Ahmeds face still red from the mermaid. "maby he wasnt talking about the oysters Ka'im" he bends down and plocks his tree from the dock and follows the rest of the group chuckling to him self.

... now I have to go to confesion again.. sigh.. I'd better not have to clean the bathrooms again...

"Hi and goodbye Salana.." that's what finally errupts from Rambad's lips, he shakes his head slightly as if just waking up and he blinks for a moment.

.....wow.....

He bends down, picking up an oyster and throws it in the air, smiling slightly before he catches it and places it in his pocket. And so, he doesn't pick up anymore of them, but rather stares out towards the ocean, and then he bows for some reason.

Ka'im finally seems to realize that some have shucked the oysters and found pearls inside.

"Ohhh!"

He grins, a bit sheepishly, at Ahmed, "I see."

He glances at Orman, before speaking again "Lets go find our gear."

I'll wait until we're inside to find out what is in my shells...

Our Fatebound Heros have freed the mermaid, and have collected their rewards. Rambad leaves 2 oysters, part of his share of them, on the docks and so Kasib picks them up and puts them in a pocket. The entire group makes their way back to the Grand Bazaar on the farside of the city. It takes an hour of travel to reach the other side of town, and along the way your wet clothes have mostly dired, while causing uncomfortable chaffing for some of you in unmentionable places. The trip is not spent in silence, and you all converse about the adventure you have just have together. While you wouldn't think it, you seem to get along rather well for such a ragtag group of heros. Along the way you can also open your oysters.

Along the way those opening their oysters appraise the pearls they find within. During the process, both Ahmed and Ka'im slince their hands open, just like Kasib did, not causing much damage, but bruising the ego abit. Each of them had one subborn shell.

Eventually you reach the well and there still waiting with wide eyes his Khalid, the young porter, and The Razor with all of your gear, the mad barber hsn't sold any of you stuff it appears! Thank the gods for that. Babazadeh is still there too, unfortunately and he growls and paces back and froth, still bemoaning his ill fate -- no one seems to listen.

As soon as you are spotted Khalid runs up to you, "Effendis! You return! What news, what happen? You have have been gone so long I feared for you." Yakub, the older barber, puts a hand on Khalid's shoulder, "Not so fast young man, let them gather their things and tell us in their time." The barbar looks at Kasib, the Rawun expentantly to hear the story of what has happened. As Babazadeh rushes over yelling, "My fish! My Genie Fish where is it!?"

"A fish?" the Rawun asks, his face looking quite coy. "I do not know what you're talking about."

Kasib turns to the group, "Do you know what he is talking about? A fish. We certainly did not /actually/ find a fish?"

The Rawun speaks the truth, actually, but does not say anything more to explain his claim.

the priest stop for amoment at the temple they pass on the way and drops one of the pearls into the box. the bigger one

Ahmed says nothing and picks up his gear. He does not check to make sure everying is in its place. He only shakes alittle, to make sure everything that was strapped to his pack is still strapped thier.

"Fish? Bah, all we wound was giant centipedes who wanted us for breakfast..."
says Rambad, being a bit grumpy. He draws his blade, and checks the edge, and to his horror he sees that some slime is still left on it, and he holds it up to show Khalid.

"See? Nasty slime...if the edge is cracked it comes out of your pocket for sending us down there..."

And so Rambad begins to clean his blade, removing all goo he can see, and no crack appears on the blade.

"What?!" Babazadeh looks incredulous. "My genie fish you know what I speak of!" The other two also look a bit confused. Khalid looks over the gooey blade, "If you did not find the fish, and only found insects, then I guess the poor creature is lost! Oh what a shame, it was a beautiful and charming fish." Khalid waders off a bit, stopping to help Ahmed put his things on lost in a melencoly.

Yakub tilts his head, his fez nearly falling from his head until he lifts a hand to hold it in place. "You can not fool the The Razor! There is more to your tale than you speak. We all saw a fish go down that well, I wonder what came out. Come tell us the full story, it may make a good tale to tell me costomers when I give them a shave. At least I had hoped it would." Yakub listens intently. Others gathere up their things, and everything seems in place, the barber did take care of your stuff, and nothing is missing suprisingly. It seems that one of these men is trustworthy enough.

the preist takes the help from Khalid with his things.
"thank you.. thier is a bit more to the storie then just bugs..but, I'm not a story teller. I'm sure one of us would be glade to re-live the tail. But, I will only say this once, whats done is done" he looks at the fisher men, the one that cought the "fish"

"Like I said," starts the Rawun, "We did not see any sort of genie fish." Kasib breaks into a huge smile. "No indeed! We found a Pahari!"

Kasib looks at each of the "group". "Obviously, I honestly have to thank you! He rubs his leg, "Even though I got the wrong end of a centipede stinger! It was worth it."

He leaves out any mention of pearls.
