An Arrow Flash

At last, someone with red hair, thought Nicolai. Hopefully linked to the Vorloi’s murder.
Feldard tried hard to keep from smirking at hearing that Akarios was a red haired. After getting directions to the Inn from the Harbour Master, he nods to the man. “I’ll pass on the message.”
“I suggest we make our way to [...]

Searching For Akarios

“Time to pay a visit to Akarios then. At the docks you say? Good fortune master Aristo.” Miklos turned on his heel. “Lets go then. its our best lead before we tackle Zweis.”
Miklos lead the way to the docks. Maruc opened and closed his mouth, shrugged his shoulders and followed the the young Mage’s wake. [...]

A New Name

“There is a good chance that he is as innocent as he says he is. It would be appropriate to use a terrified shop keeper to act as a safe meeting point, and then steal his wares as well. Many may work on the docks, but I don’t think we’ll find much more there than [...]

Aristo the Wine Merchant, continued

Nicolai pushed his way to the fore.
“I take it from that you pay your dues to the Veiled Society. Now, we intend to set you free from them, bring them down. But we need you help. Last night they used your shop as a meeting point to arrange an ambush. What did you know of [...]

Aristo Has Had Enough

“I am coming too,” Feldard huffed. “You can’t just pass off the second rate wines to the dwarf. I ain’t about to out done by one such as he! And my cronas are just as good!”
Miklos wondered if the man had seen through his deception and was leading him into a trap. So with all [...]

To Aristo’s Cellar

“What! You cannot affort to shut your shop! I am here to buy cases!” Miklos was enjoying becoming outraged. “Yes, cases of your finest wines. Turn me away now and I will not return. Also, I will speak of this to my associates, who are highly placed within the city and news travels fast. You [...]

Wine Shopping

Miklos thought that if news travels fast around here the word of Nicolai’s treachery may have reached his ears and since he only saw he yesterday he may well recognised him. Miklos watched the man carefully. I wonder with a little deception he may accidentally reveal his links with the ‘veiled. However knowing what Nicolai [...]

Aristo the Wine Merchant

“Well met my friends. I have made contact with my church, however they cannot aid us with further information, but I’m sure they will aid us as far as their capacity allows. They do not control much influence within the city but I suspect that after these events have played out they will. Thank you [...]

Continuing the Investigation

“I suppose you’re telling us this now in hopes for protection from your old allies?” While Saeth took Nicholai’s confession to justify her earlier suspicions, she knew that they couldn’t just abandon him either, not with the way they were tangled up with the matter by now. In fact, the outcome of the battle would [...]

Nicolai’s Tale

Miklos went over the Traladarian priest and Nicolai, “Welcome back Nicolai! Good to see the colour in your cheeks again. Thats a marvelous elixir you have there Holy Acolyte. How much would a full flask be worth?”
Feldard too made his way over towards the Acolyte of the Traladarian Church. “Priest, there are others of our [...]
