Appreciate the drink! And more swears will always come in handy.

1 shilling and 20 pennies spent also. Malvor spends most of his time amongst the people talking and acting all priestly. He attempts to talk with Alexa about her business and what she intends to do once she gets to Bogenhafen. (gossip: 88)

Fluentcode/Caldera - obviously a few choice elven curses don't count for a great deal, but if the teaching of Eltharin is carried on as one of those "downtime" activities as the game goes on, I'll have no issues with it ultimately being bought as a Skill (100xp cost).

Fluentcode - the barkeep mentions that, being on a busy road as they are, they do get the occasional elf visiting. After a little pressing and memory jogging (5 pennies to refresh his memory) he vaguely recalls an elf roughly matching Ael'neras' description passing through. Ael'neras was apparently on a coach bound towards Bogenhafen, and spent the evening alone and keeping to himself. The barkeep recalls the elf seeming "distracted", as if his mind was very much on other things than what was going on in the inn ( "We 'ad a partic'ly fine minstrel in that night - Bretonnian fellow with a lute. Phillipe des-somethin-or-other. Very good 'e was, but your friend barely took notice of 'im all night, even when the whole room was singin' along to The Countess and the stableboy ". The elf left on the coach the next morning. Otherwise the barkeep doesn't remember anything noteworthy.

Elise politely declines the drink, but is happy to pass time chatting with Koeh. It seems that elves, while not "common" per se, are not an unusual sight in Bogenhafen - with so much of the towns business dedicated to trade and merchantile pursuits, and its geographical position on the road between Helmgart/Brettonia and Altdorf, and the accessibility of river raffic from Marienburg and Altdorf, its unsurprising that elven envoys from the Ulthuan and Marienburg trade houses often find reason to ply their trade in Bogehnafen. A couple of these tradehouses have offices in Bogenhafens riverside district (Haagens Wharf), and elven merchants and dealbrokers can, more often than not, be found in the Getreidehaus (also known as the "House of Karl", its a large warehouse on the docks where the majority of the towns trading is done, frequented by merchants, suppliers, boat captains, teamsters, stevedores and anyone else that might have an interest in buying, selling, transporting and/or storing trade goods. Describing Ael'neras rings no bells with her, but she points out that most of her time is spent travelling in the environs around Bogenhafen on her fathers business, rather than dealing with those that work within the town itself, so just because she doesn't know of him, doesn't mean he hasn't visited the town recently.

Ferrus/Shang - I reckon that when you want to approach other PCs for info, there wont be any need to roll for Gossip (just use that when approaching npc's). That being the case, simply respond/reveal as much info as you feel appropriate for your character. So Shang, Malvor the young priest-to-be has approached Alexa regarding her business in Bogenhafen - what does she tell him?

Shang - Alexa's over indulgence won't have any effect on her stats for the next day. She probably wakes up hungover and irritable, but the effect passes as the day wears on.

Ill take the decision of malvor approching Alexa before she starts to get really drunk. She lets him know about transporting the prisoner, but at this stage is unwilling to speak of her real motives for heading there, i expect malvor pics up that she isnt telling him everything.

Funny you should post that today - unfortunately I'm going to have to put this game on indefinite hold for the time being as work has gone mental and I've just not been able to allocate the time to posting (hence the long gap since we last posted, which I hoped was just going to prove to be a temporary glitch...) that I wanted to.

Sincere apologies to all that it hasn't worked out, hopefully at some point in the future I'll be able to get things going again, but as of now, I don't know when that'll be. :(

That's disappointing but understandable. Was hoping this one would go somewhere though!

Keep us posted if you do feel like picking it up again sometime.
