it will be later.
Looking at Skaddor, visibly straining to muster enough power to cast a spell Archibald addresses Darian:
"Before we go, do you still have the rings i gave you?""Yes, why?""they are about to explode""Wha-"He was cut short by a metallic grinding sound followed by debris from an emerald ring becoming scattered and the Screaming of Skaddor. (spell reflected - 3d6=5,2,5: 12 damage. Stun:no. Mutation:yes(8) type:(92).)
"causing pain to yourself is not really what i had in mind, weakling""Eh, not as flashy as i would have hoped.""What? your tricks are getting dangerous. This time it hurt someone!""Yes yes, it hurt someone...""That is not a good thing!""Don't fret it. I'll make it up to him. Would you kindly bring the others to Rachel, and have her explain what she does.""Yes, of course."Meanwhile Schmied was using his magic to create a weapon for himself.
Spell normally not intended for targeted crafting. Expanding spell" New knowledge about his magic overcomes Schmied. The spell finishes and Schmied is now holding an
Ornamented Long Sword of Various Metals.
There was no trace left of the metal spike.
"now to you." he says as this frail looking old man lifts skaddor into the air.
"don't go and cast spells at my family. We are much more powerful than you might have guessed before deciding to attack Darian. Everyone in this house is protected. By me. Now, take this ring of regeneration. I'll just put it on your tab. And get those red spots on your face looked after." Archibald crushes a blue crystal in his fist and a portal opens beneath you.
The other part of your group meanwhile enters the central room of the building.
"So, this is my wife, Rachel. She is a Titleist. Rachel, won't you please explain what you d-"Suddenly a portal above Darian opens and Archibald and Skaddor fall through.
"G-get off me!""This is my wife and the old one's daughter, Rachel Grey. She-""I can talk for myself.""Hmpf.""I am a titleist. I can change your titles and unlock other abilities. If you do you will lose what your previous title has given you. That is unless you are very proficient in what it allowed you to do.""Or rather - the highest level of the title is lost, but the previous levels are still usable."Of course i will do this only for a nominal f-""cough""I mean a substantial-""cough cough""Actually saying cough doesn't work, you know. Do they work for us?""Oh, i think they will soon.""Great, another group i can't extor- I mean can't have to pay it's actual value.""Mommy, i want to sleep.""yes, sweetie. Your Group can either sleep or explore the city for a bit. What will it be. Also: i suggest you get rid of those rags and get some armor, or at least something that covers you. Did you travel through brambles or a stream of raw magic or something?""And she doesn't even know how right she is about that last one.""Since they are already in debt to us they can take some of our less ideal enchanted stuff from the cellar. Then again we have some problem with Vermin down there. And the stuff is sealed, so you need the Key of Unlocking from the backside first ..."A Choice - change titles, go to sleep, explore the town or secure the cellar.
