       Yes. Olly was looking down at your feet and didn't notice the
       peck on his forehead until the event had already occurred.

       The Fallen Star Company, guided by Nothgg made fall at Rath
       Ruadh, the village ruled by Jarl Sergil Dach. The party met with
       her and her daughter Aideen, who were both visibly upset by the
       news. Hugging ensued. It was revealed that Ungrag was set to
       represent the village and the Dach Clan at the Jarlsmeet, to
       decide the fate of the Western Isles, in the election of their
       new King, replacing Grach un Taig, whom fell to Gulthandori in a
       raid.
       As compensation for the Fallen Star Company's exertion and
       honoring of their customs the party was rewarded with a
       selection of live stock. Popo and Olly used their skills to
       communicate with the animals (sheep), but Aideen and the farmer
       were rather concerned with this behavior. After inquiring if
       they were druids, and being told, instead they are sorcerers,
       her mood soured. The party was led briskly back to the Jarl's
       House to conclude their business, now with a sheep named Ungrag
       (Jr.) in tow.
       Instead of finding the house as before, rather empty and quiet,
       it was now full of citizens. Two guards, whom the party
       encountered and impressed with their manners proved useful
       sources of information. It was eventually declared by Sergil,
       that in the place of Ungrag, Sergil and Aideen would go to
       Trolde and represent their village and clan. For the moment,
       Rath Ruadh would remain ruled by Sergil. However the guards
       expressed concern over Sergil's legitimacy, considering the
       death of her son, the would-be Jarl.
       Upon further review, Aideen seemed to express disdain towards
       both her brother and mother, however divulguing little
       information beyond her knowledge of an author known for books
       regarding Trade Deals negotiated with Selkie, even at the
       pursuit of Olly and Popo. Clunk, feeling indepted or otherwise,
       gave Aideen one of his playing cards, a now calling card for the
       Fallen Star Company. He laid out his intentions to provide
       protection, should it be needed.
       With Aideen and many other folk gone from the house following
       the announcement, Sergil stopped the party to ask them a favour
       of sorts. She expressed her deepest concerns for the well-being
       of her daughter. Stating that this had nothing to do with her
       gender, rather that Aideen was now her only child. The Company
       was encouraged to head towards Trolde and arrive before the
       evening, which also lined up kindly with Harvald un Taig's
       invitation to attend the festivities in the town at the base of
       the Kaer.
       Kindly, Popo scavanged some ingredients before leaving, and
       appeared to create a dish suitable for sick stomachs.
       Upon arriving in Trolde, early in the morning, the party had a
       day ahead of them, with several contacts and a wealth of options
       in front of them. The only arrangement was to be present for the
       evening-time.

       Popo investigates the beach, tide, and weather. Are there going
       to be good surfing conditions soon?

       *It's hard to say when water vehicle and predicting weather meet
       I suppose... anyway*
       The conditions look very calm at the moment. The air is crisp in
       the morning with a shining sun. the waves lap very sighty
       against the side of the dock. Trolde is also situated in a bit
       of a cove, making the winds very gentle. You think it will be
       unlikely to have good surfing conditions here. From your
       experience prior, you know that the best conditions are on the
       western and southern sides of the islands - although Trolde is
       on a the western edge, you don't ever remember there being
       particularly good waves near the town.
       Standing not far away from you is a robbed man, around your age,
       doing some form of ritual (could be understood as a more
       "western" form of tai-chi), facing towards the sea, taking deep
       breaths. He robe is a dark green, covered in burs, and beside
       him a walking staff and a pack.

       Can I determine who robbed the man and when? :P
       Does this man look like someone Popo would describe as a "chill
       dude?" Popo walks up to the man and addresses him with a shaka,
       "Hey, brother, how's the tide my man? Those ankle-busters must
       feel good, not something a dude can hang-ten on, but chill
       nontheless!"

       *Typo - robed not robbed, sry.*
       Popo would perhaps see this guy as one of the "beach patrol". He
       stops his early morning meditation. "I see a clear day - as
       clairvoyant as my mind".

       "Hey, far out man, yeah that's radical. Sometimes when the tides
       like this I like to come down to the skirt and hang loose too.
       Living a life of surfari, man, the bunnies are fine, the
       pipelines are mondo, the luaus are bodacious, but it wears ya
       out dude." Popo looks the man over a bit closer and gives him a
       smell. Can I assertain where he is from using my Ilha Mercador
       lore? "Do you know happen to know Gremmy, brah? We paddled out
       here half hoping hoping we could catch a wave tandem with him."
       Perception: 8 (d20)+4+5=17
       Perception (smell): 21

       Based on the smell of spiced mead and cured meats, he's almost
       certainly a resident of the Western Isles. "Indeed I am aware of
       Master Gremion and his archaic ways," he says calmly, continuing
       with a breathing exercise. "I'm sure he will arrive soon, not to
       miss the ceremony."
       He eyes you over. "You and your unique look seem strangely
       familiar. Alas, you're probably not aware of the passing of King
       Grach. We will see him a final time in the harbor at dusk." He
       picks up his belongings, finished with his exercises. "If he had
       accepted my council, I'm sure he would still be King of the
       Living" he says simply.

       Before he leaves, Popo flips his board over, exposing to him
       that on the top side, written in the knots of the wood, is a
       druidic message, "May the Big Kahuna shepard us home". He speaks
       in druidic in a style more austere than he has in common, the
       language probably doesn't allow much of his jargon or
       flourishings, "Tell me about the late King, you were his
       advisor? What brought his demise? As for Gremion, are you of the
       same circle?"
