Leim grab a dark blue tunic and pants and pulled them on he left his wraps on his feet and hands. “Now I don’t have to worry about catching a cold now.” he smiled and kick at the air and jab at the air.
He kneeled beside the wastebasket and started read all the crumbled papers inside taking them out and throwing them on the bed as he finish.
“You think these rooms belong to the warriors who died out there with the fire demon?” once he finishes with the can he flipped it over to make sure he didn’t miss anything.

Leim looked at the ring and check for an engraving or a dedication on it. He look threw the ring hole and sighed ticking in a fold of one of his wrapped hands. He then went to the wardrobe looking threw it. “Well we have a ring and some books about magic.” he searches the closet for something in his size. Hearing Leim's words Cedric startles. He goes to meet Leim and asks, "Show me the ring, please" Elliot, can Cedric find any pecularities in the ring?He glances through the books. Elliot, any extra-ordinary language - any spells in them?

Leim
There is nothing useful in the waste bin.
Cedric
Leim is the person who has the ring. Unless he hands it to you, I am afraid you cannot interact with it.
The books on the shelves contain no spells.

Leim jump back threw some of the crumble up papers in Cedric’s face as he reach for his arm and the ring.
“Who the hell are you and why are you grabbing at stuff that don’t belong to you.. “He brought his foot up to kick him square between the legs. (Consider it a combat move if ya must) “You better get your ass back up over with Rasi-dono or I am going shove a glass shard in your ass..” Leim pulls one of the crude glass knifes he made earlier to show he meant it.

Seeing Cedric move past him through the door, Rasidar frosts over with annoyance. Rasidar looks to Stelrein quickly.
"Stelrein, I require you to stay with the group until called for," Rasidar says. "Cedric has gone forth, even though `tis only the scouting party who may enter. I must deal with this matter myself, before he endangers the scouting party. No one else is to follow unless I or the scouting party give the word."
Rasidar follows Cedric at his best speed. He sees Mao in the next room, and looks to her with concern.
"Mao, I wish you to accompany me," he says. "My apologies, but `twould seem Cedric has broken ranks."
Rasidar hears voices in the next room. He follows them into the room where Leim and Cedric are standing. Rasidar immediately grows cold and approaches Cedric.
"Explain yourself, Cedric, immediately!" Rasidar demands. "Only the scouting party was allowed beyond the demon room. This was made clear to the group earlier. What if there had been some sort of foe in this room? Or some trap you had sprung? You could have endangered the entire scouting party just by being here. I admire initiative, but I shall not tolerate a direct breach of discipline.
"If you wished to accompany them, `tis well and good. But you shall not do so without clearing your intentions with either Stelrein, Mao, or myself beforehand. Are we absolutely clear on this?"
Rasidar stands firm, waiting for Cedric to explain himself...

(Back from the beginning) ----------------------------------------------------------- he turns his head & his smile at Mao, "young miss..." he hisses, "can you pick up any scent? your ........ keen sense of smell must be dulled by death," he looks back to the dead bodies strewn all over. Mao is perplexed by Homm's attitude and words. She looks at him suspiciously but doesn't answer anything. He seems physically ok, which was the most important at the moment; however Mao feels there is still something wrong with him, as if he changed completely since he fell unconscious. Her attention is drawn back completely on the corridor and her scouting party by Ash's call. Mao looks in the weird corridor when Ash shows her and let them go on their initiatives, keeping an eye on to stop them should she feel the need to or come to help if needed. When Ash and Loriana come to report there is no trap, she is about to ask them if there seems to be light, activity, people or whatever clues about the room but they both go back in the corridor to open the first door, as soon as they came. Feeling it could break their cover should there be someone, Mao simply knits her eyebrows and let it flow; it was too late anyway and she'd have the occasion to warn them later... When they tell them that the path and the first room seem safe, she motions to Leim to come investigate the first room. She goes in the room too, observes but stays beside the doorway to be able to keep an eye on her tree fellows. Mao lifts her thumb up to leim and checks what there is in the basket and in the clothes there, pockets, and everything. (Elliot, what does she find see, and can you tell me more about the room, furniture, objects in, etc.?) When Leim tells her about the ring and books of magic, Mao answers: "Great! Will be useful..." As she's about to add something Leim had already investigated the wardrobe and was putting on a robe he found. Really, her teammates were strong on initiative, she thinks, grateful that Rasidar was assigned as leader... "Careful & tone down, please..." Mao begs Leim, seeing how noisy and uncautious, indelicate he acts. "Well, this room belongs to a mage for sure..." Mao starts to answer. As she's about to say that they should show that to Cedric, he enters in the room and asks Leim to show him the ring. "Hey!" Mao halts in a firm tone to Leim. This fellow is a real wolverine, she thinks. As she's going to approach to intervene, Rasidar arrives at the door. Mao gives him an eloquent sympathizing look, showing that she understands and is in the same kind of situation, and nods. While Rasidar goes to Cedric, she goes to Leim and puts her hand gently on his arm to grab his attention. "Cedric is skilled with these magic things," she tells him in a soft but firm voice. "Draw that back please, he's part of the team and had no intention to threaten you," she adds motioning at the glass shards he holds.

Loriana steps into the room, drawn in by the hope that there was clothing that she and the other women could wear. She giggles at the teddy bear, smiling broadly. She goes to one of the wardrobes and opens it.
(E - what does she find?)
She looks at the pictures to see what they are of. She also looks at the titles of the books, hoping that one may be about magic.
(E - what's in the pictures and what kinds of books are there?)

Mao
The room is already fully described. There is nothing of interest in the wash basket, and far too much that stinks of stale sweat.
Loriana
The wardrobe is packed with female clothing. The books are all primers on basic magecraft. Many notes have been written in the margins in a small, neat hand. The pictures are of a middle aged man and a woman who looks only slightly younger. Both are the work of a skillful painter, though not a master. The frames themselves are silver.

Loriana examines the hand written notes carefully, to see if there is anything she can gleam to help her remember her magic.
"Hey Ash, there's clothing!" She then goes to the wardrobe and pulls out a blue dress. She quickly puts it on. She looks for a belt, but if she doesn't find one, she equips the crude belt she made.

Stelrein nods to Rasidar. He stays, keeping an eye on the others as well as down the hallway.

Leim Easy back and he slid the knife back in the wraps as Rasidar started the dressing down of Cedric. Leim crouched as he put his elbow on his knee and watch. “This country is a full weirdo.”
“I am not giving the ring to anyone but Mao-san or Rasi-dono cause the rest of you are clearly insane.,” he grumble a bit hoping this ring was great after all this trouble.
“If Sin-drip wants to look at the ring he should wait till we bring it back to the safe room not getting in the way.’ he sighed a bit.
”We still have a lot of work to do and he holding it all up cause he thinks he boss.” he wave a finger in the air at Cedric.
“Why don’t you go help the girls they need some one to slow them down.” He started waving his hand at Cedric as if he was a bad child and being told to go to his room.

Ash stands in the doorway of the room across the corridor from Mao and Leim watching what is going on. She shakes her head and then looks at Lor who is busy looking at what the room contains.
She stands there waiting until all the commotion is over and then asks "Mao which door do you want me to check out next? I can do that will you guys search these room."

Loriana
The wardrobe contains belts to match the outfits.
It would take you may hours to go through all the books. The note-writer was clearly very obsessive about every tiny little detail - which is not always a bad thing in a mage, you remember.

Loriana fits her pouches onto a sturdy belt to match her new dress. Then she fits the belt snugly around her waist. It felt good to be wearing clothes again. Then she looks for footwear.
She decides it would take too much time to look through the books now so moves on to the writing table and searches it for anything interesting.
She looks up to see Ash in the doorway, "Ash? Don't you want to come in and put on some clothes?" Loriana had heard the commotion in the other room, but decided not to get involved.

Leim jump back threw some of the crumble up papers in Cedric’s face as he reach for his arm and the ring. “Who the hell are you and why are you grabbing at stuff that don’t belong to you.. “He brought his foot up to kick him square between the legs. (Consider it a combat move if ya must) “You better get your ass back up over with Rasi-dono or I am going shove a glass shard in your ass..” Leim pulls one of the crude glass knifes he made earlier to show he meant it.
The instinctive evasive move Cedric made when the papers flew in his face lead to Leim's kick missing. The boy's aggresive response to his simple request surprised him, but when threatened with the glass shard, his gaze froze and his mind focused on teaching the insolent a club lesson.
"Hey!" Mao halts in a firm tone to Leim. ... As she's going to approach to intervene, Rasidar arrives at the door.
Cedric turned his head - he had overlooked Mao in his eagerness about the books and the ring.
While Rasidar goes to Cedric, she goes to Leim and puts her hand gently on his arm to grab his attention.
Cedric sees the hard, determined expression on Rasidar's face.
"Explain yourself, Cedric, immediately!" Rasidar demands. "Only the scouting party was allowed beyond the demon room. This was made clear to the group earlier. What if there had been some sort of foe in this room? Or some trap you had sprung? You could have endangered the entire scouting party just by being here. I admire initiative, but I shall not tolerate a direct breach of discipline.
"If you wished to accompany them, `tis well and good. But you shall not do so without clearing your intentions with either Stelrein, Mao, or myself beforehand. Are we absolutely clear on this?"
Rasidar stands firm, waiting for Cedric to explain himself...
"Yes, your wish is absolutely clear to me, Knight..." But then the full impact of Rasidar's concerns hit Cedric's mind. Cedric took a deep breath and acknowledged, "I was rash, you are right Rasidar - all this commotion in the hallway and their talking made me forget the dangers that may yet lurk here. And hearing of magic books - you cannot imagine how I feel lost having forgotten all my spells! Yes, your request is a reasonable one, I willl retreat and excercise patience."
”We still have a lot of work to do and he holding it all up cause he thinks he boss.” he wave a finger in the air at Cedric.
“Why don’t you go help the girls they need some one to slow them down.” He started waving his hand at Cedric as if he was a bad child and being told to go to his room.
Cedric turns towards Leim. "I'll excuse myself for my rashness, and for having disturbed your search. But, Boy, you better refrain yourself in your words - you haven't proven yet that your are up to your claimed abillities, and however great they may be, you, as we all, will need all the help you can get." With that he turns around, about to leave the room to return to his original position.

Loriana
No shoes in this wardrobe.
Among the papers on the writing desk you find a single spell, neatly written in the same hand as the notes on the books:
Heal - lvl 1 - costs 10 mana, heals 5 Health
GM Note: Any and all spell casters may learn this spell, but you must take the few minutes it requires to do so. In other words, once Loriana announces it is found (If she does) you must post here saying that you are learning the spell as a character action. Only then can you add it to your 'Known Spells' section on your character sheet.

Rasidar nods, listening carefully to Cedric's explanation. He realizes Cedric meant no harm, and his expression softens somewhat.
"Aye, `tis an understandable thing," Rasidar says. "We have all lost something precious to us in our slumber. Would that I could commune with the Great Mana, for `twould be a boon upon us in these times. `Tis only natural that you would miss the call of your Art.
"From now on, I would ask only that you consider before you act, in future. I assure you, you shall have every opportunity to examine the things of magic before we are done. Your expertise is valuable to us. If ever you wish to join a scouting party, you have but to ask. But there is a time and place, and `tis most unwise to rashly blunder forth. I trust you understand that now.
"However, `twould seem there was no harm done for now," Rasidar concludes. "Return to the others for the present. You may freely examine the materials when the scouting party has concluded its work."
He watches Cedric walk off, and then looks to Mao.
"`Twould seem that all is under control once more," Rasidar says to Mao. "Think you that the outside passageway is safe? If so, I can move the party forward while you search. If not, I would be more than happy to leave you to continue your work. However, `twould perhaps be best for me to bring some of these clothes back for the others."
Rasidar grabs several sets of outfits, one for each of the men in the group. While waiting for Mao to respond, he puts on his own clothes, and reapplies his makeshift armor. He listens to Mao attentively for any input she may have.

Leim laugh a bit and sighed “Haven’t ever had anyone help in my whole life.” he stood and stretch his arms and legs. As he stood properly again. “Don’t expect anything different to happen now.” he turns to the chest in room and start knocking on it acting if nothing ever happen.
Sniffed it and listen to it to make sure nothing was moving around inside and open the lid when he figure it was all clear. He looks back and saw the matching clothing now on Rasidar he frowns a bit.
“You know in my Village people didn’t wear the same colors unless they were clan.” his nose twitch. “Or you earn the right to wear the garb of a true shinobi of the village.” he didn’t know if he wanted people to confuse him as a member of their weirdo clan that was starting to form around Rasidar.

Mao retains a sigh of relieve when Leim put his glass shards back in the wraps. Even though he grumbles a bit, the storm seems to be past.
She listens quietly to Rasidar and Cedric's explanations. As Rasidar concludes and Cedric turns back to join the rest of the group in the demon's room, Mao tells them: "Leim is right; you should take the ring, books and papers back with you to examinate."
"Ash said there didn't seem to be any trap though she couldn't say for sure; I don't know where she's at at the moment, but will let you know as soon as you guys could come forward." Mao replies. "Aside from traps... should there be foes here, they're long aware of our presence anyway," she adds rolling eyes.
While Rasidar puts on clothes, Mao notices Leim about to check in the chest. "Ah, great, let's see what's in there; but wait, check for traps before opening," she tells him, not knowing if he's skilled to find traps or not, but doubting it is so by his previous words about it. Thinking about Ash who is, she looks at the doorway and sees her waiting there.
Mao motions to Ash to come by. "Could you check if it's trapped, please?" she asks her showing the chest. "What did you find thus far?" she adds in order to determinate what they should do next.
Mao decides that she'd find clothes for herself later; there are other priorities and what she has now will do as well as the kinds of clothes there are in the wardrobe for the moment.
