You take the bottle and glasses and head over to Potent Potables to find Ramevik. When you arrive at the alchemist's shop, you find the front door shut and knocking on the door appears to go unheard. When you try the door, you find it locked, which is odd because you know at this time of day the shop is normally open with people coming in and out over the course of the day.
Garcis nods as he looks at the rune, doubting that he would be able to just scratch it off the weapon. His attention turns to the demonstration of the tools, watching carefully.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Eve mouths, “...no, no, no! ..Oh hells!...”. She bangs her fist on the door a couple of times and shouts in, “You in there? You okay??...... ..We’re coming in!...”.
She pulls some small tools out of her satchel and says to everyone and no one, “You never saw this, ok?...”. And then crouches by the door and tries to pick the lock...
Eve brakes a tool in the lock, her hands are shaking so much! She swears in infernal.... “Aaggh!!.....”, and then spins around to Kanithar and the others, “We got to get in there NOW!!”....
Eve calms a little.... “No, I don’t ‘KNOW’... you’re right.... It not like before... ... But we gotta find him... I don’t have a great feeling...”. She says looking around...
She leaves Kanithar (hopefully slightly defused) and tries to look in through the windows.
If they find Edge, he could give the lock a try, his proficiency is higher than Eve's with Thieves' Tools - it's one of his increased proficiencies. As far as I can tell, only Kanithar and Eve when to the alchemist's. Gracis is with the smith and everyone else is still with the mayor and thinking about going to the woods.
Good thinking! Oh awesome! Remind me to always mainly ‘help’ you when we pick locks! ;-) I can’t promise we won’t do something silly though in the meantime!! I think Eve and Kanithar might be a pretty volatile combination to go off on their own lol. If we hit a dead end here I’m sure we’ll regroup shortly :-)
Kanithar/Eve: There are only a couple of windows in the front of the building and peering through them you don't see anything out of order at first, but turning to the side to look in, you see several parchments lying in disarray on the floor around the door leading into the back room.
Kaseon would have encouraged the rest of the group to head to the alchemist's to either wait for or rejoin the others, figuring they'd head out from there. And in case the alchemist came up with answers quick, no point in making them repeat the story.
Senna follows the others after getting her answers from the mayor.
Your right Kaseon lets find Kanithar and Eve. The faster we can head out to these woods the faster we might find some answers.
She will go the alchemist where Eve and Kanithar were heading.
(ooc Senna also has guidance that she could use to aid whoever tries lockpicking again. Havent used on anyone but myself since its difficult in PBP to cast before the check is done)
Judge might be too well trained to respond, but Eve full on howls to see if the wolf responds...

Eve: You receive no response to your wolf howl.
Before Senna follows the others she will ask the mayor Do you know if Madenal wore the ring or if he merely found it?
She looks closer trying to remember properly I've heard about such a ring, it can be used to shield ones mind from anyone trying to read it.
Perhaps it belongs to the one responsible.
(ooc @DM: would Senna know about a possible soul being inside the ring?)
Senna: Mayor Hulmar looks at the ring and nods, "I remember him wearing it at times, more often when he first moved here, but not as much recently."
(OOC: Senna would probably not know much about that at this point in her adventuring career.)
Senna looks puzzled a moment Interesting, so he was wearing it long before he got sick?
She pauzes with a bit of doubt to ask. If you dont mind me asking, how would a fishermen come to own a magic ring such as thing?
Mayor Hulmar raises his eyebrows when you say the ring is magical. "I honestly have no idea, it never came up."
