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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OfeDfkPzr
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92MqTUxRfQ
"Oh wow...so many shiny things..." Amber said softly as she looked at the crystals hanging and sitting around with widening eyes.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0ieoOqszJ
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBq4gDjq8qg
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjEpheGIsh
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡri2YRH2rqn
"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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiw6XUjwsl
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsZMdxGMwX
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruHC71FIoF
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8c1sQEqbV
"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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1KZHLhkYe
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hkr6iN1XQ
"It looks well made for someone who sells it cheep." Faerthurin commented.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5DFgVz5Yk
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQMOqnm20e
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26YKB8Tjct
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHFIYeGh5T
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthMo6nlU3o
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQJLQocpuc
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qN4LI1M23
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBugA9G4l2
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?"653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOssqVOwayI
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW1KquvZxJ
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigbP38S2jj
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeesrMobpuH
"Could he be a half-breed?" Kross questioned.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uDQ2h6COA
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEjgPtzPiU
"Maybe, I know succubus, incubus and other creatures can use charm magic like that."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5aJlyKFkb
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0yrYVC7HZ
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfq7v6wcwq
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIP6sFmdBL
"Then what are you?" Faerthurin bluntly asked as she kept her distance, having folded up the dress and stored it in her pack.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡameRphZPfL
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcbdhPTkmS
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOj8GnLesZ
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwQrZ0gRy5
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH17tMuSsbE
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsobDqwwjYI
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbpkTNWrsb
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7TSwQEslD
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpIFsTiq72
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAtQVy8XEG
Faerthurin smirked. "Clever ranger, very clever." She said pleased and a bit impressed.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj5ydG26HU
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27wX6WO3lx
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW84hiSj7s
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjk2lUq01Tl
"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?"653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnx5uaNmY3
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoMleDCfRa
"No idea." Jalerom looked over to Klarian. "Hey, do you have a little brother?"653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhvF46KNjv
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0Pz3QT6o1
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey0UBuAVTu
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcuwULAKJs
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0m2zKZEPh
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxLiL8Ld3J
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLwld4Jb1b
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu88XSQU31
"So they took him to get you to pay your debt? Why haven't you been paying or have you?" Amber asked curiously.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1mKwJOWRg
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A2ZvyRieo
"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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn87UXn3cai
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBUmiIb0vs
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A0GT2dZum
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAmEy86jxy
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvszq5YMaY
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gC55tdk4M
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhTJRJiIqg
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETjDjW3E5e
"I think we've found someone with a worse betting habit than Kross." Faerthurin dryly remarked.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rvigZBoUg
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbUYRtHFH9
"Hey! I resent that comment." Kross huffed. "I haven't lost any money in any gambling, thank you very much."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2ZkNOeHvA
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtgx8WtbVw
"Maybe not money but you do bet a lot when you take unneeded risks in battle." Faerthurin countered, locking a glare with Kross.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10o5TMMDIE
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9yssCQM6u
Oin listened and sighed, making his way over to where Jeminya had sat to observe and take things in. "Your plans after all this?"653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h1g8Fz1L5
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr21EVtG5O
"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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vgpqKLqKs
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yLG0McGZd
"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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysTkty2rjZ
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAeBKPzJG6
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD9qXJxBxk
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sihlleDbw
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05Eqzt7ujG
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56hmviwKHT
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiimUGLEmz
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2E97PDOSO
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ybExE9Xuf
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsLRh4tbvk
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaR4yw1NXN
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6gmVc1OsZ
"I say we help him out since he helped us out." Ivan stated with a nod.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn8qQDQrFo
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWhZNY4w7y
"I suppose we could help him out, so long as we can get aid in return." Faerthurin said with an exhale.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrIphDHEMd
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBATVfOtECo
Amber nodded, "as we aren't going to be arrested and caged again, I'm up to help fight for his brother's freedom."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCHi9E2wFf
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9CtCJlA8t
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjioFDpqUMs
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn9jeHHUXu
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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIV9purSg6G
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlg6f4sWp9
"Then it seems to be unanimous." Jeminya said as she stood, looking to Klarian. "We will help you with reuniting with your brother."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ1foFljWc
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VZCyoxAd2
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB64yG4LQI9
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvUMYbKLK3
"Bad for what?" Jeminya asked strongly as he tried to laugh it off.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72C4RBVg9f
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4oYniblL5
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.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0OHC8ET14
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtftW06sfi
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?"653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1r4yWnhEI
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFDdcyZ81o
"Yup, likely so." Kross flatly replied.653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpV9GcdOTNp
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhOvHXxwgI
"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."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyvEXbywdf
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6mtMrqxgQ
Rose got off Shiloh and checked the second. "This one has three."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnQB889WJm
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKZGSmXzAw
Faerthurin checked the third. "This one has three as well."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8CjJk2N5V
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdAozaXtG5
Jeminya looked in the fourth. "This one has two beds in it."653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAM63GhbzP
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA9Rw3bJYX
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.
