Experience II

Silvermoon

“Dry is good... for us at least.”

Silvermoon continues to chat until Skreg returns with the message from the ship. Unless there was some objection, she'll then ask the lizardmen to follow her and lead them there, stopping a good distance away, so they can see the ship.

*Granite ducks out of the bushes, moving slowly, taking in all that Silvermoon says to him in his head. However, when they speak of a tall and carniverous creature, he becomes visibly alarmed.*

"Jess' a momen,'" he says quickly, and thrashes back into the woods to get Louella. Once he has her, he takes her reins and leads her into the clearing, feeling better with him at her side to protect her (and his ale) from anything with sharp teeth and a taste for meat. Hoping to make some friends, he takes off one of the mugs from his belt and fills it full of frosty cold ale from one of the barrels on the mule. He drinks deeply and appreciatively, then fills another mug that he gets out of a sack, and holds it out to the lizardmen.

The lizardmen look at the mug suspiciously; they do not appear to recognize ale, either by scent or appearance.

OOC: Any sign of DM_Matt? I'd intended to give him a chance to respond to Skreg's message.

 

[Thanee]

OOC: I've seen him post in the Rules Forum once recently, but otherwise no idea. Don't think he checks this thread regularily.

Silvermoon

“It's something his people, and many other, are very fond of. I can't say, whether it will be to your liking. It's a drink.” Silvermoon explains, while waiting for Skreg to return with message from the ship.

 

[DM_Matt]

Rana informs the capatin and prepares ot accompany Skreg back to where everyone else is...

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

Skreg and Rana arrive with the message. The lizardmen agree to follow you to the ship. Upon arrival, they show confusion and amusement, and a fair bit of awe, asking "How did you get that monstrous thing here? Portage? And why?"

Silvermoon

“We do not know how this could happen. Magic, supposedly. It was not our work.”

Silvermoon shrugs, there is no way to explain what had happened to them. By everything she knows, they should have been drowned in the sea, yet somehow they ended up here without the cavernous river they shipped being in sight anywhere.

“Are the waters deep enough here for a ship of this size?”

 

[Paxus Asclepius]

"No. If that thing drafts as much as it looks like, it's a miracle you aren't beached already. Moving it upriver would take a larger miracle."

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

"So then, looks like we'll be travlin' o'erland, eh? Good, good, and good, 'tis m' favorite way t' travel!" Granite says with approval, taking a swig of ale. Privately he wonders how the lizardmen have managed to survive without ale... "Where be the nearest town like?"
