"Ah ok, Koliyn then it is? Wonderful weather they have there, I'm sure you three lovely ladies shall enjoy it. Do look up one of my friends there, his name is Bob the Stabber. He likes to stab things, mostly things involving fish. Koylin is such a wonderful port town after all, such lovely fish markets. Tell him when you find him that he still owes me 1000 gp, and I would rather need it promptly. Would just hate to send one of other associates, Tod the Slasher, to go and find him.<br/><br/>Well then, shall we begin?"<br/><br/>He makes the group of you into a more or less clumped together off to the side. Meanwhile he takes out a book and starts to read it, trying to find the correct spell and such. Getting rather distracted by what is in the book, looking flustered. Spending a few minutes looking at one page and then another, mumbling to himself.<br/><br/>"Huh, I thought I paid off that whore last month. What did I do with her again...? Hmmm...."<br/><br/>Pondering to himself for a good while longer while you three stand there awashed in horror and anger. He finally finds the solution to the problem at hand, mumbling to himself some more before getting out a pencil and erasing something or other. Trying to remember what was going on, before seeing you three STILL standing there.<br/><br/>Finally getting focused after easily ten minutes or rambling to himself and checking out his book, to only then find out that this is his accounting book and not his spell book. Putting that back away into his pockets and fishing around for the real spell book. Rummaging around in his pockets for some more time, finally finding the right book and pulling it out.<br/><br/>Then taking his sweet time trying to find the right page, finally getting to the right spot. Chanting off the correct arcane words, with there being a spell circle appearing on the grass around you all. Soon enough he waves his hand there is a POP!<br/><br/>First there was the most annoying mage that has ever existed in all of mankind, the next there is sky. Apparently after taking stock of your situation, you are a few mile or so up in the atmosphere, free falling in no time. The horses freaking the shit out as you all plummet to your doom. The good news of this all, if you care to pay attention, is that there is a city underneath you all.<br/><br/>(whoops, got my group rps mixed up. In any case, this is a puzzle for the purposes of it being a puzzle.)<br/><br/>
