He comes to and slides away from you all. "What are you doing grabbing people like that?" The anger is on his face and his eyes dart to the left and right at you all. "What do yyou want? I have to fine Elizabeth. Before something bad happens to her. So speak quickly and let me go." He moves to stand and leans over a trash can throwing up. "Oh god feel like i got hit with a war hammer."

When the boy speaks of having to find Elizabeth, Durmatl's eyes narrow in suspicion and surprise, clearly taken aback by the boy's intentions and wondering if they are true.

From what you can see he is honest and wipes a tear away from his eyes and sighs. "I think that she was taken by lord Walter Grumish. He is a noble that owns land and farms around here. HE had his eye on Liz and was quite upset he couldn't persuade me to leave her. Offered me a monthly cut of his profits to do it." He shakes his head, "She liked me for what i was doing in my free time and she was happy i was going to become a guard like my dad."

Zydalia decides to believe him. "Oh, petal," she says, putting her hand on his shoulder. "He sounds like a rotter." She looks to her companions.
"You know, you might have more luck getting answers out of Lord Grumish with us in tow," she says, gesturing to the others, to the gnome, the lizardfolk person, the dragon born. "Don't you think?"
I hope we can keep going with this, I want to find out the secrets of the black rose!
Also wanted to let you guys know I've changed my username from DrustriannaMithdetaryl to this one - I appreciate me changing my avatar yesterday also aids in the potential for this to be confusing, so apologies!
(so sorry guys i was out of town. I am going back to work on monday so i will try to post before work and at least once after work starting monday. Depends on how tired i am after work and if i work a double)
With the decent history scores you know lord grumish is a major player in the land around this area. acting as a lord to many of the farms and getting money from each to furnish his lavish lifestyle. You also know he has a penchant for the finer things and that Elizabeth may have been picked up on his radar with how beautiful she is. You also know the largest house in town belongs to him.
"If i show you where he lives can i go and search and you do what you want. I may not be able to control my anger around him."
Durmatl loosens his arms, as if already preparing for a scuffle. "We'll come along, boy." he says softly, making no indication of having overheard his conversation in the forest outside of town earlier.
He leads you through the town. You notice that a melancholy feeling has taken over. Vendors are closing up the street shops the fair is over for intents and purposes. As you go to the richer part of town you notice the house you are heading for. ITs large and victorian in architecture. With pillars of white etched with green vines. The door has a brass knocker held by a lion. THe captains son stops. "This is it. I am going to see if liz maybe got cold feet at our secret meeting place but i doubt it. Feel free to not go easy on the rich *******." He walks off leaving you to the two story home to explore.
As soon as the boy is out of earshot, Durmatl huddles close to the others. "Want me to go follow?"he whispers, casting furtive glances at the path the boy is taking so he doesn't lose track.

"Me either," Zydalia comments. "But we owe it to Elizabeth to try. Come on. No sense waiting around here any longer."

Zanryn, who also has a secret penchant for the finer things, follows Zydalia.

Zanryn is dubious. “Could be a plan. But I don’t think he’s the one responsible and I doubt we’d find much at their secret tryst spot”.
