Introductions at the Buckets

Taliesin Caradoc

After Manuel left Taliesin Caradoc's office, the detective went about making himself presentable. As he was about to leave, he heard the familiar sound of a cocking hand crossbow.

Taliesin Caradoc (narration):: This is not the first time someone has burst into my lodgings, as my door is a tattered drape. I keep meaning to get a real door; doors are expensive. Keep getting mugged. Despite being 185 years old, I can't seem to get more than 35 gold at a time. It's a gambling problem, see. I like to gamble.

Thug:: Jonny's lookin' fer ya.

Taliesin Caradoc:: Jonny? What's Jonny want?

Thug:: He wants that gambling money you owe him.

Taliesin Caradoc:: I keep gambling, and I'm out of money. I have a job. I'm, uh… looking for someone.

Thug:: How soon are you going to get paid?

Taliesin Caradoc:: As soon as I find him. I'm pretty good at finding people.

Thug:: I don't think Jonny can wait that long.

Taliesin Caradoc:: Jonny's going to have to wait.

Thug:: I dunno. Jonny said that if you didn't have the money here right now that I was supposed to shoot ya.

Taliesin Caradoc:: I'll give 15 gold now.

Thug:: 15 gold? I don't think that's going to be enough. What ya got in that backroom that you just locked up?

Taliesin Caradoc:: Uh, a bunch of used journals.

Thug:: Used journals? No, I need money. Gold. Jewelry.

Taliesin Caradoc:: I have 15 gold. I have 15 gold. That's all you're going to get.

Thug:: I'm sorry to hear that.

Taliesin quickly gestured and cast a charm on the thug. He become much, much more accomdating.

Taliesin Caradoc:: You're my trusted ally now.

Thug:: You bet. I'm sure there's some way I can work this out with Jonny.

Taliesin Caradoc:: Can you pay the debt for me?

Thug:: You owe a lot of money. I don't even have that kind of money.

Taliesin Caradoc:: You got to help me out of this. Jonny's sending hit men after me!

Thug:: You bet he is. He told me to kill ya if ya didn't have the money! He'll send more next time! You give me that 15 gold and I'll try to make it good with Jonny.

After ushering the thug out of his abode, Taliesin moved to the Buckets o' Beer tavern.

Tristram Shandy

Tristram Shandy arrived in The Dregs in search of Annie Stollbuck upon the advice of the detective Taliesin Caradoc. The detective informed Tristram that Amelia, a server at the Buckets o' Beer tavern, knew something about Annie's disappearane. Tristram kept his distance from the celebration that was underway. Apparently, the Amelia woman had recently birthed another little proletarian. He attempted to bide his time to speak with Amelia, but was accosted by various patrons, including the prophetic Garthen Earthmender.

Mikeal Orcaleone

Mikeal Orcaleone presented himself to his sister, Amelia, to celebrate the recent birth of her baby. He offered gifts from their father to her and upon hearing that the child was a masculine child, offered her more.

Garthen Earthmender

After arriving in Xalo, Garthen Earthmender made his way to the Buckets o' Beer tavern to find the people from his vision. He attempted to endear himself to the people, but was largely rebuffed. Several women were scared away by his conversation.

Conhar Cowmilker

Conhar Cowmilker sat by the door of the Buckets in wait for The Detective. He was in need of red leaf snuff, and he hoped that The Detective could help him locate some.

Saint Exquisite

Saint Exquisite came to the Buckets for one reason: to slap the bitch Amelia for giving her the evil side-eye two months ago in Nacho. Unfortunately, Amelia was surrounded by various scary people since she arrived at the Buckets. Saint Exquisite waited.

Attack on the Buckets

After taking on a job to find some red leaf snuff for Conhar Cowmilker, Taliesin introduced Tristram to Amelia. Just as she was about to answer the question of Annie's whereabouts, the door to the Buckets shattered open to reveal a squad of Jasidin Purple Guards.

One of the guards restrained Clarissa Bioden, the barmaid, after she confronted them. The rest of the guards set up a line across the tavern, weapons drawn. A wizened mage of the Order of Night's Breath, a Wee-Jasian order responsible for scrying and divination duties in the "protection" of Xalo and Daromir, entered the tavern. After looking around the room, he remarked the presence of Amelia and moved to a door connected to the main room of the tavern. Amelia jumped from her seat, screaming and lunged across the room. Mikeal failed to stop her, and she was slammed to the ground by the Purple Guards. Mekor entered the room through the door. As the door is closed behind him, the crying of baby was heard.

After a brief confrontation, Mekor left with Amelia's baby. Moments after Mekor and his squad left the Buckets, sounds of combat were heard from the street. Garthen and Taliesin moved outside to investigate. They saw Mekor grasping at his throat, unable to speak with the fingers of his hands contorted into strange positions. A number of the Purple Guards were on the ground, dead. The sound of combat faded as a huge bank of fog enveloped the scene. Taliesin looted the bodies before the fog faded. He investigated the scene and uncovered a brooch stylized in the fashion of the symbol of the philosophy the Way of Libertas.
