During luncheon it was decided that the company will proceed to investigate the Gottfried crypt, beginning this very afternoon.

Pelenwin, in particular, is pleased with this as it serves his mission closely. The others seem more interested in what gold might be found...

None the less, preparations are made, and within the hour arms and armour are gathered, packs filled with all manner of dungeoneering gear and slung upon backs. The formidable group is ready to march up Eagle street toward the temple, and the grave yard.

They will make a fine parade indeed, in the bustling, well to do streets of Ket!

Gentlemen! The game is once more afoot.

Please state here any final preparations or precautions, including anything that is being left behind in the Manse.

For your information, you are without the services of Percy, Mads II, Victor and Koch, all of whom have disappeared into the squirming guts of Ket this last week...

Ulric, Highbough, Josiane and Pelenwin, please confirm what spells you have memorised this morning (Danhem, yes, I know).

Everyone; you have scant supplies around the house. At most, half a day of fresh rations can be scrounged (per person) from the left overs after luncheon. The good news is, Madam Piganne is cooking a roast pig for dinner tonight, and it is already beginning to smell awesome!

Desmond has very little to leave behind and no place to put it, in any case. (i.e. he will bring everything currently on his person.)

He does, however, request one of the goblins purchase some items for his room...

Pine bed (8 sp)
Pine chair (5 sp)
Large Wooden Chest (16 sp)
Lock (12 sp)
Bed Linens (8 cp)
Woolen Blanket (12 cp)
(2) Pillows (12 cp)

Total Expenses: 41 sp and 32 cp
Desmond gives the goblin making the purchases a miserly 24 sp and 3 gp, leaving him with a total of 3 gp to his name.

Dorgan will leave behind:

All but one day of his rations
His spare outfit of clothes
Grappling hook and 60' of rope
One of his original daggers (now replaced by Grumolg's letter opener)
Grumolg's snuff box (wrapped in the dwarf's clothes so as to be invisible to prying Goblin eyes)
The vial he removed from the letter opener (also wrapped in clothes)

He'll also make sure that the holy water he has (two vials) is on his bandoleer, not in his pack.

Ways, can you confirm he still has 10 of 12 nips left in his hip flask?

Josiane will be bringing all of her equipment (such as it is) bar blankets and bedroll, ensuring her oil, torches and holy water are stowed at the top of her pack within easy reach.

She shares Pelenwin's eagerness to take the battle to the foe. The Vagabond Knight is motivated by higher passions than a simple lust for gold...

She will offer a bud of garlic from the string she carries to any member of the company who wishes to take some; "Keep these close. This herb has properties to keep the Vampire at bay. May it serve to protect you in the trials ahead."

She has memorised the Sacrosanct Solliloquy.

Dieter will travel fairly lightly, as is his way. In addition to arms and armor, he'll carry:

Backpack, with rations
Waterskin, 2

Crowbar
Shovel
60ft of loyal silk rope and light weight, spring-loaded grappling hook

As well as 25 silver pieces, in case he needs cash at all. (The rest of his money is located under a loose floorboard in his room, but only he knows that.)

Very good, Bennug dutifully writes down Desmond/Mondes' requirements and takes the coin.

"I shall see to it, Sirs," he says, frowning when Mondes pokes his tongue out.

"Goblin freak," mutters Mondes...
