Okay, Morphias and I were hunting in the temple trying to complete a task that involved Dragonsbreath emeralds. We kept hunting on the third floor and were less then successful. I mentioned that we should go hunt on the second floor and we'd probably have better luck. He was not convinced, but not as soon as we started hitting sentries and magus he started to get the gems he needed. We were collecting boxes to the point of filling all our containers and disks. I felt a little brave and made a bet with him that there would probably be at least three emeralds in those boxes. He said there probably would not be. So, the bet was if there was he would have to publicly say I was right and he was wrong and vice versa if there was not...this is what happened next...


Morphias's group just went through some sturdy mithril doors.
[The Bank of Kharam-Dzu]
Surly dwarves grumble in line, clutching their coin-purses to their chests. Opposite the doors is a high, black steel counter. A spectacled dwarf is perched behind it, squinting at you from atop his tall chair. All around him, bald heads and flailing hands bob up and down frantically. The clinking of coins mixes with giggles of glee from the back. You also see a worn footstool and a black glaes sign.
Also here: Morphias

Morphias shares some coins with his group.
Morphias hands you 41637 silvers.
J>
Morphias says, "Still a good haul."
J>deposite all
You have no accessible notes to deposit here.
You hand your silvers over to the teller who nods as he makes a few notes in the books and says, "That's 41637 silvers to your account for a total balance of 2780515." The teller nods his head in approval.
J>agree mor
You agree with Morphias.
J>
Morphias says, "But i need 1 more gem dang."
J>nod morph
You nod to Morphias.
J>
Morphias checks his equipment, adjusting and rearranging his gear.
J>
Morphias's group just went out.
[Dragonspine and Rolaren]
Dragonspine Avenue is the main street of Kharam-Dzu. Most of the people you see are well-to-do dwarves, nattily dressed and apparently in a rush. The buildings all look new. Even the cobblestone streets are immaculately clean. A sturdy set of glaes-banded mithril doors leads into a low stone structure. The two guards outside clench their pikes tightly, peering closely at all who approach. You also see a bright brass sign.
Also here: Morphias
Obvious paths: north, east, south, west
J>
Your disk arrives, following you dutifully.
J>
Morphias's group just went north.
[Dragonspine and Ora]
Preoccupied folk make their way along this wide and busy avenue. A crew of broom-wielding dwarves sweeps the street clean of rubbish, working quickly under their supervisor's glare. To the west is the Company Store, which draws a steady flow of traffic to and fro. You also see a wrought iron sign.

Morphias's group just went north.
[Dragonspine and Mithril]
The flow of the crowd parts around a large hole in the middle of the road. A dwarven work crew stands around the hole, doing very little work. From the many shops and vendors' stalls along the street, you hear the cries of hawkers, the lamentations of hagglers and the occasional clink of a coin. You also see a small stone building with a large wooden sign on it and a wrought iron sign.

Morphias's group just went north.
[Dragonspine and Krodera]
The street widens into a circular plaza several hundred feet across. Dwarves and giantmen lounge on stone benches by a massive granite fountain in the center. The burbling of the waters, the low mumblings of the dwarves and the booming laughter of the giants somehow blend together into a vibrant harmony. You also see a dark-coated puma that is sleeping, a wrought iron sign, a lava tube and a pristine hulking giant statue.
Also here: Morphias, Odysia, Lord Caleanon, Smuthami who is sitting, Great Lord Seecill who is sitting, Willington who is sitting, Bumpur
Obvious paths: north, east, south, west

A dark-coated puma purrs quietly in her sleep.
J>
Morphias asks, "Anyone have 1 dragonfire emerald that I can buy for 12k?"
J>
Caleanon just opened a large sack.
J>recite Ladies and Gentlemen of all species...I have an announcement
You recite quietly:

"Ladies and Gentlemen of all species...I have an announcement"

J>

J>
Smuthami just opened a sturdy dark leather gem pouch.
J>
As Caleanon shakes his head, small flakes of ash fall slowly toward the ground.
J>
Morphias grins at you.
J>
Caleanon just closed a large sack.
J>

J>

You recite quietly:

"I, the Lady Winowyll Ly'shae...made a bet with Morphias about him being wrong and me being right"

You slowly and deliberately empty your filled lungs.

You tilt your head down.

J>
Ashtrell stares off into space.
J>
Willington grins.
J>
Ashtrell sits down next to Smuthami.
J>
The dim aura fades from around Willington.
J>
Speaking heartily to Ashtrell, Caleanon says, "'I did nae say I were da best, I said I were da beast."
J>
Caleanon folds his arms, grasping his shoulders.
J>
Ashtrell asks, "Da beast ?"
J>
Speaking to Morphias, Smuthami says, "I bet that one hurt."
J>recite he was right, I was wrong..
You recite quietly:

"He was right, I was wrong.."

J>
Caleanon adopts an agreeable expression.
J>
Kamkor's movements no longer appear to be influenced by a divine power as the spiritual force fades from around his arms.
J>
You do not feel drained anymore.
J>
Ashtrell tickles Caleanon into laughing.
J>
Morphias nods.
J>
Ashtrell joins Smuthami's group.
J>
Morphias says, "Feels good."
J>
Ashtrell snuggles Smuthami, who responds by cradling an arm around her.
J>
Seecill applauds.
J>
Morphias says, "I like being right."
J>

J>
Ashtrell gives Smuthami a warm buss on the lips.
J>

J>
Kamkor deeply asks, "Did...Did I hear that correctly?"
J>
Caleanon gives Alornen a playful bite.
J>
Caleanon heartily says, "An' takin' bites outta Lornie."
J>
Smuthami says, "If ya spoke with more tha none syllable i might understand ya."
J>recite so, for a monumentous occastion being that it only happened this one time, I figured it deserved public knowledge that lightening can strike twice, the sun does shine on a dogs butt, and even on rarer occasions, Morphias can be right.
You recite quietly:

"So, for a monumentous occastion being that it only happened this one time, I figured it deserved public knowledge that lightening can strike twice, the sun does shine on a dogs butt, and even on rarer occasions, Morphias can be right."

A swarm of tiny spiders suddenly appears from beneath the folds of Morphias's spidersilk cloak and seals the opening in the cloak with their silk.
