Belros pulled out the papers from his pocket and held it out for Madante to take. "Apparently they ransacked the town's blacksmith. If you look in there you'll see it's messed up good. I just so happened to find these papers in one of the chests in said building, and that's where he hid this." Though why would they steal from a local blacksmith. He thought the guild only stole from the rich and the people here don't have as much money as other places. What exactly happened while he was gone?

"So this must be the boat schedule, man they really did a number on this place. I guess I should report this to Madante." Belros grabbed the clump of papers and left the building. This must've been the place they stole their weapons from. Conveniently Madante was just across the way. He headed over to the group, papers tucked in his pockets, and spoke cheerily. "Hey, Madante guess what I just found."

"A magic book huh?" Belros thought with a bit of disappointment. He was hoping for something he could use like a new sword. "Oh well, maybe Darius will gt some use out of it." He sighed and headed back to the group and noticed a building that looked like a blacksmith shop based of the hammer sign. Making a slight detour he knocks on the door to see if they were at all harmed by those thieves. "Hey, is anyone in there? There were some thieves fighting outside but they've been taken care of, are you all alright?" He spoke to the door and anyone inside. Maybe if there wasn't anyone inside he could take a peek in. As long as he doesn't steal anything he should be fine.

Seeing as how the fighting was over Bel put away his knives. He saw there was a chest left northward and it'd be a shame to watse whatever was inside. Besides, he was just picking up evidence. So he headed up north, lockpick in hand and began opening the chest. Move to E16 and open the chest with the lockpick.

Jade O'Duffle Jade, realizing that the blobs create solid blocks, grabs and throws them the the wall with the door on it forming a staircase-like formation. Once the staircase is formed he plans to climb up it and continue on forward. Also, before proceeding he takes his empty potion bottle and fills it with the green eco jelly. Use the Brown Globs to make a Staircase to the door to proceed forward and fill potion bottle with Green Eco Jelly.

"Rico huh," Belros thought to himself, "I guess we should be glad it was only his lackeys, if it really was him..." He shivered at the thought. He turned over to see Madante laying on the ground. This was no time to be standing around. Belros rushed over as far as he could, putting away his parrying knife for something more throw able. Move to M9 and Equip Iron Knives

"Heh, now that's more like it! Speed and bulk!"

Jade O'Duffle Curious about these colored globs falling from the ceiling Jade take a closer look at them to see if he can notice anything out of the ordinary about them. Examine the Falling Ceiling Globs

Jade O'Duffle Taking the most direct approach Jade decides to simply leap across. Making jumps over chasms wasn't anything new for him. Using the momentum of the convayor belt he made a running jump to hopefully make it to the other conveyor belt. Jump across to the other belt

Belros groaned as he opened his eyes as he felt the pain of his previous wounds. It hurt, but at least he was alive to feel them. He saw that mage lady huddled over him and she seemed to have done some patch work, enough to bring him back from the brink of death. "Thanks for the help but you should rest. You seem a wore out after what you just did, I can finish the rest of the patch work myself." He spoke gratefully to the mage using the rest of the medicine he had on him. "My name is Belros, by the way. Since we haven't been introduced yet." He got up and turned to Scion giving him a glare. "Hey scum bag, guild rule number seven, never leave a job half finished." He spoke smugly to the thief wiping blood from the side of his mouth. "By the look of things I don't think you're even a quarter complete. So what's the matter slacker, are you gonna go against the guild too?" He readied his new knife and stood guard. While running away may have saved his life, he couldn't leave the mage winded, waiting to be stabbed by the man. Hopefully, he could at least distract him long enough for her to catch her breathe or someone to finish him off. Move to M2, equip the parrying knife, and use a Vulnerary

Ahem,

Jade O'Duffle "Eh, just waiting around here isn't accomplishing anything. Might a well see where this goes." Jade responds to Gary before stepping on a conveyor belt. He kept an eye on the spurting of energy from the walls. His plan was when he got near the energy spout he would run against the belt until the energy stopped. Then he would bolt across while then energy was gone. Hopefully this'll go well. Usually black pits don't mean anything good. Get onto the conveyor belt, wait for the energy to stop spewing then run forward. Once around the corner look ahead.

"Hell if I know.. unless..." He didn't want to think they'd be after him quite so soon but it certainly is a possibility. "Actually there maybe one reason why they're so hellbent on killing me, though it's a long story. I'll tell you once we're safe."

"Even if this does go south I don't think a thieving guy like me is going to the same place as a women such as yourself." He remarked sarcastically, "Lucky for me I guess."

"At least it's what I need, though if I could get a bit more that'd be appreciated... Guess I just need to try harder..."

"Why me? Please goddess tell me why does all this stuff happen to me?" Belros groaned before an arrow pierced his left arm. He threw couple of knives on retaliation. He's not in a good position right now, he needs to regroup with the others. Turning around he rushes back down towards their new mage friend. He pulls the arrow out from his arm before patching the wound with some of the Vulnerary he had left. Only a little remained at this point, probably enough for one more patch work at best. He turn over to their new mage comrade. "Who knew a spy like me was so popular huh?" He remarked sarcastically before becoming more sincere, "Sorry you're being brought into all this." Move to M1 and use the Vulnerary

"Yea, here take this hammer. Give it to someone who can use it properly." He hands the man the hammer he found in the chest. Now the next one is across the way. Target locked. Send Hammer to the convoy

"This is my chance!" Belros thought to himself as a clear path was made for him to poach whatever was in the chest. He ran forward confident his allies could take care of that pesky mage. Once over to the chest he swiped out his lockpick and began fiddling with the chest. "It's a shame your friends abandoned you, but don't worry you'll find more use with us then soon to be dead men." Move to H1 and open then chest for some, hopefully, sick loot

Ahem,

Ahem,

"Oh boy, here we go." Belros said a bit annoyed, "Well it was inevitable I guess." Belros still had his suspicion about about the bard. He couldn't prove he did anything wrong but he definitely wasn't acting innocent. But what was that off in the distance? He knew just from a glace, loot. It was probably from these thieves and stealing from them didn't really matter to him because they'll be gone anyways. So why waste perfectly good stuff? Belros sneaked around behind his teammates looking for the moment where he could dash in and find out what's in that chest. Move to N1 and eye that yummy loot in the chest

"Hey everyone, I brought Emilee and her friend over." He spoke up smugly, "And by friend, I mean a suspicious person that maybe with the thieves we're looking for." He pointed his finger at Cass keeping a close eye on him. "I'm not 100% sure on that but by the way he's acting he's definitely guilty of something."

Jade O'Duffle So, this is what actives the green eco in this temple. Well I suppose that's all for us to do on this left path time to head to the right. Luckily the pillars stopped moving up and down so he could use them as jumping platforms to safely get across. "Alright, lets head off to that other fork shall we?" Jump across using the pillars then head over the the right path
