Wind sidles up to the bar, and in a dwarvish accent recites the same thing he does every time, what he overheard sometime ago. “Al, ya old sot! How’s the leg? Find it yet? I’ll have the usual if ya don’t mind.” He pauses, then... slipping a gold piece across the bar and in silky, slimy voice, “I need... information.” Then in a dwarvish accent again, with disgust, “Ugh. The camps.”

In a wisper to wind
" Sir i don't aim to be rude but there are many camps all over. Please understand I aim to be as helpful as i can. If you mean the Tribes of Orcs they set camps all over. Yet as wonderers who never stay in one place its hard to find any certain one. If your looking for just one best take a ranger there good at finding hard trails to find. I would say also take a druid but most are dead, left this forsaken continent or in hidding these days. not that i blame them for leaving or hidding these days as tho i wish they were still hear. We could use one or two with our petting zoo/ monastery/ tour animal rides. We do lone out animals for adventures as well you see tho we want the animals in perfect heal as we can.
The 3 brothers zig zag and zoom do what they can but still the animals would do best if perhaps a druid would join in on the caretaking too.
If you know of one and i can give u a finders free.
Yet again there all kinds of camps out these days. With that im affraid im not much help in that regaurd at the moment.
( I think your referring to is the prison tho AL does not seam to ceatch on thats what you mean. Not out of trying to be disrespectful as he said but he maybe miss understanding what exactuly your looking for.)
So as this conversation continues. Varis is also now sitting at bar?
If so :
Lad you look like u got put through the ringger not that its any of my business.
You look like u need a stiff drink.
What are u having and are u wishing to open a tab too? We do have open rooms if you wish to stay as well this is a hotel."
What are the others of the party doing?

Callo joins the others, trying not to appear too distracted as she alternates her senses between the bar and her familiar.
This was an odd place indeed but the party could make no quick assumptions about its safety - perhaps all was peaceful here, or perhaps agents of the dragons watched here for the unwary.

Varis sits down distractedly next to Wind, hardly paying much attention to the conversation being struck up. The dwarven song had awakened within him his own song, images of his people happily singing in the shade of the trees, grass curling around their bare feet filling his mind. Yet in his distraction, in his lust, he knew it for the lie it was. Only sand remained, endless wasteland covering all including the bones of those most dear. And no song filled the air. Varis nearly jumped as he was brought back to the present moment at hand, looking over at the barkeep who had spoken to him.
"Do you have anything of a fine elvish make?"

By doing so we keep a bit of thiers left and alive. to honor the ones who made it snd the generations after who continue on. So yes lad we have some but please dont tell others i do cause then they will drink all til its gone. Ill be right back. "
Looking to a gnome
" Kid you have to look after bar. Til i get back. Do let them run u ragged. "

As Al is about to leave.
Callos bird does hear a mine cart at fast pase and goes to investigate. It sees 5 kobolts in green armor.
Speaking in draconic
" shit shit we got to tell AL he needs to know our patroll got attacked. We aren't going to be enough to deal with it. Its Als call..."
The 5 kobolts come dashing in on a large mine cart then rushing up in the caves that connect to the main hall that Al and the others are in.
" Al! Al! we got um a situation um we need you it cant wait its for the safty our guests. Its in the mines. We need all the back up we can get!
Blast it all to...
He looks at varis,wind given they are right at the bar
Not sure whats the issue but the Emrald palace can pay you for your time and survives if you and any of your comrades are battel ready."

As AL promised to fetch Varis a drink from his past, the images welled up once more in his mind. All dead. All of them, dead. Rage began to well up with him as his thoughts turned once more to the red army, and the dragon responsible. It was becoming difficult to think of anything else but revenge as the days passed by. So much time passed, and still the dragon lived. He needed to kill them all, to watch their life force drain away. Fingers balling into a fist as the thoughts consumed him, the sudden call for aid came at the perfect moment. Before Al had even finished, Varis was out of his chair, quarterstaff in hand.
"Take me there."

" Then lets use the employees expressway shale we. "
Al pulls a bottle on a shelf. Part of the shelf pops and a hidden door spings open to a shoot that leads someplace.
" No time like the present in you go lad if u know others to come we could use it. Kid new task full lock up and protect the guests as i would if i were in here. "
" yes sir you will need these. "
He hands AL a twin set of nice handaxes and a nice repearter crossbow along with a dwarf uglosh.
He then takes the weapons stashed under bar. Sir if i lock up you cant use normall ways back in.
Al hands him an earing.
" so u know its me to let us back in. "
" Understood sir happy hunting."
( Are the rest of team siging up for this or staying in the grand hall? )

Sven sees Varis get up with a rush and leave with Al. She's not far behind and has gathered what has happened. She immediately tries to catch up with Varis and decides to take up arms with him.
"Varis I am coming with you. I will not let you go alone in this!"

Wind will join right after making a break big whooshing sound after the doorway opens.

" Its going to go quite faster then you think do your best when you get out on other side to get out of the zone of incomming arrivals from the top. If your he sees the wolf. Oh um zig or zoom should have put him with our other amimals we keep for guests. Tho he looks house trained so on matter. Tho if he or she is comming too then i would caution they might get bit stuck cause we never have tried something like this as such with an animal before. So if you rub him down with a oil or the like he would slide right on down better yet if we are we should do it fast.
Omar ponders what he should do.
" I think the kid will need help up here. As much as i should go i worry trouble my occure if the Manager is gone too long with few to keep order up here.
Rose and the other small folk : Um mr Omar sir we can protect up here that way u can go too. "
he thinks to himself
" ok fine lets do this. "

Callo shakes her head. So much for subtlety and caution, it seems the plan was to barge head-first into trouble at every opportunity and hope to come out the other side.
There was a certain appeal to it. The enthusiasm and hope not yet crushed by generations of rule by the dragons. And besides it had worked for them so far...
(Callo joins the others)

So looking into the door there is a bobseld style carts and flat bed style.
Iy seams as tho there are ramps within the walls to get them back up to send them back down .
( Think like the ones at Disneyland, six flags ect. )
" They are built to lay on your back with someone behind you.
So we got two at a time 3 and u run risk of slowing too much.
Me and someone can go first then i can communicate with the kid to send next team.
The wolf can go on one of ours that has no outter shell used for boxes and cargo so i know it can take the weight. You should strap them as well as yourselfs in tho for its going to go very fast."

Callo will hang nearer the back as her ranged attacks give her some freedom with her options. She'll also recall her familiar.

Sven can go first. She's ready and becoming restless. She jumps in next to Al.

Varis nods back at Sven and the others as they follow along. He knew they were suppose to be cautious, that was the whole point of coming to the town, but this was where he felt most comfortable. Fighting every day to survive, it was just part of his nature now. He could only bury it so much. It didn't matter what lay in wait for them, or how many. They would stop it. As Sven gets on the cart with Al, Varis prepares to follow right behind them eager to get to a fight.
