If it had been, it would've made her dealings with him most...difficult. She responds to Kate with a warm smile, "Of course, just between us girls we can have a little chat. She waits for neither and walks directly into the kitchen scanning the room, she finds the teapot and pours each of them a cup of tea, serving both Kate and Callista. This came quite natural to her, from her days working in the kitchen of her mother's inn. She takes a seat next to Kate and places her hand over the woman's, in a comforting manner, "Take your time dear, and tell us what you wish to." She waits quietly until the woman is ready to tell her tale, watching her with sympathetic eyes.

"I'll go warn the Baron!" says Sally.
"Not without guards you won't!" replies Hazel as she first sits then slides off the bar to her feet, "It's going to be dangerous out there."
"Would some of you go with Sal to the Baron?" asks Kate then adds, "And the rest go to the basement? I'll show you the way."
OOC: Now I hush and let the PC's decide how to deal with what has suddenly turned into a very serious situation. Clearly, time is of the essence, though, so hurry!

"I'll go with you." Callista's general demeanor seems unaffected by the sudden chaos around her. "Guarding people is important." (pause) "Sometimes."bruce.desertrat wrote: ↑Mon Sep 07, 2020 12:31 am

OOC: Sorry boss, I assumed that was the direction you were going....
Magdal approached the kitchen door and is nearly knocked over by the unexpectedly appearing mini-Kate and whirls about as another mini-Kate. Confused and trying to follow all the shouts and exits, she spots Valerin and Callista about to escort Sally and figures since Valerin and Darian are friends he will likely join them, so she decides to accompany Eodrien. She swiftly draws her sword from the dove/hawk sheath and follows the woman.

Jameson
Already on his feet, Jameson steps toward Kate to follow her and make his way to the basement.
“So is the basement a different spot than the hole blocked by the casks?”

"The hole is in the basement floor." says Kate as she goes into the kitchen grabbing a metal mixing bowl and a large rolling pin, "Under the basement is another room that is part of the down under. That's where the Rats are, but they are supposed to be on the west side of the river. The Mousemen are on this side."
Hazel hands Kate a small bag saying, "Light from Sal."
Here the thread splits...like the party.
I'm making a DM decision to put Eodrien, Magdal, Jameson, Des, & Darrin/Kazan with Kate going to the basement, and Valerin, Callista and Frank with Sally going to warn the Baron.

Des grinned. “Well, I’ve never turned my back on trouble! Pleasure to meet you, Magdal. I’m Des.”Darithe wrote: ↑Wed Sep 02, 2020 11:06 pm Her heart beat in rhythm to the music, but it near stopped as she saw the big man with red hair enter the room. For several moments she thought, my da has found me instead of the other way around. Then she came to her senses realizing it just the weariness of the journey playing tricks on her mind or perhaps merely wishful thinking. She blinks several times looking at him...no he's too young, and several inches taller and sturdier of frame. But in her mind she thinks, am I perhaps not his only bastard? She had to know for sure, she had to see his face up close to see if she found any of Tyrus Haldeene there.
She rose and boldly walked up to the big man. "Sir you need to have a seat at my table. You see that's the table where they make all the gingers sit, lest the other patrons mistake us for a runaway kitchen fire." She grins up at him, then looks him over noting his armor and weapons, especially the big two handed axe. She brushes several wayward locks of red hair from face, "Now you look like a man prepared for trouble." She extends a slim hand to him, "Hi...I'm trouble...," flashing him a beguiling and mischievous smile, "But you can call me Magdal."
He took her hand firmly, but not overly so.
“And I’ve been considered a run away kitchen fire, too.”

OOC: Sorry. The system didn’t tell me there were replies. I responded just now.Darithe wrote: ↑Fri Sep 04, 2020 5:31 pm Magdal looks in the big man's face trying discern if she recognizes any of her father's features there, but gives up as the man merely looks back in silence. And there was something a bit unnerving about that look. She wasn't sure if he was searching for words, getting ready to hit her with his axe, or planning on making her his next meal. One could never be too sure about mountain folk, or so she had heard, and his visage screamed that background from the ceiling, which his head nearly scraped to the floor which creaked uneasily as he shifted his weight. But never let it be said that Magdal Haldeene was easily discouraged. Undaunted, she grasped his big hand with her much smaller offered one and attempted to lead him to her table, chattering away all the while. If he follows, she'll offer him a seat next to her at her table. If not, she will shrug her shoulders and return to her table and vegetable stew.
She listens to Mr. Bowkeeper's request with some apprehension. She was still tired from her trip here, though the stew, bread and tea, helped to replenish some of that energy. But Mama Dunville had taught her never to refuse a person help if she had the opportunity to offer it. And even though she didn't bear her surname, Mama Dunville had also not raised any fools, red haired or not. Well there was her brother Mic, who was a bit on the slow side. But they didn't hold that against him. He was male after all and slowness was to be expected.
No, she needed more information before she could agree to help the man. He might want them to do something untoward or even illegal. So she listened but was noncommittal until she learned the exact nature of what needed done. She waited politely until he was ready to explain further and decided to meet some of the other people the gentleman was talking to. She looked at woman with the scar and offered her a friendly smile, though she seemed intent on the man's words so Magdal didn't interrupt and walked on toward the bar.
She saw the tall dark haired woman there speaking to Kate and didn't want to interrupt their private conversation so she merely smiled and waved at the woman before moving on to the other two gentlemen at the bar. She had seen one of the gentlemen reading a book and there were few things in life Magdal loved more than books. She couldn't remember where she read it, but one writer had said that reading and dancing were the two things in life that do no harm to the world. And the young ranger loved doing both. However, her small town had an extreme dearth of available books so her love was mostly unrequited. Perhaps the young man might lend her his book when he'd finished. The other man was seated on one side of the reading man so Magdal took the seat on his other side. She looks at his dog and then peers curiously at the book he is reading before saying, "You know, I've heard it said that outside of a dog, books are man's best friend." She pauses, blinking her large green eyes several times before adding, "Of course, inside of a dog, its much too dark to read," she smiled winsomely. She offers her hand, "Hi I'm Magdal. Might I ask what you are reading so intently?"
