Mark was notified sometime later that it was time to sleep, so he went upstairs and jumped right into bed.
"I'll inform the other guys of what people told me tomorrow..." he yawned, rolled over and fell asleep.
His dreams, however, was not so pleasant as hoped. There was alot of blood, alot of crying, the sound of metal hitting metal, and orders being shouted out. Battles of old came back to remind Mark about the horrors of war, and the 'glory' the victor got to bask in. Mark however, like all other times, did not remember any of this dream when he woke up.

((Emerald Island, in the swamp. 12:42 AM.))
Abbadon climbs the tower after the floating light. Carefully; many of the stairs have rotted out, and the remainder creak ominously under his weight. At last he reaches the top floor—the floorboards are no better off than the stairs, rotted out so most of it consists of a hole rather than floor. What remains holds a rusted stand that might have held a telescope at one point, and an old, weathered desk.
The floating light sees you climb up the steps, makes a two-toned sound like ‘nyah-nyah!’ and flies out one of the room’s windows out of reach.
((Emerald Island, at the inn. 1:05 AM.))
Mark and Glenn successfully manage to sleep.
The innkeeper gives Jack a bit of an odd look when he asks to work for a room for the night. “Well lass, you’re a bit late, but here.” He gives Jack a broom with instructions to sweep out the common room. The room in question is now mostly empty, except for a few adventurers lingering over their drinks and a handful of people passed out in various positions over the tables and floor.

An old man shows up before us, before I get to respond to my companion. My companion speaks up first, and we follow an old man into his store. It was filled with weird and good things, items was hanging from most places.
Quickly taking of the gloves and putting them into the pocket before placing the ring and the medallion into one hand, holding them up before the shopkeeper, and asking in a polite tone: "So dear shopkep, what is the marked value of these 2 items? And what is popular to buy these days?"
OOC: Getting sell price Iron Ring and Stamped Medallion. The red pots also might be popular?

Abaddon was happy of his light weight body right now. The floor wouldn't be able to hold his true body. He was pissed at the escaped light, but it was to late to do anything about it. The strange desk however, attracted his attention. Walking carefully on the very unstable and rotted away floor, he went closer to examine the desk. It was no doubt old, yet an ornate piece of furniture. One that might be worth a titan sized pile of cash in the accursed Imperium.
Abaddon started searching through the drawers, looking for something of worth.

((Emerald Island, at the general store. 12:27 AM.))
((Red pots? You mean Red Potions?))
The old man rubs his head as if it aches, muttering under his breath. “Kreegan-spawned adventurers think the world revolves around them…” At normal volume he says to Rikudo, “Let me see.”
“Popular items? I’ve been selling a lot of potions of Cure Wounds lately,” he replies as he examines the ring and the medallion with a critical eye. “Sold out yesterday morning, in fact.” He hands Rikudo’s items back to him. “The medallion is scratched, and the craftsmanship on both of them is rather less than top quality…I’ll give you 10 gold pieces for the ring and 31 for the medallion. You want a better price, come back in the morning.”
((Emerald Island, in the ruined tower. 12:49 AM.))
Abbadon manages to reach the desk without plunging through the floorboards and begins to search it. By the looks of things someone’s already been through here at some point in the past—most of what remains in the desk is junk, consisting of a few moth-eaten quills and a dry pot of ink. One drawer, however, is different—a brief examination reveals the drawer is just a little shallower than it should be. Under the papers bearing official-looking writing is a false bottom, and under that is a handful of coins ((4 Gold)) and a small key.

Not really catching nor minding the complains, the trading went on: "Well, sounds like fair price. But it is quite the shame your out of those potions, when do you get new supplies? *Looks around attempting to locate maps* Just out of curiosity, do you sell any maps?"

The night was filled with dreams of experiences he had never experienced. Though, nothing about it seemed too horrible. There was a fair amount of church work being completed. An occasional task of using some form of magic to heal minor wounds, and performing some blessings were performed.
The dream soon turned to a battle. A battle between two groups Glenn couldn't make out. All the figures around him were blurred in a hazy mist. The only way he could tell the two groups apart was style of their armors. Large and heavy, versus small and light. He had the club at his side, but was more focused on the healing. He felt a moderate blow to the back of his head, then woke up.
"That was quite unpleasant."
Glenn looked outside, seeing that it was nearly time that he should wake up anyway. He took the tome he placed aside in hand, and started reading it.

Abaddon looked at the key. A small, simple bronze key. Whatever it unlocked, it surely wasn't here on the desk. He putted the key in his pocket and again carefully placing his steps walked to the staircase.

Kamahl reached into his pockets and realized he had no coins.
But he knows that not all that buys things is gold.
"It must be hard to run this shop all by yourself. So many trinkets and baubles."
kamahl said to the shopkeeper.

“I’ll be getting in a new supply in a few days. I can sell you a paper map for 2 gold.” To Kamahl he says, “I’m not usually so busy.”
((Emerald Island, at the ruined tower. 12:56 AM.))
Retracing his footsteps, Abbadon manages to reach the stairs safely. ((Now what?  ))
((Emerald Island, at the inn. 1:35 AM.))
Jack finishes sweeping the inn’s common room and is lead to a room by the innkeeper. He is then able to sleep. ((Unless you had something else planned; if so inform me.))
((I’m going to give Kip, del and mamga a bit more time to finish up and then I’ll detail morning.))

“Good evening to you,” the shopkeeper tells Kamahl (somewhat grumpily) before the door shuts behind him.
Outside, crickets chirp. A torch-bearing man in a guard uniform nods to Kamahl as he passes. Barring the rush of waves it is quiet; even the distant noises of the inn are dimming in the pre-dawn hours.
((What do you want to do next?))

"Perhaps i'll just wait til morning. Something's bound to happen during the day." Kamahl grumbles to himself.
"Perhaps something in that inn will be of interest."
kamahl makes his way over to the inn. His elvish gait still not quite perfect.

Kamahl reaches the inn without incident. He sees Mark rushing about serving the thinning crowd before the innkeeper greets him. “Hello lad, can I help you?”

After safely climbing down the stairs, Abaddon noticed another staircase, this time leading down to the basement. Unfortunately, he didn't had any kind of light source. After looking around he found several still usable torches. Now the problem was to get them lit. He reached for his pocket. Nothing. Only a key and several gold pieces he found in the desk.

((@Mytical: Aww, so I left all those drunk people lying around for nothing? *pouts*))
((Emerald Island, at the general store. 12:30 AM.))
“Yes yes,” the old shopkeeper yawns as he completes the transaction, “Now get out of my shop, some of us like to sleep during these hours.”
He takes the medallion and the ring and gives Rikudo his maps and gold.
((A note on the map of Emerald Island you just bought: it doesn’t have everything that’s on the map I posted on page 2; it’s missing the mushroom ring, the cave with bones outside it, the healer’s tent and the ships. Have fun figuring out why.  ))
((Emerald Island, at the ruined tower. 1:03 AM.))
Abbadon’s explorations turn up a discarded piece of flint and steel left in a nook by the stairs. Striking flame to a torch, he can see the stairs going down don’t go very far and there’s a door at the bottom. He is also able to see the floor at the bottom of the tower is covered in debris (both natural and not), and there are dark burned patches in the stone of the walls, mostly around human height or lower. The latter looks much more recent. Off near one wall he spies a bit of bright green, out of place against the rot-stained and weather-bleached interior of the tower; it glitters a little in the torchlight, but doesn’t move.

((It has occured to you that some of us actually completed this game, right?))
Mark got up in the morning, yawned, dressed, went downstairs, said hello to the innkeeper. Asked for how much breakfest would cost.
((More detailed version )
Mark woke up in the morning, remembering nothing about any of his dreams as usual.
"A new day brings new adventures and new battles to be fought (and won, I mind you)!" he yawned as he dressed up in his everyday cloths.
After getting his cloths on, Mark eyed the sword he had "So, I guess I will have to learn how to use this, huh? Or maybe I should learn myself how to use another weapon. A spear would be good.
He then let his eyes go over the chain mail and the rusted breastplate "Hmmm, I wonder if I can wear both of this at the same time..."
After attempting to wear both, and figuring out why this shorty did not use them both at the same time, he decided to only wear the breastplate.
"Why?" he mumbled as he looked into the mirror "Cause I look awesome, that's why! Rusted just fits me, okay?"
As he looked in the mirror, Mark noted the insanely long beard he had.
"Man, I need to get this thing cut! Explains why it was so hard to dress up this morning!" he thought.
"Now..." Mark looked at the metal ring he had and the chainmail that he didn't need "What to do with this?"
He took the ring and put it on his finger, he then drew his sword and slashed a few times in the air, and he found it that wearing might not be the best of ideas. It sligthly hurt to use the sword.
"Guess I could sell it.." Mark mumbled as he took it off his finger "Or I could give it to Merlin-, no wait, he is not here. Well, maybe one of those guys I met could need this. Yeah, they'll probably need it. Damn I am hungry!"
So Mark went down to the inn and sat down by the table and shouted "How much do it cost for bread and water?"

After successfully getting some light Abaddon examined the door from a safe distance. He picked up a pebble and threw it at the door. It hitted them, and then landed on the floor. Nothing else happened. He approached the door and tried to open it. Locked. Abaddon picked up the key he found, and placed it in the lock. It fitted perfectly. He turned the key, hearing the clunking of the lock's gears. The door emitted a screeching sound and opened.
