This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Throm decides that chasing Dory is not productive. He's trapped here as much as any of us. He decides to examine the tub and it's contents, figuring Dory will be returning, by necessity, at some point.
Bork punches a wall in frustration. A grunt of displeasure, but otherwise, says nothing. He joins Throm by the bathtub, who is examining both the tub and its contents.
After a minute of staring, he dips his finger into the liquid ceramic-coloured contents.

This is my DnDBeyond Account. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Lia loses track of Mr Dory in the panic and sighs in frustration. She takes a seat at the bar next to Mike and watches him drinking, bemused. She asks for a water.
As Hatch tries to calm the panicked mob, Lok's booming voice jolts every head to attention. Obediently the majority return to their seats, cowed by the authority of brawn, and allowing Hatch more easily to reassure the crowd, although there are still pockets of muttering.
As far as Throm can tell, the tub contains nothing but water. Bork dips his finger in the liquid, suffers no unexpected effects, and upon sniffing his finger detects the faint aroma of scented salts. It would appear that Dory's bath consists of little more than soothing medicinal compounds, and nothing arcane.
Lia and Mike search in vain for Dory, almost wondering whether he managed somehow to escape. Finally they retire to the bar and order their drinks, but Lia notices something is different. It takes her a moment to put her finger on it, but then she realizes that the usually talkative bartender is uncharacteristically quiet. Willagee serves Lia and Mike the drinks with a stony gaze, speaking no words, and emitting a strong odor...

“Ha! This is quite a story. It’s easy, the riddle at least. There are 5 bedrooms, numbered 1-5. Each person in the matching room needs to do the specific action that the witch said to do. Don’t know how you haven’t gotten that yet.” The person stands up, revealing that it is a half-elf with long red hair and clothes in black. He has a long brimmed black hat and spurred shoes, making him look like a gangster crossed with a cowboy. “My name, as far as you’re concerned, is Lone Wolf, or if you will, just Wolf.”
With the mob now mostly calm, Hatch wonders over to the bar and orders a water. He had enough booze earlier to swear off the stuff for now. While waiting for his water he asks Willagee about Mr. Dory.
"He's been a regular at your bar for sometime now, and has been keeping a room here, and no one knows this place like you. Can you think of any place he,may have gone to hide? We mean him no harm, not that I think we can cause him any. The others just panicked when he cast that spell. But I still think, or at least I hope, we can still get something from him if we just stay calm and civil," he explains to the barker, hoping for an answer.
Assuming Wolf is right, then...One dies (the unkillable Mr. Dory), Two cries (Althoris), Three lies (Carnation), Four buys (Lok) and Five flies (Delmon)
“Hmmm. This sounds like magic. I don’t like magic. I deal with it as little as possible. I’d rather use talent or hard work to do something, not cheat with magic. I have no idea how to kill him.” Wolf says to the guy he has been talking to. As Mr Dory is described, Wolf does a history and arcana check to see if he knows anything like the things Dory has.
To Mike the bartender replies blandly: My name is Willagee, and yes, I've had better evenings. Turning to Hatch, the bartender answers curtly: Forget about him! You cannot save him and you cannot save yourselves! Lia continues to examine Willagee suspiciously, noting that he is usually much more jovial even in difficult times, and never fails to call his patrons 'sir' or 'ma'am'.
Wolf's fresh perspective on the topic might be just what the group needs, and he shares what he knows of such matters: Bestowing true immortality is beyond even the most powerful witch, but a curse can prevent a body from dying even as it continues to decay. Even dismemberment or decapitation are no guarantee of death if the curse is strong enough, as the basic substance of the body continues to endure. But destroy the substance of the body somehow, such as by acid or fire, and death cannot be stayed.
Lok tips the water out of the tub, flooding the master bedroom. Scented water washes out the door and down the corridor as far as the common room, including spilling under the doors of the other rooms. As as the bath water washes into the room, and Wolf's explanation develops, the bartender becomes increasingly agitated, and the glass he is wiping shatters in his clenching grip.
(NOTE: As I've said, this is all just casual fun, and I'm pretty loose with the game mechanics here. But if you are going to bother to post a roll, then make it an actual roll using the in-line dice roller. Don't just post a number in bold color.)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Now that there’s no retreat to this bath, Throm says softly,
“I think I know where he’ll go.”
He makes his way back through the main room. He passes at some distance from the bar, not paying much attention to Willagee. He retraces his steps to the kitchen because he believes he remembers he saw a wash tub for dishes when he cleaned up earlier. He figures that if Dory needs to be submerged, that might be his next option. Upon entry he investigates the kitchen for anything that seems inconsistent with his first visit here.
As everything is going on Mike the half-elf rogue tries to find this Mr. Dory character.

Well, with everything that is going on I need a drink. Mike then walks over to the bar and decides to order 8 drinks and downs them one after another.

Hey- Mike calls to the bartender, What be yer name, and how are you doing during this... not so quiet evening?

I explain everything that has happened in a very pessimist way.

Watching everyone sit back down as the room finally calms down, Lok jumps off the table and walks back to Mr Dory's room.
"No more relaxation for him." the barbarian mutters to himself
Lok goes over to the bathtub and grips the edges of it with both hands, Yanking forward to tip it over and spill all of the water out of it.
“Ha! This is quite a story. It’s easy, the riddle at least. There are 5 bedrooms, numbered 1-5. Each person in the matching room needs to do the specific action that the witch said to do.

Delmon orders a drink to drown his sorrows with and speaks to Wolf "The problem with that is Mr. Dory was in room one and he can't die."

So according to Memer the person in room one has to die. That is Mr. Dory who cannot die as far as we know.

Assuming Wolf is right, then...One dies (the unkillable Mr. Dory), Two cries (Althoris), Three lies (Carnation), Four buys (Lok) and Five flies (Delmon)
1. How to kill one who can't die?
2. Cries as crying/sad or cries like town cryer?
3. Lies like tells a fib or lies down?
4. Buys what? A round of drinks for everyone?
5. Flies how?
“Hmmm. This sounds like magic. I don’t like magic. I deal with it as little as possible. I’d rather use talent or hard work to do something, not cheat with magic. I have no idea how to kill him.” Wolf says to the guy he has been talking to. As Mr Dory is described, Wolf does a history and arcana check to see if he knows anything like the things Dory has.
History: 17
Arcana: 19 wut wut! (Also I’m literally just guessing at everything since I had to speed read this entire thing)
