[17:17] Pionia Destiny: nods at the gobblin with the funny pants*

[17:19] Dillard Bloobury: "Poor Tal, went an' lost 'is head. Err....his head lost his body. Somethin' like that"
[17:20] Pionia Destiny: I wanted o bring him along.. but .. I am not a relative so i couldn't bring him along... he'll be just a memory ,,lost in the ashes of the village
[17:21] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *notices that he has lost his favorite dagger*
[17:21] Dillard Bloobury: "I'm sure he'll be a'right. Prolly havin' a good ol' time down there with them worms."
[17:21] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *scans the ground franticly*
[17:22] Dillard Bloobury darts his glance over, watching Grobb, "whatcha lookin' fer?"
[17:22] Pionia Destiny: *sighs*... well, sir gobblin.. sir grobb..
[17:22] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): My dagger! I must have dropped it somewhere
[17:23] Dillard Bloobury giggles and looks around, "I don't see it...... Was you sayin' somethin' Pionia?"
[17:23] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *kicks at the dirt* Drat!
[17:23] Pionia Destiny: +looks around*
[17:23] Pionia Destiny: where did you drop it, sir?
[17:23] Pionia Destiny: we can go look for it..
[17:24] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *mutters* If I knew that...
[17:24] Dillard Bloobury shrugs, "Maybe ya drop'd it on th' ship when you was comin' in off th' docks?"
[17:24] Pionia Destiny: Looks in her boots..
[17:25] Pionia Destiny: *gets a dagger and passes it to the gobblin* here, sir.. you can have mine..
[17:25] Dillard Bloobury tilts his head and quirks an eyebrow watching as Pionia reaches into her boot.
[17:25] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): Ugh, I doubt I'll be sing it again... Hope I don't run into any trouble til I get a replacment.
[17:25] Pionia Destiny: it's a good dagger
[17:25] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *reaches for the dagger*
[17:26] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): thanks a lot Pionia. Appriciate it.
[17:26] Pionia Destiny: smiles ... as she hands the dagger*
[17:26] Dillard Bloobury: "Daggers is usually easy t' come by."
[17:26] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): This one was my favorite one though. *shrugs*
[17:26] Pionia Destiny: I got some more back home
[17:26] Dillard Bloobury turns his attention back to Pionia's face, "you wanna see my office?"

[17:26] Azriel Danick: good day to you all
[17:27] Pionia Destiny: They are easy to use and fast to cut with.. smiles
[17:27] Azriel Danick: *truns and bows his head* LAdy
[17:27] Dillard Bloobury jumps back for a second surprised by Azriel's sudden appearance, "Oh hey there, fella."
[17:27] Pionia Destiny: *looks at the newcomer..* greetigs, sir ..
[17:27] Azriel Danick: I see you have some new friends
[17:27] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): Greetings.

[17:28] Pionia Destiny: *smiles * nice to see you, sir..
[17:28] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *notices Azriel's necklace* My dagger! it looks just like the one I was talking about!
[17:28] Dillard Bloobury shifts on his feet and watches Azriel with interest
[17:29] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): Cept mines a lot bigger than that.
[17:29] Azriel Danick: *looks down at the necklace and then at the goblin* you mean this necklace is yours or that it looks like your
[17:29] Pionia Destiny: *looks at the necklace* mmm that's indeed beautiful, sir Azriel..
[17:29] Azriel Danick: ahh, I see
[17:29] Azriel Danick: thank you Lady Pi
[17:29] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): Looks like it, too small to be the dagger I lost though.
[17:30] Azriel Danick: well Im sure it isn't here
[17:30] Pionia Destiny: I have seen it before.. It always caught my eye.. but I was to shy to compliment on it.. *looks at her hands*
[17:30] Dillard Bloobury looks confused, "How could you be sure a that? "
[17:30] Azriel Danick: and who might this be* looks at the other creature*
[17:30] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): How are you sure of that?
[17:30] Azriel Danick: this is a new land so it couldn't be here
[17:31] Azriel Danick: and if it were I would know
[17:31] Dillard Bloobury: "Well, he had it earlier an' then dropped it. I doubt you can really inventory this entire town like that."
[17:31] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *puzzled by the response*
[17:31] Azriel Danick: *turns his attention to Pionia* shy Lady why woul dyou be?
[17:31] Azriel Danick: where were you then
[17:31] Pionia Destiny: Sir azriel.. this is Sir Dillard..
[17:32] Azriel Danick: *nods to Dillard*
[17:32] Pionia Destiny: and old artsonian... and this is his friend .. sir grobb
[17:32] Dillard Bloobury snorts and gives Grobb a glance before turning back to Azriel, "A'right then, fella, tell me everything that sits in the Tavern down there right at this second."
[17:32] Azriel Danick: *nods again*
[17:33] Azriel Danick: *chuckles* I don't think I need to do that
[17:33] Dillard Bloobury: "So ya don't know, I take it?"
[17:33] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *looks a Dillard* Nah, he don't know.
[17:33] Azriel Danick: if I did why would I have asked where you were when you droped it?
[17:33] Pionia Destiny: *looks at the gentlemen and smiles amused at their conversation*
[17:33] Dillard Bloobury: "Huh?"
[17:34] Azriel Danick: *shrugs* never mind
[17:34] Dillard Bloobury: "Ya said you knew his dagger wasn't here an' that ya knew everything in this village. Seems kinda odd"
[17:34] Pionia Destiny: Sir Dillard.. Sir azriel is an honorable warrior..
[17:34] Azriel Danick: I meant I hadn't seen it if I had I would have returned it
[17:35] Dillard Bloobury: "You said you could assure us it wasn't here. Doesn't make much sense. Did ya know we was up here before ya saw us?"
[17:35] Azriel Danick: nor have I seen either of you .*coughs* gentlemen here before
[17:35] Pionia Destiny: *nods at what the warrior says*
[17:35] Pionia Destiny: yes...
[17:35] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *scratches his head* I've seen you at the tavern here several time. Figured you know everyone that set foot here.
[17:35] Azriel Danick: I didn't know if anyone was here I come here on rounds
[17:35] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *times
[17:36] Azriel Danick: I have seen you once in the tavern yes
[17:36] Azriel Danick: bri9efly I should say
[17:36] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *nods*
[17:36] Dillard Bloobury: "So ya coudnt have assured anyone that there are currently no goblins at th' guild until ya walked up here, but you can assure us that a li'l bitty ol' dagger is nowhere in this entire big village."
[17:36] Pionia Destiny: Sir Grobb.. as sir dillard says .. maybe you lost it ..in the ship..
[17:36] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *shrugs*

[17:37] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): Alexius?

[17:38] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): *laughs*
[17:38] Pionia Destiny: *feels sorry for the gobblin* .. I know .. what it is o lose someting special.. mmm
[17:38] Azriel Danick: *his green eyes flare at being called a liar* I didn't lie about anything
[17:39] Grobb Foulblood (thegrumpygoblin): Seems like you might have exagerated a bit though.
[17:39] Dillard Bloobury: "How'd you help us find it if ya already claimed it's nowhere t' be found? You stated somethin' as fact that you'd have no possible way of knowin'. Sounds like a lie t' me."
[17:39] Pionia Destiny: *opens her eyes and smiles nervously* .. Oh sir azriel.. sir dillard didn't mean that..
[17:39] Dillard Bloobury: "Perhaps tryin' t
[17:39] Dillard Bloobury: ' be a braggart? I dunno, but ya sounded like a damned fool, elf."

[17:43] Dillard Bloobury grins evilly at Azriel, "run along then, boy. Maybe on yer rounds ya could think about how dumb it is t' guarantee things ya have no way of actually knowin'"

[17:55] Pionia Destiny: firelies... says to herself
[17:56] Azriel Danick: *chuckles* I'm nothing like Destiny
[17:56] Pionia Destiny: Sir Destiny was really sad.. last time I saw him..
[17:56] Azriel Danick: I haven't seen in a long while

[17:56] Dillard Bloobury kicks his feet and tilts his head again, watching Azriel with interest, "Ya, seem like brothers, t' me. Tellin' stories, gettin' mad all th' time, tryin' t' impress all th' ladies."
[17:56] Azriel Danick: him*
[17:57] Azriel Danick: I didn't know I was trying to impress anyone
[17:57] Dillard Bloobury laughs, "then why else'd ya lie like that an' claim ya knew everything tht was in this village all th' time? I doubt it was t' impress me."
[17:58] Pionia Destiny: *feels embarrassed* Sir, Azriel is a perfect gentleman.. and sir Destiny is even more... a gentleman.. sir Dillard...

[17:58] Azriel Danick: I imagine you have that effect om a great many people
[17:58] Pionia Destiny: *looks at he lights and wonders where they come from*
[17:59] Azriel Danick: where is the other goblin Lady?
[17:59] Pionia Destiny: *looks back at the goblin...mmm why is it that the goblin is so mad at the warrior..mmm*
[17:59] Dillard Bloobury grins, showing his teeth, "Why? Cause I call loud mouthed liars out on their bullshit? Yeah, that makes folks mad sometimes, but it don't bother me none."
[18:00] Pionia Destiny: Oh... he was here a minute ago,...
[18:00] Pionia Destiny: *shrugs her shoulders * probably he went to look for his dagger
[18:00] Azriel Danick: well in the future I will be more careful of the words I choose
[18:00] Dillard Bloobury laughs louder, "So ya can guarantee that no little dagger is anywhere 'round here, but ya don't even know how t' find a whole goblin? I figured you knew where he was at all times"
[18:00] Azriel Danick: I only meant that I was sure that the dagger was not here
[18:01] Dillard Bloobury doubles over laughing
[18:01] Pionia Destiny: *looks at the warrior.. and now she's impressed*
[18:01] Azriel Danick: well as this is the hall for all the guilds I'm sure he will be safe enough
[18:01] Pionia Destiny: *admires his patience and tact on dealing with the goblin..mmm smiles*
[18:01] Dillard Bloobury slaps his knee and wipes tears from his eyes, "but that's my whole point, fella! How in th' world would ya know that it ain't here? "
[18:01] Azriel Danick: of course there are things that might enjoy a little goblin dinner
[18:01] Pionia Destiny: Yes..
[18:02] Dillard Bloobury: "So ya know everything that's in them cabinets behind ya?"
[18:02] Azriel Danick: I'm sure he will turn up.. one way or the other
[18:03] Dillard Bloobury narrows his eyes and waits for a response
[18:03] Azriel Danick: Me? of course not I never look into others belongings
[18:03] Pionia Destiny: *gigles.. and wonders how much more patience the warrior have*
[18:03] Dillard Bloobury: "So you know the dagger, aint here. But ya also don't know what's in the cabinets? I don't think ya understand what yer sayin'"
[18:03] Azriel Danick: of course I do help take out the trash if needed* looks down at the goblin and smiles*
[18:04] Pionia Destiny: *shakes her head and giggles quietly*
[18:04] Azriel Danick: or remove unwanted guests if asked
[18:04] Dillard Bloobury puffs his chest out and narrows his eyes with a grin, "I ain't sure ya realized who yer talkin' to, boy. "
[18:05] Azriel Danick: nor you
[18:05] Pionia Destiny: *sighs and rolls her eyes... here it comes... *
[18:05] Azriel Danick: *he smiles while looking the goblin in the eyes*
[18:06] Pionia Destiny: *clears her throat...* gentlemen..please.. I am so thirty..
[18:06] Pionia Destiny: why don't we go find something nice to drink
[18:06] Dillard Bloobury: "I know I'm talkin' t' somebody that is still statin' facts that he can't back up. An' if ya wanna talk 'bout uninvited guests, I suggest ya talk with Minniver an' check t' see if my name is on yer guest lists. I'm far from new 'round here, boy."
[18:06] Azriel Danick: if you like Lady. I would be happy to escort you
[18:06] Pionia Destiny: some nice red wine.. sounds delightful..
[18:07] Azriel Danick: I didn't say you weren't
[18:07] Pionia Destiny: Sir, azriel.. Sir Dillard is an old villager and he came here as everybody else..
[18:07] Pionia Destiny: he's one of us..
[18:08] Dillard Bloobury laughs and shakes his head, "You might very well be th' dumbest person I ever met. An' that includes Nick an' Gadget."
[18:08] Pionia Destiny: and he's a wonderful dancer, too
[18:08] Azriel Danick: I'm sure he has and all are welcome of course
[18:08] Pionia Destiny: so.. shall we go for a drink.. smiles t the gentlemen..
[18:08] Azriel Danick: if you like
[18:09] Azriel Danick: are you alright?
[18:10] Pionia Destiny: yes.. waiting for you
[18:10] Azriel Danick: *chuckles* oh I keep up
[18:10] Pionia Destiny: where's the goblin?
[18:11] Azriel Danick: sorry. he's in the guild hall I guess
[18:11] Azriel Danick: to busy talking to walk?
[18:11] No room to sit here, try another spot.

Dillard Bloobury shrugs and looks up to the ceiling, "I'm doin' a'right I suppose. Kinda weak. Louis, he tell me don't get up. I don't remember much. Gettin' covered in water an' I think I remember hearin' yer voice at some point later on"

Naeve Greybeard: " Perhaps that is just as well." she slips her hand under his jaw, and after a minute nods satisfied with the results." If I prop you up do you think you could take some warm broth? " she turns and lifting the cover shows him the bowl of strained soup, taking care not to smell its wormy aroma too much.

Dillard Bloobury twists his head as she feels under his jaw. He pushes with his hands on the table, easing himself up and nods sniffing at the air, "Oh yeah, I could definitely use somethin' t' eat."

Naeve Greybeard: " you'll likely be a little weak yet " Places a few pillows behind him in case. "Take it slow at first Dillard." She nods happy at his apparent appetite, another good sign and pulls the tray closer.

Dillard Bloobury blinks a few times and eyes the tray. He reaches out slowly for the bowl, bringing it up to his mouth and takes a long, loud slurp. "You make this yerself? It's pretty good."
Naeve Greybeard: Smiles a little" Yes, recipe I was given by Tobrin, one of his favs. “Her voice trails off wondering if that goblin managed to escape.

Dillard Bloobury slurps again and closes his eyes resting them before taking another drink, "Oh yeah, Tobrin. Ain't seen him in a while. So, ya'll hung Pionia yet? Or was ya waitin' fer me t' tie the noose?"

Naeve Greybeard: "That’s a matter for the Druid  Council. There will be no lynching’s here."  She speaks her voice firm. She knows that if they fail in this first major issue the hope for creating a place that was fair and just for all was doomed.

Dillard Bloobury shakes his head and takes another drink, "Well, I'm sure it'll take a while fer ya'll t' determine th' correct method a execution. Reckon when I get up I can go an' see 'r in jail."

Naeve Greybeard: “I think that you need to worry about gaining your strength back and less about Pionia's fate for now."

Dillard Bloobury sets the bowl back on the tray and falls back on the pillows with a groan, "Ah, I'm feelin' a'right. Should be up 'for long. No tellin' how much this down time is costin' me in business though."

Naeve Greybeard: "Now you sound just like my broth. .." She stops and her smile vanishes at the memory of their last meeting. With a sigh she takes the tray from him and sets it back on the table.

Magdalena Easterwood: Hello Naeve. *quietly* How is he?

Naeve Greybeard: Hearing the door, turns, "Hello Maggie, He's doing very well . Ate a whole bowl of strained worm soup ."

Magdalena Easterwood: Good! He should be up for some worm noodles with that soon, if we're lucky.

Dillard Bloobury turns his head and watches Maggie, "I'm doin' a'right. Ready t' be up an' out there."

Magdalena Easterwood: Well look, Dil, don't push it.

Dillard Bloobury exhales through his nose and nods, "Aye, 'at seems t' be th' theme. Sit here an' don't push it. Just waitin' 'round until they execute Pionia, I reckon."

Magdalena Easterwood: Huh?

Naeve Greybeard: "Dillard, we went over that ."

Magdalena Easterwood: Why in heaven would they ever execute our gentle Pionia?

Dillard Bloobury leans back on the pillow and closes his eyes with a groan.

Naeve Greybeard: Looks at Maggie and shakes her head

Magdalena Easterwood: *nods, understanding she'll catch up about it with Naeve, later on*

Dillard Bloobury: "Just watch yerself 'round 'r if she gets out. She's a wreckless murderer."

Naeve Greybeard: Pulls up the blanket and settles it around his chin

Magdalena Easterwood: mmm hmmm, we'll talk about it later.

Naeve Greybeard: "oh? a decision Maggie? " she chooses to ignore his  last remark

Dillard Bloobury mutters under his breath, his eyes still closed

Magdalena Easterwood: I've been to several different villages and I thought I had settled on trying to be a healer in three of them but I will not be working in Cadair..

Magdalena Easterwood: I found myself offended and had to question what it was in me that made me feel that way.

Magdalena Easterwood: So, that is done and over.

Naeve Greybeard: "Perhaps that is wise, you can't spread yourself too thin, or you'll end up next to Dillard here." points at the other cot

Magdalena Easterwood: I'm sure Louis will keep me busy enough here.

Naeve Greybeard: " I worry with so many living in close quarters and so little food , both are conditions thatI have seen lead to the quick spread of disease.

Dillard Bloobury grumbles under his breath again, "Pionia'll keep ya busy with all her murders"

Naeve Greybeard: We may need more hands than we have "

Magdalena Easterwood: Why did Pionia hurt you? It's so not her.

Dillard Bloobury closes his eyes and shrugs again, "I dunno. Bloodlust?"

Naeve Greybeard: Busies herself with tidying the tray and bedside table.

Magdalena Easterwood: Bloodlust! Oh my. *decides to drop that subject as well as it just doesn't fit*

Magdalena Easterwood: *grabs some rags and a basin and starts scrubbing the hearth*

Dillard Bloobury cracks eye open again, looking to Naeve, "So ya'll made any decisions 'bout watchmens yet?"
Magdalena Easterwood: *pours herself a cup of calming tea.*

Naeve Greybeard: Blushes sligthly . " er um.. yes, the council has reached a consensus. The candidate will be formally announced soon. "

Magdalena Easterwood: *busies herself changing the sheets between sips of tea* Got any rum left in here?

Naeve Greybeard: chin points to the desk drawer

Magdalena Easterwood: *rummages through the drawer finding a small flask which she uncorks and dumps a generous shot into her tea.*

Dillard Bloobury nods and closes his eyes again, "Well, I'm sure it'll be a great candidate." He cracks his eye open again to see where the rum is, "I thought we drank all that."

Naeve Greybeard: "I brought in a fresh bottle of home brew last night. Not bad really, it’s a little harsh perhaps." Shrugs

Magdalena Easterwood: It's good enough for me! Naeve, what do we do about the dwindling supplies

Dillard Bloobury: "I fount that one bottle up in Louis's room. Was real good but I ended up drankin' it all. Good t' know ya fount more."

Naeve Greybeard: Sighs heavily and paces to stand before the fire. " Maggie, I brough t in some dried roots from the old woman I got the rum from but I really hated to accept them. We'll need to source more soon .. Maggie do you have a horse or a mount of sorts? We could go on a scouting expedition, see what there is in the nearby hills."

Dillard Bloobury: "I gotta big rat ya'll could borrow"

Magdalena Easterwood: hmmmm. I don't but I wouldn't mind seeing if I could find one that would suit me.

Naeve Greybeard: I managed to barter my healing and my last bit of coin for a good mare, I could take you to the stables later and show you. I named her Zephyr. " A smile spreads across her face at the thought of the lively mare.

Magdalena Easterwood: *smiles* she sounds lovely. I'd love to meet her.

Dillard Bloobury: "When I can get up an' 'round I'll call up my dire rat an' show ya'll. Makes a good mount. I named 'm Destiny."

Naeve Greybeard: " Well once we have someone to keep an eye on our friend here, I'll introduce you "

Magdalena Easterwood: Yeah, don't want nuthin to happen to Dillard.

Dillard Bloobury: "True. Never know what'll happen here. Never know who'll turn out t' be a cold blooded murderer."

Naeve Greybeard: Casts him a hard look while she contemplates lacing some tea with a sedative,and looks at the herbs hanging overhead for some St. Johns wort

Magdalena Easterwood: *shakes her head at Dillard*

Dillard Bloobury waves his feet back and forth under the covers and looks around the room. He tries to lean up on his elbows again, but shakes his head, still dizzy.

Naeve Greybeard: " Hmmmm you know , we could use some chairs or stools in here. I'll have to see if Keifer can make us some at for a low price.

Magdalena Easterwood: especially if we're going to have any meetings.

Naeve Greybeard: Well I think Meetings can be hosted in the warmth of the library

Magdalena Easterwood: I forgot! Wonderful  that we have that to use.

Dillard Bloobury: "Sounds like a good idea. 'course if i hafta stay here much longer, I'll hafta move my business in here. So'll need some type a waitin' area fer folks comin' t' see me."
