Branner asked Daveth, while they were still by the smithy. "Hey, Mr. Daveth. Sir? I was wondering if I can maybe take a piece of gold there and get a hunting knife. If I get one now I may be able to get some meat for the house by tonight, at the latest by the end of the week."
''We already have knives, they'll have to do for now,'' Daveth said. [Remember, you all already have knives. You can buy your own equipment out of the wages you get paid. I still intend to give you all a bit of a payout soon, just to buy a few things.]
Branner nodded, then pocketed his knife, and looked up. He approached Daveth and said, "I'm not strong enough to lift the heavy equipment by the carpenters, and I can't haggle for the life of me. Would it be ok if I come with you to get some water instead? I can carry two buckets full and make more trips if the people back at the house needs more."
''Yea. Take Wolfker, and get what you can. The rest of you, go to the bakery, take this money. I'll head over to the carpenters, and see what I can find,'' Daveth said. ''And keep your eyes open for anything of interest. Once we've got some food and water in us, we'll be wanting to explore our new surroundings.'' OOC: Just a nudge to remind the rest of you @Vulpas, @Loldoom, @Mando, @Casavay, @DaKaptin, @torque As an aside, the known map thus far is available on the google sheet. More of the map will be filled in as characters move to explore.
OOC: Yeah sorry, kinda busy here. "Sure, I'll get the cheap type of bread, not so cheap it has rats in it though. Then again a rat might be a nice bonus!", the joke was barely funny, if at all, but anything to brighten the mood. Taking the money, Jürg led the way to the bake shop. He opened the door and stepped inside, giving the baker a hearty greeting: "Good morning to you sir! I and my compatriots merely wished to ask if you had bread for a few refugees from the cold outside world, have no worries we do have a small sum with which to pay. That said, we do need to feed the orphans and widows that we brought with us so anything you can spare for their wellbeing would be greatly appreciated and practically an offering to Ryha!" Hopefully they might get something extra if any of these bastards had a heart, though in more fiscal terms they'd probably need a loaf for every two heads. From his memory he calculated about how many people they had with them and would haggle for the corresponding amount of food. OOC: I'm not sure if it was ever said how many we actually have with us, but a loaf for every two people seems about right. If we have 20+ peeps that will probably be too expensive then we can shorten it to a 1:3 ratio.
Remembering the well as relatively close to the house they lived in, Branner waved at Wolfker (@Vulpas) and said, "I don't know how we'll get the water back from the well to the house, maybe we'll get lucky and find some empty buckets there? At least its pretty close to where we live." As he turned and began to leave for the well, he looked at the older man, "Shall we go?"
"I can help yeah Branner, Possibly we could get someone to make us a bucket or possibly ask the smith if he has any buckets he would be willing to trade. some gold for a bucket. That or we could possibly look for something else that could hold water like Skins that are designed to hold liquids." Wolfker said as he went with branner as he wen't "lets check the stores if we can find anything to carry the water with." Wolfker said first suggesting they go to the stores to find water first.
"After you then," Branner said as he followed Wolfker towards the stores, wondering if they'll be able to attain the water containers quickly.
@Vulpas Alma elma stops day dreaming and sees she was left behind then she kicks the dirt a little frustrated that they left her "hmpf fine ik what ill get with my 30 pieces .....i will ahhhhh geeeet" she walks around a bit and she finds herself walking into a radom shop that just so happens to sell beds "Sweet! I didnt even know i wanted one" she walks up to the clerk "ahhhh excuse me sir/ or madam i notice you have beds for sale?" She looks at thw beds their not in the best condition but its better than a floor
''And a fine day it is. Orphans you say? Tell you what, I can offer you an extra loaf, free of charge for every two you buy. They're 0.5 gold each. How many would you like?'' OOC: I left it open ended so that NPCs could be brought in. But we'll go with 20 as our number. & As the pair looked about for buckets, they came across a broken down cart at the side of the road. Inside were some partially shattered pots. They weren't ideal for carrying water...but they might just work. ''Beds? Why yes we do. Our bargain model starts at just fifty gold!''
