((Thanks.  :P))

Hm. It seems like it could work, maybe I just wasn't concentrating properly. Don't want to do try it in town, though.

Mier approaches the group of people and guards. He tries to act harmless and distracted.

He addresses one of the guards, "Heya! Your friend in the temple said that one of your higher ups might know a bit more about those statue things, totems, or whatever they are that you're looking for. I know someone who thinks he has heard of them before, and he asked me to leave the valley to look for more information. Any chance of a caravan going out soon?"


More bounty hunters...? No, they aren't dressed like outsiders. Villagefolk looking for a bit of extra pocketmoney-heh, more than a bit, really-, I suppose. Shouldn't be a problem as long as I'm not stupid. Now then, as long as the next wagon out of the valley doesn't leave for another two or three days, that other mage fellow should make it back in time.

Aile thanks the two profusely and takes down the note of the last words mentioned.

She then decides to support Thoki in whatever action he would do next.

Kaelan heads to the gem sellers, taking out the gems and using his power to increase their overall quality if he finds a secluded place on the way there.

Inser
You ignore the man's words are concentrate again.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You use 1 power, setting your total power to 3, and gain 3 other power. The man's expression blanks, before he collapses. You surmise that a void was created inside of his skull . . .

The men let you go and quickly rush to help their leader, shaking him. They do not (yet) know he is dead.


Trendam

You buy the potion. You then head towards where the caravan is supposed to arrive. Right now, there is nothing in the market square.


Mier

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The guard speaks nonchalantly,
"None that I heard of, save for the merchants' caravan... "


Kaelan

You duck into an abandoned cottage and quickly wrought magic.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You use up 3 power, much of it due to you not being able to control the leakage, but the gems do not change much. They do look slightly clearer than before. You then head towards a gem seller.

He seems to not be very interested in buying gems...

Inser rushed to the aid of the captain as well. He hadn't meant to take a lethal amount of the man's brain, but he wasn't going to regret that he did.
Try to imagine something appearing inside another man's arm

"Ah, but these aren't just any gems, my friend, they're Magic!"
Kaelan uses a small amount of power to make the gems glow slightly as he says the last word.

Mier inquires, "By any chance, do you know when it might be leaving?"

After receiving an answer, he turns to the two others who had been talking to the redscales-bounty hunters?-, asking, "I don't suppose either of you might know of a group leaving the valley before that, friends?"

I wouldn't mind travelling with valley folk or their friends. Less likely to cut my throat than some outsider merchants or mercenaries, at least.

"Unfortunately no. We just came from another village to look into how dangerous these totem things are before we settle. I'm sure it's nothing that we should be worrying about, but I don't want to live through that horror again."

Mier answered, "Ah, so you know something about the totems...?

Anyhow, I and another fellow I met yesterday were planning on leaving the valley to search for more information. If you are interested in them, you're welcome to tag along. I won't make a secret that I don't particularly trust any outsiders-no offense to you, friends," the last directed at the redscale guards.

Thoki had a feeling that something was up now. Not everyone was interested in learning about the totems. He bowed his head in apology. "I appreciate the offer, but I'd rather talk to someone official about this before I even think of traveling near one. If you happen to still be around after we're done I wouldn't mind viewing the sights before we pick a place to live."

"Reasonable enough. We're leaving around two days from now, if you're still interested."


Travelling, settling down? That's a bit odd. Oh well.


Mier begins to hum as he walks away, pulling his other apple from his pack and beginning to eat it. He wanders around town, looking for someone in need of help with a simple task or two.

Inser

Nothing happens. You use 1 power.

The men shake the leader urgently, but he is quite unresponsive. One of the men looks up and meets your eyes.


Kaelan

The gems indeed sparkle. The merchant arcs an eyebrow and offers to pay 300 for the lot.


Mier

"It's coming in a couple of days, and should leave a couple days after that."

You wander around town. It seems to be humming mostly smoothly, except that one of the larger houses has thick, black smoke leaking out of it. You notice that no-one else seems to be paying much attention to it. You sniff the air, but the smell is not that of burning wood, but more of a chemical, artificial smell.

"Is he alright?"
Keep trying to make something appear in one of their arms(not the captain).
