Having spend all the coin in his possession on the Rat, Mudy turns to Sir Bladetree to pay the bill.
Bladetree yawns and mutters,
>"Ofcourse I have coin on mine person, Prince. About a hundred, plus twenty pieces-of-ten."

The waitress smiles.
>"Each tankard of Moonshine Brew is fifty coins worth. Thine group hath celebrated with twentythree."
She pauses a moment to let Mudy do the math.
>"A night's stay in the common room is ten coins a head."

Mudy looks up with his most charming eyes. He asks if perhaps he can pay by performing.
The elfmaid's voice grows with excitement.
>"Thou art a bard? How delightfully quant!"
, she exclaims.

Mudy agrees to sing the song of his people as payment, give a performance so great it will pay the bill in only one night, and have his men do small chores in the meantime.
The waitress is obviously delighted by Mudy's promise of 'the song of his people'. It looks like she just sees Mudy as some kind of oddity rather than a person.
She suddenly grabs his hand and slaps some sort of shackle onto it.
>"Wonderful! Then we will be expecting thee tonight. This will prevent thee from leaving the city. The rest of thine friends may remain here."

There is little response from the others. Axebeard and Bladetree seem to have fallen asleep again while Totenkopf and Darkmoon just whisper sweet nothings and plans to rent a private room.

OKAY SO

We start the show with a simple melody on Mudy's ukulele. As we build on that, Mudy begins to weave an epic tale about a warrior on a quest to find his love and stop an evil tyrant (all while continuing to play). Once Mudy reaches the part where the warrior fights with the tyrant, we have totenkopf summon an Imp who Mudy will feign fighting.
(OR! maybe we could have Totenkopf dress up in his old helmet and play the tyrant, he loves to play pretend.)
Once Mudy reaches the part where he saves his love, we will have him play his magical flute WHILE playing legato on his ukulele.
Finish strong with a Ukulele solo.

Mudy is rather shocked at being cuffed like that. He asks the maid how severe the consequences are if he leaves the city.
She responds in a slightly different voice.

Mudy accepts with a sigh. He turns to the manpower the king granted him again.
>"Looks like saving the kingdom will have to wait, since I have to pay off you guys' bar tab."
, he says, gently shaking Bladetree to wake him up.
>"I don't suppose you could help me out somehow?"

There is no response. Bladetree and Axebeard are out cold, looking rather comfortable and relaxed in their slumber.
The two generals on the other side of the table continue to cuddle and the occasional 'I love you' reaches Mudy's ears.

>"Except water. Water's free, right?"
She smiles.
>"The only water we serve here is collected from the Diamond Springs in the far north. The mug thou had a moment ago costs onehundred and fifty coins."

Mudy grows increasingly uncomfortable. He takes a moment to subtly examine the waitress.
Luckily there's no sign of snake-like properties, but something about her face is making him feel dizzy.

This Idea make a good bit of sense, but do it WITH CONFIDENCE, to make it look like you don't NEED them to be able to tear him apart.


Also, Mudy definitely needs to add 'get Bladetree and Darkmoon to help teach us some quick-elfy style of swordsmanship/Knifesmanship' when time is available. I am fine with being able to die by being sneezed on, but really, I think we should have SOMETHING besides our incredible wit, charm and charisma, awesome tho they be.

Surely, we won't win the third game unless we pick one catgirls can't play at all.
That leaves us with what, three ways to come to mind first? First, wake any of our companions, order her slaughtered. Second, submit, play for her guests well enough to make them free us, preferably violently. And third, obviously, run.

My, how delightful this Mudy Quest is! Why, and look! An update! Well, let's see what our delightful little kobold bard is up to and-

Oh.

Ahem, well, let's see. If this lady is indeed a Blutjager, then we can expect much of the same power as we saw from Raital. And our dear Kobold is quite incapable of defeating someone in serious combat. Remember last time characters resorted to a terrible threat with physical action? I believe it resulted in eye lasers and bad ends, but I could be mistaken.

So, the thing to do at this point is to use Mudy's incredible intelligence and charisma to win the day. Unfortunately, it seems as though this has been attempted, but I refuse to see this as a dead end, even now. There's an opening, we need only grasp it. So, then-

MY GODS. Brilliant! You fellows are marvelous! Then we've discovered it! The Blutjager's weakness! They're all apparently xenophiles and perverts! Wonderful! Victory is at hand!

Seeing the Blutjaeger's response, power returns to Mudy's heart. He decides to deliver the finishing blow.
"Round and soft and so invitin--!"

MUDY: Seriously consider becoming a homosexual. These women are all mad. Prince Silvermoon
seemed nice.

Assuming the Blutjaegers are the Skullking's children, we've seen one half-kobold and one catgirl so far. Since Mudy's a pureblooded kobold, it's doubtful that we're another of his children.

That is, of course, assuming that all the above information is correct.

It is also safe to assume that we are not the Skullking himself, considering said entity must be humanoid to some degree. But I digress, this is best reserved for the discussion board.

Also, we must steal Kuhral's panties and add them to our fine collection.

I say we try and get Totenkopf or Darkmoon to just zap the damn shackles off of us while Kuhral is out cold.

If that doesn't work, we have a slightly drunk, surly dwarf with a sledgehammer and we really don't need a wrist to play the flute; fingers sure, and an elbow to move our hand back and forth, but not a wrist so much. We can safely splint it later.

If Kuhral wakes during this, threaten to use the same brute-force tactics to remove the one on our neck. We are a bard, we will not be chained down to but one woman, one town and we will not be cornered or controlled.

Plus, the bitch cheats.

Kuhral isn't there anymore. She pulled a Batman and disappeared.

Actually, Raital remarked that some of his brothers and sisters show more of their heritage, and some less. Could be that we're just happily all kobold-like.
