The party awakens refreshed (or close to it, in Sen's case?), feeling stronger, ready to take on the day. What's the plan?

Aria makes her way over to Veryes... "Since it'll be sometime until the club is open presumably... what was that other place again? The Crawling Spider that they told us about?"

Sen sits on his bed and watches Crush play with the children.  He finds it strange how calming it is to watch the burly orc as he gently tosses the kids into the air and catches them easily.  There's a hint of a smile on his face.

Veryes checks her notes and nods to Aria "Yes, that's the place. No harm in checking all the leads while we can"

(I'm good with going there, or anywhere else the party decides. I won't be on again until later tonight. If you need to act for me feel free)

Usul, awake is mostly playing with Muad. Still trying to teach him to sit. Animal handling. 7 still no sitting... Lots of love though~

After that he'll say. "Sounds good to me. I just gotta make a stop for some more bones really quick on the way."

Crush would continue to toss around the children and walk through the common room with no less than five kids hanging on him at any time before finally shooing them away and joining his companions. "Need find where places are" Crush would say with a grunt. "ask around" the orc would say rubbing the scruff on his chin and looking out towards the street. 

Sen wanders over at the same time as Crush.  Did you say the Crawling Spider?  Sounds lovely, and not at all like a bad dream I sometimes have.  The market seems a good place to ask around.  And find bones, of course.

"The market seems like a good place to start. And its early enough, there should be plenty of people around that may know something. And of course get some bones for Muad." Aria nods at her companions and motions for the door. 

The party is up and eats the share allotted to them by Mother. Suited up, they leave the Save Point.

Outside the hostel, there are several ravens perched on the building across the street, cawing at random intervals at nothing in particular. 

Today Usul will take Muad out for a walk. He'll be looking for meaty bones to buy, and still a little doggy backpack, just to get him used to wearing something. The bones will go in that backpack.

((@DM - I actually have enough gold to buy a, trained, Mastiff mount~ But obviously I'd like to keep with the narrative of training the dog we found ^^))

Aria hears the ravens and looks up at them.. "We've seen an awful lot of ravens the last day or so... strange."

PERCEPTION: 18 regular old ravens? They hanging out like the others?? lol

These are not regular ravens, or at least they're not behaving like regular ravens. It might seem ridiculous to say out loud, but it's almost like the ravens are trying to act inconspicuous. 

((I love the idea of ravens whistling like cartoons trying to seem natural :P ))

Aria quickly nocks the arrow on her bowstring and fires an arrow at the ledge where the ravens are perched.

Is she trying to miss and just startle the birds?

Yes

Veryes startled by Aria looks to her "What is it? Funny feeling about the ravens? Damn it, are we being watched?"

Wizards can control ravens, even see through their eyes sometimes, adds Sen.  Not usually so many, though.  Is this because of An... because of the person we're looking for, or because of what we did yesterday when those thugs were attacking those boys?  Did we, um, upset someone?  Great, he thinks, I've been in the city two days and the frickin' birds are against me. 

There’s something not right about those ravens, Veryes. Aria continues her gaze on that ledge.

"Well they didn't like my thunder at all but I'm weary to draw attention again. Perhaps we could loose them someplace crowded or find a place with a back door we could slip out?" Veryes says while eying the ravens warily
