The second seal (Moore)

[Nephrite]

"Do we have any experts on Limbo or slaad in general around?" He'll ask. He folds his arms and tilts his head. "It's not bad, but I'm not sure I fill the outfit out quite as well."

[Anastasia]

"Why thank you!" Elena smiles warmly, twirling about, "Funny you mention that, the moment you asked about the slaad, 27 got up from Hanna's bed and started heading to the portal."

[Nephrite]

"He would. I'll find him." Moore says. Or he'll be found? Either way...

It's 27'o'clock.

[Anastasia]

"He just portaled to the Entrance Hall and he's heading out. I think he's coming for you," Elena says, "Good luck!"

[Nephrite]

It wouldn't be very nice to move, so he'll just wait.

[Anastasia]

27 comes right out to you like a shot arrow, stopping in front of you. His eyes meet yours and he says, "When all else fails, dragon."

[Nephrite]

"That was going to be my next guess. Also, was I supposed to go to a casino?" Moore asks. He's pretty sure he won't get an answer on that one, but...

[Anastasia]

"Dragons like treasure, don't they?" 27 says. His sword-heart slowly draws out then sinks back in as he speaks. "Nothing can keep a dragon from treasure."

[Nephrite]

"So is it that you can't answer normally, or that you choose not to, I wonder?" Moore shakes his head. "I'll ask Baleruk about going. Is there anything else you'd like to impart to me?"

[Anastasia]

"Be careful. Hanna can't be substituted for a rescue mission if things go wrong." With that 27 turns and goes right off.

[Nephrite]

Can't be substituted for a... what? He can't worry about it.

He'll go off to see Baleruk. Surely, that's who he meant, right? Not Gold? Oh well, he'll worry about that part later.

[Anastasia]

Baleruk's in his lair. He sits on his bed of gold, watching you as you come in. His voice is a low growl, "You return?"

[Nephrite]

Moore tilts his head. Was he supposed to do something...?

"Hi. Yes, we're back. Do you know much about Farrdale?" Moore asks. He may as well just get right to the point.

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d20+37 Kobot
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+37 Kobot --> [ 1d20=20 ]{57}

K:L for Limbo is useful.

"FARRDALE?!" Baleruk goes straight to a bellow, rising. His movement sends coins everywhere, Moore needing to duck to avoid getting brained by gold. "THAT INSOLENT SLAAD DARES RISE UP AGAINST MY PRISMATIC MAJESTY!? I WILL NOT ALLOW IT! MOORE, GATHER A WAR PARTY, FOR WE WILL LEAVE NOTHING OF FARRDALE BUT ASH! HE WILL RUE THIS INSULT IN OBLIVION FOREVER! I WILL FEAST ON HIS BONES AND GNAW ON HIS SOUL!" Baleruk's tale thumps down, making the entire demiplane shake.

[Nephrite]

Moore jumps back in surprise, dodging a coin here and there. "Well, I wasn't quite expecting this kind of response... but I suppose it probably is a terrible place. I'm actually going there to look for one of Malcanthet's minions that I need to bring to justice. Do you know how we can get in? I heard it was locked, basically -- but I'm guessing that isn't a big problem for you."
