IC: Head Like a Hole [LPF]

The waitress is able to quickly respond before having to scuttle off to another table. "Tryin' keep busy you know, with Jethro's bum leg holding us back at the farm. Sorry, but if you'll excuse me..." She offers a rushed but genuine smile before dashing away.

Rua'thil/Tamarak did not need a chair, comfortable enough for the dragon form to sit on the rear haunches like a dog would and their chest was still at height to match their companions at the table. With the waitress serving them but leaving quickly to be about her business that did not offer much in the way of news gathering from her.

"We are not sure how well we would do working the room to gather up the latest news and rumors. While we wait, Kuluil mayhap you could inconspicuously make a circuit of the room to overhear what else may be on the folks' minds... other than our arrival and appearance."

"Hincomspliclious is Kuluil's middle name," he hops down from the table and wanders out of the inn, announcing that, "Dat pint was too many. Ima go to da privy!"

Once outside he slips into the shadows and then slides back into the inn to spy on people's conversations.

Kuluil returns to the party after using the bathroom and doing a little information collecting. Aside from the local rumors and gossip, he shares the most notable topics from what he heard:

• There's a missing noble in the estates
• There's a pair of mysterious shipwrecks up the coast
• There's a dragon attacking ships from the glassblowers' guild

"Dem's some shipwrecks up da coast an' some missin' noble. As long as it ain't da fat man," he was referring to Mael Loïc, "Den wesa gonna get paid. Noboby being able ta lose dat fat man. Him wuz too big ta lose."

Evander adds on, "Also just heard from the table next to us that there's an up and coming group of dwarven adventurers that just set sail for Rhat'matanis. I haven't ventured too far out of Venza ever since I came here from Rorden."

Rua'thil/Tamarak took in the information and then shrugged, "Mayhap we should follow-up and see if these were local events or more regional news coming out of Venza. If these were issues from last week, one could assume they were advertised at the Inn and granted to other adventurers."

"However, if the noble missing was from here and they have not gone seeking assistance from those in the city..." They left the rest of her idea unsaid.

"Still, we do need to report back on our exploration first."
