 They went about 3 miles and then came upon a heavy set guy. He stood up and walked out into the middle of the road with a big old cigar hanging from his mouth. He didn't look familiar. He said, "Well, Sooloe knew you would come. He asked of them, "You got the books?". Oglesby answered, "Got em right here lad!". Audra asked, "Where is Sooloe?". The man answered, "You'll see him soon enough mate!". He eyed everyone, especially for the weapons they carried. Once he seemed satisfied, he told them to follow him. They moved off the road into a wooded area and continued on for about a quarter mile. Along the way, Brandy looked to Oglesby and said, "What did I tell you about people who smoke cigars?". Oglesby replied, "What's that my dear?". Brandy said, "All they do is blow smoke up your ass.". Even the man laughed a little at that. He replied, "I can do a lot more than that with your ass!". She replied, "I don't think it's big enough.". They chuckled as they continued on. They learned the mans name was Oria.
-At one point, Oria stopped and turned to them and said, "I hope you guys aren't bluffin! No tricks, or your little friend may stay missing for a long time.". They moved into a clearing and in the distance, they could see a camp and quite a few people standing around. Those people turned to face the group entering the clearing. One man stood out in front of the others wearing the official uniform of the Calimport militia with the rank of Sergeant. He was smoking a cigar and had battle scars and faced them menacingly. He look at the group and asked, who was the leader of the group. Oglesby said, "We are really kind of more of a democracy, if you know what I mean.". He asked, "Then who has the biggest mouth in your group.". Elenor said, "That would be Brandy!", as she laughed. Oglesby pointed out Brandy as well. She looked at Oglesby and said, "I saw that!". The man continued, "Well, we have a small matter of some business to get to.". He continued, "We know you are the team that stole some important books from a home in the Makers Ward and the owner of those books, being quite the non-confrontational sort, simply asks that you return the books and there will be questions asked.".

 Brandy replied, "Excuse me but didn't you guys steal them in the first place? So they're really not your books.". Sooloe replied, "What makes you think he stole them? Did some wizard tell you that? Do you believe those lying bastards?". Brandy said, "Do I trust a wizard who has money and a good house over a nasty, stinky, cigar smoking asshole? Yeah, I trust the wizard before I do you!". Sooloe asked, "How do you think the wizard got all of that money. He's taking it from people like you, you shithead.". There was much more conversation about who was the rightful owners of the books and a lot of name calling. It finally came down to Sooloe telling them that if they returned the books, then he would help them find their missing friend. He said, "I'd say there is a fare chance we could probably locate him.". Audra added, "Seeing as you guys kidnapped him, yes, I'd think you would be able to!". Sooloe protested when called a kidnapper. He touted how he was a member of the Calimport militia. "We do not kidnap people!", Sooloe said. He returned to calling them thieves who broke into someone's home, stole some materials, and even murdered someone. He snapped his fingers and called out, "Neebo, Callia?". Two figures came closer, one limping with a cane. Audra recognized them.
