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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUhsj6bZma
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHcyOmjs4N
"Oh wow...so many shiny things..." Amber said softly as she looked at the crystals hanging and sitting around with widening eyes.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2iCB8BEmd
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtKIeCqQ9w
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV86RfDb7Sd
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HxvkkHlX9
"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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMymaaHWcG
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHJ4G725rZ
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwvf6F7tQh
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGhbVBBg0I
"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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nzxXoGwQd
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxfNleEXmx
"It looks well made for someone who sells it cheep." Faerthurin commented.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFp5jf0DV6
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDexNjO7Fe4
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lMfTfn43w
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQxL6h9mDl
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLHToK49dX
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cNw2ZIzBO
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeLLahpT8c
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OqQUG3RP9
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?"542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy1f7f3OfW
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRIweEZM8V
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HxqtbgwrR
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiyKgFdEJK
"Could he be a half-breed?" Kross questioned.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkggQdi01Nx
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSXUFZNd9H
"Maybe, I know succubus, incubus and other creatures can use charm magic like that."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT72MOcznP
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB33WcJoMHb
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58QwcrcYXi
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1iIR29N8f
"Then what are you?" Faerthurin bluntly asked as she kept her distance, having folded up the dress and stored it in her pack.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBiTQW8Bed
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqOKqWEmaR
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPjRTx8pHM
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEX4d1XMWi
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzXb9rxDhb
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6R8mYfUsk
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpg1WjigAms
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0NstqRify
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsuCmm2Nsp
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49QCg7meWW
Faerthurin smirked. "Clever ranger, very clever." She said pleased and a bit impressed.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSX1WU0xMb
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8mLTb9aJ0
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD24TF835uD
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFHO5z7WNG
"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?"542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg6vOs1wWC
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CPktzjMgK
"No idea." Jalerom looked over to Klarian. "Hey, do you have a little brother?"542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnEfPQ1GOS
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eIk8xiJNn
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiDLC9yuRr
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDJHe1McZ6
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWZgely7Rk
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h8pS8dm7x
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yhaBhCdXw
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8yLJnjgDV
"So they took him to get you to pay your debt? Why haven't you been paying or have you?" Amber asked curiously.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbPkOeCRli
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0JnVDzSUO
"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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj2VwO2IUz
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqioE7bSqeu
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrR6k4jyumw
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlitlTF2NZ
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mPiZf5Oop
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXN5phhapk
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9v73Rf3Cy
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsd9cu55s42
"I think we've found someone with a worse betting habit than Kross." Faerthurin dryly remarked.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExocH9xdRN
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrMGcTU4b4
"Hey! I resent that comment." Kross huffed. "I haven't lost any money in any gambling, thank you very much."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdgwF2yYQu
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WmRh6FNjN
"Maybe not money but you do bet a lot when you take unneeded risks in battle." Faerthurin countered, locking a glare with Kross.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48F36z7qwz
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehvKkTUCar
Oin listened and sighed, making his way over to where Jeminya had sat to observe and take things in. "Your plans after all this?"542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1aS4MNyIS
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA4UCUjpdP
"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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVXPJkVn71
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFnN7VIg9g
"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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS8MSwqtuc
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zkLUPy9Qq
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF9Oyei4TE
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYDYqySHUW
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWu5WDPtH7
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxasxXwHhIE
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh70viXIEg
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPc4iKhIJj
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFnGKWsXK2
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZaYTnlrNP
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHKRzGK9Ti
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXI0V17r8D
"I say we help him out since he helped us out." Ivan stated with a nod.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lcGchKo6o
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrooQ0k1EzC
"I suppose we could help him out, so long as we can get aid in return." Faerthurin said with an exhale.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i6kaQkoGP
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeOA7Yo9ID
Amber nodded, "as we aren't going to be arrested and caged again, I'm up to help fight for his brother's freedom."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb4kZk78FY
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B0FrTbTbC
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDkuVOWBSV
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PoaodwJnw
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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCTLw5HXAU
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkQEQATmAg
"Then it seems to be unanimous." Jeminya said as she stood, looking to Klarian. "We will help you with reuniting with your brother."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjgOZprQtZ
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY9M8wW8t5
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUqzZqffu2
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aJ14c94M1
"Bad for what?" Jeminya asked strongly as he tried to laugh it off.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRGmLZ07In
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZciBYXnmHH
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.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwSVIuZZKj
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYKMBsOg7h
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?"542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUOZhDjMZa
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20sfFXJYAH
"Yup, likely so." Kross flatly replied.542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnyVcsODLY
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqXrLXueOG
"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."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0QD8qSmzi
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1oLemzaMK
Rose got off Shiloh and checked the second. "This one has three."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoTT3zAXms
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0GzHfGME7
Faerthurin checked the third. "This one has three as well."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBCHKcfnW1
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFiZLMSyX1
Jeminya looked in the fourth. "This one has two beds in it."542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERCpYRFVEJ
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfhTkvtPBH
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.
