Chapter 1: Wherein the Protagonists Meet at an Inn

[Joe the Rat]

muddle searches around the fireplace and chimney

Muddle finds a loose brick, which covers a small hollow. Whatever was kept here is long gone, however.

Selene fumbles for the keys and pulls them out of her pocket. She walks over to the trunk and examines it for traps before trying the keys.

"Allow me" she says to Saeloria.

OOC: I'd totally forgotten about those keys!

After careful inspection, Selene finds no traps.

The iron key with the eight-pointed star looks closest in style to the lock on the chest, but the tumblers do not match up.

Selene needs more practice. The lock refuses to budge.

The cook returns from the kitchen with a bowl of stew for Hamish.

(OOC: Did anyone pick up the map from downstairs?)

[Hywaywolf]

yes, we picked up the map

Selene, stands and calls out "Muddle, can you take a look at this?"

[Hywaywolf]

muddle takes a closer look at the trunk and discusses with selene what she tried and what she thinks prevented her from opening it. Armed with this info, he attempts to pick the lock.

This is far and away the most stubborn and difficult lock you have ever encountered. It refuses to open.
