[QUOTE="PieAndDragon, post: 3646809, member: 18108"] [B]Embedded Blade[/B] Liverpate was up and his wounds cured by magic within minutes, treated during the battle already by our newest, handsome companion. Standing so he could see all of the fallen, Hoisin searched for magical trinkets, shouting with surprise as an object across the rushing waters started to glow from a large sandbank. We clustered for a closer look, seeing a hilt jutting from the sand. A second glow came from the fallen priest’s body, although we were unsure of its source. Seeing my companions were unwilling to risk the waters, I stripped off armour and heavy clothing in preparation for the plunge, Taking only a spear with me, several strides and good dive plunged me into the frothing waters, a rope secured around my waist and held by the men. The river was surprising warm, but also too powerful for me, although I managed to hold my breath as I was swept downstream. Struggling with arms and legs, I broke the surface and was pulled by the rope to the shore, breathing heavily from the exertion. For my second attempt to gain the magical sword, we moved slightly upriver, and this time I had no trouble making it to the sandbank. Pausing a moment to search around for anything else on the bank, I found nothing and pulled the blade from the sand, to find a shortsword. My companions were disappointed, having hoping for a larger sword instead. Swimming back aided by the rope, I gave the sword over to Drake, the most likely of my allies to use it. The next few hours I watched for any more signs of broo in the cave, as the others burnt broo bodies in a pyre, ridding the world of their diseased flesh and possessions. Saxony guarded Drake as he found some more healing herbs near to the river and Hoisin pulled out a magical crystal from the priests burnt remains, identifying it as a power storage crystal. After a brief debate we handed this to Saxony to use for the moment. Keen to continue, we made our way deeper into the caves, navigating around a crude pit trap and taking a short time to cross over a slippery stone bridge. Below was the churning river, and I crossed by foot without any problems, roped once more just in case. After Hoisin slipped and almost plunged into the depths, my companions crawled across on their stomachs, pride taking second place to safety. As they finished crossing, I moved to investigate a fire visible at the end of the tunnel, finding four more broo gathered among the rocks of another cavern, conversing around the flames and oblivious to us. Unfortunately one of them was also alert, catching sight of me, at which time I shouted back to my allies of the four broo that awaited them. [/QUOTE]
