OH ACK SORRY))
The halfling gave the barkeep what she thought was a charming smile, but looked more like a mischievous grin. "Me? Never. What would make you think that?"
She stroked the sheep's wool, beaming at Techno. "Yes, it is! Snack would probably have been mutton if it weren't for me. Want to pet his wool?" -
The bartender frowned before responding "full up front, or no room." He said.
Tech immediately started petting the sheep while the human went to get the drinks, raising an eyebrow at Syllie
Luke jumped a little at the sudden voice, causing some of the older guards to snicker, before looking down at the moth "oh! Um? Hi?" He said nervously -
Sorrel smiles still, careful not to reveal his rows of sharp teeth. " my name is sorrel! My friend and I are with the adventurers guild, and we've been sent to help out with the dissapearences." He explains.
" you look worried, so I was wondering if you could give us a lead?" He asks curiously -
Syllie avoids looking directly at Tech at first, downing half of her drink, before finally speaking. She pulls a posting out of her bag, setting it on the bar in front of the half orc.
"So, this is what we're doing. We're investigating the missing children." She explains, focusing on sipping her drink afterwards, so she doesn't say more just yet. -
She face-planted on the wooden table, pulling her hood up and groaning as the stick bug vibed on her shoulder. "Fine. I'll just sleep in the stable if you have one," she grumbled. "How much for the coffee?"
Snack didn't take very kindly to being jostled around, mostly because it got in the way of the free attention he was getting from Tech. He bleated and clambered over to Techno's lap, affectionately head-butting his arm for more pets. -
Tech cuffed at the Sheep when it climbed into his lap, wrapping an arm around him to keep him from falling while he leaned over to look at the paper. "Hu. I see. Is that why your here too?" He asked the Spice, amused
Luke blinked "oh! Your from the guild! I'll be happy to help then!" He turned in the stool so that he was fully facing Sorrel. "We really don't have much to go on, the attacks only happen at night, and we don't have a lot of people with dark vision in town. They only take Children, and I think Lucia managed to get into a fight with one? She lives on the east side of town, I could take you to her if you want? -
Something flickers in the moths eyes but he nods eagerly. " yes please! Talking to someone whose killed one of the perpetrators wpuld be very helpful. I'm a druid, so if she's retained any pieces of it, I can use it to travel the rest." He explains even knowing exactly where to go.
-
Syllie doesn't seem to really acknowledge the other halfling, instead focusing on her drink. She downs the rest of it, keeping an eye out on Sorrel instead.
-
The girl peeked over at the paper. Actually, she had never heard of it until just then but was quickly absorbed in it. Missing children? A daring quest? 1000 pieces of gold? This sounded much more interesting than pickpocketing and petty thievery. Plus, it might help clear her name a little.
"Uhhh yes," she lied innocently, letting the stick bug crawl onto her arm and wander a little. "I imagine you intend to embark on this journey yourself? I'm Spice, by the way."
She shot the barkeep a grumpy look. "So how much is that coffee, huh? With a little milk, preferably." -
( nixie )
-
Luke nodded and then stood up, dropping some coins on the table before starting to walk out of the tavern "just uh. Fair warning? Lucia can be very...violent" he said
"2 copper." The bartender replied as Tech said "well if Sorrel is i am. Speaking of..." he proceeded to turn and stand, his intimidating stature contrasting with the sheep carefully held under one arm "where do you think your going?" The half ork called at Sorrel -
" to continue the investigation that Syllie and I started?" Sorrel says simply, hands on his hips, having been on his way to grab the half ling to let her know they'd have an excuse to know who and where Lucia was.
" If you're going to get I my way Tech, you can just go home." -
Syllie had noticed Sorrel getting up, and was already up, sighing at the half orc's antics.
She moves to toss a tip on the counter, before moving to walk over to where the moth is, shaking her head.
"We're going to find where those kids are. You're coming, right, Tech?" -
Spice flipped the coppers to the barkeep, looking back and forth between the two having a stand-off as she casually fourth-wheeled. "The missing kids quest, right?" she blurted out, instantly regretting her decision. "I'm going too. 1000 gold is an offer you just can't refuse, y'know?"
She pointed at Snack, making a beckoning motion with her hands. "I'll have him back, please." -
Trch narrowed his eyes again, shifting his gaze between his brother at Syllie before signing "alright, off we go" he said, reluctantly giving the sheep back to spice
