You guys head out northward. It a mild morning with a few scattered clouds. There is still a decent amount of traffic on the road and you see some of the same folks from the inn also heading north. Most are on foot but occasional some folks pass by on horses.
While you're riding Kleesal says "KItty likes her new name. She thinks it's funny because there's a cat at the stables that's always leaving mice in her stall"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"So before being a stable hand... did you grow up in the middle of a forest? or umm... are your parents druids by chance? or uhhh have you ever had strange things happen around you that you cannot explain?" The kobold would say very casually still looking the boy over while riding next to him atop of Herbert. (insight again 2)
"So the boy can speak with animals....very interesting....this may come in handy." J'Anna says. "Well Rend I think you may have found a way to keep delivering your letters to Tessa!"
(So I didn't tell anyone that I realized that he could talk to animals, I didn't want to freak the kid out in case he didn't know if that makes sense lol, I was however trying to find out more about his background to see if I could figure out how he can do it.)
Hehe, the insight doesn't help but he's says "Well, I don't know. My Ma's not a druid but I never knew my Da. Mom never talks about him and tells me to mind my business if I ask anything and I grew up in Tessaria. I've always loved animals and I wasn't lying when I said I could understand them when they asked for ear scratches. Miss Felicity said to never lie so I won't ever again! I have had some weird stuff happen... promise you won't laugh... the stable boys laughed at me when I tried to tell them. Sometimes if I think on it real hard I can make leaves dance around, like a puff of wind will just come up and blow them in swirly patterns."
OOC: sorry that was my bad then, for future we should use spoilers so we avoid meta-gaming I only read the ones that concern me. Although in my defense the questions you were asking the boy would definitely have raised my interest.
OOC: That is totally fine, Rend isn't being quiet at all.. .he is just having a conversation. Rend just never announced that he realizes that the kid can actually talk to animals. my character made a check to determine if the kid was actually talking to animals and then once he determined that he really was, he started asking him actual questions about his background.
Rend would nod towards the boy and give him a smile. "Ya know kid... I think you might you might just have some druid powers...." The kobold would say as he looks form the boy to his companions. "Talking to animals and druidcraft like you are describing... making small things happen like that.... congratulations, you're a druid" He would say with a smile.
He looks at you kind of confused "What? No, are you having fun with me? Don't you have to study for stuff like that? I don't even know my letters?" Then he starts to smile "Do you think I can do other things then, what kinda stuff can Druids do?"
"Oh, his name is really hard to say. It's Hjarlbjorg.But don't tell him it's hard to say or a funny name or anything like that. He's a very proud fellow" He says while patting the horses neck.
"I guess I can tell you now and you'll believe me but even though I stole him from the stables he wanted to go with me! He told me they were making him do awful things at the stable." His cheeks turn bright red "You know like adult things with the big lady horses. Blech! He thinks those big horses are UGLY"
"You know, I fought a druid in the Arena once. She was a pretty tough opponent, what with the constant stream of mushrooms assailing me. Do you know how hard it is to hit your opponent when they summon thousands of fungi to crawl into your armor? It's not like it hurt much but it was very itchy, not to mention disgusting. Oh and I don't care what you've heard, but humanoids are not at the top of the food chain. Wanna know what eats you when you're dead? Mushrooms! Anyway, I'm getting off track," Felicity says with a shudder.
"That druid was a complete pain until she transformed into a large tiger. Once I saw that, I was not about to let them beat me at my own game. They might have been more in tune with the disgusting parts of nature, but I was more in tune with being a feline. No more than ten minutes later I was in audience with Tessa and I just let her have it for making me fight that guy. Moral of the story Klee, no mushrooms if you're a druid."
ooc: Don't you mean Morel of the story, bud dump bump.. hehe, sorry
"Are you saying I can turn into a tiger? Wow, that would be sooooo coooool" How do I do that?"
As you're all talking you hear a familiar voice from behind you calling out "Hail Champions!" You see 2 men riding up to you on somewhat decrepit looking horses. You recognize them from the Inn last night. They are 2 of the men who first bought Felicity and J'Anna a round. "Ho! It's good to see you on the road. Seems we're headed the same way. Boy that was some fun times last night eh? How far you all headed?"
"By let her have it, I hope you mean you thanked her for the opportunity to fight in the colloseum right?" The Kobold says lifting his brow towards the shifter, not that she could see it because he would have his dread helmet on to help with the sunlight sensitivity. "I cannot imagine ever raising my voice to someone that has done so much for me..." Rend would say looking down to his hand again before twirling the ring on his finger, his black cloak fluttering behind him as they ride down the road.
A moment later Rend would look back towards the boy. "Druids can be incredibly powerful, J'Anna is right... I fought one that summoned a giant eagle that picked me up off the ground and tried to drop me from high above the arena with guy tossed magic rocks at me that hurt quite a bit!" Rend would say with a grin.
"Hey buddies, we arn't supposed to talk a whole lot about where we are going and stuff... top secret important mission... you know how it is" The kobold would say turning his head and looking at the men with his red glowing eyes from under the dread helmet. "where are the two of you headed? I hope you are not hungover this morning from all the fun we had yesterday..." Rend would say with a grin.

Alrighty then.
You guys head out northward. It a mild morning with a few scattered clouds. There is still a decent amount of traffic on the road and you see some of the same folks from the inn also heading north. Most are on foot but occasional some folks pass by on horses.

Rend will look at the boy and try to determine if the kid can actually talk with the animals or just has an overactive imagination. (insight? 4)
You realize that without him even knowing it he is indeed casting Speak With Animals

OOC: That was actually my mistake. I should have message you the info so you had the choice. I'll be more ware of that in the future.

(Over their long rest, Felicity reviewed her prepared spells and swapped out Detect Magic for Bane.)
"So Klee, what's the name of your horse?" she asks.
He looks at you kind of confused "What? No, are you having fun with me? Don't you have to study for stuff like that? I don't even know my letters?" Then he starts to smile "Do you think I can do other things then, what kinda stuff can Druids do?"

J'Anna weary of anyone outside her companions at this point uses her Divine Sense......
