[QUOTE="megamania, post: 5006242, member: 9255"] ELDEEN REACHES SEGMENT 008 11/08/09 “Trail of The Lost People” THERENDOR 27 997 Having come into town to collect their money from the Dire Boar Hide Leaffa walks to the Healer’s Office. She talks to Kato briefly about things in life before leaving. She is slightly depressed, as she has decided to free Ash of her commitment to her. The Animal Companion neighed its feelings to her then looked to the open fields of the foothills and ran to join other wild horses. Piik has begun retelling his story of how he killed the three barghests. Each retelling of it has fewer allies helping him do it. Gilfer considers correcting him but every time to motions to add to the story the bugbear includes his gallant efforts while leaving out the fear effects. Things seem peaceful once more. A lone man with haunted looking eyes is drinking in the corner. He is listening to the bugbear’s story with limited interest. Piik finishes when he gutted the GREATER barghest in a single swing of his battleaxe. The man snorts. Gilfer turns and looks at the man. “Do you have something to add?” “Where were you when my village was taken?” “Taken?” “Taken during the night by kidnappers.” “Sounds like the treacherous Drow of Xen’drik. Now those people are something to fear. Did I ever tell you about my time in the Guar’fectra Jungle of the lost continent?” Sir John asks as he leans back and pulls out his pipe. “This is no story of fancy old man.” Snarls the man. “My friends and family were taken in the night. Few of us remain.” “Sounds like they need our help.” Says Leaffa as she walks in. “By the heat of the eternal flame! Leaffa. Welcome and well met.” Says Arkoose. Task rolls his eyes. “What happened your village exactly? I didn’t hear the story.” Asks Leaffa as Sir John locates a bottle of her favorite wine and pours her one glass. “It began a short time ago. The outlining homes of the village were the first targets. Oxen were taken then the pigs. People looked for the cause but found nothing. Then the people began to disappear. Taken from their beds at night.” “Someone should do something about it” offers Gilfer (not meaning themselves) “That someone can be us.” Offers Leaffa. Both Piik and Gilfer stop in mid drink and stare. “Oh well done!” exclaims Sir John. “I wish I could go. In my youth I would have taken on the Barghests AND this new threat at the same time. Heh… in my youth I did face multiple threats at once. Especially in the Military.” “Then it is set, We leave tomorrow.” Declares Leaffa.
