Sat Nov 21 19:15:46 1998 Elv {public msg} Malthias, I don't agree. Sat Nov 21 19:15:58 1998 Elv {public msg} I think this was seized from the alchemist. Sat Nov 21 19:16:16 1998 TSRO_Hawk {public msg} Elv> yes... Troll Warts, Black Gretchen Moss, & Witchroot.... the crone had said that there was Black Gretchen Moss in the well that's in this room (the kitchen?) Sat Nov 21 19:16:18 1998 Elv {public msg} Maybe he's alive somewhere, maybe he has a family somewhere too. Sat Nov 21 19:16:19 1998 Malthias {public msg} I doubt the Alchemist is alive... Sat Nov 21 19:16:46 1998 Elv {public msg} In that case, his family should receive this. Sat Nov 21 19:16:48 1998 Malthias {public msg} NO self respecting Hag would leave the owner of her home alive... Sat Nov 21 19:17:16 1998 Malthias {public msg} I would suspect he has none... why would he live in such a place... Sat Nov 21 19:17:20 1998 Elv {public msg} Maybe that thump we heard was the alchemist trying to alert us to the fact that he is, indeed, still alive? Sat Nov 21 19:17:33 1998 TSRO_Hawk {public msg} Elv> just a sec & I'll give you the descrip that the party got of the alchemist... Sat Nov 21 19:17:35 1998 Malthias {public msg} Or maybe it is more orcs... Sat Nov 21 19:17:48 1998 Elv {public msg} I think we should check his entire home before we make decisions. Sat Nov 21 19:17:57 1998 Malthias {public msg} well certainly... Sat Nov 21 19:18:46 1998 Elv {public msg} And if there are more orcs, we should take care of them too, won't you agree? ::smiles:: Sat Nov 21 19:18:48 1998 TSRO_Hawk {public msg} "He's a bit old & stuffy, & he's got more than a few marbles rolling around loose.

There's a water bucket with a 50' rope attached to it that sits on the lip of the well, but the bucket is too small for you to climb into, and the rope looks pretty old Sat Nov 21 19:25:53 1998 Sithihas {public msg} lets throw one of the NPC's in to see if its safe ;) Sat Nov 21 19:26:19 1998 Malthias {public msg} NAh you are going in ranger boy Sat Nov 21 19:26:32 1998 Malthias {public msg} i'm too valuable...

Sat Nov 21 19:43:49 1998 TSRO_Hawk {public msg} Ceira suggests that you dump them on the ground out past the moat so you can search them later if you need to Sat Nov 21 19:44:15 1998 TSRO_Hawk {public msg} ((however, Mal could be right as well....)) Sat Nov 21 19:44:27 1998 Elv {public msg} Let's put them in the hall.

Search them if you want to, and then we'll put them in the hall. Sat Nov 21 19:46:09 1998 Sithihas {public msg} i didnt say it was gonna smell good but they are all filthy creatures Sat Nov 21 19:46:24 1998 Sithihas {public msg} better to torch the diseased freaks Sat Nov 21 19:46:30 1998 Elv {public msg} I mean, you would need a real bonfire to burn four bodies, and the smoke would attract attention too. I'd say let's put them in the hall so as not to see them here. Sat Nov 21 19:46:39 1998 TSRO_Hawk {public msg} ((putting them in the hall isn't destroying them, so she'd search them later if you did that... if you were to throw them in the fire she insists on searching them first)) Sat Nov 21 19:47:00 1998 Elv {public msg} We'll decide later on what we do with the bodies. Is that all right with everyone?

Sat Nov 21 19:48:12 1998 Sithihas {action} searches any dead bodies that aint been searched Sat Nov 21 19:48:17 1998 Elv {public msg} I don't care one way or the other. They're dead, they can't hurt us. I'd rather have them outside if someone's upset with having them here, but not destroy it or start a fire or anything. Sat Nov 21 19:48:31 1998 Elv {public msg} Outside of this room, I mean. Sat Nov 21 19:49:02 1998 Malthias {public msg} Rahl you of all people should know better than that... dead bodies cry out for a necromancer's magic...
