A phoenix interlude (Surraruthru)

[Anastasia]

"Ooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!" Kascha groans, twitching beforre slowly picking herself up. Coins are embedded into her face, falling away with a soft clang as they hit the ground. She looks fine after that, shaking her head and gathering up her ioun stones. "Um, I wanted to give you something for your hoard."

The DC of that check was 10. Dick move, Kobot.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well... I will certainly accept your gift. Though I will have to find one for you soon..."

[Anastasia]

She takes out a platinum coin.

"It's not much, but every hoard's built one coin at a time," she says, passing it over to him.

Loot post.

[Iron Dragoon]

Takes it and stares at it covetously.

"This is a great gift. I will return an equal gift to you for it."

[Anastasia]

"You're welcome," Kascha smiles.

After resting things are done, what's next on your agenda?

[Iron Dragoon]

Honestly, I have no idea. Exploring, maybe. I haven't really been here long enough to establish a group to help or be associated with. I think I remember you saying something about I should at least introduce myself to the Fey court? Other than that, I'm not sure where I could help out.

[Anastasia]

There's also the thing with the spiders if you want, or visiting Filbrez' Emporium.

[Iron Dragoon]

I say spiders first, then the emporium. If we don't group back up by then, the Fey court.

[Anastasia]

Finding the nest of phase spiders isn't hard. They're all clustered in a corner of the courtyard, Ebony nearby. She sits on a chair of spider silk, gently strumming a harp. All the noise of the courtyard and preparations seem muted here, Ebony's head bowed and hood up.

Go ahead, Surraruthru.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru flies over to her, subtly trying to get a peek under the hood, and greets her.

"Hello! Ebony, correct? I'm Surraruthru, newly arrived. I just acquired my soon-to-be lair and was wondering if I could get a few things from the Phase Spiders here for it. Kascha tells me you're the one to speak to for this."

[Anastasia]

Ebony looks up, brown hair and a beautiful face seen. She wears concealing robes the color of her name, save for the white wings from her back that sharply contrast it. She continues to strum on her harp, little eddies of music that are pleasing to the ear. "I am. What is it you need?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well, back in my grove, I used to sleep in nests of treasure and silk. I have some treasure, but silk..."

Surraruthru trails off and looks at the various amounts of silk around.

"Phase spider silk is very valuable, too. Two birds with one stone. Or web, I suppose. I don't expect it for free, of course, but I'm not sure what you'd want in trade."

[Anastasia]

"You can buy some. The spiders can make use of money, they are intelligent," Ebony remarks, "How much do you want?"

[Iron Dragoon]

I'm gonna have to defer to you on how much to make a nest. You have a much better sense of the size of stuff in this.

[Anastasia]

Just explain what you're trying to do and ask for an estimate.
