RE: The Ring Seekers gather to discuss events* *Tha'Azail leans in to listen to Jennara speak, nodding along with her and when she pauses to ask for input he clears his throat lightly and begins to speak*
That is more or less how I remember it, with a few details to add. I believe we had heard that the bard had come from Pt. Harbor and we were trying to decide which city to visit, there or Karthy. The young lady's dilemma with the grain helped us to decide to start with Pt. Harbor.
While in Pt. Harbor we did run into the gentlman meditating in the square. He was quick to explain the reason for his nudity and I am happy to say we clothed him and provided him coin to procure something more suitable to his tastes. He did have few things to say about his ring, other than it had been stolen. He said it had sentimental value over and above its magical properties, though I can not remember who gave it to him. He also said that contrary to what we thought, the ring did not provide the wearer with the ability to charm others. If memory serves me correctly, he said that the ring amplified the natural....talents....attributes of the wearer, or something like that.
We did go to Xeen's temple because of the bottles we found. We hoped that the bard had been noticed there. Because of both the cat people and the make-up we found, someone asked the xeenites about any recent masked balls. This line of questioning confirmed that someone fitting the bard's discription had been seen accompanied by at least one lady during or shortly after a masked ball. They were especially remembered because they were seen shortly before the temple's sacred font was stolen. Appearantly it was ripped right out of the wall.
Shortly thereafter we discovered the body of the captain, and began following that trail.
I would like to briefly recount the rings that we know of, in case I have missed something.
The first ring we know of belonged to the naked man. It helped amplify inherint....qualities for lack of a better word.
The second ring belongs to the dwarf in charge of oxen, I believe he was near Castle Raxwell. His ring helped to improve his eyesight.
The third ring belonged to the healer of Azatta, *frowns* unfortunately we do not know what her ring did. *sighs*
The fourth ring we know of belonged to the healer of Aragen, *shakes his head* again, we do not know what this ring did. *takes a steadying breath*
I propose that the last two rings also aid or amplify some quality of the wearer like the two rings whose use we do know.
That leaves 4 rings to be found...
I would like to mention something about the young ladies. Our quarry seems interested in comely young women. The priestess of Azatta that had a slight blemish was slain *grimaces*, not captured. I do not know how important this is, but believe it may be worth discussion.
*looks around the table*
Are there more details to add? *looks slightly at Weston* What should our next move be?
*leans back a little, awaiting a response*
