[QUOTE="megamania, post: 6811446, member: 9255"] THE MORGRAVE ADVENTURES “04 THE STOLEN” SEGMENT 35 “QUAD AND OTHERS” 01/23/16 SYPHEROS 25, 1000 UNDERSHARN RUINS-- THE CAVERN OF FOUR FALLS Kar-Draith has headed to the same area as Diana. However, even as he reaches the three foot submerged rooftop, an half-orc is spotted striding down a set of stairs leading into the wall with cascading water coming down it. “I am Quad and you are dead….” The half-orc slowly pulls out a highly reflective falchion. A series of marks and swirls on his neck begin to glow red then he is covered with swirling arcs of colored light. Hardfist finally grasps the rope even as Gears bobs just off the stone floor about fifty feet down. The fish-men turn their attention to the goliath. Even under the water, one back hand by him nearly takes out one. They flank him and begin to attack with their spears even as he tries to save his “puppy” Gears. Kar-Draith meets the attacking half-orc and soon the half-orc finds himself thrown into the water. Now he is an easy target in the water.

As they cross the bridge and an area of dry stone they are met by a halfling. The halfling is about to challenge them when taken down by a charging Gears. Knocked out, they take him for questioning and continue on. A poor archer that is completely hidden from view fires on them. Completely exposed, they flee.
