Finding a Hideout

Can Wobbit: Can looks at the old house again and was quite satisfied about what he found out, when he hears a soft tapping of hobbit feet behind him
Fiesty Lotus stealthily slides up to Can.
Can Wobbit turns around, seeing Fiesty approaching slowly.
Fiesty Lotus: "Greetins Can."
Can Wobbit: "Greetings Fiesty"

The Abandoned House

Fiesty Lotus: "You got sumthin?"
Can Wobbit: "I think I found something very interesting
Fiesty Lotus: "Good."
Can Wobbit: "this old house seems deserted ..... The front door is locked. "
Fiesty Lotus: "Oh, that be interestin."
Can Wobbit: but I climbed up on the balcony ... and that door ....."   (he grins).
Can Wobbit: “that door they did not lock. It´s open. "
Fiesty Lotus: "Oh my, that was clever."
Can Wobbit: "I explored the house ...... and it seems that it has been a long time, since anyone lived in there."
Fiesty Lotus rubs her hands in glee.
Can Wobbit: "thick layers of dust, and barely furnished, it is ..."
Can Wobbit: "... but I think, it might make a good place to hide for all of us, until we find out more about this town and its inhabitants.”
Fiesty Lotus nods.
Can Wobbit: "Want to get inside, and have a look at the house?
"Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, indeed."
Can Wobbit: "Let me get up to on the balcony again, and see if I can open the front door from inside .... And if not, I´ll pull you up with my rope. "
Can Wobbit looks at the Hobbit .... and smiles:" I don´t think, I´ll be able to throw you up there, little Lady. "

The Balcony

Fiesty Lotus: "I be a hobbit- I kin climb." (grins.)
Can Wobbit: "Let me try to open the front door, before you start climbing ..... People might wake by the bumping sound, if you fall.  "
Fiesty Lotus whispers "OK."
Can Wobbit climbs down the stairs inside the house, and walks across the room to the front door."
Can Wobbit finds a heavy bolt on the door, and slowly pulls it aside.
Can Wobbit: with a gentle shrieking sound, it moves, and gives the door free.
Can Wobbit carefully opens it, just a small gap, and waves Fiesty to come inside"
Fiesty Lotus slides into the house and looks around.
Can Wobbit whispers " See ...”
Can Wobbit: "We will have to put oil on that damn bolt."
Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, hope we can find some."
Fiesty Lotus looks at the dust on the table. She sees the old tattered books and gets excited.

Fiesty Finds the Books

Can Wobbit follows Fiesty´s eyes.
Can Wobbit: "I think there must have been a lored or wise person living in here"
Fiesty Lotus: “Books! We kin see what this world is like from em! This be a find."
Can Wobbit points at the cupboard:" Do you see that brain in the glass, Fiesty?”
Fiesty Lotus looks at what Can is pointing at and shudders.. (She stares at the brain and then turns away.)
Can Wobbit climbs up the stairs again to the upper floor.
Fiesty Lotus follows Can up the stairs.
Can Wobbit: "There´s few windows up here, and pillows and blankets, even a bed."
Fiesty Lotus: "Good, though I would air them mattresses out some."
Can Wobbit: "Maybe at night?”
Can Wobbit steps forward, and jumps on the mattress.
Fiesty Lotus waves her hands at the dust the mattress gives off.
Can Wobbit: a cloud of dust rises from it at once, and makes Can cough.
Fiesty Lotus shakes her head and smiles."

Soft but Dusty

Can Wobbit smiles at Fiesty ... " Soft though." (He adds with a grin).
Can Wobbit: "What do you think, Fiesty, might this make a good hideaway for us all?
Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, it will do fer us. We jest have to be careful."
Can Wobbit: " I agree, it will be difficult, to bring the dragon in here secretly.
Can Wobbit: "And even more difficult, to keep Dangerfae from doing nonsense."
Fiesty Lotus: “Yes, after dark. The dragon may not want to come though. I dunno. We already have them airboats on alert from his messing about."
Can Wobbit: "I think he will come, as soon as Talia will be inside.’
Can Wobbit looks at Fiesty:" We should hurry, to go back to the others, as long as it is dark, I would not want to take too much risk of being discovered."
Can Wobbit: "And we cannot wait too much longer."
Fiesty Lotus: "Alright. The sun is comin up."
Can Wobbit: It´s already beginning to dawn."
Fiesty Lotus: “Let’s go.”
Can Wobbit: "Let´s ... but let me tie a rope to the bolt first, so we can open the door from outside.] Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, a rope be a good idea."

Can finished fixing their entryway and they departed to join the others.

Dawn is Coming
