[QUOTE="Uller, post: 6750294, member: 413"] After Bertram and Surana return you begin the waiting game...Orsik wakes up and begins to regain some strength. Each of you prepares in your own way. Hours pass. You drift in and out of sleep. The dreams are stronger now. The line between waking and nightmarish slumber becomes impossible to discern. Then you hear it...over the sound of the water fall...at first imprecptable...a humming of sorts. Is it real? The only clue is that everyone in the pen seems to hear it as well. The sound files you with an urge to flee, to seek refuge and await the passing of it's horrific source. Some times there is a guard posted outside your door, that is the case now. He stands as he also becomes alert to the strange noise. Then a shadow rises behind him, a quick move, a glint of steel, and the guard spins sideways and convulses, not from his wound but something else (poison?). He drops to his knees, slumps forward against the slave pen gate, a pool of blood and piss spreading around him. His key ring is hanging from his belt, within easy reach. Jorlan's face become visible momentarily, he smiles and nods then is gone. The humming is growing louder and becomes a droning buzz, like angry wasps. Alarm horns sound from the watch post at the south western end of the outpost. You see Jorlan and two drow move out of guard tower (meaning only one remains...along with possibly the one in the watch post at the north eastern end, just past the quaggoth den). The buzzing begins to mingle with monstrous shrieks and shouts of alarm. It is hard to see what is happening but through the void of the cavern you swear you see a large winged shape soar passed the guard tower and turn back upon itself. It is pursued by two slightly smaller more insectlike flying creatures (but still far larger than a human). The droning sound is horrible and nearly unbearable and seems be coming from the insectoid things. Sarith's voice comes from the darkness. "You're time is now. Hesitate and your chance will pass" [ooc] Someone can get the keys and open the slave pen... The drow seem to be gathering (at least in part at Jorlan's direction) to the south. You don't know how many flying creatures there are but you saw at least three. They are large in size (wing span of the one was probably about 15 feet). [/ooc] [/QUOTE]
