"Don't worry, ma'am. In fact, I think I'll get along just fine with these fellows. Now go rest up, folks; we'll set out tomorrow and find the blade."

The mercs nod and spread out to buy the resources. Meanwhile, he is greeted by the stable master who smiled at him and asked:

"What would you like to buy, my good man?" He asked

Damoni counted out the money. "51 wyverns please." He wondered briefly if the stables even had that many wyverns, but decided not to worry about it.

"We'll meet at this tavern, ok boss?" She asked, pointing at a nearby tavern. "Try and not get yourself killed, please!"

The man stared at Damoni as if he didn't hear right, he smiled again at Damoni and asked:

"Excuse me, did you just say 51 wyverns?" He asks nicely, with the same wide smile on his face.

Iosef began to pan the streets for urchins and other unfortunates. He wanted a guide, but not one that had any want, other than a need for gold.

Children would have little to no idea about what to do with so much money; older men were too crafty, too consumed by greed to stop at any single price.

It's not like the young adults and the unfortunate were clean of those vices, but perhaps if he could even a poor man and his family...

And he does encounter a man that really seemed down on his luck, he had merchant's clothing, it was however quite torn, meaning that trading hadn't gone so well in these deserts. He looked at Iosef with empty eyes, then looked back at the sky, staring into nothingness. Maybe he could talk to this man.

@Claw2k11

Iosef knelt down in front of the man, and leaned over him so his lips almost touched the man's ear.

"Meriath," was the only word he whispered.

"I want to see Meriath. I will pay you a great sum for you to take me through a route where no one will follow me, and for you to shut your mouth if asked about it. You will have to hide for a few days, too."

"We'll meet at this tavern, ok boss?" She asked, pointing at a nearby tavern. "Try and not get yourself killed, please!"

"Will do." With that, Connor walks off and looks around the town.

His eyes suddenly go wide at the word and he says:

"Yes, right away!" He says eager. "Though you could have said that word to anyone and they would have lead you there with no requirement of payment." He answered and lead Iosef through a maze of alleyways until they reached what seemed to be a small well kept temple.

"Say the same thing to head priest inside the building, he will give you what you need and will take you where you need to go in mere seconds." The man said with a smile, as if his misfortunes had gone away in the past few minutes.

<Snipped quote by Claw2k11>

"Will do." With that, Connor walks off and looks around the town.

The town was a bustling metropolis, rivaling in size the Human and Elven cities, despite belonging to none of the two of the above. This city was filled with all sorts of species in here. This city was a magnet for all sorts of traders.

However, this day, the streets were quite clear and people were scarce, most of them being strong bandits or mercs. And soon he found out why. A large, scarred man, followed by dozens of other bandits came through.

If he looked on the poster to the left, he could see it was a wanted poster for the man heading his way. He was named Goran the Ripper and he has a bounty of over 500 platinum coins... a fortune! Though he must have earned both his nickname and his reward.

@Claw2k11

For the man, it might be true. Iosef sliced off half a platinum coin using his newly acquired blade, and handed the man a knob. Rags to riches, one might say.

"Ah, but you must hide and keep quiet, remember? Do so for a week, and then I'll pay you the other half, understand?"

The man nods and heads back with his coin with a large smile on his face. Meanwhile, behind Iosef a bald man in black robe tilted his head and stared at Iosef as if waiting for him to say something.

@Claw2k11

Iosef tilts his head sideways back, before subconsciously casting Allure.

Whoops.

Whoops.

The man was seemingly not affected, or if he was, he certainly wasn't showing it. He put his hand on Iosef's shoulder and said:

"If you are not here for our "guidance" then I advise you leave." The man said. "We wouldn't want anything to happen to that pretty little face now do we?"

@Claw2k11

Iosef makes an awry smile, and nods.

"I suppose you wouldn't be the head priest here, would you?"

Yup. Thanks, Mom for the free traits...

@Claw2k11

Iosef makes an awry smile, and nods.

"I suppose you wouldn't be the head priest here, would you?"

Yup. Thanks, Mom for the free traits...

"I am his Hand, why do you seek his services?" the man asks in a monotonous tone. "Did anyone in particular send you here?"

Maryvale nods and climbs on after the rest, without a word, other than: "Ready. Let's be off."

She would most likely leave the details to the others. For one, Blood felt fatigued from fighting, her black magic having taken it's toll on her. Of course, during battle, with adrenaline pumping, she could often go for long periods of time without feeling the after-effects of her magic. However as soon as that adrenaline faded, a wave of exhaustion would almost always wash over her.

She was thankful her healing would begin to take place within another couple minutes. Though it likely wouldn't do much, since the dragon was much faster than their mounts.

The high elf comes close to her and asks her in a whisper:

"My lady, is it wise to trust this dragon?" he asks, whispering. "Dragons are well known for their deceit and greed, maybe once we defeat the guardian to the first sword, he'll eliminate us." he asks in a whisper.

@Claw2k11
"So, what's this person like? I'm eager to meet them." Colmaz was also eager to sleep in a soft bed and wash his hair, but he decided it best not to say that.

"For now, we'll have you rest a bit while I send a servant to fetch them." he says as they entered the main room of the castle. "Just ask a passing servant if you want to take a bath or anything like that, they'll guide to the bath." he says leaving towards his room.

@Delta44@Claw2k11
*knight's wings slowly unfurl, then with a small dragonic smile he launches into the sky fast enough for it to be like a roller coaster, but slow enough to where no one falls off. With a smirk he reaches the avian and chuckles.* "are you sure you wouldn't like a ride avian?" *there is a large amount of amusement in his voice as he speaks*

Colmaz sighed in relief. Thank the lord for baths. As for his new warrior friend, he'd just have to wait and find out what they were like. It was odd being in a place with so much extravagance. Having actual servants just walking around... it was surreal.
For now, Colmaz really wanted a bath, and maybe some actual food. Not just stale bread and bruised apples.
He tried to flag down a passing servant. "Do you happen to now where a bath is? I'd really appreciate it!"
