[QUOTE="doghead, post: 6233890, member: 8243"] [B]Day Four, afternoon, inside the residence of Herr Borne[/B] The blood appears to be all the Stewards. His clothes are ripped and torn and he has suffered multiple lacerations as well as some heavier blows from from something blunt. His hands and knees are bloodied and raw and the wounds filled with dirt and small stones. His left ankle is swollen and bruised, badly sprained or even broken. He is not dying, but he is in shock*. His pulse is weak and his skin clammy. While he looks at Ullara as she knees beside him, the Steward does not respond initially. His gaze is glassy. [sblock=OOC *]He is at around a half to a third HP remaining. OK, by the RAW he should be just fine and dandy. But D20 rules suck at handling wounds and wounding. So I improvised. In Cure terms, at the minimum, a really good roll with a Cure Light for full recovery.[/sblock] The sheer number of wounds is at first a little overwhelming, but after a few minutes Ullara begins to see progress. The water and bandages arrive, which helps. But it is the soothing balm of the poultice and something aromatic under the nose that eventually brings the Steward around from his shock. Eventually he looks up at Ullara, his gaze clear and alert. "Thank you," he says. At first the Steward tries to get up, and has to be convinced by Ullara and the old woman (probably mostly the old woman, as she is a bit of a dragon) to remain lying down for bit longer while Ullara finishes her work. "There is something wrong with the Netherworld," the Steward responds after the question is put to him again. "Or something wrong in the Netherworld." he adds, seeing that his first answer didn't really satisfy. He goes on. "The Netherworld is all wrong. It ... it tried to ... kill me. It was all wrong. The path was treacherous underfoot and all overgrown. I stumbled a few times and kept getting cut by the brambles. Brambles? there shouldn't be brambles in the Netherworld! And then I tripped. Something tripped me. It didn't want to let go. I managed to get to my feet again but I couldn't move without getting slashed by the bushes, trees ... they had big thorns and I ... I ran. I think I fell down a few times. I don't remember so much after that ..." Once again the Steward Struggles to sit up. "Herr Borne will be trapped. Or ... worse. We need to help him."
