As Moria heads out the front, Ixy looks at his plate. "still a good bit left."
He digs ionto his pack and finds a small water-proofed bag, and puts the left
over into it. Tying the end up, he replaces it, and heads out toward the front.
Seeing that not everyone as come out yet, he makes a final check over his
equipment. First the daggers: their ever-sharp edges gleaming perfectly. both
of them in excellent condition. Now the hand-crossbow. looking good. he cocks
and fires it without ammunition. The cord is fine. 3 extra cords in the pack.
a score of bolts- "A score? I thought I had 40!" he rummages through the pack
some more and eventually finds them. "I must have misplaced those." He then
places them in a quarrel case. One weapon left. he takes out a third dagger,
before now unseen by anyone around. He glances around to see if anyone is
watching. Only Moria is even in the street, so things are safe. He concentrates
on the dagger, and the blade extends to a shortsword, then a longsword. the
blade takes on a golden color. He thinks 'good. now return to normal.' and the
longsword returns to the dagger form. He then quickly takes stock of other
things: provisions, polish, rope, grapple, herbs, more herbs, etc. He walks
over to Moria, and when she is done with her current task announces "I'm
ready."
