Koto:
You hear the doorway opposite the one you came in creak open. The hostile adventurers are talking to one another:
"Not that way, you fool!"
"But we can cut him off upstairs and—gah!"
The hallway you're sneaking through is suddenly filled with rats. ((~22. Individually they aren't a challenge unless you want to wipe out the whole swarm, but remember there are still four dangerous humanoids in the vicinity with you.))

Rincewind let out a sigh of relief when they neared civilization, or what passed for it on this island. It was dark already, he hoped they weren't late for the meeting.
"We agreed to regroup behind the blacksmith at nightfall. We should probably go there and see if anyone is waiting for us."

"Well, this day could've gone much better", said Grog with a sad voice.
"I guess I should just wander around and see if I can find anyone from my group... or I could just commit a suicide and see where that leads me! My life is over anyway, this is a life of a green creature that peole arond here call an Orc."
With a deep breath, Grog took his sword and put it's edge on his chest.

"Rats. Unless they are inheritly violent I see no reason to fight them." Koto thought "I do however wonder, how should I cross?" Koto noticed a pebble besides his shoe. Out of curiousity, he picked it up and soft threw it into the midts of the rats.

Broïndur waited long enough, for his peace of mind which wasn't saying all that much, for Koto to come out. And Koto didn't. So likely he was busy fighting those things the thugs were fighting, or he managed to use the distraction to get further into the catacombs of the temple.
Broïndur left and made his way back to town. Dusk was approaching rapidly and he made some haste to get there before the sun went down completely. Travelling through the dark was asking for trouble. And Broïndur had since come to the conclusion that he lacked the martial arms and prowess he had become so used to back home in the Safe Lands. Something had to be done about this. Preferably as soon as this contest was over.
Getting back to the town in time, albeit barely. First thing on his to-do-list was to head over to the alchemist's shop he had spotted earlier to have those potions he had discovered appraised. The next order of business was to either find his companions or to clobber an Elf and take his longbow. Or get the longbow through some other means, but clobbering an elf had a very nice ring to it. And it appeased to his kind's, Dwarves of the Safe Lands, dislike of Elves.
Broïndur stepped into the alchemist's shop and called out the lady doing something or other in the back.
"G'dday te ye m'am. I'd like ye te take a look at these here potions."

Rincewind (and Mat assuming gnomes has no objections):
You make it through town without trouble and head to the designated spot. You appeared to be the first ones here.
----------------
Grog/Bowie:
You plunge your sword into your chest, dying shortly thereafter. The town's healers are powerless to do anything to help you, and your corpse is moved to the town shrine.
----------------
Koto:
The rats don't even seem to notice the pebble. With a handful of furious humanoids in their midst, and as excited as they are, perhaps that isn't surprising.
----------------
Broïndur:
"G'dday te ye m'am. I'd like ye te take a look at these here potions."
You catch a glimpse of Tristan in the back, who seems hard at work at something involving grinding and mixing. He also seems to have picked up a sword and new shield at some point, but you don't have time to get his attention before the alchemist answers.
"All right, what do you have?"

"All right, what do you have?"
Broïndur gently removed the box from his back and placed it on a table inside the shop. He opened it revealing the potions inside.
"These potions here. I'd like te know what they are an' what they're worth."
((OoC: Did we just let Noob kill himself?))

Broïndur:
((Yes we did. I try to let you players do things that are stupid, reckless or outright crazy...which is why you should think twice before doing them.  ))
The alchemist hmm's over the four potions.
"A potion to cure sleep, a potion to cure poison, a simple potion to restore magical energy and a potion of Stoneskin...I can give you 127 gold for all of them."

((OOOOOOOHH. So the rats are between me and the adventurers? Allright. let's go the other way then.))
Deciding that he did not want to have any form of confrontation with the thugs, Koto decided to sneak further into the temple, away from the thugs.

"The docks?! I wonder what she's doing here."~Fandral talking to himself.
Fandral began to sneak toward the docks, though he had skill in the ability to keep himself hidden, he makes a blunder of it all, at one point knocking a crate over.

Koto:
((They're mixed together. You're in a hallway like thus:
Does that help?))
----------------
Fandral:
Keska by this point has approached a man at the docks and pulled him into conversation. You catch sight of her expression; she seems upset and unhappy, but not overwhelmingly so, and as you draw closer you can make out a few words...boat...hire...how much...
CRASH!
Keska looks over at the noise but seems to pay you no special attention; obviously this isn't something she cares about being overheard, as she goes right back to her conversation...fishing...spear...

Broïndur:
The alchemist thinks for a moment, before replying, "102 for everything except the Cure Poison potion."

((Thanks, helps a lot.))
Pressing his back against the wall, Koto decided to sneak through the hallway, hoping not to startle the rats or alarm the thugs about his presence.
((Going towards glory, riches, fame and water))

"102 for everything except the Cure Poison potion."
Broïndur thought a moment.
"Aye, that sounds fair enough. Ye have yerself a deal, ma'am."
Broïndur took the potions out of the chest and handed them over to the alchemist. While she counted out the coin, Broïndur secured the remaining potion into a corner of the chest with the silk sash that was in there. Then he accepted the coin and thanked the alchemist.
"Tristan, hurry yerself. We'll be meetin' soon." He shouted towards Tristan before he departed.
Then Broïndur set out towards the meeting-spot, seeing Matt and Rincewind already there when he got to the spot.

Koto:
((No problem.  ))
You sneak past to the best of you ability. There is a harrowing moment when one of the hostile party steps on a rat and winds up slamming you into a wall as he staggers ((take minor damage)), but all he does is start swearing at one of his compatriots—who naturally proclaims innocence.
Once out of the hall, you find yourself in a large, rectangular room lined with broken down pews. Water covers the floor here, on all but a thin isle on the side you came in and an upraised platform on the far side. ((Note: it gets gradually deeper the farther into the room you go, starting at nothing where you are and ending up about knee-high on Koto at the far end—obviously less than that for a human or something human-sized.)) The water is heavily peppered with flotsam—slimy, rotting, and in some cases embedded with nails or other sharp unpleasant things...footing will be treacherous at best. An alter takes up most of the platform; the elaborate crescent moon mosaic behind it is well-illuminated by the single lit lantern perched on its surface.
Behind you and to either side of the hallway you just came out of are a set of alcoves, the bars across the top and the barest shreds of fabric hanging from them telling you they used to be curtained off. A pair of exits flank the platform on either side; one to the left and one to the right. The only other way out appears to be the way you came in.
----------------
Broïndur:
You exchange the unwanted potions for the coin and make it to the designated spot without incident.

"Good night, Ma'am," Tristans says, smiling and bowing to the woman as she prepares to lock up. He then turns, and starts heading over to the meeting spot. It wasn't his most favored of places, after what had happened earlier, but it was still where he needed to go.

"Fishing...spear...sharks! Seems logical enough." Fandral said to himself
Fandral pounced out from cover, and pranced toward the ship, yelling frantically as he did so.
(Edit My bad, *pranced toward keska* to be more precise. Need to hire her to help me get a damn shark. Also when I say hire, I mean she works for free  We get the shark, can't risk her running off with my loot)

You draw a number of strange looks, but no one stops you on your way.

Keska looks at you strangely, as do many of the people nearby.

Fandral opens his mouth as if to speak, but stammers under the force behind the question.
"Erm, yeah sharks."
"I mean, I need to hunt down a shark, having no experience with this sort of thing I'm probably going to need your help, seeing how greeny is lazing around the tavern, leaving me to do all the work."
