[QUOTE="Hrothgar, post: 3351768, member: 22226"] Mardo can only wonder what desperation, what fear, could drive a group of miscast heroes in an Age of Shadow to confide such terrible and damning secrets in a river trader. What horrors could await these Heroes as they travel south? And, most importantly for Mardo, what horrors did these Heroes bring with them up the River El? Could their pursuers be lying in wait in Elswier? If their stories were true, what terrible tortures did any of the Shadow's agents perform on the people of Elswier? And what would they do to the gnome that took the Heroes upriver? As glib of tongue and strong of will as Mardo was, what would he do as his bones were splintered, his eyes burned with white hot iron, his skin peeled from his quivering flesh? A cold shudder runs through the gnome. The gruesome practices of the legates and their dire agents were well known to one as well traveled as Mardo. The choice was clear. Venture with these desperate people in a seemingly hopeless quest across Erenland, or return north on the River El, trusting to his own skills to bypass pursuers of this motely crew. Both ways were dangerous. Both ways could potentially lead to the end of Mardo's life as he knew it. Disembarking from the water craft, the Heroes stand on the southern bank of the river waiting for Mardo's reply. To the south, the plains of Erenland begin to waver under the warm sun. As seemingly peaceful as they appeared now, what horrors do they hold? It is Mardo's choice to make. [COLOR=SlateGray]OOC: Bihlbo, what will Mardo decide?[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
