[QUOTE="megamania, post: 2093620, member: 9255"] EBERRON 03/12/05 SEGMENT 050 “RAIL WRECK” PT I Just shy of the second 6th, Cedious and Balkroth follow Beth d’ Cannith through Fairhaven’s rail station. They see A long line of about ten cars. Each car is about 70 feet long and 30 wide. Though each is different looking, they have a similar appearance. They vary in texture, cosmetics and some even have stained glass windows. “Which car do we go on?” asks Balkroth to Beth. “Second to last.” She answers. Looking, it would seem an obvious choice. Though similar in design to the others this car is the same bright blue with silver and white trim as the main buildings; the Cannith colors. The rogue halfling steps onto the balcony and steps to the side to allow the others to go by. From here he looks at the activities around him. A flatcar is being loaded using a similar magic energy pulley as what Sharn uses at the docks. The large crates are unmarked and heavy. There are some soldiers or guards looking around doing their normal patrols. There are people of every type, race and class. He sees a scaled woman that he mistakes as a medusa at first glance. With his fingers over his eyes, he briefly looks again and sees she is reptilian. There is a bit of commotion do onto the ramp. Looking he sees a sight he is uncertain if he likes. A ½ Giant! This ½ Giant is bald with dark gray skin. He walks with impunity and pushes through the crowd easily and with little care for the people before him. Behind him another halfling! This one is wearing clothes more Talenta influenced than what he himself wears. Cedious wonders if he was born in Talenta then. This one is riding a wolf also! Wow a wolf! The ½ giant marches directly to the Cannith car and even though Cedious is on the train, he has to look up to meet the behemoth’s eyes. “What do you want ½ pint?” and steps onto the car without waiting for an answer. The wolf hopes up through the folding steps onto the balcony and sniffs Cedious. It looks into his eyes and stares. “Don’t mind Gnarl, he means no harm.” Says the new halfling while climbing aboard. “I am expected and as always- running late.” And the halfling walks into the car and the wolf turns to follow. A shrill whistle calls out and the crackle of the electric rail increases. Cedious feels the car lift a small. His stomach aches as he is reminded of the sensation of sailing on the water. “I need food and drink- not in that order.” And goes in. He closes the door as the rail begins to move. He notices as they leave there are several cloaked figures fighting with the soldiers. They want to pass and board the rail but can not since it is in motion. One looks to be warforged. Cedious hopes this will not mean fighting them again. He remembers his trip in and out of the remains of Cyre. Those warforged had a purpose. What are chances that they are the same ones? Cedious sees money. The entire car is made of the best materials and master craftsmanship. There are small standing trees about five feet tall, an overhead fan that is treated to cool the air then move it away. The floors are carpeted and soft to the touch. There are a few paintings on the walls of this 25x10-foot space that depict the three current heads of House Cannith. Cedious gives Merrix the finger before looking into what else is within the car of value. He hears a voice he doesn’t know. Human. He looks down the hallway and sees Beth talking to a human in armor. A fighter type. All male too. Looking down the hall past the two humans, Cedious sees two doors, one is open and he can hear the two ½ giants talking within the room. Another door at the end is locked and has black glass in the door. That one must lead into the rear / front engine car he figures. Checking the other rooms, he finds two bedrooms. One has a large sack within it. Looking at it, the bag is very sturdy and heavy. Possibly heavier than himself. It is bound with a yellow rope that seems to pull on the top as if being held up. Curiosity begins to take over when he is called out by Beth. Back into the 10x25 feet room, they meet. There are two half-giants, Balkroth and Black Sand. There is a druid halfling and his wolf. There is the human fighter, Beth and himself. So- this is the team thinks Cedious. [/QUOTE]
