Squim seems shocked by the revelations he is hearing "There must be some sort of *squeak* sort of mistake. The Blessed has always been rewarding and seemed like a *squeak*. Unfortunately, the only way we know how to get out of the sewer is by means of rat" Squim nods to the rat behind him on the pile of rubble. "I have never tried to find another way out of the sewer. If you would like, I can send a messenger into the city above to find the Blessed and have her come and here to clear this mess up."
Percy chats with guard and investigates the room, but is unable to find anything of use.
“ya mean tha blessed resides here in tha city...?”
gorlok idly twirls a braid as he rolls through this new information
”...an they knows how ta find her.” he mutters to graxxy under his breath.
redirecting his attention back to the rat king
”Honorable Squim, this es great news! wehd all love to speak wit tha blessed an clear up this matter...,but unfortunately time es against us as tha baron is expectin us soon fer important business.
gorlok dramatically rubs his head pretending to think of a solution.
”aye thats the answer! why don ya send keir ta guide us to tha city entrance, where he can scurry along to our friend the sewer master who will give kier a key an let us out. then kier can show us how ta find tha blessed within tha city after we help tha baron....i know tha baron would beh so pleased wit yer cooperation tha hed giv ya a whole bag o shinies.”
gorlok digs deep within his beard revealing a gold coin and flipps it to squim.
Squim says "Extra shiny! Squim will help. KEAR! You will help these outsiders find the sewer master they speak of. It is already getting into the night, so if they chose to stay overnight in our kingdom, have them sleep in the relaxing water chambers. I will deal with your punishment when you return."
The group concludes their business with Squim and depart to the sewer entrance from where they came. As they get to the entrance they notice that it is already dark outside. Kear shapeshifts into a rat and squeezes himself out the bars.
When the group arrives back at the entrance Percy will begin using
The Right Tool for the Job
With tinker’s tools in hand, you can magically create one set of artisan’s tools in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you. This creation requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, which can coincide with a short or long rest. Though the product of magic, the tools are nonmagical, and they vanish when you use this feature again.
Percy attempts to unlock the door using his thieves tools. He clicks around and is about to give up until he hears a *click*. The lock is now unlocked.
"Well now. I was worried there for a moment. Looks like this one isnt so bad. Lets go confront a sewer master I think. Also, the amulet squim was wearing gifted to him by the "blessed" was set with a gem from the underdark. Wasn"t the orc cheiftain sick with something from the underdark as well?Maybe this blessed has been up to more trouble than we thought." Percy puts away his tools.
Ulala stares Percy down with a mixed expression of annoyance and admiration. She licks her lips suggestively upon hearing about the evidence of the underdark.
"I suppose the two are not necessarily related, and we should probably find the perpetrator first." Percy stows his tools back into his bag. Thank you for your aid by the way Kear.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kear says "Kear does not really know exactly where to find the Blessed but he knows the area that she is in."
The group prepares to leave the sewer and heads out into the night outside the sewer passage..

As the group regroups outside they continue to talk with Kear when he suddenly freezes. He says "Behind us. Kear hears it!" Kear runs to the other side of the group and Graxxy turns to reveal a large, bipedal monstrosity. The creature stands about 9 feet tall, with a head like a vulture, a neck of crested feathers, and the body of a beetle, whose mottled gray, chitinous exoskeleton looks thick and dense and covered with sharp studs. Instead of hands, paws, or claws, its front limbs ended in 12-inch-long razor-sharp, blade-like gray metallic hooks, surrounded by red feathers
The beast lets out a screech and begins to charge!

Percy grimaces at the thought. " I think I will be getting some of my own tools ready just in case."
gorlok takes a hand and places it on kears shoulder as to say ‘dont worry, we got you’
Graxx nods waiting to see where this path leads.
The group concludes their business with Squim and depart to the sewer entrance from where they came. As they get to the entrance they notice that it is already dark outside. Kear shapeshifts into a rat and squeezes himself out the bars.
gorlok yells to kear
”wait before ya go! lehts try somttin first.”
gorlok turns ta percy
”do ya work lad, lehts see wut ya got.”
Graxxy pipes up as well.
"Yes, Kear and before you go will the Sewer master know who you are? As you seem to know of him." says Graxxy.

The group asks Kear to wait while Percy finished his tools. He is now ready to try and pick the lock.
