    "Vrakrash, you're alive" Iuric cheers as he pats the Dragonborn on the back.

    Sarric whispers back, "Those dwarves that we were doing a job for liked to copulate with everything they seen, maybe one of them took advantage of our golden dragonbourne."

    Vrakrash sheepishly sheathes his weapons.

    'Nice to see you made it, friends. There is a city yonder that we have safe passage within. I suggest we rest up, perhaps trade some items and then plot our next move.'

    'And it is good to see you too, cleric Iuric, safe and well.'

    "Indeed, is it so? I had heard of some of the more strange dwarven cults. He has been a good companion."

    Karinth sits on a rock and takes and orange from his backpack to have a bite.

    "Cleric? Not I. More of a divine warrior and deliverer of justice"


    "And before I forget" Iuric hands Sarric and Vrakrash 335GP each "Payment from Dorin."

    'My deepest apologies, Iuric. I had assumed your divinity was derived from a type of cleric. I will not make that mistake again my friend.'

    He takes the coin and pockets it.

    'There are other spoils to be divvied out, my friends. I have collected... yet more valuable gems from the plane we just left.

    If I ever get the opportunity to sell them, I will split the coin amongst us all.'

    He looks around.

    'What of Jeremy and Ser Boros? Did they make it out with you? Where did you end up?'

    "My divinity is hereditary. Have you ever seen one of those demonic looking folk? They are my dark reflection. I have a touch of the divine and they the demonic." Iuric turns to look at the portal "Strange, they were behind me when I stepped through."

    Iuric looks puzzled "OK"


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,873 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Vrakrash claps Jeremy on the shoulder. 'It is good to see you are well. Now, if you folks will excuse me... I have a number of wares to sell from my pack.'

    Vrakrash heads directly for the city, in search of a jewellers to sell his gems.

    OOC: Won't be about tonight, but Vrakrash will be searching this new city until he finds somewhere to sell his gems.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,863 ✭✭✭Evade


    Iuric heads towards the city after Vrakrsh keeping an eye out for a jeweler's or antique shop, an armoursmith, somewhere selling a nice piece of wood, and a temple or shrine to a reputable deity he knows of (OOC: One that's lawful or neutral good).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Sarric follows varkrash and iuric through the city streets keeping eyes open for aventure and the strange.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The city is quite odd, having no obvious doors or windows on any of the structures.

    "How'd you get on buddy?" Columbo asks from around Vrakrash's shoulder.

    Vrakrash sighs.

    'No sign of a jewellers. I can't make out a shop from a house, or a brothel from an inn! Any ideas?'

    "Not really, I can't make anything out either"

    Two of the beings go past, seated on top of a larger version of their kind about four time their size.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,873 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Vrakrash calls out in Draconic.

    'Hail, fellas! Can you point me in the direction of the nearest jewellers... and maybe an inn as well?'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    The beings speak telepathically.

    "A jewllers is there..." the point to a hemispherical building with no obvious distinguishing features and a small hole in the wall as the only entrance.

    "...as for inns, we know of what you speak, but lack the custom."


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,873 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Vrakrash waves his thanks at the beings and looks to Columbo.

    'Jewellers it is!'

    He takes off towards the building he was directed towards.

    He stands before a very smooth wall, that tapers to the dome at the top. At about shoulder height there is a wide enough opening, a good bit wider than Vrakrash.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,873 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Vrakrash hops into the opening and wriggles through.

    'You coming Columbo? Ever seen anything like this city before?'

    "Not at all" Columbo answers as Vrakrash falls into the opening.

    Inside a large spider sits with gems about it.

    L1R8om.jpg

    It taps at a strange box in front of it, a scroll loaded into the top. The box slowly produces speech.

    "Trade....yes?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,863 ✭✭✭Evade


    "Such a... different place, I fear I won't easily find what I'm looking for here" Iuric says to himself while looking at the strange buildings.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 57,873 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Vrakrash nods, after he recovers from the shock of a spider with a talking box.

    'Yes! I have gems to trade my...friend?'

    He opens his backpack and takes out all of his gems save for the huge one from the underwater temple.

    'Some of these are worth more than others...'

    He gestures to the ones on the left.

    'These mostly came from an underwater elven city... from a temple now collapsed.'

    He then gestures to the ones on the right.

    'These ones - came from a dwarven plane. Very valuable elsewhere... probably common here.'

    He looks at the spider and the box.

    'What sort of prices would these fetch me? I have one more I'm certain you will be interested in... but let's talk about these ones first.'

    As he wanders Iuric finds little in the way of religion as he would understand it. There is a single building slightly more decorated than the others. Slightly in that it has two calligraphic symbols on it in plain white.
