Meeting with Tymon, the Kings Bard
Stella grins, first at Nic, then at the rest of you. “Well done Nic, not many do so well when matching wits against the Kings Bard. We would do well to remember he and his know our location, mutual benefit is our best defense.”
She looks toward the paper on the floor, then casts a spell, placing a finger to her lips and then pointing to her eyes with two fingers then to the general area around you. You all immediately understand she means to check the vicinity for hidden or invisible intruders. As one, the group sets up a march order. Kiara in front, then Bohrhorgen, Stella, Mantle, Nic, and Rowan in the rear. She gestures to the two Lizardmen to keep vigilance on the Mesa, then the rest of you sweep the interior as quietly as possible. After disposing of several mice and rats throughout the area, you all return to the Mesa, gathering your two scaly allies, closing the door and silently retreating to the room you sat with Tymon at. Stella casts another spell, and then turns to the group. “I feel a bit paranoid after speaking with him, any rodent in the area must be considered a spy and should be eradicated immediately.” She looks to Bohrhorgen, “this is your people’s area, we certainly want to avoid their attention so as to avoid conflict. As soon as we can, we should meet with your Uncle Dugan. I propose a two hour nap, which I can, through divine magic, give us all the benefit of a full nights sleep. We prepare our spells and abilities to deal with ghouls, I have quite a few which should be beneficial, then we seek out and negotiate the cannons I was tasked with procuring, then on to the Darakhul menace. Does anyone have anything to add?”
As a group you suddenly realize, Stella has leadership qualities you hadn’t seen her exercise before. It’s dawning on you that perhaps she has been slowly leading you all into becoming a powerful group, an entity to be reckoned with. “Perhaps you should come up with a name for yourselves, I can’t really sell your services to my captain without some sort of identity. Think about it and let me know.” She casts another spell and you all feel tired, like sleep would be welcome and refreshing. “Flak, would you mind standing guard?” The larger lizardman bows his head in acquiescence, Stella returns his bow and pulls out her bedroll, soon she is asleep 😴. Any questions directed at her are met with “After we rest, with our abilities replenished, we can make smarter choices.”
