@,

Shadow gulped down his drink and said,

"I'll  take it, but I'll wait for more volunteers, before heading out. If none shows up I think I can handle it."

He took off his armor and threw them into a portal and pulled out his cloak. 

"Since I'm off duty, I just wear this instead."

[Guest]

@@reader8363,

 

"Yes, YES. Thank you for your help. Hang on, let me get you something."

 

Inn keep ducked behind the counter and took out a small amulet. It was a crystal ball, set in a barred metal sphere. He rested it on the tabletop. 

 

"This is the holy hand grenade. First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe"

 

He waited a bit to observe the guard's reaction before chuckling abit.

 

"Nah, just kiddin ya. This here thing's a beacon. Just push the button on top and it's companion orb which i have under the table will glow and pull in the direction of your orb. To put it in simple terms, it's sorta like a 'help me' button."

 

Inn Keep stared at it for a while, his eyes drifting off in distant memory. 

 

"Got it at a market on a trip to the desert. Saved my life once."

[Sporemane 546]

Agaricus entered the Inn and looked around. "What a peculiar group of ponies." He thought to him self, as he searched for the Inn keeper. Recognizing the Inn keeper he trotted hastily towards the counter. "Greetings and salutations, I am Agaricus Mycelium Sporemane I am here for the shroom I ordered."

@@Sporemane, 

 

"Ah yes, come on in. The shrooms you ordered are out back in the stores; I'll go fetch em' for you."

 

Inn Keep poured a tankard of regular beer by pure instinct and set it on the counter. After realising what he had done, he added: 

 

"While you're here, why don't you have a drink, this one's on the house. Mingle abit. After all, it's gonna take me a while those jars. Now that i think of it, i should get to organising the storeroom some day."

 

The earth pony disappeared behind an abnormally large, heavy and thick door behind the counter, seeming to take a larger amount of effort to open this door than he would any other. The door's wood seemed to contrast highly with the rest of the Inn for reasons yet to be told.

@,  @@Sporemane,

Shadow grabbed the orb and said as he placed into a bag,

"A beacon huh, won't hurt to have one just in case I run into problems."

Then he looked at the newcomer. He said as he drew his whole front legs into his cloak,

"If you don't mind me asking, what do you need shrooms for? 

[child of the night 271]

Spirit made her way down the halls of the castle and eventually turned into her private chambers. Knowing that very few ponies including only some of her closest guards could enter the room she took off the dress and fell onto the bed sighing comfortably. Knowing that there wasn't supposed to be any appointments for awhile she fell into a light sleep.

[Sporemane 546]

"Thank you very much kind sir." Agaricus looked at the pitcher of bear in front of him. He did not order the drink, but after a hard day of work it was excalty what he needed. "On the house you say, well I can't object to that now can I." Agaricus shoved his mussel into the pitcher of beer. That had just bin placed on the counter and ferociously drank from it. As the Inn keeper disappeared, through the large door.

 

Being interrupted from his drink. Agaricus pulled his face from the pitcher and began to answer the cloaked figures question. "I am in need of special mushrooms with medicinal properties." He said while licking the foam from the beer off his snout. "I am a Potion Brewer, I was working on an order for the Castle. When I ran out of Mushrooms. So I came here to pick up some more. So I can finish my order for the Castle." He then looked at the figure siting next to him. "You don't look like most ponies I've seen, if you don't mind me asking what are you?"

Summer had pulled her self up now and was somewhat drunk (she be a lightweight), "yeah w..what...be up...with ya leeegs hugh?" she now pointed to Agaricus, "you you an...farm pony...whats I mean is...you from farm f...family, cose I thinks you aare, I...I be a Orange my myself yyyess." With that her head collapsed on the bar, "ss...soory being ru rude i'll be sush." She wasn't steady on her stool and kept either burping or giggling.

The storeroom's door creaked open and Inn Keep emerged from the darkness, carrying a large basket covered with cloth. Oddly enough, there was a small scroll on the basket, it's pages yellowed in age and it's sides slightly tattered in wear.

 

He walked over and set it on the counter.

 

"Here are your shrooms, hopefully all accounted for. Oh, and before I forget, I have a favour to ask of you."

 

Using delicate hooves, he picked up and opened the scroll, showing it to Agaricus.

 

"While searching for the mushrooms, I came across a scroll I had acquired many, many years ago from a Travelling merchant."

 

He placed it on the table.

 

"It's a recipe for a very powerful serum, I believe the merchant called it a... 'Stim-pak'. A chemist like you should be able to understand the recipe and the procedure to prepare it. Administration via injection, but by the heavens it works wonders; I've seen it for myself"

 

He chuckled abit. "It instantly heals critical injuries, not completely though, just enough to pull you away from the brink of death."

 

His expression darkened slightly. "Just that... One of it's most important components is... pony blood. I was hoping that you could find a way around that ingredient. But other than that, the rest of it should be easy enough for you."

@,

Shadow looked at the  drunk pony and said as he reached into a portal,

"If ya like, I can give ya something that can help with ya being drunk. I never tested on myself, causeI'm rarely drunk. So do ya  want to take the offer."

He grabbed a small vial and held it with one of his metal claws.the liquid was altering it colors between red, black, and white

Tempest watched the potion vendor from a distance and if any pony so much as thought about attacking him, he would be sure to step in. "If those potions are for the tournament, then this should be interesting to say the least." He thought. To be honest, the bat pony hoped he would be one of the last fights in the elimination round. He had a few surprises that he didn't want to show unless it was necessary.

Gale tensed as she heard her mother's voice and tried not to make it obvious that she was nervous. The dragoness knew she was at the proper age for marriage to become a possibility, yet she had shown no interest in anypony in particular and she doubted that anypony would show interest in her. She then walked out of her room and gave her mother a slight glance. "I was about to come down. What is going on?" She asked.

Clayton sighed as he walked into the inn and noticed the amount of people that were already there. He then sat down at the bar and gave a slight smirk. "I might as well have some sake if you have any." He said. The blacksmith then noticed Tempest and gave a slight kid. "Captain."

@@Acnologia,

 

"Sake, eh? Exquisite choice. I'm guessing that you're not from around these parts?" Rambled Inn Keep as he opened up a cabinet and pulled a clear bottle of sake along with a small shot glass. He then arranged them on a tray and set them in front of Clayton.

 

"I'd be careful with this one, though. The one kind of Rice Wine i keep stocked has quite the power in it."

[Acnologia 167]

 

Clayton smirked slightly and poured himself a glass. "To tell you the truth, I just don't like local brews. I actually run a forge not to far from here. Of course, I don't get as much business as usual, but that's to be expected during peacetime, though." He said, before downing his drink. "Not as much of a need for weapons without a way to use them. Am I right?"

Shadow got up and said, as he set the vial down

"I guess I better get going. Catch up if any of you want to come."

As he walked out the door, he stood on his hind legs and used his claws to pull the hood on. He shut the door behind him and started walking to the entrance of the kingdom

Spirit woke with a start not quite knowing how long she had slept. Getting out of the bed she made her way to the closet in the room and made herself once again presentable. Heading out in the opposite direction from the barracks she made her way to the garden found on the castle grounds. Once there she navigated the hedge maze until she reached the center where there was a small fountain surrounded by seats. Spirit entered the area and sat on one of the seats fiddling with a rose she had picked on the way there.

 

@@Drago Ryder,

 

"Gale honey I want you to attend the festivities that will be held today and tomorrow. Also to celebrate your eighteenth birthday we set up a very special thing for you." Mother said this and turned to father who was standing just behind her. He nodded for her to continue so she turned back to Gale, "We set it up with the queen that you shall be a special guest during the upcoming tournament."

Gale was relieved to say the least and a wide smile formed on her lips. "Thank you both. You two have done so much for me." She said, nuzzling both of her parents.The dragoness was a bit curious as to what would happen during the tournament and was excited about the upcoming festivities.

@@Drago Ryder,

 

Mother nuzzled Gales head and then stepped back to look at her. "Now the festivities are tomorrow but you still have to get ready, do you even know what your going to be wearing? You are meeting with the queen after all, it's not every day that you are an honored guest of the queen."

[Sporemane 546]

Agaricus looked away from the the drunk pegasus. Then placed his attintion on the Inn keeper. "Aw thank you for the shrooms! With these I can finally finish my work." Agaricus grabbed the scroll and began to read through it. Placing a hoof under his chin he responded to the Inn Keeper. "Hmm... A Stim-Pak you say... It's a rather unusal name. The recipe dose not seem very difficult." Scratching the top of his head with his hoof. "I would prefer not having to resort using pony blood. Perhaps I can create a substitute, from any of the left over shrooms. After I complete my order." Placing the scroll in his bag, he began to trot out of the Inn. "Thank you for the scroll. I will report my findings if I am successful."

 

Finished with his conversation, with the Inn Keep. Agaricus placed his attention on the guard that had escorted him to the Inn."I no longer require your services. I shall now return to my Lab and finish the order." After bowing quickly, to the guard. He left the Inn and began to make his way back to his Lab.

Gale's eyes widened as the possibilities of the outfits she could wear tomorrow ran through her head. "No. I'll have to get on that right away." She said. To be honest, this was the most excited the dragoness had ever been. It was all a bit overwhelming as well and could feel herself get lightheaded.

Mother steadied her daughter with her side and then pushed her in the direction of her room, "Now go and find yourself an outfit. You must have something you would like to wear." Mother turned around and trotted back towards the table, "If you need to go geta new dress please tell us before heading out."

Summer was not feeling alright at all something was different she knew she could not handle her liquor well but this drink had gone straight to her head, her balance got worse and she tried to use her wings and tail to balance of the stool with little success and proceeded to fall of it and with a thud knocked herself out when her head hit the floor.

[Drago Ryder 641]

@child of the night

Gale snapped out of her thoughts as her mother gave her a helpful nudge and nodded. "Ok. Thanks again you two." She said, before heading back up to her room. She then basically dove into her closet and began sifting through all the clothes and accessories she had.

@Sporemane

Tempest glanced at Clayton. "Can't wait to see you in the tournament." He said, before following Agaricus via rooftop. He knew when to be stealthy and now was definetly the time.

Clayton moved out of his chair and helped the downed mare into a nearby booth. "Easy there. You need to be careful about drinking to much." He said. The unicorn then glanced at Inn Keep. "Could you get her a glass of water. She'll need something to dull the drink."

[Guest]

Inn Keep rushed out of the inn after Shadow and yelled after him.

 

"The shipment should be found along the northeast trade route! Through a forest!"

 

Satisfied that Shadow had ( probably heard him ), Inn keep returned, only to see a very Drunken Summer.

 

"Ho ho, better draw the curtains. Ponies peek in and see some stallions with a lone, drunk mare might get the wrong idea" Inn keep joked.

 

As per Clayton's request, Inn Keep had prepared a small jug of water and a cup to go with it within seconds and placed it on the both'a table.

 

"Ya know, she could tide over in one of the rooms upstairs, this place is an inn after all, but then again, a portion of my patrons do enjoy partying in the state she is in."
