Merril looked at the lizard man and backed up trying to keep her cool as he got closer and closer until she was put up against the wall looking at him her hand grasping around the wand she kept at her belt "what do you want to talk about" she said keeping a level head and voice 

Kren gives a somber nod and begins a slow sweeping step toward an inn he knows of. Not the one where he has a tab, but the one he got arrested outside of.

Finally halting his advance about a foot away from Merril, Kouss clicks his teeth a few times, cocks his head slightly, and says in an guttural, raspy voice just above a whisper:

Kouss wonders what this one calls itself... This one carries trouble and secrets as Kouss does, yes?... This one intrigues Kouss... Kouss knows of the end of the world but not from whence it comes!... No other beings seem to even know the end is nigh... This one surely knows, yes?... Kouss needs information and strong allies to stop this great evil before it grows too powerful!... This one can lead Kouss to these things, yes?... Where can Kouss find what Kouss needs?...

The teeth chatter a few more times quietly as Kouss cocks his head the other way. His orange spine sail flips up slightly on the back of his head then lays back down flat as he waits for answers.

Merril felt an odd feeling... this creature was asking her questions and saying things that didn't seem to make sense to her as her eyes narrowed a bit looking at him before she tensed a bit wondering just what it's goals where "really.. an end of the world. If you're looking for a great evil that's grown to powerful I'm pretty sure we all know one" she said casually before realizing that she just implemented her distain for the prism to someone who might be an informent "I mean why do you think the world is gonna end" she said quickly trying to change the subject

"Sea creature?"  Meepo says as the fish-smelling big knelt down towards him.  "Meepo no fish, Meepo dragon..."  Suddenly a massive dragon roar rocks the area as he casts minor illusion  "See..."  Meepo says with a sharp-toothed grin.  "Copper dragon roar..."  He turns his head so you can take in the copper of his own scales.

"Hungry..."  He considers this for a moment.  He had eaten at the inn only a few hours earlier, but could use more food now he supposed.  "Want go inn?  Meepo buy..."

"Splended! I had hoped to purchase a few things first.. I am new around here though so perhaps you could help me mr. Meepo" Phil would say as the few tendrils hanging over his mouth say ever so slightly. "Do you know of anywhere that sells crafting supplies? Or maybe even little bit sturdier armor?" The locathah would add as the red glow from the fish man seemed to reflect off the brass scales. "You know... you are the first kobold I have ever met. That was an impressive roar you know." He would add

Yes! Yes!... The end of the world, elf-like one!... A great evil looms ever closer and Kouss must find it... Does this one have knowledge of this???... A vision came to Kouss long ago of a great and terrible evil rising from the land to consume all!... Kouss has been unable to find this evil for years but Kouss must continue to search for no other being seems aware of their impending doom... This city is Kouss' last hope to find help for Kouss knows not where to go next... It is up to Kouss to save the world...

Kouss' eyes flit up just above Merril's head as if looking at the wall behind her.

What?... Yes yes yes... Kouss is getting to it...

His eyes return to Merril.

Kouss needs help... How does Kouss find help for this?... Are other beings on this quest to destroy the looming evil?... Kouss has traveled the world and not found any beings such as this... Does this one know of any beings who can help?... Does this one know where the evil is or what form it takes?...

"Meepo only in town short time."  Meepo says with a shrug.  "Meepo know inn..."  he thinks of the places he as been around town, but shops and stores are not normally places he goes much, since those things are not lost, just waiting to be gotten.  "Meepo help find store..." He says though and turns to the man he had just seen was so good at keeping his things from getting lost.  "Where shops?" He asks the man with the dangling chain.

Marril looked at him with a strange look and couldn't determine wether this man was simply insane or of this was a strange ruse however she was leaning to the side of insanity. Her hands continued to figit around with the wand that was in her belt as she continue to look at the lizard man with her piercing blue eyes Until she got an idea "well I might. You saw that execution early so how would you think of the prism" she asked 

A small figure clambers down from a rooftop overlooking the crowd into the alley between two buildings as a pair of figures exited the alley at the other end.  The leather suited gnome had studied the crowd, the Prism, the execution, all of it. Why was he here? Why had he been sent? And who were They? He sighed as he climbed.  He didn’t know how he had knew the things he did...but he knew They wanted him to use them. But now he had a few things in mind that They didn’t know about.  All he needed was some extra funds for parts, and he could build the weapons he had been planning.

He pulled his cap down over his eyes, shoved his hands in his pockets, and set out to find a nearby inn and tavern to see if he could pick up work.

Those of you looking for an Inn/Tavern all find your way to the North Dock area of Little Jasper.  This area has a strong military presence to it.  The military isn't like the White Guard, the personal policing for of the Prism. Most military men also hate the way the Prism is running things but are too busy fighting wars past the Everdark Gates or trying to tame the trade routes in the great inner sea.  The tavern that you all find is called "The Clown Fish."  A pub full of sailors, shady looking individuals, and more non traditional humanoid folk than the rest of Little Jasper.  

Before you got to said pub each of you noticed a great blast of fire in the sky shouts and screaming from the stage that you all have each left after the executions.  A red/sub red drafter had attacked the White guard 30 mins after the executions.  The man was beaten and taken away but not before he took out 3 white guard himself.

Sorry guys and girls, adulting is hard I'll try to post more tomorrow.

When you inner "The Clown Fish" you will all see the matron of the bar, some of you know her as Ma, her real name was lost at sea with her dead husband.  She is a jolly chubby owl aarakocra.  She slings ale and quick as she slings insults.  To the left there are some military sailors playing cards.  To your right an arm wrestling match between a Goliath and a Halfling.  The halfling is winning.  In the back on a raised platform a Tortle playing the piano.  There is a line of individuals near the piano about 8 long.  It leads to what you all know is Jasper's Pensive.  A bowl of water you peer in to see any work that the mages and drafters of the Chromera need done that isn't pressing enough to send the White guard.

For those of you in the street gathered together, you have drawn the eye of the patrolling White Guard.   A half-orc guard shouts to your group.  "Break it up, or we'll be breaking you up."  He isn't alone.  The White Guard know better than to travel alone.  There are 4 more with him.  You can see that each of these are red drafters, by the rose tinted glasses they have on to focus the light into more concentrated energy.  Red drafter, as you know, tend to be "hot heads"

Meepo would lead the way towards the inn, thinking he might find some sort of shop on the way to show the fish-man.

Those of you looking for a shop can asertain that the "only" shop worth going to is "Herald's Haven." A shop that boasts to have more magic items than the Prism himself.  A shop so big that it has ran the other magic shops out of town and even have chains in Rath and Green Haven

So there is the list of stuff but we will have to RP the interactions with Harold 

Kouss cares not for the trivial dealings of city-dwelling soft ones... Kouss has just arrived and knows nothing of this Prism... Only rumors heard in towns along the way here... None of this interests Kouss...

His eyes lose focus again as he stares over Marril's shoulder once more.

What?... Oh yes...

Kouss' eyes lock back on to Marril's.

Taverns... Kouss has learned this is where the soft ones gather to tell tales and share information... This is where Kouss must go to find information and allies... Where is a tavern?... Kouss followed this one knowing the scent of an adventurer and knowing the soft one would lead Kouss to a tavern eventually...

He stares at Marril expectantly. His head twitches to one side as he continues to stare at her at an awkward angle.

(OOC: What is our Spellcasting ability for the Luxin drafting? I fell on the line between sub-red and Paryl... as Paryl do I automatically get true seeing or would that just be one of my spells?)

Kren will nod to the line. "If you two are interested in work I might be willing to split a larger profit. Otherwise I'll be in line, if you don't mind, have Ma pour me a Black and Tan." He hands a gold piece to Aiden "Tell her that should get our tab started." He'll then, with a light step that defies his size, make his way to the line to the Pensive.
