[Thu Jun 24 20:10:03 2004] : (3) Henry|lurking (whispering): I've just got equipment left to do... should I use the DMG money allotment, or something a bit lower?
[Thu Jun 24 20:10:03 2004] : (5) DM: You're standing outside the barrow. The Keeper (in his raven guise) can be seen flapping away in the distance.
[Thu Jun 24 20:10:18 2004] : (1) Huerney: Eric?
[Thu Jun 24 20:10:25 2004] : whispering to Henry|lurking, DMG amount is probably fine.

[Thu Jun 24 20:13:55 2004] : (4) Nerin: "its a close thing between them and here, but at least you can get a good meal down in the town"
[Thu Jun 24 20:14:24 2004] : (1) Huerney: "I don't know what they did to Ayhlanne to make her trust them so easily, that spooked me more than anything"
[Thu Jun 24 20:14:25 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "And they don't send clockwork killers in the middle of the night"
[Thu Jun 24 20:14:39 2004] : (1) Huerney: "She was never trusting, but took them at their word every time"
[Thu Jun 24 20:14:54 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "Maybe Ayhlanne is a bit more open to them than you?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:15:15 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Unlikely when she was distrustful of so many others"
[Thu Jun 24 20:15:57 2004] : (1) Huerney: "I don't like dealing with them, full stop. It always leaves me feeling that we'll owe them, and I don't want that"
[Thu Jun 24 20:16:16 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "Actually your distrust surprised me. Did you ever have bad experiences with them?"

[Thu Jun 24 20:17:05 2004] : (1) Huerney: "they're thieves and assasins hollyella, knowing what people are like is a bard's fort"
[Thu Jun 24 20:17:37 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "Not all thieves are inherently bad, Huerney"
[Thu Jun 24 20:17:59 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "And they certainly aren't all assassins"
[Thu Jun 24 20:18:17 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Stealing food for your starving family under a despotic ruler, i understand"
[Thu Jun 24 20:18:56 2004] : (1) Huerney: "But a thieves guild serves only one purpose, to

[Thu Jun 24 20:20:00 2004] : (1) Huerney: "I don't distrust you"
[Thu Jun 24 20:20:31 2004] : (1) Huerney: "But when you say friends, do you know them? Or are you making a value judgement just as I am?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:20:32 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "And you do realise I was and still am a member of that same guild?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:20:43 2004] : (5) DM: You're heading back to Port Hoon I assume?
[Thu Jun 24 20:20:50 2004] : (2) Hollyella: ooc Yep
[Thu Jun 24 20:21:18 2004] : (1) Huerney: "The guild exists to perpetuate thievery, and assasination"
[Thu Jun 24 20:21:41 2004] : (1) Huerney: "if you call the people who do those things friends then I think less of you"
[Thu Jun 24 20:21:42 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "I'm so happy you cleared that up for me"
[Thu Jun 24 20:21:49 2004] : ** (2) Hollyella sounds sarcastic **
[Thu Jun 24 20:22:30 2004] : (1) Huerney: "What do you expect me to feel towards them?"

[Thu Jun 24 20:25:48 2004] : ** (2) Hollyella looks in the direction of Huerney a lot, but still doesn't speak to him **
[Thu Jun 24 20:26:06 2004] : (1) Huerney: "I suppose we ought to stable the horses and head straight to the tower"
[Thu Jun 24 20:26:36 2004] : (4) Nerin: "Hmmm, not so sure I fancy lugging this body about without a horse"
[Thu Jun 24 20:26:36 2004] : ** (1) Huerney looks straight at Holy whenever she looks over **
[Thu Jun 24 20:26:59 2004] : (3) Henry|lurking (whispering): I seem to be ready... *checks* equipment, attacks, armour, weapons, skills, feats, saves, stats. Yup. Ready when you are.
[Thu Jun 24 20:27:11 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Umm, I'm not sure that we won't raise questions with the guard riding in with the body"
[Thu Jun 24 20:27:11 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "I see you point, Nerin"
[Thu Jun 24 20:27:19 2004] : whispering to Henry|lurking, Jump right in! However you like.
[Thu Jun 24 20:27:33 2004] : (4) Nerin: "Anyone got a large blanket?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:27:39 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "And we won't raise questions trying to park it somewhere?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:27:46 2004] : (1) Huerney: "MAybe stable ours, then lead yours to the tower?"

[Thu Jun 24 20:28:05 2004] : (5) Vyrith: "If you have no more need of my services I will take my leave."
[Thu Jun 24 20:28:11 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "Just don't ask me to help you carry it"
[Thu Jun 24 20:28:18 2004] : ** (4) Nerin tries to arrange the blanket over the body to look inconspicous **
[Thu Jun 24 20:28:24 2004] : (1) Huerney: "umm, would you remain until we get past the guards?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:28:36 2004] : (1) Huerney: "You are a face that they'll know at least"
[Thu Jun 24 20:28:40 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "Wont you come with us to report?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:29:10 2004] : (4) Nerin: "An independant voice would help"
[Thu Jun 24 20:29:12 2004] : (5) Vyrith: "I cannot help you in that respect. The guards are unlikely to recognize me."
[Thu Jun 24 20:29:58 2004] : ** (1) Huerney whispers something about strange shops and temples that are only there when you're looking for them **
[Thu Jun 24 20:30:18 2004] : (5) Vyrith: "No. I would rather not. I have aided you thus far as it was my duty. However, involving myself in the polictics of the Academy is... unwise for one such as myself."
[Thu Jun 24 20:30:32 2004] : ** (4) Nerin finds Vy's comment strange, but doesn't say anything **
[Thu Jun 24 20:30:54 2004] : (1) Huerney: "I guess if you think you can't aid us any further, you may as well go then"
[Thu Jun 24 20:31:06 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "If that's the way you feel, then so be it. But allow me to thank you for your help before you leave us"

[Thu Jun 24 20:31:15 2004] : (4) Nerin: "Thank you for you help, it was appreciated"
[Thu Jun 24 20:31:19 2004] : (5) Vyrith: "You may keep the horse."
[Thu Jun 24 20:31:23 2004] : ** (2) Hollyella smiles at Vyrith and shakes his hand **
[Thu Jun 24 20:31:40 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Yes, thanks for the help, when you turned that Mohrg thing was incredible"
[Thu Jun 24 20:31:49 2004] : (3) Marnak (whispering): Are they welcome in this town or not? It might affect my method of joining...
[Thu Jun 24 20:32:12 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Umm, we paid for it anyway, you can have it though if you want it, I think he likes you"
[Thu Jun 24 20:32:22 2004] : (5) Vyrith: He bows briefly. "It was a previledge to work with ones favoured by The Keeper.". Then turns and walks off (but not towards the gates.)
[Thu Jun 24 20:32:45 2004] : (1) Huerney: "I knew that there was something odd about him"
[Thu Jun 24 20:33:01 2004] : (4) Nerin: "Was he.....?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:33:01 2004] : (5) Vyrith: "No. A horse is too conspicuous. Though I thank you all the same." Walks off (again!)
[Thu Jun 24 20:33:12 2004] : (4) Nerin: ooc lol
[Thu Jun 24 20:33:24 2004] : (2) Hollyella: ooc LOL
[Thu Jun 24 20:33:31 2004] : whispering to Marnak, They're welcome to some extent. They just have a dead body to sneak past the guards.
[Thu Jun 24 20:33:55 2004] : ** (2) Hollyella looks at Vyrith as he disappears from sight **
[Thu Jun 24 20:34:24 2004] : (3) Marnak: from the other direction...
[Thu Jun 24 20:34:46 2004] : (3) Marnak: A man rides up on a nondescript brown horse, galloping as if the nine hells are on his heels
[Thu Jun 24 20:34:47 2004] : ** (2) Hollyella dismounts and stretches **
[Thu Jun 24 20:34:59 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "I could do with a walk after all that riding"

[Thu Jun 24 20:36:19 2004] : (4) Nerin: ooc competition?
[Thu Jun 24 20:36:24 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Err, are they?"

[Thu Jun 24 20:37:44 2004] : (2) Hollyella: "Ah, that explains it"
[Thu Jun 24 20:37:46 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Ohhhh, THEM"
[Thu Jun 24 20:37:55 2004] : (1) Huerney: "Why didn't you say so?"
[Thu Jun 24 20:37:58 2004] : (3) Marnak: ooc I don't want to break the DM's world for him.
