I had a very embarrassing performance last night at the Etting, was happy that I saw the request to go and travel to Kundar and do some Intel collection. So i went to Rivaan's Winery to offer my services. Once I arrived I saw lots of dragon born working in the vineyards. On the door i was directed to the sitting room and got told that Rivaan will be with me soon; Myself getting bored took out my Lyre and started playing a tune, seeing that Igrainne the Half Drow came in with a nod towards me she pulled out a flute and joined me, soon after a couple of Halflings appeared One that looked really young called Urso and Jacinta the who looked like a capable ranger, Urso joined in too with his curious looking instrument.
Soon after Arkadius a brimstone smelling Tiefling came in, and Theo the suspiciously Drow looking High elf Mage. We were offered delicious wine; and Arkadius kept complaining about the music ( That Devil would never know good music even if it slaps him on the forehead).
Rivaan who was somewhat a portly dragon born finally appeared, he listened in to the music before politely gave a signal that he would like to go to business. He explained how In Kundar is ruled by Kobolds and how they treat Dragon born in a really unfavorable way, he asked if we could establish some sort of relation with the resistance groups there that his ears have gotten attention of. After agreement on the price we left. Igrianne, Urso and Jacinta decided to use the slightly expensive but instant teleportation circle while the rest of us decided to travel by Caravan!
My over eagerness to befriend some of the goblins on the caravan by using selective wording of their language backfired badly; for I managed to insult them in an upsetting manner, that they tied me up for a day!. (Arkadius once again being really uncivilized)
Four days later we arrive and we meet the rest of the in front of a temple that has the teleportation circle. Urso mentioned that he met his PAPA?! who works as a bouncer at a tavern called Michelle's in rough district, We decided might as well go where we have friendlier faces. Once we arrived turns out the PAPA was an Orc, he was friendly and said we can go in and get rooms with the bar keep who was a really pale Dwarf Igrainne explained afterwards that he was from the under dark dwarven race. We got rooms and I particularly specified that i wont mind sharing rooms with others except with Arkadius who was really getting on my nerves by then. Everyone went to start speaking with some locals, while i decided to play a song i adapted and thought proper to this city and what i saw of it so far, It went along the lines of :

Oh, imagine a land, In a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where you wander among every culture and tongue
It's chaotic, but hey, it's home
[Instrumental]
When the wind's from the east
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down, stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Kundurian night
[Instrumental]
As you wind through the streets at the fabled bazaars
With the cardamom-cluttered stalls
You can smell every spice
While you haggle the price
Of the silks and the satin shawls
Oh, the music that plays
As you move through a maze
In the haze of your pure delight
You are caught in a dance
You are lost in the trance
Of another Kundurian night
[Instrumental]
Kundurian nights
Like Kundurian days
More often than not are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Kundurian nights
Like Kundurian dreams
This mystical land of magic and sand
Is more than it seems
There's a road that may lead you
To good or to greed through
The power your wishing commands
Let the darkness unfold or find fortunes untold
Well, your destiny lies in your hands
[Instrumental]
Kundurian nights
Like Kundurian days
They seem to excite, take off and take flight
To shock and amaze
Kundurian nights
'Neath Kundurian moons
A fool off his guard could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes
It apparently took the liking of quite a few of the patrons in particulary a Kobold who after the song, I went and spoke to him and found out his name was Dot. That's when i noticed guys were leaving the tavern following some dragon born as i found out when inquired by a spell. Seeing that it didn't attract the attention of anyone else i followed!
At some point while following through the crowds we heard a shout from behind us. Seeing that the Dragon born bolted and disappeared I looked behind to see a couple of Kobolds with spears and to mage looking Kobolds riding on a the back of an Ogre. We fought valiantly, except for Arkadius who made him self more of an easy target and almost got killed in the process ( Damn my tendancies to help people!) we took them out and Urso somehow managed to find the dragonborn who acted as if its all part of the plan, he connected us with few small groups of resistance! Seeing that we done our jobs we decided to head back and give our intel to Rivaan. ( Side Note to self will definetly come back here, the enchanting skills they have here are amazing;will try using in future experiments)
