Is it true that the world beyond that door is overrun by bullywugs? t'Nee croaks frantically. 

Because I'm not one of those good-for-nothing lazy toadfaces, and I've always wanted to punch them right in their ungrateful mouths.  

Doraad turns towards the frog person and attempts to calm them down.

"I'm sure in either case they aren't literally on the other side of the portal. No need to get in an uproar."

Turning back to the arcane, Doraad thinks for a minute, and pulls out a gold piece:

"So do we all hand you the..." What was the word that people in this city used for currency? "'jinked' first for a common key? Or do we each get our own?"

"That's fair." Hano pipes up. She reaches for the pouch at her waist and withdraws four gold pieces, dropping them in the Arcane's hand. "You guys can consider this a contribution to the adventure. Besides, going to this soda keep will be really exciting!"

Doen was reaching into her coin pouch when Hano pays for all of them herself. "Oh! Thanks Hano!"

The whole process seemed rather odd to Doraad, but then again portals to anywhere outside the 13 planes were extremely rare back in Eberron, and even those not too common. Perhaps it was just the nature of the rest of the cosmos to be more similar to magic in nature. A gesture here, an arcane command word there and you were reaching directly into the fabric of the universe to make your will a reality.

Nevertheless the hobgoblin still felt really silly as he walked up to the green door, opened it, and recited the magic words:
"I really, really, really want to zig-a-zig-ha."
Of course, it was at this point that the thought occurred that the shopkeeper might have been messing with him. Something about that ill reputation was probably true, after all.
