Leon catches Elmo as a surprised reaction and not knowing what this sky devil is up to. Leon is quickly reminded of his wound. Leon grimaces in pain and Blood begins to fill the wraps around his left arm. Leon painfully lowers Elmo To the ground and speaks while wincing through the pain.
”I never said you weren’t loyal little man. I believe you to be an honest and true person. Thank you for your display of affection but Leon is taken. I knew my insights were right about you from the moment I laid eyes on you. But to each his own. Be careful though. They kill people for your sexual beliefs in some town. As for the crossbow, I would love to come with you tomorrow. I need some new armor as well.”
At the sound of the ruckous Gremryl turns and sees this display.. and grins like proud Father
"Aye! look at the two of ye.. Gay as can be!! Pretty soon leon my boy, ye will be tasting his sweet meats! tasty they be, and slyly procured eh! (he shoots elmo a wink). I'd like to go to, I'd like to see about some armor maybe to match my moradin blessed shield and mace! maybe an upgrade or two!"
To Mikey:
"Might be ye come with us to see the city the master chortle. Perhaps we can find a place to make those toasted breads with melted cheese on them eh?"
To Rowland: "Welcome lad, I am a bit gruff sometimes, but i speak truthfully. Know that me mace shall be at your side should the need arise, and moradins blessing upon ye.. except if ye challenge me in a drinking of ales contest!! buahahaah"
“Sorry if I got some blood on you there Elmo. This wound is an atonement for a mistake I make. Only time will heal this wound. My heal powers are fine although I am tapped out at the moment.”
Rowland responds to Grem, "Aye, you shall have my aid as well. Truth be told it brings a bit of cheer to be in the company of fellow surface dwellers once more. I'd almost forgotten the joy of such pointless banter." He raises another mug of ale. "Here's to my blades finding the enemies throats before you have need to raise forth your mace and may we sit around drinking ale again once this is all over, while little master Elmo gropes himself handfuls of meat."
"Eh thats ok (Elmo leans in to conceal his words from prying ears). That Mikey gives me a bad feeling in me bones mate. Not that the lad seem evil. More that he seems a fool and (elmo pauses trying to find the words) a wee bit two dimensional. He seems the type to get us into more trouble than he's worth. Ye saw how daft he was at the table... and the rest of the night. Grem, Leon and I recently had the displeasure of traveling with a companion who wasn't worth it (Elmo disrespectfully spits into his empty cup). He's not to be traveling with us for more than a day or two is he? I pray to Ishtus not. Anyhow, I wont be offering him delicious pocket meats. Don't want to be encouraging him now."
At this distance, I want to try and SoH a pocket meat into Rowlands pocket. "He was just being polite. He'll thank me later" Elmo thinks to himself as he conducts his SoH.
To Grem: "Sure, bro, I'll travel with you folks. I've got shopping to do and lots of underground to cover in my search, so why not. Most of you all seem like decent dudes."
Our brave adventurers retire for the night and have a restful sleep in their private quarters. In the morning, each of them are awoken at the smell of breakfast prepared and brought to their chambers. After a hearty meal, they're led by their attendant to the central hall where Hemeth is waiting.
Hemeth - "Ahh...taking liberty of the fine hospitality that House Holderhek offers, I see." Looking at each of the adventurers, who no longer reek of unshowered, malnourished wanderers and look rather presentable in fresh undergarments and brightly polished armors. "We have but one day before our true mission begins. I understand some of you wish to meet Ylsa Hendrak and there's been a charge to locate information on the whereabouts of Droki for the Stone Guards. I suggest we visit the Blade Bazaar, which is located not far from here. I've gathered intel that he was last spotted there multiple times, less than a fortnight ago. If any general supplies are required, there are many merchants who would be happy to take your coin in exchange for their goods." As he describes the Blade Bazaar's location, he unfolds a very detailed map of the city and places a finger on the Blade Bazaar's location. "Are there any other locations that you wish to explore while you're here in Gracklstugh? I wonder...it probably won't be long after our mission is complete that you'll be on your way back to the surface. Likely through Blingdenstone if I'm not mistaken." He pauses for a response.
To Hem: "What's the road to Blingdenstone like? What'll it be like when we get there? Anything that you can think of that we'll need in terms of provisions?"
Hemeth starts to reply to Mikey then realizes that Elmo isn’t present.
Hemeth - “Blast...where’s is that shifty rogue at now? I swear, if he’s caught pilfering from House Holderhek, not even I could save his Halfling arse....”
Leon catches Elmo as a surprised reaction and not knowing what this sky devil is up to. Leon is quickly reminded of his wound. Leon grimaces in pain and Blood begins to fill the wraps around his left arm. Leon painfully lowers Elmo To the ground and speaks while wincing through the pain.

to Leon,
"Something wrong mate? ye seem to be in a wee bit of pain? Ye run out of healing magics?"
At the sound of the ruckous Gremryl turns and sees this display.. and grins like proud Father
"Aye! look at the two of ye.. Gay as can be!! Pretty soon leon my boy, ye will be tasting his sweet meats! tasty they be, and slyly procured eh! (he shoots elmo a wink). I'd like to go to, I'd like to see about some armor maybe to match my moradin blessed shield and mace! maybe an upgrade or two!"

“Sorry if I got some blood on you there Elmo. This wound is an atonement for a mistake I make. Only time will heal this wound. My heal powers are fine although I am tapped out at the moment.”
Elmo holds out a delicious cured pocket meat to Leon. “Eat up mate, it will help take ye mind off yer pain.”
“No thanks Elmo. Keep your meats. I need to keep my mind on the pain to make sure it never happens again.”
Rowland responds to Grem, "Aye, you shall have my aid as well. Truth be told it brings a bit of cheer to be in the company of fellow surface dwellers once more. I'd almost forgotten the joy of such pointless banter." He raises another mug of ale. "Here's to my blades finding the enemies throats before you have need to raise forth your mace and may we sit around drinking ale again once this is all over, while little master Elmo gropes himself handfuls of meat."
"Huzzah! Mind you its not just his own meats he makes sweet!! I tell ye, hes made sweet of many a person's meats. A secret recipe I tell ye!!"
Elmo holds out a pocket meat and offers it to Roland.
“Fancy a meat mate? Forgot to offer ye”
Rowland smiles, "No thanks friend, save them for Mikey, he seems one who'd enjoy a taste meat!"
To Rowland,
"Eh thats ok (Elmo leans in to conceal his words from prying ears). That Mikey gives me a bad feeling in me bones mate. Not that the lad seem evil. More that he seems a fool and (elmo pauses trying to find the words) a wee bit two dimensional. He seems the type to get us into more trouble than he's worth.

At this distance, I want to try and SoH a pocket meat into Rowlands pocket. "He was just being polite. He'll thank me later" Elmo thinks to himself as he conducts his SoH.
SoH: 26
Rowland makes a perception check to catch Elmo in the act.
Per: 12
To Grem: "Sure, bro, I'll travel with you folks. I've got shopping to do and lots of underground to cover in my search, so why not. Most of you all seem like decent dudes."
To Hem: "What's the road to Blingdenstone like? What'll it be like when we get there? Anything that you can think of that we'll need in terms of provisions?"
Elmo - You replied to quickly. My internet sucks and couldn’t get to you. Please delete your post. You’ll see why.
Hemeth starts to reply to Mikey then realizes that Elmo isn’t present.
Hemeth - “Blast...where’s is that shifty rogue at now? I swear, if he’s caught pilfering from House Holderhek, not even I could save his Halfling arse....”
“You said the forges might be a place for me and my lady to visit.”
Leon does an inventory search of his items after the last time he woke up and a roguish person was missing from the party.
“Well if ye recommend the bazaar then let’s be off then if no one else has any other ideas?"
"Hemeth, would there happen to be a fellow named Elhutz in the city? Or perhaps anyone with connections or knowledge of his whereabouts?"
