When the party entered Rqurk's it was a mess, piles of books everywhere. boxes with opened potions mixed together with new ones. Three arrows laying on the bed with a broken bow at the entrance. The last time they were here it wasn’t this bad.
“ Come on Raqurk this can’t keep happening. This is the third time your house is in this mess.” Kurmod scolding him.
“Come on, it's not so bad.”
“Yes, it is Raqurk. How do you live in this mess? We cleaned it last week!”
“Now, Kurmod cut him some slack, we do use his House as a storage.” said Bardy Bearhart, the 4th party member, a small halfling, while he was looking for some mana potions in the kitchen cupboard.
"Fine!"
To prepare for the dungeon they grabbed their respective pouch belts and each put in 2 potions. Raqurk put on a backpack to carry extra stuff, like: bandages, scrolls and more.
Amerynna grabbed the arrows on the bed and those scattered around the room. while Kurmod grabbed his shield and a sword of iron with gems inserted in the hilt and blade that made it seem like more of a cosmetic item than a real sword. With this they were ready to leave the messy house and prepare to go to the dungeon.

----------------------------------------
When they went through the door there was a commotion going on at the marketplace. Barrels were thrown over, tents ripped and apples were rolling around everywhere. A horde of shop owners were chasing a group of presumably thieves right at the Party.
“Stop those thieves” one of the men shouted.
This was enough for Raqurk to use one of his skills. Roots sprung out of the ground binding the thieves to the ground or causing them to trip. Only one made it past this but he was quickly knocked out by a simple smash with kurmod's shield. Causing him to pass out.
Out of breath the shop owners came to a halt.
“Thank you for stopping them” the same person who shouted, gasped between breaths“ We could have never caught up with them if you weren’t there. “
“We were just at the right place at the right time.” said Amerynna.
“no no, thank you for stopping them.”
a group of guards came rushing over to see that the thieves were already stopped. Raqurk waited for them to be close enough before releasing them from the root grasp. They were picked up one by one by different guards.
“You know what the punishment is for theft." one of the guards said to the thief he held.
A person in fully geared armor who was the leader came up to the party and thanked them profusely before taking off to put the thieves behind lock and bars.
“Come follow us, we will give you some things for what you just did” some of the stall owners said pushingly.
“it really is not needed.”
“don’t worry it’s on us, you deserve this.” they kept insisting.
Some shop owners brought a few pieces of fruit, while others got some green potions they said were weak antidotes or a small dagger. Even though the party insisted they didn’t need it they reluctantly took the items.they stuffed the food items in the bag for later in the dungeon. They took 2 antidote potions and put them on their belts with Raqurk also taking the dagger for close quarter combat as his last one broke. Even though the dagger wasn’t anything special it could help in tense situations , when they were preparing food or skinning monsters. When the Shopkeepers finally stopped prasing and thanking the party and went back to assess damages and fix their stalls the party said goodbye and this time really left for the dungeon.
The ride there took 15 minutes as they got to ride a caravan that went to refill the outpost anyways. The roads were bumpy, but the nature and mountains were always a beautiful sight to see. Once they arrived at the outpost they saw some of the guards preparing to switch positions with a crate of personal belongings ready to be moved out when the caravan left first thing in the morning. Like Marcus the party needed to show their belongings before they could enter. but as they were known by the guards at the outpost they were quickly let through. Even though they were a party of six they made sure to check the dungeon entrance for any signs of the dungeon having more loot or being more dangerous than normal. Unlike Marcus they spotted both. They knew they had to be more careful whilst in the dungeon because of this. and so they entered the dungeon, causing all chests to be remade and refilled.
**Marcus**
After finally defeating the hobgoblin, Marcus went to loot the chest and destroy it for extra wood. Not much important was in the chest except for some food and potions, But he took everything with him because he didn't know what he might need to survive down here.
He had stood up and started turning around when he heard a thud from the spot where the chest he had just destroyed was. When he went to look he saw an entirely new chest had appeared. Smeone had entered the dungeon. He had a chance of making it out of there.
