Time appears to be rapidly approaching
Mid Day
The Church [[Galia]]
"It's great to meet you... I'm Galia. I've been looking for divine help, see, and being a sorceress, such as I am, I thought that I should first turn to a priest of Boccob... can I consult you on the matter? Somewhere private?"
Examine the priest. Is it a man or a woman? Are they armed? Does he/she have any particular identifying features? Stuff like that.
The young woman smiles which stretches the distinctive scar on her cheek in an altogether strange, though not unpleasant, way. She seems to look your over for a few seconds, paying specific attention to your face, before replying.
"Of course, Mo. Though I am not yet a priest. Some would call me an acolyte but I plan on being in the priesthood soon. Just one final test and I'll be fully fledged. We could head to my home if you please. I have finished temple duty for the day."
The Sovereign Jester [[Riki]]
Riki looks for the prettiest girl in the bar.
The
prettiest girl in the bar appears to be on the arm of some sullen looking fellow with a rapier at his hip. She appears to be entreating him to perform some sort of trick or another. He appears to be somewhat injured however and in a rather foul mood though he is saying just enough to keep the girl enthralled. You'd rate her an 8/10.
The
second prettiest is by herself however. Granted, judging by the knife on the table in front of her and the wide berth all male patrons are giving her, she might not be the best choice. A solid 7/10.
The
third prettiest is a serving girl and seems the type to love attention. A 7/10, though not as good as the previous entry.
An empty field [[Ganron and Dereth]]
"That's quite good, actually. Again."
He took a different stance, and had him hold it. And then another. And another. This went on for some time, by the end of which, Ganron would likely be quite tired; the muscles used in farming are by no means the same as the ones used in swordplay; for that reason, more drills would also be necessary.
Though all the same, the boy would likely not need anywhere near as much training as some, being fit. Still...to get to a sufficient level would take time, unfortunately. Time they might not have...
Strangely the boy seems eager to continue for a longer time than most. He seems to have a strange amount of endurance. Still, a strange amount of endurance for an untrained swordsman is much less than for one like yourself. You barely even feel the strain as he pants.
"Can... Can I ask you something?"
Sneak into the chamber (taking 10) and investigate what the woman is doing.
Slipping past the woman, as only you can, you listen briefly to the woman talking to the children. Apparently you'll have about five minutes to search this place while she gives them a small lecture. Her office, if it could be called that, is rather poor for a contact of the thieves guild. In fact, it's rather poor for anyone. There is a small desk with several papers atop it, a dresser, a bed, and a potted plant that appears to be foreign to this region. Looking over the papers, quickly, you get the basic impression that a promising potential recruit has recently turned up to be something of a wash when it comes to following orders. Said recruit appears to be skilled in other areas however so they believe that pushing the ability to remember a simple sentence will be no problem. By your estimate you have a minute left.
