Catfights, dead ends and new leads

by Marya Silverstring

The others are looking for the wagons and what they can find over there
Meanwhile I chat a little with Carson
Oh Carson seems to be working with Silk... interesting
 
And the others are back again
Dragon flew towards the mountain range
Nim wants to go researching
 
Carson and me go back to the city and to keep an eye on the circusfolk
Dominik comes into the city fairly quickly
We give chase, me as a cat
Carson almost botches it and I rescure him by teleporting down and then brawling a street cat as a distraction
He then breaks off into the butcher shop that Dominik was standing in front
Meanwhile I continue to go after Dominik
He steps inside Mad Goose Liquor and comes out with alcohol
Then he seems to go back to the circus
There I cross paths with Carson and give him the sign to follow Dominik together with me
.....and he goes straight on toward the liquor store.....
 
I wait at the gate and keep an eye on Dominik and the circus
He seems to be sharing the alcohol
And nothing of note happens
Also Carson doesn't come by
The chase was really fun actually, but damn this waiting part sucks
Well they seem to have some kind of celebration for the dead down there
 
Then Sia comes and informs me that people are gathering in the tavern
Well.... so much for the chase~
Anyway, I get back and all the people are there
It seems they recruited a halfling huntress called Hildove or something like that
Though at least the group is mostly in agreement (except Sebastian / Melech who is actually iffy because of it), that we shouldn't pay her, since she volunteered
They also heard quite a lot of stories, it seems these creatures are oftentimes rather peaceful
Well the more you know
And Carson seems to be pretty..... lets not go into it
He actually namedropped Dummon's name before a random butcher~
Anyway, we agreed that he owes me one and then we're even
I already pretty much know what I want out of that
 
So in any case, we agreed that Melech and Nim go to the Bahamut temple
While the rest of us heads to the liquor store
 
The person in the liquor store gets my idea of more exlusive vintages and brings us to a backroom
And in short it seems like our circus leader made a deal with someone and is really hard to reach now
So underground deals going on, this lead is most likely dead after all
Carson goes early to get some fresh air
And directly after she tells us, that we should inform him that he should never pull shit like that with her sister again
So in short, we at least know that this tree won't jump, no matter how much we bark
Ah and also we "shouldn't make enemies in this town", which seems a given as I see it
After thanking her for her troubles we step out again
