[OoC: Yes it was my oversight. Something Betimi had posted had for some reason made me think she was speaking Ragamoll which I should have questioned but I didn't because I assumed she was using her Vestige (Naberius) ability to pick a skill that can't be used untrained to be able to speak Ragamoll. (She actually picked Know:Local and Carpentry) But she had said she was speaking PIDGIN Ragamoll not Ragmoll so it was I that was confused. But after rereading Naberius, it only helps with skill checks and Languages don't require skill checks so I don't think it would work anyways. ]
[FYI: Most people can get a basic understanding of a Pidgin language as long as they have knowledge of the root language. In this case, anyone with Common (Cantus) can get the basic idea of what someone is saying in Ragamoll and vise-versa but it's very rough. Kind of like, "I Tarzan, you Jane." Unfortunately not being able to properly express yourself will cause problems with Diplomacy, Intimidation, negotiation and Sense Motive. ]
Kee steps outside and looks to where he had tied up his kitty. He is relieved to see that his mount is sleeping on the covered metal porch to the right of the the door. The street is eerily empty.
Inside the shop, as Selena takes on a more protective stance and the Kobold crouches down beside a barrel of spears, the smith says, "Yea. Dream shit is a fairly popular drug. I've heard it's harvested from bug shit and it causes hallucinations. But I don't deal in that sort of crap!"
