After escaping the spider-infested dwarf mines Nazom and Vinifera returned to the harbor town of Riva, along with Thorgrim, Boronian, and Mule-Mo.

Thorgrim and Boronian went home for the time being, and the two heros went on a shopping spree.

Such potions are rare and expensive, so regular shops don't sell them - barely anyone could afford one.

They tell you to head to the local Academy of Magic. Since you assisted them before in the troubles with chimera attacks in the surrounding area, they are willing to sell you two for the price of one.

It would be 50 Ducats.

Since you're a dwarf he shows various axes, bigger and smaller ones. There is also a morning star which is not easy to handle.

"A battle axe is very effective and deals a lot of damage. It's two-handed though, so you would not be able to use your shield."

Well, in the last adventure the heroes heard that the local dwarf mine had been attacked by orcs. They went there together with Thorgrim the dwarf and Boronian the hunter - and found out that there weren't just orcs there, but also spiders! They made it to the mushroom gardens of the mine were they saw a wizard and a mutated spider-halfbreed. There was a big sphere that might have been an emerald. But then the place collapsed - thought they managed to escape.

You enter the tavern "Riva Snuggery", it's a very homely little place that reminds you of a bit living room. There are trinkets everywhere, sitting on shelves and hanging off the ceiling. There aren't many customers around even though it is already quite late.

"Ale? That's 4 coppers for a tankerd" the waitress says and places a big one in front of you.

>>251
You remember indeed that you went to the wizard's tower more or less on their behest. They were the ones asking for help becaus there were chimeras outside of town.

She wags at her finger as if lecturing you. "There is nothing more important than the pursuit of knowledge! We have different classes for all kinds of people.. And all for a reasonable price!"

You see that many people use the chance to quickly move past her, now that she was busy talking to you.

"As for your Angrosho friend, what doe he look like? Also, a female dwarf is called an Angroshna."

The temple of Phex, god of trade and thieves alike, was well hidden in the town. Fina seemed to know the way well enough, leading you through several back alleys, when suddenly two of bandits appeared in front of you, blocking the way.

"Forgive me, gentlemen," the man with the eyepatch sneers, "it seems to me you have a nice lump of horse manure on your boot. Be careful not to slip on it."

You hear footsteps from behind. A powerful looking blond woman, and an elf are now cutting off your retreat. All four of them are well armed.

"Now let me be clear. I want the woman. She's a thief, and I will bring her to justice. Hand her over, and let's forget our meeting."

Fina had gotten pale and moved closer to Nazom. "Please... don't let them take me." she whimpered.

The man with the eyepatch looks over to his pal who was wearing a spear.

"Would you now? A good horse is easily worth 150 gold pieces. You don't look like you could afford that. Just safe yourself the money and hand her over. She is not worth your while."

>>356
"The bounty on her head is 40 gold pieces after all." said the tall woman n your back. "And the bounty was placed by a horse breeder who had several of his steeds stolen before."

"Hm..." I was suspicious of ehr story, but for now decided not to press her.

I return my attention to the bounty hunters.
"How 'bout this. 40 durats on her head and ther's four of you. How about 13 durats for the each of you?"

14 durats is my final offer. You'll still get more than the set bounty. that's 56 durats in total which is still more than the 40. Whenever you slit each others throats for the total afterwards that's none of my business."

He checks the coins, especially those that Vinifera had given him, as they seemed very old. But they were gold alright.

He sneered at the girl and gave a courteous bow. "Looks like it is your lucky day, thief." He hands the bounty letter over to Vinifera, then, upon his command, the four hunters depart.

Fina hugged both of you. "Thank you, oh, thank you! You won't regret it."
