Gijigume regards the loot and the cart. "This ain't gonna be fun, but if we want to make the most of this trip, we'll have to pull the cart ourselves." He then starts stripping off his armour. "And as Aeliarin says, we should probably check out their rubbish too: At least we have the stream to wash ourselves in afterwards." He begins searching the refuse piles. "By the way, does anybody know where Cragmaw Castle is, or is that another thing we have to find out?"

The supplies all have the symbol of a blue lion embossed on the sacks and boxes. Sidlar upon seeing this tells you "That's the symbol of Lionshield Coster, a merchant house in Phandalin. They will probably offer a reward if you return their goods."
DM Note: Don't forget that Gijigume is now 2nd level

Im going to tie the rope back on and use it like a leash, but I'm going to be nice, also I'm gonna get another orc arm, cook it and save it for later, now I'm going to head back to the group "hay can someone tell me what's going on, also, meet fang, are new wolf companion, (insert names of those who can help me tame it on your policy) I might need your guys help"

Grond rounds you all up "Okay we've spent enough time here. Let's move on to Phandalin." It's a tedious job push/pulling that wagon but you eventually make it to the town. You drop Sildar at an inn so that he can rest and recover from his wounds. He thanks you and gives you 50gp as a reward for saving his life. (DMNote: You each get 28gp for that part of the adventure. As Grond promised he isn't taking a cut. There are also 3 potions of healing, two of which Igneous has pocketed. You may wish to set some ground rules about how magic items are split up going forward. My own opinion is healing potions and the like should be a party resource to be used as needed. There are many places you will need to visit while in town so I will post a map here for future reference.)
Grond "We have to start somewhere so let's go to those merchants whose stuff we found, Lionshield Coster. I'm not a good talker so any of you who want's to do the talking jump right in."
You find the building, out front hanging above the front door of this modest trading post is a sign shaped like a wooden shield with a blue lion painted on it. Inside you meet Linene Graywind the proprietor and when you explain that you have found her goods she is overjoyed and gives you 50gp for their return. She also promises to help you in any way she can.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Fah'lin thanks Linene for her generosity, and takes a look around her establishment. Before asking her how she might be able to help.
Perception: 10
(We've got 60 gold in party funds if anyone wants or needs anything. Is Gronds 50 also into the party fund? Or was that a portion of our 28 gold individual rewards? If the former we've 110gp)

The gold amount I mentioned above is from the first part of the adventure the 50gp from the merchant is new and extra. Searching the store you find that there is a good range of adventuring gear as well as armour and weapons.
She warns you that there is a bunch of ruffians called the Redbrands who like to think that they run the town. If you want to avoid them then stay away from the Sleeping Giant tap house.
"We'll keep that in mind, thanks. Were actually searching for the leader if the orc group that stole your goods. Can you point us toward some place called 'Cragmaw Castle' or maybe someone who knows about the orc camps in this area? Also, has there been any efforts to bring these 'Redbrands' to justice?"
Side note: any chance Linene will part with a Breastplate dirt cheap? Maybe if Aeliarin backs my play. (Persuasion: 18 (3 Guidance if granted) I've only got 34g, maybe she'd offer credit.)
If she's got a cage or kennel big enough for a wolf we may want that too.

(http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/faithful I'd just as happily play mechanically with The Great Old One as his patron but The Seeker flavor suits this character.)

OOC: Is it okay if I change Gijigume's elven cantrip, which he hasn't used?
Aeliarin will be glad to provide magical guidance and soothing bardic music to help with the wolf taming, as appropriate.

Igneous ties the wolf leash to the wagon and asks Grond to help train in learning and understand his ki.

(I'd like to take the Hexblade patron. I've not researched it but it looks like it'll suit this character very well.)
