Just before the alchemist heads up the tunnel out,

"Indeed, but there is little I can do about what has already happened."

Ves nods and casts a glance to the roofs.

"Hey Jack, where's the Rusty Dagger?"

((Perception from Ves please, also in the interest of moving along are you okay to wait for your answer from Jaq a bit when NSF can respond?))

((Well, the Rusty Dagger is pretty notorious and if you've been in town before you'd know it was somewhere in the western slums. More than that Jaq is your guy (at least in the group).))

Ves doesn't spot anyone moving around on the roof tops.

((Ah, I glanced over that as just "oh, that was the apprentice's wallet," forgot he wouldn't know that.))

Checking the pouch, Lurn heads toward the surface, "To begin, let us ensure the people nearby are safe, and move outward from there. Are we all prepared?"

((All that meta knowledge is hard to keep straight sometimes, especially if it comes at you over a period of a week or more.))

The pouch isn't exceedingly heavy and opening it Lurn finds 20 platinum coins and 20 gold. Ertyl was getting paid quite handsomely not to do his job well. At the surface Lurn gets a feeling of unease at how oddly quiet it is and, unlike the others in his party, is going to have a hard time finding his way around very soon in the darkness.

The leading edges of the fog issuing from the well are beginning to reach where the group is standing. It has already dampened what little noise there was.

"This was quite the sum. Splitting it evenly, we each take five platinum and five gold, agreed?"

Once the coins are distributed, Lurn draws out a torch and moves away from the guardhouse before using Light to illuminate the torch.

Yup, to make it less likely people will see him coming from there before he lights the light. Should I roll Stealth? Not expecting much of it with his size, tho. XD

Go ahead if you are trying to be sneaky and roll a perception (with disadvantage due to the darkness) if you are trying to look around as well.

Joe looks at the money. "Wow. Ah nev'r seen so much mony in un place. 'E got tha much? 'E had no excuse ta do a poopy job." Joe will follow Lurn (she does not have darkvision so she's following the light spell.)

Ves looks over at the unexpected purse.

"I... Wow. Not going to say no to that."

She watches Lurn wander away, and trots after him.

"Hey, where are you going? We should at least arrange a place to meet up later, no? I've got a couple of stops I want to check in on at the warehouses and then some pub I heard about. Jack probably knows where it is, but he's lost in thought at the moment."

Mort's roller:

((Under Basic Roll: Give it a name then add your roll in Raw roll - like 1d20+modifier.

Rolled a nat 20 off the bat so that's always a good sign.))

Perception: 1d20+7 = [18] = 25
Stealth: 1d20+1 = [12] = 13

Ves cocks her head at the big firbolg and talks through her handkerchief at him.

"...You literally just said you don't know your way around town. I mean, it's cool if you don't want to hang out with us, but, you know... You're taking that guy down there at his word that this isn't going to turn into a complete shitshow as folk start waking up, AND that his potion is even going to work. Honestly, I don't trust him. This whole thing might have been an honest mistake, but he's been dealing in some messed up shit to begin with and I don't think his morals are quite where they should be. I'll be amazed if this town recovers as quick as it fell, and even if it does, theyre going to need someone watching out for them for the next few hours while that happens. You never taken care of a really drunk friend? This is like that, but like... a whole town's worth of folk."

It's all a bit muffled.
