<span class="bbc_u"><strong>GM Notes:</strong></span><br/><br/><strong>1. TINALIA.</strong><br/>Tinalia went into the Inn with Sildar and ordered a drink from the proprietor, a young human male named Toblin Stonehill.<br/><br/>"We've not heard about goblins," Toblin said as he poured her a mug.<br/><br/>"Aye, that's true," a grizzled old miner.   "They says orc raiders have been causin' all sorts of trouble on the east end of the Triboar Trail.  Townmaster's been lookin' fer' someone to run 'em off."<br/><br/>"And the Redbrands--" a woman who appeared to be the innkeeper's wife started, but Toblin shut her up.<br/><br/>"The less we say about them, the better," Toblin warned.<br/><br/>Sildar interjected:<br/><br/>"I am here to see about a room," he started,  "And to see if you've heard of a wizard named Iarno.  He was a member of the Lord's Alliance, but he disappeared some time ago."<br/><br/>"Aye, he stayed here not two months ago," Toblin said, fetching a key for the old paladin.   "He said he was investigating something in the outskirts of town.  Haven't seen him since.  People have a way of disappearing nowadays."<br/><br/>"... And the Townmaster isn't doing anything?"<br/><br/>"About the disappearances?" Toblin almost laughed.   "No."<br/><br/><strong>2. LYNARRA.</strong><br/><br/>"Yes," the girl said.   "Everyone is afraid.  They are afraid of the Redbrands.  It's a gang of bad men.  They murdered a nice man named Mr. Dendrar and took his wife and children about a fortnight ago.  A boy and a girl.  They are my friends.  My mommy thinks that they killed them."<br/><br/><br/><br/>
