*Greghoul catches the sunrod and raises an eyebrow at Gem*
"If that is some sort of invatation I'll pass. I've seen the abominations that mortal promiscuity can produce, and more than half of them I've had to slay. Besides, there is only one I'm interested in is on another plane of existance, and as soon as I can I'm going back to get her"
*Greghoul stands ready to receive further orders*

Gem looks up from Keely, back towards Greghoul and says:
"Offspring... Kids?... Who's talking about anything like that..."
(Gemstone thinks to herself: "As if I would allow a male to have intercourse with me.")
Then she continues:
"I mearly suggested that you be a little more cautious with my Sunrod... The way you spat it out, onto the ground earlier, it could have been damaged... Unlike most, this one is reusable... I mearly asked that you be a little more cautious with it... That's all."
Gemstone then thinks to herself:
"Hmm... His idea of fun probably isn't what mine is anyway.... I do so love to party every now and then, but he is probably a fuddy ol' stick-in-the-mud anyway... Too bad... **Gem cuts a glance over toward Avana, and arches an eyebrow... then lowers it** ... Naw, I get bad vibes from her sometimes, I can't put my finger on it, but she probably doesn't want to party either..."
As Avana speaks, Gemstone nods her head, then says:
"I concur with Avana, that is well thought out... I also think that would be our best option... Crista, what do you say?"
Gemstone then tries to wake Keely again.

*Greghoul sighs*
"Females, they can say one thing but make you think another, nowonder the few that are in the guild have such powerful positions"

"When you consider the alternative, it's hardly a surprise, " Keely says as she sputters herself to consciousness.
"What the <censored> was that?"

*If Iggy puts on the cloak, no one will be able to see him.....yeppers, cloaks of invisibility. And the scroll cases contain one scroll with 6 "Cure Disease" spells, while the other has 5 "Raise Dead" spells.*
*Crista was already checking the door for any traps, but, to her surprise, found none, however, it is locked. Taking out her lock picks, she chooses two, places them into the doorlock, gently moving them a little bit this way, a little bit that way, and wallah!!, the lock clicks open. She then looks back at her comrades and catches bits and pieces of the rather randy conversation going on.* "Now then ......ladies, will ye be coming along then, or staying here to compare beauty tips? Greghoul, me pet, I know yer itching to move on....Oi, someone get that dammed dwarf offin her back!!
*Crista grabs the door handle, but the door is sticking* Greghoul....today would be nice of ye
---------------------------------------------------------------------
*On the other side of the door is a 30' x 40' room, the ceiling is 70' high with wooden beams going east to west across it. The walls are of solid stone, no windows, and in the center is a 6' round fire pit, over it hangs a very large cauldron (at least 2 people could fit inside of it). There is liquid in the cauldron, bubbling, with no discernible odor.
On the northern wall, there is a fireplace, with a wooden fire burning in it. By this fireplace is a rocking chair in which sits an old crone. She looks up from a tome she is reading when everyone begins to enter the room. In a crackling voice, she greets the party.* Oh deary me, visitors, and I've nothing to serve them....oh my, oh my.....welcome, welcome to my home....please, please, come by my fire and warm yourselves. It's been so very long since I've had anyone to speak with....tell me, where are you from?

*Greghoul plants a firm kick on the door, sending it wide open*
"After you Crista"
*Greghoul bows and lets her go past*

"what are you people daft," Keely retorted before crista entered the place.
"you should at least have a long stick to prod ahead of ya, in case of traps, before entering."

"Wellity well wells, looks what we have here... Invisimability cloaks, I'd wager, and Iggy's wager is worth a great deal o' money, heheheh..."
Ignitius then passes out the cloaks to the assembled party members ("Six of 'em, Six o' us...", he thinks), and looks at the cloak he designated for himself.
Once again he makes a disgusted face at the garish (in his mind) blue color of the cloak. Well, nevermind that no one would be able to see him WEARING the cloak, but still...
The genasi wiggles his fingers and magicially changes the cloak's hue to something more to his taste. When he's finished, the cloak now sports Iggy's stylish crimson color, complete with yellow flame patterns along the hem. A cursory glance from those adept at the magicial arts shows that it maintains its original magicial property.
"Heheheh!!! Now THIS here's style!", the mad wizard gloats, swirling the cloak around him (and promptly disappearing from view).

Avana grins as the crazed gensai announced they had found invisibility cloaks. A thing of legend as far as she could tell, it not only saved her from preparing such a spell, but made its powers avaliable whenever she needed it. She swings the cloak onto her shoulders with a flurish and pulls the hood up, as she recognises the effect, another thought crosses her mind ~doesn't this virtually neutralise most of the advantage she has over me?~ She pulls the hood down and becomes visible again. She moves to leave but remembers the garlic also found and triggers a memory... vampires... powerful undead, a protection against which was garlic. Alyssa having found some earlier, it seemed quite certain fate had conspired for the group to have some. If no one else has yet done so, she collects some. Arriving in the following room she notes its occupant. ~well people are supposed to be my thing~ she considers, and speaks.
"We've just come down to see whats here, explorers we are," she speaks with an odd dialect.
She assesses the woman carefully...

*Greghoul looks at the cloak with disgust*
"bah, a fighter like me has no business sneaking about under this"
*Greghoul hands the cloak back to Iggy*
"I'll go just ahead of you all to attract the eyes that see more than they should, that way you can take advantages positions and deal with the foe on your own terms"

Gemstone graciously accepts the cloak from Iggy, giving him a polite curtsy and a "Thank you, m' lord" afterwards.
Gemini thinks to herself:
"Hmm... I really don't have much use for this... But it may come in handy in a pinch."
Gemstone removes her black cloak, and puts on the blue one, but leaves the hood down,... then she puts her black cloak back on over the blue one.
Gemstone stares at Avana curiously as she collects some of the garlic from one of the chests,... A memory suddenly dawns on Gemini:
( When Alera used Read Magic on the piller, it read: "Blood is mine, it makes us _____. Only the _____ will keep _____ at bay. Long is______" )
Gemstone thinks to herself:
"Hmm... garlic?... ... ... Only the... Garlic... will keep... ... Nosferatu?.... at bay......... hmmm,... "Blood is mine, it makes us stronger. Only the garlic will keep nosferatu at bay. Long is the night?.... Ah... Oh Damn!, that's the last thing we need... vampires... I do so hope that I'm wrong about that.... Better to be safe than sorry though..."
Gemstone moves over to the chest where Avana is taking the garlic from,... then, with a serious look, Gemstone gives an acknowledging nod to Avana, and takes two of the bulbs of garlic for herself...
As Avana walks away towards the other room, Gemstone thinks to herself:
"She must be thinking the same thing... hmm... Smart girl... Avana's as sharp as ever... She must have puzzled out the same solution to this conundrum, before me... I knew I liked her for a reason.... Now if she just wasn't so icy all of the time... If she'd just let loose a little, I bet she would be great fun at some of the bashes I go to..."
Gemstone's attention refocuses as others begin to enter the the next room...
She steps up next to Ignitus, and very quietly wispers:
"Carefull, my friend,... The old hag could be a witch, and your magic could prove very usefull if she is... be ready, just in case...
She then dissapears into the shadows... Gemstone moves to the back of the group and waits to see if parley works with the hag.

"Explorers! Oh my, that sounds so exciting. Many a place have you traveled to and seen then? Oh my, Oh my....if only I were young again, but my old bones keep me stuck here. Why, I even have a drat of a time cooking for myself." *She lifts up her hands to show the group her gnarled fingers* "I have a niece that helps me with my needs, but I haven't seen her in two days. You haven't, by any chance, seen a young woman, oh, around the age of 17 about have you. Long, dark hair she has, and the prettiest of smiles....I do hope nothing has gone amiss with her" *She puts her hands down while a look of sadness comes upon her face* "And I am so very hungry too. The soup pot has been ready, but Odessia has still not returned with the main ingredient. I am so very hungry" *The old crone starts mumbling, and you hear a word here and there, "if only.......need my strength......give almost anything......hungry......Odessia", and she lets out a pitiful sigh.*

~If I'm gonna be cynical, I'd say this Odessia was a vampire and the main ingrediant is us.. but lets not jump to conclusions~
"Perhaps we may help thee, should you wish, if you tell us what it is you seek, and perhaps you can help us."

*Greghoul stays by the door and tries to stay out of sight. the last thing he needs on his mind right now is the thought that he has scared an old woman to her death. Greghoul slips back out and waits for every one by the pool so as not to cause trouble*

*The old crone smiled a toothless grin at Avana* Oh you sweet dearie, would you be ever so kind as to help an old soul as myself? You see, my old bones hurt me ever so much, and breathing, well you can here my lungs rattling miles away. All I need to make me feel ever so much better is my soup. See the cauldron over there *One gnarled clawlike hand lifting to point at the large cauldron over the firepit* Garlic soup eases the pain, and I'll be ever so thankful to you if you could just provide me with the garlic for my soup. Do you have any? Oh, I do hope you do, it's been four days since last I've had any, and my bones hurt so very much.
*The old crone looks expectantly at Avana, but Crista spoke up* And what's it worth to ye old woman? Don't be thinking we've kind hearts now. Why should we be giving ye any of our much needed supplies?
*The old crone looked at Crista, leaned back her head and started to cackle. Stopping suddenly, she said,* An eye for a bit of garlic my girl.....a ruby red eye is what you seek, and putting garlic in my soup pot should be payment enough for that nice little gem. So what's it worth to you I ask back?
