The Jarl smiles at Elixisys. "That is excellent news indeed! We must devise a Strategy at once! Come, let us all discuss this over dinner."
As they make their way to the banquet table, the Jarl answers Rosri's questions.
"A Knight Inquisitor, Sir Rosri, seeks and eliminates any threat to the Peace of the Three Peaks, internal or external. As such, Knight Inquisitors are considered to speak in the Jarl's name, and their authority supersedes that of regular City Guards, and small settlement leaders, and Guild mid-managers. An Inquisitor is expected to provide at least weekly reports on any suspect activity in the Land, to the Jarl, or any of his closest Advisers. Basically, what all of you have been doing since you got to this City...that's why you are all so perfect for the job..."
As everyone sits down, and starts eating, Edeleth makes it back to the Granit Palace. He is swiftly announced by a Herald. "Sir Edeleth Treesong, Knight Inquisitor of the Tree Peaks, and Ambassador of the Western Courts!"
The Jarl stands up, and greets him .
"Sir Edeleth, join us! I hear from our Secret Service friend here that you've found a way into Wrathmaw Keep. Is that so? What about this cache of explosives?"
When Roscoe hears that The Knight Inquisitors have been summoned to the Granit Palace, he makes sure to clean himself up the best way he knows how and begins to head in that direction to meet with everyone.
Elixisys looks around at the group. "I assume we're going to take a rest before we go. I've tapped myself on some of my more powerful spells keeping track of things today and I would like to have them back again before we take on such a task."

Zyman is not planning to do much resting. He's felt an increase of his power, ever since the volcano, and he's got a theory about what had happened and why he feels this way. He'll try to meditate and get some soulsearching done, before heading out tomorrow.

At this point, the Jarl's meeting is adjourned, and the characters are free to rest/ start preparing. Commander Seleth Belian tells the group the Airforce will drop them off wherever they need. They cannot carry all 100 Dwarves from the "Dogs", however, as there are only 50 Eagles
Edeleth bids his companions goodnight and goes to his room.
Before resting, he pulls out his last sheet of parchment--he will need to buy more soon--and begins a letter.
Master Talos,
When you sent me out into the world to plant the children of the Naranda tree, I was reluctant to leave the Grove. You said it was a task that only I could accomplish. I think I understand why, now. I was taking root in the grove before my time, thinking I could learn everything that was necessary to take your place right there. In the short time since departing, I have learned and experienced so much that I look back at my old self and wonder how I could possibly have thought I was ready. You sent me out to grow myself as much as to plant the trees.
Now you have approved my appointment as an ambassador to the Dwarven clans, and I can only suppose that is either because the need is great, or you believe there are still lessons I must learn here in the Nâr Barâk Mountains. I have accepted the position, but must insist that it is temporary, just until the crisis is past.
It was once my greatest desire to return to the Sacred Grove, and remain there forever. Now that I have seen a little of the world, it worries me that, once I have taken the position of High Druid, I may never have the opportunity to leave the grove for any significant period of time. There is a great deal of Talaveroth that I have still never experienced, and I now hope to see as much as it possible before taking my permanent position as your replacement. I hope, more than ever, for your long life and continued service as High Druid.
Your devoted Servant,
Edeleth Treesong
Sealing the parchment with his celestial hyena signet, he flags down a servant in the hall and gives him two gold coins to have the letter posted, and one gold piece tip. Then he returns to his bed and enters his trance for the next four hours.

Elixisys heads straight to bed after the group departs. As he sleeps he sends Chernobog off across the city with instructions to look for anything he thinks might be movement of the gingerbread man or his associates. In the morning he opens the door and spends the time he has left pouring over the beat up leather spellbook he carries, making sure the spells he feels are necessary for their journey are fresh in his mind.

Roscoe had gone to bed rather early the night before hoping to be well rested for the next days adventures. When he woke to find a note, he quickly opened it before getting ready. This only made his morning routine more hastened as he quickly went about his preparations and headed to meet Rosri.
Elixisys nods as he picks up the note. He snaps his fingers twice, bringing Chernobog back to his arm and then walks over to Rosri's door. Once he's there he has Chernobog give the door a few quick pecks.
