As conversation in the room dies down, flint cats identify on the rapier and warns rip "keep in mind lad, ah done this wit th' other weapons as well, ah won't know o' any hexes on th' blade."
Flint freely shares all results from identify.
Flint takes a heavy meal and few tankards of brew as a meal and is willing to use his artisans blessing to create any thing the party might need. Otherwise he is spent for the day and recommends we cast the hut within view of the stable where boris and the cart are.
Seemingly frustrated, Ink cries out, "Ay citizens of Noanar's Hold - know where I can get some arrows?!? They're needed for some hunting! I am trying to be nice and calm about this, but you all are trying my patience!"
Silence for several moments...and then, down the street, a double-hung door opens—just on the bottom—and a quiver half-full of arrows is thrown out on to the dirt road. The bottom half of the door is then shut once more.
Ink walks over to quiver with arrows and picks it up. He looks at the building, waves and says, "Thank you!"
// Can I just say BRAVO to you Away - I actually laughed reading your post. //
With arrows intact, Ink checks the gardens of the various homestead seeking herbs and spices that could double as herbs and incense for his find familiar spell.
The little village is set up to be self-sufficient with food, and the vegetation that is ripening and harvestable right now is in keeping with Leaf Fall. If you spend an hour gathering herbs, you should come up with enough. There's no telling if the villagers will take kindly to you stealing their produce, of course!

The rapier has inherent magic in it like the wight's other weapons. This one requires attunement, like the others; but once attuned, it has the Light and Thrown (range 20/60) properties, in addition to a rapier's normal properties. If thrown, it magically returns to the wielder's hand at the end of his turn.

Ink gathers what he needs for a single casting of Find Familiar, while doing so, he places silver/gold pieces on the houses he takes from totaling the 10gp he'd need to have spent at a retail location... At each garden, he yells an apology, "So sorry, I need this to bring my owl back. I'm leaving payment here for you! Thanks!"
// They're getting retail prices at the producer level!!! //
After gathering what he heeds, Ink returns to the inn - as happy as he could be.
The rest of Crownsguard's rest time passes without incident. The unseen servants bright out a light lunch for those sitting in the main room of the lodge while Marav and Steele continue to sleep.
Crownsguard’s joints unlock. “Rest complete. I feel both rested and refreshed.” Crownsguard raises an arm in front of his face, looking at the reflection, “Smile undamaged.” Crownsguard walks (read: mech stomps) outside, which should be around 4 o’clock right?

When Ink arrives at the inn, he tells them of the observations he made on his walk about, regarding the skeletons and the people's behavior. Then saying, "Thanks to the kind people of the village, and some scouting around, I return with a quiver and twenty arrows and enough supplies to bring back Quill."
He will also ask about the rapier, but pass on it saying, "Until Flint has helped me figure out why I cannot use my other weapons as well as I did before picking up this scimitar of fire, I'm gong to hold off on any new weapons - despite how much fun this rapier seems."
He produces his own leather armor and the wight's burnt studded leather armor from the bag of holding and asks Flint, "You think through your divine connection to Moradin you can combine these two armors, plus whatever other materials you need ( // read gold from my personal stash // ) to create a complete piece of studded leather armor? I figure that this could make a good base for a future magically-enhanced version of studded leathers given that the wight's armor fits the bill for a seasoned warrior, albeit an unkind one, but at least a couple centuries worth of battles won - until he met us." Ink finishes the statement off with a chuckle.
// Away, I'm basing this on the PM convo, let me know if I'm misinterpreting, even so, Ink could still find use in it, and will therefore still ask Flint for his help. //
Ink excuses himself to go upstairs for some privacy so that he can conjure Quill. Along the way he will deliver next to Marav the quiver with FIFTEEN arrows, as he will keep FIVE arrows for himself.
// I am under the assumption that even with the couple of hours (?) spent outdoors plus the hour of short rest that there's still time enough to cast find familiar as a ritual (one hour and ten minutes) and still give us some time before sunset. If not, please let me know and I'll adjust Ink's actions - maybe skip over on bringing Quill back. //
Can Crownsguard use his divine sense to scan the village for undead? Ignoring the giant undead castle.
Sure thing, please describe how you go about this! Just remember it has a range limit and it doesn't work against full cover.
You can make up to four skill checks (one per use of the Divine Sense feature), and the skill used will depend on what actions you take while searching.
"Moradin ForgeLord, we got us a commission. Me elf friend is as brave an' skilled a warrior as elves come, plus a bit more! Take these coins fer payment, an' these leathers fer stock, an' help me craft a suit fer him that any dwarf'd be happy ta call 'is own! "
While Flint channels the divinity of Moradin for the hour-long ritual, Ink will just need to find something firesafe to burn all these herbs and spices in.

// Just a reminder that Ink has his own personal brass brazier he's had since he started casting - needed for Find Familiar. See other possessions in my character sheet. Which, I need to update. Lol. //
Ink sets up in one of the empty rooms and sets up his brazier. He adds the charcoal, herbs and 'natural' incense to it, using some flint stones to spark it and begin its burn. With his spell book by his side he begins the ritual to bring forth Quill. At the end of the ritual the brazier flashes and standing there is a great horned owl. Ink remarks, "Quill, you're a little bit bigger than I remember." With a smile Ink beckons Quill over. As the owl flaps its wings, flecks of cinder can be seen trailing off - the great raptor gets close to Ink and nuzzles him.
"Okay, Quill. I'm happy, too, but I have a little more studying to do." Quill perches on the windowsill looking out, observing the village.
Ink goes back to his spell book and as a ritual casts comprehend languages. He then takes out another book and begins reading it. Ink will study the book for an hour or until his compatriots rouse him from his studies, whichever comes first. At that point he puts his books away and joins everyone in the main room of the tavern.

// Please make a Wisdom (Perception) check with advantage. You also try a Dexterity (Stealth) check if you like, with disadvantage. Otherwise you'll be taking a bit of fire. //

Specifically, Crownsguard will use one scan to try to scan the perimeter for the Hunt Lord, since he’s heard about him.
