He says as they’re walking “There’s definitely something out there in the woods” May 02 20:52:48 Oh? May 02 20:52:50 There are carcasses when you go out that way. Mostly wild goats May 02 20:52:52 No-one ever see anything? May 02 20:54:23 * Molly is now known as Ned May 02 20:54:40 The odd drunk, but people just stay indoors May 02 20:55:56 How far out do people find the carcasses?

May 02 21:01:03 * Ned shakes his head May 02 21:01:14 whole perimeter seems like May 02 21:01:47 * Morgan nods, changing direction to head for the trees May 02 21:03:37 * Ned lets him go. The whole of the town is ringed by them, and it has that gloomy forest feel that he is so enamoured with May 02 21:04:02 * Morgan takes a moment to gather himself before searching with his magic May 02 21:05:52 *he feels the usual assortment of small and furry things, nothing consistent with a large goat or bigger May 02 21:07:34 * Morgan shrugs, heading back to the inn May 02 21:09:10 *there’s two giggling young women stood just inside the door May 02 21:09:40 * Morgan nods to them May 02 21:09:43 Ladies May 02 21:11:33 *Both of them look to be in their early twenties, and are almost identical. They’re very pretty, just the sort of girls Heinzharold would have once liked* May 02 21:12:05 1: Can we take- 2: your coat, Lord? May 02 21:12:32 No thanks, I've got some things in the pockets I'd like to keep close May 02 21:14:29 *The first smiles flirtily* We’d take good care, Lord May 02 21:14:56 I'm sure you would, but my answer remains May 02 21:15:46 2: What else can we do for you, Lord? May 02 21:16:05 If there's any chance of a cup of coffee, I'd be grateful May 02 21:18:07 *the first goes to do this. The second smiles* I could show you your room, Lord? May 02 21:18:23 * Morgan nods May 02 21:18:24 Please May 02 21:21:28 *she goes slowly up the stairs in front of him. Her aim is probably to have him staring at her bottom, but instead it’s the memory of following Molly in her wet shift up Catherine’s stairs that comes to mind May 02 21:21:45 * Morgan looks around May 02 21:23:49 *it’s very basic here, but she soon gets to a door and unlocks it* You’re in here, Lord May 02 21:24:54 * Morgan nods May 02 21:25:04 Thank you... does the inn get locked at night? May 02 21:26:56 Last thing at night, yes... but if you wanted anything after that, I can get it for you... *she smiles* May 02 21:27:50 Thats alright, I'm sure I can manage, thank you May 02 21:29:23 My sister and I are here all night, just at the end of the hall May 02 21:30:14 * Morgan nods May 02 21:30:15 Thank you May 02 21:32:28 * Ned lets him in, handing him the key. She makes sure her fingers brush his May 02 21:35:19 * Morgan takes it, moving into the room to look around May 02 21:37:25 *It’s been hastily cleaned, a little dusty in some places, but has a bed that looks freshly made May 02 21:38:58 Perfect, thank you May 02 21:40:00 *She nods* It should be a large enough bed, though you do seem quite big, Lord May 02 21:40:56 I've slept on worse, I'll manage May 02 21:41:24 *She giggles * yes, Lord May 02 21:42:11 Where will I find my associate? May 02 21:42:53 Next door left May 02 21:43:22 * Morgan nods May 02 21:43:25 Good, thank you May 02 21:45:01 *She nods, leaving* May 02 21:45:48 * Morgan closes the door before going to check the window May 02 21:46:21 *it’s not got a lock* May 02 21:46:55 * Morgan opens the window, sticking his head out to look at the walls and any drainpipes May 02 21:47:37 *with his climbing skills, he’s easily going to be able to get in and out* May 02 21:48:30 * Morgan nods, closing the window May 02 21:49:45 * Morgan has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) May 02 22:37:16 * Ned has quit (Read error: EOF from client)
