Objective 2
- Observe the council meeting
Herubrand's council is meeting in the basement of the farm-house, and Herubrand has invited you to join them.
- Herubrand says, "Good, everyone has arrived. It is time to begin."
- Herubrand says, "I want to thank you three for saving Briant and me during the attack."
- Herubrand says, "We would have died with my wife and father if not for your quick thinking."
- Herubrand says, "These injuries will heal, but I still live to see that this city does not fall."
- Herubrand says, "We must find those who killed my family!"
- Herubrand says, "But, who is our enemy? We could not determine who those men were."
- Herubrand says, "They looked like men from Woodhurst, though none of their faces were familiar..."
- Herubrand says, "Is anyone safe, if we cannot even keep the mead hall secure?"
- Elda says, "Not to interrupt, but do we know this <class> can be trusted?"
- Herubrand says, "I would not have invited <name> to the council if I thought doing so would risk our safety."
- Elda says, "Given the events of late, I simply feel it is unwise to put trust in this newcomer. I meant no offence."
- Calin says, "It may be wise to speak with the guards around the city to see if they have seen suspicious activity?"
- Arnwi says, "I am not convinced that is as wise as it may seem."
- Arnwi says, "The night we were attacked, two guards stood watch outside the mead hall."
- Arnwi says, "Yet I saw no guard assist our struggle, nor were they injured or dead outside the door."
- Arnwi says, "Their absence is suspicious, and I am not sure the guards can be trusted."
- Herubrand says, "We must start somewhere. I agree, we should see if the guards might help point us in the right direction."
- Herubrand says, "If those sworn to protect us went missing, that is troubling. We should discuss this with the captain."
- Calin says, "Trouble seems to be brewing in the lower quarters of Woodhurst."
- Calin says, "Are the Dunlendings there suspected to be behind this attack?"
- Arnwi says, "No, the Dunlending are our brothers too. We have long lived together in peace here."
- Elda says, "We could just as easily blame the Rohirrim."
- Elda says, "Whom I'm sure are enthralled with us for letting this city become so dangerous for them."
- Elda says, "Speaking of which, do any remain, or have they all left? Is that not suspicious?"
- Herubrand says, "Enough."
- Herubrand says, "Bickering about this will get us nowhere."
- Herubrand says, "We have nothing to base our suspicions on any particular people."
- Herubrand says, "I want to catch whoever is behind this, but we should not jump to conclusions."
- Herubrand says, "We will see what the guards and the captain have to say."
- Arnwi says, "Yes, my Reeve."
- Calin says, "Yes, my Reeve."
- Elda says, "Yes, my Reeve."
- Herubrand: 'We will speak again shortly, once the others have departed. I may not know you well, but you told me of my family and of the scene at the Mead Hall, when the others would not. I believe you have earned my trust.'
