They reached the top and he opened the door to a large room which was his, filled with some lovely crystals setting just so, allowing the sunlight to dance through them and cast a colorful light on the surface below them. "Welcome to my humble abode." He smoothly said as they entered.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYtiq9fsap
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVwJz7rmIS
"Oh wow...so many shiny things..." Amber said softly as she looked at the crystals hanging and sitting around with widening eyes.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG521U02yA
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeKzD8CLp5
Faerthurin blinked and looked around confused. "Um...how did I get here?" she looked down at the dress. "And where did I get this dress from?" she asked with her mind feeling foggy in spots.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKn7Te0qnF
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjfrpQmRB6
"It was given to you by Klarian. We," Oin motioned to himself, Jalerom and Kross, "think he used a charm spell, something like the Nighttwist. Also he got that dress likely from the vendor who wanted Kross."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jbpwE9xbx
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVodBAELTM
Her face fell and twisted with disgust at the thought of what made the thread used for the material. "What is this made of?" she uneasily inquired.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2lUSK0A3O
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGJ4ubigmB
"Don't worry, it's not saurian or dragon or anything else of the sort." Klarian spoke calmly in a matter-of-fact way while he walked over and flopped on his sofa. "It's made of plants. She sells clothing and accessories made from creatures but she also makes less expensive items from plant fiber."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBIPOBwraQ
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7YzgGmKTq
"It looks well made for someone who sells it cheep." Faerthurin commented.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL8kGjUK2E
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsNJHUBBXd
"She wouldn't be caught dead selling anything that was low quality, no matter what it's made from." Klarian pointed out as the others came around that had been under his charm spell. He pushed some short orange hair back that had come loose from his ponytail out of his sky blue eyes.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvXJMEWlgD
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8NW0xgHYb
"So why did you help us and lead us here? You have to have a motive." Oin flatly stated in his stern tone while watching the man.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9W9cwx1Yq
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOCehe58br
"I already told you my motive." He groaned with a roll of his eyes. "I wanted some company for a little while and I said I would take you to meet the leadership by the morning's light, as their abode isn't too far from mine." Klarian said innocently as he looked to Oin. "Don't you trust a kind stranger?" Oin didn't answer this, only folded his arms and stared Klarian down who shivered before diverting his eyes away from the dwarf.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EmEYe67l0
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiI387uo2QQ
Faerthurin looked the place over, taking in what he had before looking Klarian over while mentally going through what she had researched. Kross looked over to the elf sorceress and made his way over, carrying a unique clock in his hands he had picked up. "Something on your mind?"490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGhulOGKcE
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9AjnRkkEb
"He's obviously a dragon, possibly part of the race we're looking for as they tend to be more drawn to crystals and stained glass...but I don't recall any information on them being able to use charm spells like what he used." She quietly answered with her sights staying on the relaxing man.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSKz1aepxn
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iGyeclwq9
"Could he be a half-breed?" Kross questioned.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM75Xmkq3c
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uVwMnyXtM
"Maybe, I know succubus, incubus and other creatures can use charm magic like that."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TuqxgtziA
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIo9WI8MUl
Klarian inhaled deeply with his head leaned back, eyes closed as he exhaled. "I can hear you two so just ask~" he calmly sang before lifting his head and opening his eyes, motioning for the pair to come over. "I'm not gonna bite because you ask me anything."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bw8Vwij6R
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJePcO0C0N
"Then what are you?" Faerthurin bluntly asked as she kept her distance, having folded up the dress and stored it in her pack.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMr4UVUUsC
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlnZANgRtv
Klarian rubbed his chin in thought. "Well I'm not really a half-breed as I'm not equally half and half." He began with a slight slyness to his tone. "I could be mostly one thing and a third another."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0nARFV9AC
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRuic8QiDY
Kross thought some. "Hmm it seems he may not be what he seems so we should probably just leave." He shrugged, "I mean, we have been here a while after all and all he wanted was company for a bit." He stretched and sighed with his tone being casual. "All he did was get lucky with that weak spell of his." He turned on his heel, making his way towards the door. "It wasn't nearly as strong as that tree a time back."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HQHbz6cPV
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6174F71JR
Klarian's jaw fell for a moment before he quickly closed it and stood. "I'll have you know that I may be a third incubus but I am dang good with my charm spells!" he huffed, snorting a couple small sparks as his hands clinched snugly into fists. "You can't even cast magic as an archer." He pointed at Kross with his eyes set on the archer. "I bet you haven't even studied magic."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbpNMia8NZ
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DEVgc1F48
Kross turned giving a small bow while sliding the clock back in its place, smirking. "And that, is how you get an answer on race."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSJZ441eUt
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtG4dmYGs6
Faerthurin smirked. "Clever ranger, very clever." She said pleased and a bit impressed.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4ajsIOTcX
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXLT60saPD
During this Oin had been inspecting a desk area but didn't find much of interest, Rose had found an interesting book on dragons titled 'The Beginner's Introduction to Dragon Culture' and had flipped through it. She had looked up during the conversation between the trio and noticed the sparks. Jalerom had found and was looking over a picture after having put down scribbled notes involving money. "Hmm..." Ivan came over with Amber who was resisting to claim one of the collected treasures for a souvenir.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMFhbVRMA1
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAO4oVFbIS
"What you looking at?" Ivan looked at the picture of two males, looking like brothers. "Oh they look similar. Where do you think the younger brother is?"490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBghmgBRS1
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxl1hStsy7
"No idea." Jalerom looked over to Klarian. "Hey, do you have a little brother?"490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXUaUVX22h
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFS4CVFRm9
The man got up and made his way over upon seeing the rogue with the picture frame. "Heh, that's an interesting question to ask someone but as you can see, no siblings here." He reached out and plucked the photograph out of Jalerom's hands. "Pictures are misleading sometimes."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrj3NBn1fk
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMf1d8oXVT
Ivan, Jalerom and Amber looked to him disbelieving of that statement. "So how come he looks like you? There looks to be a resemblance." Ivan prodded gently. "We all have family so hold old is your brother? You both look happy in that photo."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrnfTAyxaf
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooknj5o1xC
Klarian inhaled and sighed as he looked to the picture and nodded. "Yea, we were until I messed up." He set the frame down on the stand it had been on. "He's currently in the guards care because of me not controlling my betting habit and not being able to fork up the coin I owe." He somberly said.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXT9ircVrTt
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtaox5ndcb
"So they took him to get you to pay your debt? Why haven't you been paying or have you?" Amber asked curiously.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdgllDCHwK
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFuGMoT7q8
"I've...sort of been making payments. I own this place and make some sales but when your alcohol prices go up, more of the money earned has to go to keeping it running and the lights on." He looked to Amber. "I can't raise drink prices too much or people will stop coming and then I'll really be in trouble."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFaeL51qNH
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oY3brZ7pq
"That's not good. How much do you owe?" Jalerom inquired as he looked to the photo. "Maybe we can help? I mean, we do have a talented bard." Ivan nodded proudly.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqj8WcGQvG
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Iqy5AR6ZK
"But wait, you can use song to so why don't you use that to get money? Like singing and see if any patrons would pay you as they do bards?" Amber questioned with that realization.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTApIx17mcD
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBU8yMjky3
Klarian snickered and moved back over to the sofa and sat. "Yea right, like me trying to enchant them is going to get me money. If they resist it then they aren't gonna give up the dough. Besides," he sighed, "I'm roughly..." he rubbed the back of his neck, "a few thousand in debt to the battle grounds owner."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uweA3e6kX
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGVUoqv9FA
"I think we've found someone with a worse betting habit than Kross." Faerthurin dryly remarked.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY2gftZM3s
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoo9B2MPBv
"Hey! I resent that comment." Kross huffed. "I haven't lost any money in any gambling, thank you very much."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnpl6hvg5E
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk59cyx4rb6
"Maybe not money but you do bet a lot when you take unneeded risks in battle." Faerthurin countered, locking a glare with Kross.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAIfmfN5uo
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzRlkZDH0d
Oin listened and sighed, making his way over to where Jeminya had sat to observe and take things in. "Your plans after all this?"490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3pEOMuGB4
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDT59A90un
"Our mission here is to meet with the leadership of the yellow dragons in order to ask for aid in defeating my sister, nothing more. But I also don't feel right about us leaving a family broken like this...even if it is his own fault."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13Dqv6UdXP
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt20tK8BHeF
"Hey!" Klarian stood quickly. "I didn't put him up as collateral! I put up my home and the guards decided to take him instead." He snapped, baring a bit of fang as small patches of yellow showed on his hands and peeking up from under his scarf on his neck. "I don't know why they took him but I wouldn't put him up to settle any debt that is my own doing." He growled with his eyes locked with Jeminya's as the room's atmosphere began to tense.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyBGk3UtLD
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjcLZtvbmQ
The dwarfen cleric coughed, breaking into the tension. "We do have a time restraint even if we don't know exactly how much is left." Oin said as he pondered this over.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmClVgL5mim
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDBULnxKAP
Silence filled the room for a few moments up to a minute before it was broken. "I say we help him. Maybe there's some way we can clear his debt and reunite him with his brother." Kross suggested.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5a8qUmGCJ7
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6McaxBNot
Faerthurin placed a hand on her hip as the other motioned in the air. "How do you plan on us doing that? Ivan's good but it would take days if not longer of him preforming at his best to possibly make a dent in this morons more than a thousand gold debt."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKcNxQm4sn
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7nP6KiiDu
Kross shook his head. "No, no he said it was at a battle grounds. Maybe they'll let us show off our skill and if we're good enough, then his brother gets released along with the removal of his debts."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJjXMCD9fq
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzAASAzfqC
Quietness fell once more as this was considered before Jalerom eventually spoke up. "That would make sense due to people making bets on who would win. We're pretty strong and could at least check it out on how the set up is here." He looked around, "um that is if everyone else agrees to us helping him out."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x1YIMv31b
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1xfNiC91l
"I say we help him out since he helped us out." Ivan stated with a nod.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0D4YRtzjE
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4iw2FEnt2
"I suppose we could help him out, so long as we can get aid in return." Faerthurin said with an exhale.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyPxnuZ66r
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHBMLXO4AX
Amber nodded, "as we aren't going to be arrested and caged again, I'm up to help fight for his brother's freedom."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUHgsAFuNy
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow9sJm4dh9
Rose had been staying quiet and looked down to Shiloh. "Depending on what we are fighting and how far it is required to go will depend on if I'm in or not on this." She flatly explained with some uncertainty.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZVV18PbiN
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosvEyiso42
Oin sighed nodding. "I will help as well. It will be good for our skills and it will help someone who could be an alley in the future."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FrsbRRlyU
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrPrje8UCi
"Then it seems to be unanimous." Jeminya said as she stood, looking to Klarian. "We will help you with reuniting with your brother."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggFV85hxYk
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9UNJ2NBkw
Klarian stared at them all shocked. "I didn't expect this at all. And you all aren't going to want money back in return?" they shook their heads no. "This...man now I feel bad for-" he stopped himself before completing that sentence.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlDwIOYC8B
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJufRBZhFHS
"Bad for what?" Jeminya asked strongly as he tried to laugh it off.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuCfZUXL1X
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVLj88Oe4F
Klarian waved a hand through the air to try dismissing it. "Oh nothing, nothing! Just a stray thought!" he gulped as the eyes on him did not look the least bit impressed or swayed. "Uh..." he stood and stretched, giving a yawn. "Man would you look at the time. We should really sleep if we are to wake early and get to the battle grounds to put that plan into motion, night!" quickly he moved to push everyone out of his room so they could go to the four other rooms.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51D3ibPkJi
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2feZHjPnGX
Once they were out and the door was shut, Jalerom looked back at the door with a straight eye look. "He was planning on selling us out at the battle grounds to the owner wasn't he?"490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIwADHzG00
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWucMQiiHX
"Yup, likely so." Kross flatly replied.490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLQmyVbuYa
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTinB23ndZL
"Of course with our luck." Jalerom sighed. "So...how are we splitting up with rooms?" he moved to look inside one of the four. "This one has four beds in it."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIPECwia5D
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbQCRrr6C7
Rose got off Shiloh and checked the second. "This one has three."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8fjn8rryC
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uHkohmzqp
Faerthurin checked the third. "This one has three as well."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg69S7eigPu
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq5SuB0E10
Jeminya looked in the fourth. "This one has two beds in it."490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUggTy4HJ5
490Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxl6Qf2xiU
Discussion took place and the group split up to go to their agreed upon room assignments, hoping for a good rest up before the morning.
