[QUOTE="Sic_Pixie, post: 5876925, member: 52403"] [b]End of the Trail of the Beast .... and a pause to recharge[/b] The next morning they wake up and have themselves a lie in; tis a glorious luxury for them to do so. Grembor is looking to have them adamantine weapons forged from the trapdoor they discovered and is also looking for somewhere he can spend several hours fashioning himself a bow which will be made to his specifications. Sayuri and Kat stay in bed till late morning enjoying the novelty of the situation while Pringle sits up reading his books trying to master a new spell of exceptional complexity. He has never manipulated quite so much magical energy before and the spell is having trouble sticking in his mind without it leaking out of his ears. He endeavors however and the complex gestures and inflections on the words are slowly sinking into his mind burning inflexible geometric patterns and symbols into his psyche. Grembor visits a fine Dwarven weapon smith first passing over some funds and instructions to make four daggers from the Adamantine; they agree on a price plus the leftover Adamantine which Grembor is happy about as long as the timeline is correct. Two days to coerce the notoriously inflexible material into a new form will be a challenge; after this bargaining Grembor heads to a well respected bowyer and requests politely to use his tools and equipment to fashion himself a bow. He has the skills but lacks the tools or experience and the bow snaps in its initial tests due to a hidden flaw or mistake in manufacture and Grembor leaves somewhat depressed. The bowyer tells him to return the following day as he will sort out the laminating and gluing of the various materials to he can start of the carving and finish off the work. He returns back to the group somewhat depressed; they sit around chatting about the upcoming mission and what they plan; Traveling through the woods hold little surprise for this group; that is apart from Pringle whose favorite type of tree is his books. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- They all arise the next day feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world; Grembor heads out to check on the dagger production before heading to the bowyer while Kat Pringle and Sayuri sit around the bar most of the day chatting till Grembor returns bearing a newly fashioned bow. Later in the afternoon they head out sporting their new adamantine daggers on their hips; heading to the judges house they are welcomed in. Judge Daramid pours them all tea and takes out some items from a box beside her; an amulet, a headband, a quiver and a short sword. She lays them on the table before her and smiles at the party before producing a small bag and placing them beside each item. “Some of these are more powerful than the others but I think they will suit you each quite nicely. Kat I know of your hatred for those undead creatures and considering the course of the path before you I have allowed this item from my family’s past. This short sword is called Gravebane and you will find it particularly useful against those that have dodged the grave. Grembor; you are a fine archer and I have spoken to my order and they produced this item for your use; it can hold a large amount of ammunition plus it can cause your missiles to become enflamed once per day. Pringle and Sayuri I know you less than the others but I hear that your both spellcasters; I present to you each an item that will improve your spellcasting potential and make it easier to overcome your foe’s resistance. Hopefully this will be sufficient recompense for your time investigating the whispering way. Each bag holds some gemstones which you should be able to convert into any funds you require. Good luck with your journey and may the gods look over you.” With this she smiles at the party and takes a sip of her sweet tea before continuing. “Now onto other matters; If you have no objection you need some invitations to gain entrance to Ascanor Lodge as entrance is by invitation only.

We are a secret organization but we do have some pull at the lodge.” Smiling at the party; “Now finish your cup of tea and go kill something my dears … We have evil to protect the world from.” With this startling statement from the mouth of the Judge they drink up and head out and walk back to the Scholars Rest to spend the night before heading out the next day on a perilous mission. [I]DM Note: Here ends the second book in the 6 part series; we are taking a break to allow James to run a Spelljammer campaign for a few weeks to allow me to re-charge my Dm batteries and re-read the next part before trying to kill everyone with it. We will be picking it up again in the next Adventure Broken Moon. … [/I] [/QUOTE]
