Devaguea grumbled as Sena and Hoots departed with the herd, before shaking his head. He was far to lenient with his companions, but that was why they loved him. And the pay was good too.<br/><br/>Upon arrival at the meeting spot, he greeted the other group, explained the magic carpet and missing druid, before dividing the two groups again. Sadly, the only had ten of the companions and advisors present, so he was taking a smaller group than normal in. After talking with the groups, he took Anke, Akiros, Serena, Nordri and Kesten. That put Sak'bas, Cynthia, Korima and Sydon with the soldiers to 'menace' the area. If any of the thugs went for a walk out of town, he wanted them to vanish, but otherwise he wanted the soldiers to steer clear of the town. He fully intended to add the holdings to his own, and having the townsfolk already hating them would make that more difficult.<br/><br/>The first night, he cast invisibility on Nordri, and then sent him into town to get information. The rogue could get himself out without issue, he knew the spell vanish, but he wanted the rogue to get in without issue. He didn't expect the rogue to get much direct info, but he would overhear a lot of chatter, even if only from the thugs, sorry guards.
