[ic=Blackjack]"Well, we've still got to wait for Watsup, the other guy, to get here," Blackjack replies to the Elf, "but as soon as he shows up, we should be good to go."

"Yeah, I agree," Blackjack whispers back to Jeroen, "we should definitely try and find out what's going on here.  Obviously this guy's not telling us everything."

"Hm," Blackjack thinks, "what the heck is taking Watsup so long?  Well, hopefully that bird of Jeroen's will get him and bring him here.  I am ready to go!  I didn't join this stupid quest to do dirtywork for a bunch of stinking Elves.  I joined it to get paid, and if it never gets going, I'm never going to get paid.[/ic]

[ooc]Didn't Golem and brainface say that Wastep was on his way last page?  Is he almost here now?[/ooc]

Wastep steps into the docking office, leaving the door open long enough to let a raven flutter through.
"I've found all I can in this time. Are we prepared to leave yet?"

[spoiler=questions]
You've already told me 3 things earlier in the thread, I think we got discommunicated somewhere in there. If I get to ask 3 further things:
Are there any ways to prevent or delay onset of the insanity?
How dangerous are the spirits?
How far away is the black city from any civilization?

[ic=Blackjack]"'Bout time you showed up," Blackjack huffs, "we're ready to go. Only a few complications from our Elf friends. The trip costs 50,000 gold, and that's with the 'permit' our other Elf pal gave us.  So, they've agreed to give us a free ride, if we deliver a package for them at the Great Sky Market.  So, we've decided it was okay, assuming it would be okay with you since, unless you have a LOT more money than you let on, it's the only way we're getting anywhere, let alone the Black City.  That about sums it up, we were only waiting for you to leave.  So, now that you're here, I guess we're ready to go."

"Finally, he's here.  Wonder what he learned about the Black City."[/ic]

Captain Obvious

[ic= Jeroen ] As he strokes his raven's head, Jeroen speaks to Wastep.
" Ah, Wastep, i see that Glimmer found you and you have both returned in good time. I am glad of this. Jack has told you most of what you need to know and it shouldn't be too long until we reach the Black City, as our ever helpful elven friend here assures us that it will be a quick and unneventful task we must undertake. And of course we trust him implicitly. "
Wispering to Wastep " Once we are underway and the four of us have some privacy, you must tell us what you learnt of our destination so that we may begin to form a plan. "

[ic=Blackjack] "Well, now that we're all one big happy family, again, could we possibly leave?  While I'm sure it's been a fun and interesting conversation for both myself and our new Elf friends, I think we're all ready to get the heck out of here.  Yes?"

"Talk, talk, talk.  I feel like that's all I do around here.  Let's get moving so I can get collecting on this treasure.  Sheesh, stupid Elves.  Stupid Watsup."[/ic]
