[QUOTE="megamania, post: 5097163, member: 9255"] ELDEEN REACHES SEGMENT 029 01/30/10 “Mama Jura’s Problem” Nymm 4, 997 After traveling the next day to the Green Valley, the Heroes of Eldeen begin to travel up the trail that leads to the woman’s home. The village is poor and simple. Crops do not grow well in the rocky soil and the farm animals seem underfed. Mama Jura is described as being something of a hermit that is highly respected and honored by the people of Green Valley. Going up into the higher hills the group reaches the entrance to a cave where Mama Jura is said to live. Gilfer stops the group at the entrance. Looking into the dirt and sand he spots several footprints of small figures that appeared to be running out of the cave. Looking further into the cave he sees huge reptilian footprints. With more caution, they enter the cave. About fifty feet in the cave branches to the right. At the entrance of this area Gilfer spots four small sets of foot prints mixed in with the fleeing ones and reptilian ones. Still being cautious, the four of them enter the area of the cave the footprints lead to. Inside is a set of four beds and a chest to place extra blankets. The beds are sized for humans. “Nothing to squish.” Says Piik looking around. His battle-axe readied. “Where is the woman?” asks Gilfer looking around. “What made these tracks?” asks Leaffa looking around at the small humanoid tracks. “Maybe whatever chased them off is to be squished.” Says Piik. Nite sniffs at the reptilian tracks and shakes his head in disgust. Leaffa is about to ask what it is that bothers him so much when Gilfer leaves the room and goes further down the hall. They reach another branch but skip it. Warm air can be felt from ahead of them. Maybe it is Mama Jura’s health. The four sets of small tracks lead in and can be seen fleeing also. They follow the tracks to the next area around the corner. “WHO IS THERE?” A loud voice calls out. It vibrates within their heads and body. Piik swings his axe around to strike. Gilfer powers up his mindblade. Leaffa debates whom to summon up and Nite just continues to pod up behind everyone ready to attack…. with some hesitation. “I WILL DESTROY YOU IF YOU DO NOT SHOW YOURSELVES!” Piik looks at Gilfer and together they rush around the corner. As normal, Leaffa has cast a light spell on Gilfer shield. The lit shield reveals….. a large scaled and horned head. The head of a green dragon! A HUGE green dragon! “ARE YOU HERE TO STEAL FROM ME ALSO?!?” “oh carp.” Whispers the bugbear. [ Tim says something that makes me remind him about the use of adult language ] Leaffa stops and stares. Nite stops outside of the room deciding it would be better NOT to enter unless the druid insists. “We…. We were sent here by the villagers.” Says Leaffa with a great deal of caution. “THE LITTLE PEOPLE… ARE YOU WITH THE LITTLE PEOPLE?!?” Gilfer spots something under the dragon. Something green and blue with a rough surface. An egg! “We came from below. The villagers were … afraid…. The villagers were concerned for you.” Continues Leaffa. “YOU ARE NOT WITH THE LITTLE PEOPLE?” “No. We were under the understanding that you needed help. Our help.” Leaffa says with the most calming voice she can muster. “THE LITTLE PEOPLE STOLE FROM ME. THEY TOOK SOMETHING OF GREAT VALUE AND IMPORTANCE TO ME.” Gilfer motions to Piik. Piik sees the eggs now himself. He lowers his axe and does not put it away. He is not advancing either. “Who are… the little people?” Gilfer asks. “THE LITTLE PEOPLE. THE HALFLINGS. THEY STOLE FROM ME.” Piik scratches his arm in uncertainty. “So many halflings….. which ones?” “THE LOUD RUNNING AROUND HYPER ONES.” The three of them turn to look at each other with rolling eyes. In unison… The Ghallanda Halflings. “What did they take?” asks Leaffa with a lot of caution and fear of the answer as she now also sees the eggs. “ONE OF MY CHILDREN!
