The party travels back to the keep without any additional incidents. When they arrive around mid-afternoon, they discover a new caravan has arrived at the keep with more adventurers hanging out in the tavern looking to make their mark in the world and garner fame and fortune from adventuring.
In Character: Thane isn't interested in talk so he goes straight to the innkeeper and says, "how much for a room for the night?"
He waves the others on to find new recruits while he looks for a bath and grub.

"Well Ardo looks like its up to you and me" Looking around the tavern Delgar studies the room and the people in it looking for people that maybe adventurers perhaps? "Excuse me bar keep have you heard of any new arrivals looking for adventure we are looking to add to our ranks so if you know of anyone please send them our way" With that he will go sit at a table and enjoy a drink or two.
"Yes, Delgar it does look like it is up to us. Too bad we couldn't clear out that troll but what do you think is in that other cave?. Ardo says it just loud enough that anyone who looks like adventurers can hear. He then pays for a room and board and orders a drink.
A armored half elf approaches you as you sit at the table. My name is Drethen. I am currently looking to make my fortune as a adventure or hired sword. I heard you talking about a troll. I know they are not easy to kill unless you have some fire. IF you need a sword or a bow I can help if you wish.
"Well we are not looking to hire someone, but looking for partners to go exploring some caves on a map. To be honest I do not think we will be fighting a troll any time soon."
The experience point reward for the three surviving members comes to 525.
I don't think anybody has enough to level yet, but let me know if there are any questions.
Also, no valuables were discovered on this last adventure.
"You said it Ardo we are no where near ready to kill that troll we lost two comrades to it very quickly, we are hoping to explore the other caves and perhaps the surrounding area" Taking a sip from his drink and looking around the room "But you are welcome to join us sir we do have another member of our group but he has retired for the evening" Leaning back in his chair delger motions to another chair at the table "have a seat and join us for a drink tell us about yourself obviously you are some kind of warrior"
