain "thank ye Cpt for your protection during those three days. Might I ask a small favor. Shouldn't be to much. We have been followed by drow and attacked in ye fine city. I ask that we be singled or given a heads up if ye's protection spots them so that we might 'address' our would be followers... if it's not too much Cpt?"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"All we can ask Cpt. Thank ye. Hemeth speaks highly of you and I can see why. Ye can expect us to be on our..uh best behavior in ye fine city!" He will salute adbarrian style (with advantage based on military experience?) 14
Leon takes a steps forward and bows slightly before saying
”Captain Blackskull, I would like to respectfully ask you two questions while we have you here. The first question is that there appears that these Grey Ghost have been quite a thorn in the city’s and your side. If we were willing to go back down there and take care of them, is there a reward to be had or any assistance or soldiers you could provide us in this task. The second question is would there be a chance to have a counsel with the King? I fear there is a demonic incursion occurring beneath the city and the king must be made aware from first hand knowledge.”
"Aye, Master Leon be right. The evil brewing beneath ye town is fouler thank the abyss and twice as evil... Ye care for order and law. Then help us in this request so we can rid your city of this demonic influence and make it right!"
Captain Blackskull takes a look at Leon, then Gremryl, then Mikey and finally, Rowland. You can tell that she has a very keen eye and can sense the strength or the fragility of others.
Captain Blackskull - "It would appear to me that you're more than capable of handling whatever vermin you happen to find down there in the Whorlstone tunnels. If, however, you find yourselves overwhelmed and are in need of the finest soldier that I can spare...at the moment...use this. Consider it a most suitable reward." She magically produces a gem of deep black from a personal dimension and tosses it to Leon.
(Leon - Dexterity check please)
Captain Blackskull - "Counsel with the Deepking you ask? Make no trouble while you're in the city of Gracklstugh and when you're prepared to depart, I'll have arranged for an audience to bid you farewell.
Elmo wants to just appear next to the party. He wants to slip in and be seen gnoshing on a pocket meat. I know that there are guards and others about, but I want him to quietly capitalize on how much attention everybody pays to the Captain when she speaks.
Leon, caught a little off guard at the need to catch three small stones does his best. He manages to catch two of them, but misses the third, bobbling it a little before it drops to the ground and shatters into thousands of tiny shards.
Captain Blackskull - "Hmm.." is all she says.
Leon inspects the three gems in his possession. The first looks to be a marble-sized green gem. The other two, smaller in size, appear to be pure diamonds, surely worth quite a fetching price.
Captain Blackskull - "Finish your business here in three days time. I'll have a guard sent here on the after lunch of the third day to escort you to have counsel with the Deepking." She finishes her sentence and signals to her guards that it's time to leave.
She walks past Hemeth, giving a nod, acknowledging his stature and doesn't give the rest of you any further eye contact. It's at this time, while the Captain walks out, the Elmo tries to sneak in. The Captain doesn't give her any notice, although everyone else is fixated on her commanding presence as she walks out.
Once Captain Blackskull has departed Rowland will speak to Hemeth, "Thank you master Hemeth for your hospitality and the services of your interrogator, hopefully his methods were useful, he stated that he'd prefer to speak with us as a group before relinquishing any further information he'd gleaned. May we have an audience with him before departing?"
"She be as cold as ice that one..." gremryl wipes his brow.
"Well then, we have three days before we see the king. Best we make haste then? I say once leon figures out what them fancy stones are for, we head back into those blasted tunnels, find the gray ghosts and deal with them and the bastard kidnapping the children then?"
Hemeth responds to Rowland - “Aye. Come, let us break our nightly fast and hear what Wrexim knows, shall we?” As he beckons you all to accompany him to the great dining hall.

Leon returns to the rest of the group and faces the captain again
Gremryl watches this all with intense interest.

Captain Blackskull - “You’ll have the protection of the Stone Guard, by my honor.” She answers.
"All we can ask Cpt. Thank ye. Hemeth speaks highly of you and I can see why. Ye can expect us to be on our..uh best behavior in ye fine city!" He will salute adbarrian style (with advantage based on military experience?) 14

(Leon - Dexterity check please)
"Ye have our thanks Captain. We shall trouble not ye fine city, nay, we seek to rid it of its evil!"
Leon is surprised by the toss, “for the love of Tymora” as he attempts to catch the gem

Captain Blackskull smiles as Leon's reflexes don't disappoint.
(Leon - Roll a Dexterity check to attempt to catch the stones)
“Oh come on Captain!”

"Come on lad... a reputation ye need to maintain." Gremryl whispers...

(Elmo misses out on this scene, although I'll advise at the earliest that Elmo can join)
