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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEpSUJ18Qv
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV9Hwtte3d
"Oh wow...so many shiny things..." Amber said softly as she looked at the crystals hanging and sitting around with widening eyes.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmpniK9rKk
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoTBSzSsB0
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0BMJKHijD
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNI1YkfBzgL
"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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnekNEGRQD2
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYr2ED3WY8
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D0m0ZmKNe
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jyxiqKfuZ
"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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXGcsoLqMZ
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIDi3OtFgI
"It looks well made for someone who sells it cheep." Faerthurin commented.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsDdYVCOqJ
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp3QPNyCp3
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGKvo7Rz1f
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75lX19VKzX
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxmhxigS9k
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6NE1WMVfh
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJKEMqZZ6Y
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRfyniPiPL
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?"613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGjszO6YG3
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVgNnV6kPI
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uewzm3paN
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9n78XVplD
"Could he be a half-breed?" Kross questioned.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBd0uIQyDk
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBBO5GI8YT
"Maybe, I know succubus, incubus and other creatures can use charm magic like that."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXuZ8IGxEH
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaWcVqvPw5
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJsRGLySQ4
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RR4QJaMGf
"Then what are you?" Faerthurin bluntly asked as she kept her distance, having folded up the dress and stored it in her pack.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnTFlyuINa
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2GkbZP2rx
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MgoCmVgkq
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKfw3mZnBM
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGNBoBDNdD
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvvF10r65b
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHGQHw9IGq
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnYQWkMTYr
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQibGasv4dD
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf0hHKMJd1
Faerthurin smirked. "Clever ranger, very clever." She said pleased and a bit impressed.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtp8VEBjO2
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLPbe9lQsf
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBNDN8V9Is
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhDyXpjps4
"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?"613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWEemYTADi
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnx9qG7O2H
"No idea." Jalerom looked over to Klarian. "Hey, do you have a little brother?"613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYBUzS2d3e
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9rvVDvu3s
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmF2eixPvV
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQEWBRPqAv
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWokwo1F84E
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkkm0VhSho
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOyJZCspkN
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9firegUpo
"So they took him to get you to pay your debt? Why haven't you been paying or have you?" Amber asked curiously.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1tUoyvJsg
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnHDAGsw7Z
"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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb0JvCUbV0
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfy1DVvx9VP
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiEhvCNnwc
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv6nYbHHdF
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnEDdnKjkN
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6mSCqsZnO
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjUVUMTEvG
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTTo0VFf8k
"I think we've found someone with a worse betting habit than Kross." Faerthurin dryly remarked.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ890hWX7wt4
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLY1G41uDQ
"Hey! I resent that comment." Kross huffed. "I haven't lost any money in any gambling, thank you very much."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeixgsDwtc
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTsTMUodzk
"Maybe not money but you do bet a lot when you take unneeded risks in battle." Faerthurin countered, locking a glare with Kross.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5l0dkxsdS
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWJyuVflqb
Oin listened and sighed, making his way over to where Jeminya had sat to observe and take things in. "Your plans after all this?"613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh85Mqiu0h
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoDlRRQ1BO
"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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqcINEdMN3
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNsazwnnId
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHYi5eba8L
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqGPffR1ei
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphMjOhcHGy
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAJg3KD75J
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6OCYzth6w
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjGZoTSsIW
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOc9qVhxzRF
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb3GtzFDMR
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKpZ6m4S8f
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZRDNK3uNe
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15mi9iYvbR
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmnwUCKYTA
"I say we help him out since he helped us out." Ivan stated with a nod.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweTztVfSTm
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF685pgigN6
"I suppose we could help him out, so long as we can get aid in return." Faerthurin said with an exhale.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsicfESGtUn
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPIpc9T7kE
Amber nodded, "as we aren't going to be arrested and caged again, I'm up to help fight for his brother's freedom."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQVdq72imk
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvlo3ryS3n
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCEZNRji7v
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo2VScLZyz
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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o3J9fUlBp
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsvx44qDd3
"Then it seems to be unanimous." Jeminya said as she stood, looking to Klarian. "We will help you with reuniting with your brother."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavBAJM4A6R
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWuXB5rl9q
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGguTxa3oYr
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPOyFXAHc6
"Bad for what?" Jeminya asked strongly as he tried to laugh it off.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMsldLV8h2
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68UjjKOJgW
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78C4lu4OBI
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8IfzzM0sK
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?"613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMRVPL0G4N
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpochDjG3D9
"Yup, likely so." Kross flatly replied.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60bRVotSk6
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsLpd8exAh
"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."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyFN2tsNJZ
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlIqyWlW74
Rose got off Shiloh and checked the second. "This one has three."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKBNB7c1zX
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUPKuHYd6M
Faerthurin checked the third. "This one has three as well."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfErGyTPxw
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHfM388o4a
Jeminya looked in the fourth. "This one has two beds in it."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwTnkFFPla
613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiWFxsEYjr
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.
