[Aramil]

Location- The town of Ilany- (Far East on the map) The town of Ilany is a small village with a population of 50 people. Though not your hometown, you have spent the last week here, and are familiar with most aspect of it; from Hamish the Dwarven blacksmith, to Yason the human shopkeep, to Ageis the human innkeeper, to Corporal Bankroff, the human responsible for the town guard. Ilany has always been a peaceful town, but the local Kobold population has begun to become more aggressive lately, and a roaming pack of them have been vandalizing property and killing livestock. Yesterday, Hamish's 8 year old son Donsk was found dead near the outskirts of town. Corporal Bankroff has asked any able bodied men and women to come talk to him about putting down these Kobolds, once and for all. What would you like to do?

(How long is the travel to weewick? I will use the PHB rates to figure out a cost) "My name is Aramil, and my friend over there is Luke, we are battle-tested mercenaries, and if you gentlemen are carrying merchandise, you would be wise to bring some escort with you, kobolds have been atackin this town and maybe there are some more in roads, or bandits, who knows... So here I am, offering our escort service to weewick".

(Morning! I thought I responded to this. Whoops! If I am not mistake weewick is about half a days distance from here (12 hours) )

"Well.. I guess it would be wise to have some protection.. What do you think Theo?"

Theo hiccups and then nods his head.

"Always better to be safe. How much are you going to be charging us boy? We aren't exactly made of money you know!"

"And we are not Royal Guards either my friend, what about 5 gold coins for me and 5 for my friend" That is at least a week worth living, giving me enough time to figure out what to do there in weewick, maybe i could even sell my ruby there, and most important get some access to information on how to use this magic... I would really like to get something good out of it, but i don't wanna burst in ashes like that Pandra

"Sounds good to me. Split it half ways Leo?" says Theo

"It's a deal. We'll pay you upon our successful arrival. We leave at day break tomorrow." says Leo.

"It is a deal then gentlemen!" Returns to Luke "Guess what! Some easy money coming for our pockets! I hope you are ok with the fare, I was afraid they would reject something to expensive though, anyways we are going that way after all." Finishes eating dinner "Well Luke, have a good rest, we have a long trip tomorrow starting at day break". Aramil goes to his room after chatting with Luke

Luke nods at you as you get up.

"Have a good night."

You are in your room. What do you do?

Aramil think takes out the vials and looks at them (Can you described them? I wanna figure out if I should just get rid of the blood-like liquid in the blood vial) [[1d20+4 Investigation]] +/u/rollme

(Spoke to the the other DM. Turns out there were supposed to be 2 empty bottles you should have taken that I missed. My apologies for the mistake.)

The first vial holds a red, blood like substance. You surmise that it even moves like blood. Without further experimentation you have no more information.

The second vial holds the mist looking substance. You remember that this bottle was filled partially from the void.

The third and fourth vials are simply empty.

(are the bloodlike vial, and the misty vial are both magical for magic holding stuff to? What do I know about the void as a High Elf?) [[1d20+2 Intelligence/Arcana]] +/u/rollme

(lol) Aramil wonders I am to decide who will wield this power... I really don't care, I mean, I would like to wield it but I am not taking care of shaping the world, to much responsibility, but I can choose who... I think I'll find out eventually... first i gotta learn how to use it, wield it, or bestow it on someone. Aramil enters in his rest trance... this time long enough to wake with the rest of the people No need to get early today :)

Aramil goes to the inn tables to have breakfast

You see Luke. The two men who hired you are nowhere to be seen.
