Tales from Talaveroth

Paren shakes his head. "It's no threat. It belongs to my employer, it's his familiar. I guess this means that he's managed to track us down." 

"So he knows where you are....is this going to stop you from joining the rest of us here?"

Si'Juul begins walking to the dock and past the bird, watching it closely, but otherwise leaving it alone.

Poinki doesn't fully understand, but takes confidence in the support of Ilmater, who seemed to answer his prayers.  Poinki stands up straight and protectively follows Elhanna.

Paren shrugs. "Who knows with him. My best guess would be that he has an update for me that couldn't wait and that he didn't trust to magical means."

"Your business, not mine...."

Si'Juul keeps walking and makes his way into town, or begins walking towards town if this dock isn't leading right into it. Either way, he will look around for anything shady or potentially dangerous.

Perception:22

Hoping that there is a way for her to make money for the church and a little curious, Elhanna walks over to Paren and ask him “What exactly is it that you do Paren? If you don’t mind me asking of course.” 

Paren gives her a slight smile as they descend the gang plank behind Si'Juul. "I am simply a monk, though that's probably not what you mean. As for what I'm doing here with this current employer, I'm simply the only one he trusted with the job, and I owe him." 

Si'Juul walks straight into town, the docks having lined up nicely with the main street. You notice nothing out of the ordinary for the first bit. Closer to the centre of town though you notice a man seems to be watching you. He's a half-elf, but looks much more scruffy than any half-elf you've ever met. He has a two swords strapped to his back, one over each shoulder and a black cloak. You also notice that his right hand seems to be covered in bandages.

"Is that your employer?"

Si'Juul stops walking and narrows his eyes at the man. If he makes a move towards the group, Si'Juul will slowly slide his hand up towards his holster.

Twitch places her hand on the feathered elbow of her friend: "He's been watching for a while, I don't think he's out to do us harm, and if he was, not here, in the middle of the harbour."

She had spent the journey doing her best to pick up more of the goblin tongue, and tries her best to reassure Poinki that they weren't in any danger, in goblin.

"Maybe not to you....."

Si'Juul will walk right up the the half-elf and cross his arms 

"I'm sure you're not staring simply because you never saw an Aarakocran before."

Paren looks back forward from talking and lets out an even bigger sigh. "Yes. That's him. Don't shoot him, unless you would like to be cooked before you can move. He's a mage." He walks forward and gives a small wave. "How are you barkeep? I assume not so good if you came out here in person." 

The man simply walks up and gives him a hug, which makes Paren look deeply uncomfortable. "It's good to see you thief, very good. Are you going to introduce me to your friends. Come, let's go somewhere to chat in a little more privacy." 

The man leads you a little further on to an inn with a small patio out front and sits down in one of the chairs. "So, who are you and how do you know this scoundrel?" 

"You don't need to know who I am.....I'm sure whatever business you two have has nothing to do with me......"

Si'Juul looks to Twitch and Elhanna.

"If you need me....well, I shouldn't be hard to find....."

He leaves the inn and starts looking into town for any general store or anything that might sell paper.

The man's voice remains flat and calm. "Well that was really more of a formality anyway Si'Juul. And before you shoot, no, I'm not with your old friends. I do have a job that would interest you though, since you seem to be interested in looking out for a certain type of thing. I have a job for all of you actually. It seems I need Paren with me for a while in order to take care of some things back home. I need you all to go on his job in his place."

 (Curious to know how he knows so much so soon :P)

Twitch did make a mental note to talk to Si'Juul about his past, and him thinking out loud whether she would be good for that. Whatever it was, it seemed to have given him a reputation in these parts. Then again, being an aaracokra probably didn't help with trying to keep a low profile.

(How did Si'Juul's search for paper go?)

(Didn't know if you wanted to stop or not after being called out)

Si'Juul quickly finds a small bookshop. The owner is selling individual sheets of paper for 2 sp.

(We can say Si'Juul left after the reveal. He will buy 5 sheets of paper for 1gp. Hey, big spender. :P)

(easy enough)

The supposed wizard turns back to the rest of you after Si'Juul leaves. "Twitch, Elhanna, Poinki, what say you. Do you have any interest in taking up the cause. Oh, I suppose I should tell you what the cause is. What do you know of the Alliance?" His voice never leaves the same even tone of before.

After Si'Juul buys his paper, he will take flight, being careful not to knock anyone over or anything. Making his way back to the dock, sitting on the end, staring off into the horizon.
