The Wild Beyond Witchlight

Alright then. Had me wondering if Bavlorna had voodoo dolls of someone(s) we haven't met yet in the room.

@Guardian Angel Haruki do these figures have any recognizable features?

Aurora

Aurora smiled some in response to the offer of an alliance. It was a relief to find someone helpful around the hut. "I do believe that would work for us. As I said before we are looking for a stag head. If you find anything that might be useful it might be worth taking as well. I know I am looking to replace a set of tools that Agdon Longscarf stole from me. It contained a series of picks, turners, small blades, and some other small odds and ends. There wasn't much in this room, aside from some creature in a crate and some false eyes. I'm not sure what the creature is but it smells awful."

Aurora started to head to another door, this one near the dummies the hat creature was one. She kept one hand on the hilt of her shortsword while walking past the dummies incase the creature found another place to lie in wait. "I will add there is some creature around here that disguises itself as a hat. If you see a hat not being worn by someone already, be careful around it." She said to Rearden before slowly opening the door.

OOC

Aurora heads to the door at B3 keeping an eye out for the hat monster. While it may not be here, she suspects it fled to find a new hiding spot.

Aurora

Aurora relaxed slightly when the person, who introduced themselves as Rearden, denied working for Bavlorna in a way that showed disgust at the thought of working with the hag. She looked back into the room and motioned to the others that it seemed safe enough for the moment.

"Right then, um just so you are aware I am not the only other person here. My companions, well two of them anyway, and I were looking for a stag head for a scarecrow named Clapperclaw. We are in a similar situation of sorts, though different still. We came here on behalf Mister Witch and Mister Light. They have not heard from their patron in many years." The elf paused for a moment shaking her head. "Sorry that is not necessarily relevant at the moment. I do believe there is a way to return to the prime material here, I do not know where or how. Clapperclaw says they can get us out of Hither and to Thither, where I believe Bavlorna has gone in an attempt to flee."

She paused again to try to straighten out her appearance some. She had failed to notice how poor it had become over the course of the day. "Please excuse my rudeness, this day has been dreadful with waking up in a cage here, watching a companion perish, and nearly being smothered by a creature that looks like a hat. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Aurora."

@ctrlsaltdel

I will add Aurora probably looks the worst for wear right now. Her face might still be reddish and hair is all a mess from wrestling with a creature that was trying to smother her.

Aurora

Aurora mutters to herself as the person called out. It seemed she was not as quiet as she thought. Then again it could be the fact of the open door. "Well I suppose I'll go out. You two stay here for right now. Better not let them see how many we are just yet." She whispers to Gabe and Zavakri.

Cautiously, Aurora first peers through the door to see where the person was and to see if anyone else was there. Falling to see anyone else in the area, she looked back at the person. "Hello there. Please excuse my initial want to make sure the room was relatively safe. It's been a long day with many troubling events in it. You have my word, I will not bring harm to you." Aurora stepped out of the room fully while she was talking to the new comer. They did not seem to aggressive by any means at this time. "If you don't mind my asking, you are not here out of service to Bavlorna are you?"

Aurora

"I'm not sure. It does seem out of place among the glass eyes and that's about it. If you want to grab it go for it. I'm not entirely sure what we might need it for." She half turned when replying to Gabriel's question.

At the sound of another door opening, she completely turned around to face the the door back to the pool. "I thought this place would be empty." She whispered to Gabe. We probably should keep quiet and ready ourselves. I'll move over to the door and listen to where they are heading. Hopefully they ignore the open door and us if they are not friendly."

OCC

Aurora is going to sneak over to the door to listen to where the person is going. 17 for stealth, and 10 for perception.

@Guardian Angel Haruki I'm guessing the wooden eye just seems strange and nothing else correct?

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

@Guardian Angel Haruki

I figured it was the creature in the crate not the eye. However a hat did just attack Aurora only a few minutes ago, she is currently suspect of items in this hut.

The Wild Beyond Witchlight

@Guardian Angel Haruki that might not be a bad idea. It would draw some extra interest by being a new post at the top of the interest check list.
