"Me keep good secret, other people don't like me because they head-heart doesn't fit me." Ohblorx follows her to the study but awaits his fruit punch more than the grammar lessons.

while you enter the study upstairs, you find the woman seating herself in a chair to your left. you notice that this isn't much of a study, its more like a library, filled with books on magic, poems, maps, manifests, tombs, and some childrens books.
the woman says "my name is Tolenne, a housemate will bring up your refreshments soon, in the meantime, please have a seat."
as you walk over to sit in the chair, a catfolk girl, looks about 14-15, walks up the steps with a tray, thats floating, on the tray, there is a pitcher of punch, and a flagon, she pours you a glass, hands it to you, while she does she gives you a wink, lowers the tray to a comfortable level in case you want more. She quickly leaves.
Tolenne returns your attention to her, "now, why were here, you need to learn language better"

"Me like the way I talk, but me could learn to talk like others do so they can mind-hear me better." Ohblorx waves at the girl eagerly then drinks away, his body oozing from the incoming refreshment. "Me been told that gooey things [gelatinous creatures] usually be not as smart. What do... me-many [we] do here? Me a monk, me fight..."

you learn well, about 4th grade speech is now developed, so, no pretty big words but now people can relate to you better.
Tolenne explains that that is a place of sanctuary for people that cannot live comfortably outside, many of them previously tried to live normal lives and failed because they might not have been able to get a house from prejudicial people or something along those lines.
after the time of cramming information into your head you notice its getting pretty dark outside and Tolenne gives you a room key, and tells you its on the second floor, room 265 and tells you how to get there.
there are still some activity downstairs, but declining rapidly.

Ohblorx feels that his Athachian head will detonate from all this work. He lumbers off to his room, waving with his three arms to everyone along the way. As he comes into his room, he does his exercises, stretching out with his leg, putting one arm up and another to the sides. Tomorrow he wishes to begin some good work.

the next day comes, as you awake you hear the bustle of people talking outside and the clanking of silverware against plates
there is a note by your bed, it is a map, on it it has pictures, one picture is of a fork and a butter knife crossed accross eachother symbolizing the kitchen.
another picture is of a sword layed accross a shield symbolizing the armory
you find a pickture of a red man with three arms inside a lodging wing, you assume thats where your room is.
there is a picture of a hammer comming down uppon an anvil symbolizing the smithy
and there are many other symbols, all of which you understand, you have access to all of these places, but the spiral stairway has a red X over it, you think it means you can't go up to the study.

Ohblorx shrugs and puts the paper into his bag. He does his morning exercises, first breathing, then simulating a bizarre Siva, and finally goes to the kitchen for a morning meal (might as well eat as long as he can). After this, he will seek out a place that he can leave the area and begin to find conflicts to end.

Ohblorx jumps over and puts his two arms inbetween them, his third arm ready to block anything or make hand gestures. "Hey! Ohblorx doesn't like to see fighting. What be the problem?"

they both look down, very embarrassed and the were bear girl yells out "She did it! its her fault!" then runs off
OOG: ...*shrug*

Ohblorx says, "Stay here." to the cat girl, then runs after the werebear saying, "Come back! Let talk about this!"
OOG: Huh?

you easily catch up with her, and as you find her her face is filled with relief
OOG: ... i had no idea why i started that... its not going to go anywhere (i dont think)

Ohblorx comes closer and says, "What is problem, lady?" His voice is somehow soft.
OOG: I'm a Reverend!

OOG: you know what?... this section just got kinda lame, time to spice it up Just as you end the word lady, a guard bursts through the door, followed by a mage saying "I knew i sensed some powerful magic behind that door!" the files through the rows of people saying gettoutamyway! he turns a corner, and spots you ( rolled a 20 to find you ) he poins his finger with authority right at you and screams to the mage ( and now a few more soldiers) "I'VE FOUND HIM! HE'S HERE! THE MURDERER! HE'S HERE!"

OOG: In general, sudden assaults just for the sake of chasing pace seem really artificial Ohblorx puts his arms up and says, "I am not a murderer! Don't harm anyone here! Please let talk!" (20 for Charisma check).

OOG: holy cow! nice check... and i agree with the sudden assault, i was gonna have a guard walking by right as you left, but i didn't know how to end the girl conversation well
now, with about four guards and the mage in the same room as you, the mage decides not to make too much of a scene and jut take you into custody

Ohblorx figures that it would be a good idea to comply for now with the authorities until he can get a trial. He says, "Thank for not hurting them..." He knows that their bonds will be virtually useless against him, so he simply keeps all three hands in the air and walks inbetween the guards. "I am innocent."

a ragefull guard, tries to shove you out the door, hands getting scorced with acid in the process.
as you leave, the mage stays and compliments Telenne on her great accomplishments with the teleportation door.
as your walking towards the jail, where you will be kept, many people spit on you, throw things at you, often missing, and those that hit sizzle in your acid. you get many horrible comments, which you now know what they mean.
as you enter the jail cell, which they trust you wont burn through the bars and escape out of, you notice a red figure in the cell accross from yours

"They say I tried to... homicide people, but I didn't do it, I killed the thing that did." Ohblorx's red gelatinous body vibrates as he speaks, clearly a bit worries.

"hmm... interesting, they probably wanted someone to blame and people like us fit the profile, My guess is their afraid of us"
by the way a Kir-Lannan looks something like a Humanoid Gargoyle

Ohblorx doesn't easily pick up on the sarcasm. "No, but they do have the right to find out that we are innocent."

Ohblorx nods. "Let them come to the truth in our own time. In the meantime, meditate."

a guard walks by but doesn't care about the ramblings of "lesser beings" so he pays no heed
