"If we are indeed going to search for Concillor Bhaine, we should go inform the rest of the Council before we depart," Harskgun added, repeating Val's suggestion.

Harskgun leads the rest of the newly-assembled group to speak to the Council about going into the hill to look for Khonnir.

At the council building, the group finds but one of the council's members: Dolga Freddert. She exchanges some pleasntries with Harskgun and Shadar, and introductions with the rest, before getting down to business. "You're here to go find Konnir? Excellent. I was hoping a solution to that problem would present itself.." She sighs. "I know rescuing Konnir is its own reward for these two, but for the rest of you... we're offering a reward of four thousand gold. Plus, we're keeping a scroll of resurrection handy in case he's dead. If he's not, well you can have that too. Also, if somebody manages to light the Torch again, there's another 4000 gold for that, but right now, what I care about is getting our wizard back.

As to how you get to the caves he was exploring, there's an underwater entrance to the caves connecting them to Weeping Pond." (DM's note: that's a little toxic pond in town. Drinking is a bad idea.) "Khonnir said he noticed a lot of human footprints on the banks of the pond- he was there the day the fire went out testing the water, to ensure it hadn't suddenly grown more toxic- and realized a large group of people had gone in but not come out. Seeing as you need to go underwater for that, Joram Kyte up at the temple of Brigh has offered to cast water breathing on any group going down there."

Dolga pauses and sighs. "Does anyone have any questions before departing?"

"When I was exploring the town yesterday, I recall mention of a 'purple-haired woman' who was here just before the the light went out, and then disappeared. I don't suppose anyone else saw her?"

Dolga sighs. "I've heard that rumor too. We can't go looking to arrest people on the basis of unusual hair color, otherwise every android in Torch would be in jail, to say nothing of the gnomes. That said... if you happen to find this individual under the Hill, and she does have something to do with the fire going out, she'll know a lot about what happened and why, I'd like her captured and questioned if possible."

"I'll ask her what she knows if we find her down their," Manizei nods. "And we will find the Councillor." She pause, glancing at the others.
"However ... I must ask if there is a way I could ... waive a share of those rewards. While I appreciate the gesture, I don't think I can actually accept it."

Enlali shook her head. "Seems pretty straight forward considering it's a total mystery." She grinned and scratched at her matter scalp.

(Well, that's a week. Moving on!)
On their way out, Dolga gives each party member a writ, good for a 20% discount on any supplies they might need to purchase, and (when they're finished shopping) directs to the Temple of Brigh, where they meet with Joram Kyte, the town's religious leader.

"Alright then. when you're ready, I'll cast water breathing on each of you, so you can get at those caves. Thanks to this metamagic rod here, it'll be good for six hours or so, so you may want to find your way back before those six hours are up. Nobody expects you to do this all in one go. You've probably heard, but little Val Baine has offered to let any group mounting expeditions under Black Hill to use the Foundry Inn as a place to rest between excursions. Just let me know when you're ready and we'll begin."

(As far as shops go, Dolga herself owns a smithy, the temple has a few things for sale, and there are a few other stores around as well)

Harskgun retrieves the rest of his armor, leaves some things in his room (like his holy text and metalworking tools), and purchases a waterproof bag (5 SP -> 4 SP) to hold other things. Following that, Harskgun waits for the others at the Temple of Brigh.

While she couldn't think of much that she might need, Enlali did procure some rope (hemp rope 1GP->80SP). Never know when you might need some rope. Eager yet slightly apprehensive, she heads to the Temple of Brigh. While she manages to stay optimistic, the gravity of Torch's situation tugs at her.

(Note: I intended for the above notation to represent the discount. If I was supposed to note something else, please let me know and I can make adjustments.)
