Meep's Arcana check: 15

Meep looks around at the others present, and assuming no obvious signs of displeasure, he'll say "Of course - we can definitely find a place for you here. Here's a week's pay in advance, just make sure you keep the noise down while you're here and don't get into too much trouble - wouldn't want that troll who is looking for his skull to find you by mistake!" Meep gives Eze a wink. 

Eze chuckles as she takes the gold and points to the backpack. "You can come visit us in our clubhouse."

That backpack is magical. Since you watched the children descend into it, you think it might be some kind of magical residence, except for in a backpack.

As interested as he is in the backpack brat pack's clubhouse, Meep will volunteer to go with Lussa for her walk. 

Delmalis is still somewhat nervous around Lussa, and remains to help sort out repairs for the tavern.

"Looks like it's just us, Meep.  I need to report that we killed the scarecrows and collect the reward, anything you want or need to do along the way?"  Lussa heads for the door, "anyone want us to pick up anything for them while we're out?"

Meep shrugs. "Not really, I could use some more parchment and some quality ink, I've got one more spell to copy from that book we found in the sewers, but otherwise I'm just happy to tag along." 

Lussa nods, "I was thinking maybe stop by the market to see about additional food if the kids will be staying with us, and possibly some sweet treats for everyone on the way back.  What do you think?"

Meep perks up at the mention of food, and readies his things. 

OOC: Do Meep and Lussa want to grab supplies first or head stright to Phaulkonmore?

Lussa will have her pack and weapons, she travels light and tends to keep her things with her.  Her plan is to get to Phaulkonmore to take care of business first, then perhaps dawdle a bit on the return and check out the markets.

As soon as Sybil feels up to it and see people leaving, she'll head out to pass on what happen last night (Scarecrows and hitman) to her contacts. 

(What Lussa said.)

Phaulkonmore

Lussa, you, Meep, and the others get to Phaulkonmore. The groundskeeper greets you all with a smile and hands over the large bag of gold.

Melannor nods. "That's mighty fine you all did out there. The farmers are happy. If you ever need a favor from the Emerald Enclave, you just let us know." 

Harpers

Sybil, you watch Lussa and Meep leave and swore you watched Twitch head out the door. The inn is quiet with the children in their backpack and Demalis is upstairs. When you leave, you remember that Mirt lives in a mansion at the Sea Ward. Is there anything else you'd like to do before heading over there?

Demalis

Demalis sorts out repairs for the tavern when there's a knock at the door. One of the children runs outside and brings in a large box with wines and cheeses. Attached to it is a note.

Lussa takes the bag, "thank you, and if there is anything more you need of me, please do not hesitate to ask.  You know where to find me," she adds with a wink.

If there's nothing else to discuss at Phaulkonmore, she will address Meep and Twitch, "shall we see what tasty treats the markets have to offer?"

Sybil checks her map for the location before heading out for Sea Ward. She just makes a beeline for the mansion to pass the information before heading back to manor.  Proably harass housemates with ritual spells when they're home and she's less hungover.

Delmalis reads the note before taking the box over to set on the bar counter to be shared out when the others are all there before pocketing the note and returning to cleaning and make lists of any and all repairs or modifications needed.

As you reach the house, Mirt isn home but you see another Harper you recognize a man dressed like a ranger. It takes you a moment as you process the information to learn he's Artus Cimber. Regardless you give Mirt the information before leaving the manor as your hangover seems to get worse whenever Mirt starts to talk. You make it back to the manor where there's a large canteen of water. Written on the chalkboard is "Drink this."

Demalis, you make a list of the repairs and modifications. For repairs, most of them need to be made to the upstair floors as you have some cracks in the walls and ceilings. You also note that a few of the tables need to be repaired. As for modifications, you write any modifications you think you and your companions would like to see.

Sybil grabs the canteen and drinks it as she heads up to her room. Now more clear headed, she grabs some paper and string before going into the turrent. Scribbkling Scarecrows on the paper and sticking it to a wall and tie some more strings to some other notes she had up before moving back down to her room, exploring th uses of her new book and shenanigans she can get up to.

  Twitch nods eagerly.

The Market

Lussa, Twitch, and Meep are at the market and everything is priced as it is unless you're looking for something special. You also see different recruitment posters for various factions, jobs, and even a clipping from the Waterdeep Press with the headline "Scarecrow Menace Stopped!" There are even some folks who walk by and whisper about the "new owners of Trollskull Manor." 

Last but not least, you see a flyer advertising The Carnival outside of Waterdeep's city limits.

Is there anything you're looking for in terms of food or other items?

The Manor

Demalis, you continue to take inventory of the various repairs and modifications needed as you hear a soft humming that you figure is Lim just washing down the bar. You notice the inside of the closet where the backpack is located is clean and repaired - much better condition than the other rooms. You figure this was the children's work.

As you finish the last room, there's a knock comes at the door. Sybil, you hear it too.
