The Dungeon Master found herself, again, unable to control her speech. "Perception + d20." She seemed to talk to herself, though everyone could still hear. It appeared that her mind was rolling a d20 to see if Aria actually found anyone - who could help at least. "Seventeen." The Dungeon Master smiled.
"Aria stumbled upon a man - rather frail in appearance - running towards them. "M-M-M-MONSTER!" He screeched, pointing from the way he came. "IN THE SEWERS!"." The Dungeon Master tried to talk to them again normally, but it seemed to be taking a lot of strength to do it. She figured if she didn't hint too much, she might get away with it. "Aria, Tong, the way to ... um... finish this quest... is to go to the sewers and.. look arou--" She stopped talking suddenly.

"Charisma+d6. Twenty-Five. Critical." The Dungeon Master had rolled to see if Aria would manage any more information from the bumbling man in front of her. "The man told you his name was Darvis, and he was a budding adventurer. In an attempt to help the King he had found his way into the sewers. "This way!" He called, grabbing Aria's hand. Captain Tong, Aria and Darvis headed into a dark alley between two buildings. There wasn't too much space, not enough for it to be an ambush. "You can get in through here." He pointed down at an odd looking grate in the floor."
