Ayotnom says, "Forgive me, I misunderstood the nature of your jewelry. I'll save putting on mine for when I reach my normal size."

Tsak visits the catacombs before they leave. He's after some restoration potions to get his mind and body back to where they were before the overgrown slug zapped him. After that he's ready to return to the Rose and head out for the next adventure, or diplomacy, whichever happens first.

Elyas understands why Salvas can't share more. He makes a mental note of the surroundings in case a haven is ever needed.
Falco considers the Petals rise in power, wondering why the merfolk couldn't have dealt with them, and why they never asked for help. He suggests they ask for help in the future.
Kiwina suggests that Maybe The Deep was weakened by his imprisonment, and hadn't come to full power yet. Especially considering the merfolk used a powerful artifact to imprison him. He excuses himself, as he desires to explore the area.
Mak had heard of merfolk gillmen and sirens, but never thought he would see them, and here in this adventure, he has encountered 2 out of the three, and heard of an encounter with the 3rd. He feels privileged to have seen what he has seen.
Wil asks if the is a WLA branch.
Rolth joins Kiwina on the sight seeing.
Ayotnom says he will put on the brooch when returning to full size.
Tsak make a pit stop at the Catacombs.
***************************************
Salvas chuckles a bit as he answers Falco, "You are not wrong friend, though, in our defense, until now, we knew not who we could trust. To add to the problem, when even other merfolk communities have forgotten the truth, and insisted the whole thing was not but legend, finding those who would listen proved challenging, and we simply had given up."
To Kiwina he says, "Of course, please feel free to explore. Based on what Lilly told me, you should still have around 12 hours left before the elixir wears off."
To Wil he says, "Sadly we do not have that which you seek. We are an isolated community, or at least we have been, and never had a need for such a facility. Now that the threat, of The Deep is over, maybe we can and should rejoin the rest of civilization. There are many here, especially among the youth, that would love nothing less than exploring, the Wold. In the future, such a place may be a desirable addition to our community."
As Kiwina and Rolth explore the surrounding area, they discover that the village is nestled into a natural ring of stone. They surmise that his location was probably chosen to offer protection from rogue water currents, as enemies could simply attack from above. The rocks themselves are comprised mostly of quartz found in a multitude of colors, with some granite mixed in for good measure. There are schools of many different brightly colored fish swimming along the rocks, as well as much corral. To say the location is beautiful would be an understatement. Outside of and away from the ring, there doesn't seem to be much else, With the exception of a dense kelp forest just south of the village ring, which you can easily surmise is a source of food for the community, all you see are what appear to be large nets scattered about. close examination, and you see that the nets are all approximately 100 ft cubes, and they are fastened to the seabed, the nets are filled with fish, and you realize this is a sort of farm, and these nets are pens used to house livestock.

At least you can get word to someone like us if there is a problem. Sorry.. I don't mean t lecture it is just that uniting races has been a bit of a thing for us, well attempting too."
Falco is happy to look around and head back to the boat when the others do. __________________________ CURRENT SPELLS: 4th - Cure Critical (D) / Protection from Energy (2/2) / Dimensional Anchor 3rd - Water Breathing (1/1) / Cure Serious (D) / Bestow Curse / Dispel Magic / Blindness Deafness 2nd- Lesser Restoration / Resist Energy / Cure Moderate (D) / Silence / Zone of Truth 1st- Bless / Cure Light Wounds (D) / Endure Elements (2/2) / Shield of Faith / Comprehend Languages C - Detect Magic / Light / Mending / Purify Food and Drink

Elyas joins Rolth and Kiwina in exploring the community a bit more. He is very excited to see this community as it is so different than the ones he knows well above the waves. it is incredibly interesting to him to see how some things (like the livestock pens) are analogous of life in any other town, but all have their own unique spin.
He thoroughly enjoys the time spent in this place.

Wil is unlucky in the fact that the voices in his head haven't gone away. He swims a bit awkwardly as he tries to negotiate with the ones still uncomfortable with the transition. "I'm not much for trusting either, " Wil says. "Anything we can do to help secure that there are some trustworthy creatures in the Wold. I know a couple." He winks and smiles.
Outside of his trouble, he does manage to enjoy exploring with the others. He is also looking for anyone interested in a game of chance. "A gold piece for a good guess. I roll a 20-sided die. A "9" is my next roll going to be higher or lower? Pardon me, may I gamble here? Is that ok?"

Rolth nods along in agreement with Falco's heartfelt statements, and is in awe of the splendor of this place overall. "I hope that you will say hello if we ever share the same seas again, or even come and visit us if you arrive in one of our harbors one day. The Wold will be a better place if all folk join together in common purpose to strive for the good of each other."

Kiwina thanks the merfolk for their hospitality. He isn't one to talk trade arangements, but suspects there are some taurs on the islands around who might trade for fish.

Ayotnom also goes with Rolth and Kiwana to explore the community more. He takes in the interesting sights and says, "Normally I would agree with Falco but you folks have that kelp garden that has ocean fauna from around the Wold. Be careful who you share that information with. I would speculate some might want to exploit it considering it is unusual to have all those samples in the same area where things are different all over the Wold."

Tsak tags along as the group explores the Mer-village. He's impressed that a village that has remained so isolated is so welcoming.
