[QUOTE="Morte, post: 653019, member: 9413"] [b]Session 2 part 1[/b] The party went back into the sewers and decided to search around before returning to the ministry. Here under St Aelax Field, which was mostly an open expanse of cobbles, there were some quite large rooms opening up off the maintenance corridors. They might perhaps have been used for equipment storage once, but they all seemed empty now. … Until, that is, they found one room with a fenced off enclosure at the back. Stood in the enclosure were three or four trolls, who seemed to be keeping warm around a campfire. The trolls immediately rushed up to the fence snarling and poking their long arms trough the railings to claw at the party. Everybody unlimbered their ranged weapons and opened fire, except Merlinda who went for lightning and Lafajet who, yes, walked up to the bars and started to try and melee two trolls through a set of iron railings with a spiked ball on the end of a chain. He changed his mind quickly, and backed off to fire magic missiles. When Merlinda’s third and final Call Lightning blew the gate off its hinges, it also finished the trolls. Trolls. They had come to Suzail for a mission to investigate troll attacks outside the city. And here they were in the sewers. What could this mean? They searched around. There was another door on the far side of the room, which led out the back of the troll compound. It opened… right onto the main sewer. Half the party nearly ended up swimming. “I think the trolls may be linked to our quest for Lord Blake” said Mabel. “Yes, I think they may be linked too” said a voice behind them. They turned rapidly, and found a man stood in the blasted gateway watching them. He was dark-skinned, wore leather, his head was shaven except for a black topknot, and he held a composite short bow in one hand. “And who might you be” asked Lia, as casually as she could. “You are the group Gert recruited, yes? I recognise you from his descriptions. I am Ahmed. Which of you is Merlinda and which is Lia?” “I’m Lia. Good to find you at last.” Lia exhaled visibly.
