The goblin takes the opportunity to climb to his feet before running away, heading back into the woods where the goblins came from.

The group continues heading back to Phandalin but it is not too long before they are now back in town.

" I'll be buying two bottles of wine at Stonehill Inn for any that want to share.", she said heading off that way.

"Saravena, all the travel and fighting we did maybe we should collect the bounty"  Misha says heading for the town hall. 

Rashana looks up at the mention of bounty, then frowns and looks away. She says nothing, but waits to follow Misha and Saravena.

"Saravena, all the travel and fighting we did maybe we should collect the bounty"  Misha says heading for the town hall. 

 Saravena shrugged, " I have enough for my experiments currently, but if your short you definitely should....or do you need me to come with to count?", her face deadpan and a slight amused curl to her lower lip....

Misha smirks at the slight. "I need you to stay with us, Saravena as part of our group and as a witness. Besides I think they'll send us out again on some sort of mission since we're in such high demand. Least we could find out how Sildar and Gundren are doing. Then get some wine."

" Yes, Mum."

The group walks through Phandalin, making their way to the townmaster's hall. Upon arriving you find Sildar, Gundren and Harbin in deep discussion which abruptly halts when you enter.

"Well, did you manage to deal with the orcs?" Harbin asks. He then places a sack on the table. "One hundred gold pieces as promised, if you did."

Gundren hops to his feet, "Ah, it's good to see you again. I have been digging further into what happened to my brothers, and my kidnapping. It seems someone by the name of the Black Spider orchestrated it. This Black Spider seems to be rather dangerous and must have great influence to bring the Cragmaw Castle goblins and the Redbrand under his command.

It's time I make my way to Wave Echo Cave, and see this all through to it's final end. I want you all to join me; you've proven yourselves to be quite capable and I am willing to pay you all twenty-five gold pieces up front and you will gain a ten percent share of the mine's wealth to be split amongst yourselves."

"I, of course, will be joining you," Sildar adds. "My mission in Phandalin was to find out what happened to Iarno Albrek, which you have helped me achieve. But as I said before, my mission is also to bring law and order to Phandalin. I plan to help Gundren and his brothers put the Wave Echo Cave back into production which will bring prosperity to the region and therefore Phandalin, and will help civilize it. To do that, I will have to joing you to Wave Echo Cave.

I'm sure Bitnose and Droop will help, as long as you make it worth their while."

"Although, for now, I think you all will need some rest. Then all eight of us can leave for Wave Echo Cave in the morning."

Saravena perks up at the promise of a guaranteed income in perpetuity.

" Sounds like fun.  I'm in."

Misha takes in all the information "Yes we did take care of the orc's. We even killed an Ogre in the process."

Tilting his head with a question "I thought you were needed here? Sildar."

Sildar nods his head, "Yes, I am needed here. However, I have decided that the best course of action to help Phandalin now is to get that cave opened and help Gundren. I have been busy in your absence and the presence of the Redbrand is eradicated."

"Tis good to hear that since we cut of the head of those snakes, you have dealt with the body...at least we should feel safer around town"

OOC: I have been away for a few days, but coming into town, Tagret would have bee-lined to the trader they returned goods to from the cave the group cleared early on, to rid himself of the cache of weapons he bundled up from the Ogre cave.  Happy to RP it if you like, or just come to a sale price and keep things moving.

"Ok, I guess we'll go to the Stonehill and rest up after we're payed." Misha says

(After trading in the goods and weapons, you walk away with another hundred gold pieces.)

Harbin points at the sack, "Well, there's your payment."

"Excellent," Gundren exclaims. "If we set off in the morning, we should reach the caves by the afternoon. Where should we all meet?"

(Also is there anything else you want to do in Phandalin?)

Rashana will purchase four more pitons, a healers kit, and a tarpaulin to her equipment, then meditate at the tower before retiring for the night.

(( I have assumed that a tarpaulin is about one quarter of a two-person tent in price and weight ))

Tagret would want to purchase one, maybe two healing potions if he can find them....preferably at a discount!  Where would be the most likely place to barter...??

(There is only going to be one place to buy Potions of Healing in Phandalin, and that is Barthen's Provisions.)

Other than wine Saravena doesn't need much at the moment, she hasn't used any of her current reagents and lets those better suited to wilderness planning do so.

Tagret, purse full to overflowing with gold, says to the others "I'm gonna see if Barthen's has healing potions - you might wanna tag along and get some yerselves before we head up to our place"

With that Tagret heads towards Barthen's, greeting whoever is serving "Well met again....be lookin for some healing potions if ya got any in stock?"

"Morning," Elmar greets Tagret. "Welcome to Barthen's Provisions. We do have potions of healing available in stock. We still have some left over from the supply you brought with you. The are fifty gold pieces each. How many would you like to buy?"
