A Good Question, Halfling Dan
Brogg: "I've got Faith, brother Orcsides! -Something that it seems you need a little more of."
So Brother Orcsides thinks about your words and nods. He says, and you're not sure if he's
serious or just being smug, "So does that mean that Grettin and Shettin need to have some more faith too? I mean, really, what's the plan here, we're not just talking about going on a treasure hunt or something, this is serious. How do we find the Oracle of Gryss? Can you search your faith?"
Okay, maybe he's being a bit smug. Just to make the point, he continues, sort of bitterly: "So what, you just type in to the command prompt:
> SEARCH
And it doesn't really get it, so the computer responds
I don't know what you want to SEARCH.
And so you refine your command like
> SEARCH FAITH
And the computer's all
You find one Oracle of Grisbane. (Your score just went up five points: 16/200. You are a: Junior Adventurer.)
Just like that huh."
Brother Orcsides sighs. "Look, sorry for being all snappy, but when your priests- your friends- are butchered, it pisses a guy off. And when in a moment of need, High Priests Grettin and Shettin cast a Commune, which is a frickin' 5th level spell, you know, like Flame Strike? Like Plane Shift? Like fuckin' Raise Dead?! When you drop a Commune, you expect answers. You don't expect: 'Oh here's a wacky riddle about how the Oracle didn't go to the dance party!' So yeah, maybe you're right. Maybe my faith is a little shaken. Followers of Grisbane- other priests too- just dead now, and we got squat. So really, Brother Brogg. I'm not trying to be a dick or anything here. Speak With Animals ain't gonna cut it. Do you have a real plan?"
In a more general sense, what is the plan? A plan basically consists of going somewhere, and the places you can go aren't that many: Greyhelm, Durth, the City of Spiders, and misc.
Halfling Dan sits down on the couch and says: "So this is Grito. Huh." (Pause.) "So what's a halfling gotta do to get some pussy around here?" Marivhon, Halfling Dan is kind of bored and tries to pick pockets you, but he fails (undetected). Oh well, he'll just try again next post.
