'Bob' the dwarf thanks the group for the wine, boss is awfully interested in what happened that night.. three of ours turned up dead after they went on a mission on the Caroline, and awfully coincidental that both the Springbok that the wine came from the the Caroline both were set ablaze.
The three were foolish and went out on their own instead of waiting for more intel and a proper plan, don't care what happened that night but if you happen to have information or something from the boat, bosses are willing to lighten their pockets or arrange another deal?

He looks over a four stones, picks one up and says “You available? I've got something intriguing for you to look at” a couple minutes later a male Gnome appears in the middle of the room. He excitedly agrees with Owyn that they are to Nine Hells but would need a few days to study and go over maps to find exactly where, or if you're the adventurous type can send you there tomorrow.
