[QUOTE="megamania, post: 6836046, member: 9255"] THE MORGRAVE ADVENTURES “04 THE STOLEN” SEGMENT 36 “DRECK d’TARKANAN” 01/23/16 SYPHEROS 25, 1000 UNDERSHARN RUINS- THE CAVERN OF FOUR FALLS As they return the group takes more caution as they reach the bottom of the staircase. Now they can see small imprints of foot tracks in the wet mold on the floor. They see Fellize’s and their own tracks turning right. They see many more tracks to the left including theirs as they left in a hurry. There is much more traffic this way. As they step out of the shelter of a stone wall the archer begins to attack once more. They hurry past it and take shelter at the rocks. The archer has to go. Hardfist charges out from the waterfall and down the stairs while Kar-Draith and the artificer with Gears turn back into the area being shot at and leap into the water below. Kar-Draith leaps into deeper water while Diana and Gears land onto what becomes an emerged stairway. Still not slowing down, the goliath charges forward. There is a twenty foot gap between one block and where the archer seems to be hiding. He leaps and makes it. This action catches the archer unprepared and she flees from her hiding spot. Even then, she is hard to follow as it is a magical effect mixed with skill that she is so well hidden. The goliath runs her over and takes her down in one blow. Amazed, the others watch him jump back at a closer spot that is only 15ft across. “To climb the mountains where I come from- I had to jump really well.” Adds the brawler with a silly smile of humbleness. They meet no more resistance as they work alone the water and bridges to the “Dretch’s” hideout. Once there, they ready themselves and climb the stairs where water ripples down the steps with bubbly enthusiasm. At the top of the stairs is a dark room with a few tables with books and notes sprawled on them and a warforged dressed in simple religious monk’s robes and cap. “Welcome. I am sorry my fellow brothers and sisters did as they did but it was required.” The warforged doesn’t move and speaks in a haunting quiet peaceful tone. “How can I help you?” Diana notices a terrible glowing green scar on its faceplate. It is largely hidden by the headpiece and cowl it wears. “We are tasked with finding and returning a stolen book.” Answers the halfling with some caution. She is expecting a fight…. Or at least a trap. “We followed it to here….. to you. Dretch.” “Please- call me Dreck. You are…..” it asks with still no movement. “Hardfist, Kar-Draith and I am Diana. This is Gears. The book….?” “It is here on the table. I recently finished it. If you wish, you may return it for me and gain it’s reward. I don’t mind.” No one moves. No one trusts this strange warforged. “Who….. who is Tarkanan?” asks Kar-Draith. “My brothers and sisters are Tarkanan. I , strangely enough, am Tarkanan. Why did you kill brother Guri?” This is it- the fight is about to begin figures Diana. “He tried to kill us.” She answers. “Try…. Perhaps. Do…. I doubt. My brothers and sisters are precious to me. I wish them not to be harmed further.” “Then don’t attack us.” The lizardfolk makes clear and as something of a threat. Diana collects the book and looks around while doing so. There are books and journals here about the Dragonmarked houses and the Draconic Prophecy. “If you promise to keep our home a secret then I agree. As I said, I have already read the book. I have no need for it anymore. Take it, leave the other books and leave our home.” A glint of green energy sparks from his right eye. The four of them back out slowly and then turn to leave. The book is returned and each of the three are given money by the professor. He will return it the next day for payment. As they leave, he asks they remain in the city as he is onto something from Jaxen’s journal. [/QUOTE]
