"Right then, given the experience we've just had, taking some time to rest up and relax would certainly be Ideal." The bard says accompanied by a decisive clap of his hands. "A stay at the Duke's Arms, sure sounds like the right approach. If you would be so kind to arrange that Surkil." Xarces concludes, motioning in the direction of their previous employer while hastily making his way to the door. Stopping for but a moment to nod to his companions "I myself shall be checking out some of the more... colorful areas of Adderport. I trust that the rest of you shall stay out of trouble until we meet again." he finishes with a grin, one that made no promises on his own behalf.<br/><br/>Once on the street, the bard was in his element. Deciding to start from the bottom and work his way up, Xarces makes his way toward the less reputable parts of town, eager to mix and mingle with the townsfolk, to experience what this city had to offer, as well as pursuing his own agenda, to gather any information he could on The emerald Claw, and more specifically Dura, as surely their group must have passed through Adderport before ambushing them.<br/><br/>Xarces<div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Essentially he's going to be looking for interesting locations, and asking around about Dura in the areas around the docks, the lizardton slums, and working his way in from there assuming nothing of interest happens to keep him occupied for the night.
