Albrecht is very quiet on the way back, staying nearer to the wagon and using his daily spells to help heal everyone, but keeping Shillelagh prepared just in case. Glad to make it back to the city, Albrecht opts to sleep just outside the city near the road and stables. He comes in every morning to meet the group in the dinning room of their tavern. He doesn't have much to buy anything with, so he waits to see how they want to split the profits from all the gear they managed to collect.
Avan follows Zork to the guard post to support his claim and ask for reward. He describes the location and description of the fort in detail. He asks how the guard plans to solve this issue, perhaps they could offer reinforcements or spell support?
Krusten is also interested in what the locals have to say about it but she also asks about a map of the surrounds and for them to describe who owns the fort we encountered.
Zork grumbles that the town is too mild in its thinking but doesn't make it known because he knows he will need to buy supplies. First he will get himself some rest and then seek the local mage to see what potions are available. He suggests to the party to do the same.
Out of Character: I will talk about leveling up in the create character thread.
Avan asks whose jurisdiction it is and if there are any other towns to the north that would appreciate our help. Perhaps he needs to go one step higher and speak to an earl or count?
If the officials don't tell him, he goes to the citizens, visiting taverns and inns. He tries to visit the public houses in the south of town, hoping to run into the ranger to celebrate with him.
Out of Character: Almost rolled Diplomacy, but that's Pathfinder rules. I forgot Gather Information was a separate skill. Edited: iCon on 7th Sep, 2016 - 2:07pm
Having seen so much bloodshed Faerydae goes to the nearest sanctuary for prayer and meditation. Once she feels redeemed she will see about better equipping herself so she can take a more active role.
Krusten can't believe the locals are more worried about the heads that if these same people were robbing travelers. She leaves in disappointment and heads over to the man who invented her bow. She asks him if he has anything that might cause an explosion when the arrow hits and the cost.
Avan shares his thoughts that perhaps an audience with the Earl is a bit hasty and premature. Maybe after the stronghold is cleared he will be more open to seeing them.
He ends his day by helping the party sell the items, splitting the profits and looking for the hired ranger to celebrate a safe return. He asks the ranger for tips and hints when it comes to tracking, after having observed him during the journey. (Explaining how I have the Track feat).
