[QUOTE="Pacio49, post: 2422043, member: 28472"] [b]To Smash A Giant[/b] At this stage, the party has rested quite well in the Tower, and during this break from all of the excitement, several of the active members ([i]those who were able to make the pickup game at Christmastime[/i]) of the party were investigating the upper reaches of Karal's Tower when they were alerted to the fact that strangers were approaching within visual range of the ruined shadow of the Tower back in Tol Vehara. The party received their first real view of the namesake for the Rangers of the Blasted Lands, the Dust Riders, as they watched a large plume of dust being kicked up as a ragtag group of adventurers raced toward the ruins of the Tower with several giants and ogres on their tails, following at a distance and enjoying the sport of lofting boulders at the fleeing group as they went along. Before anyone could react, a giant scored a direct hit on one of the already-lagging party members and knocked him clear off of his horse where he lay still, his head at an odd angle to the rest of his body. As the group began to move to go assist, Marcus laid his hand on Arien's arm. "What if they're evil?" "Even if they are evil, they're no match for those giants, and all are welcomed in a Haven. I'm going to help them." Moments later, Arien appeared in the view from the scrying glass as she used the upper tower's Teleport pads to Bamf herself all the way to the back door, followed momentarily by Laeka and a grumbling Marcus. Queen Zartha also appeared with several of the taller fae in tow, ready to receive any wounded which gained entry to the Tower. As the party members arrived down at the Vale outside the ruined manifestation of Karal's Tower, they watched as another lucky shot from a giant careened into the side of the lead horse and rider, the man who was dressed as a Dust Rider, and caught him full on in a leg which was already bound with bandages and bloodied. He gave a cry, his horse gave a scream, and down the two went. Marcus waded into the fray, spewing [i]fireballs[/i] to the left and right, confusing the Giant and allowing the remainder of the straggling group to gain the relative safety and shade of the Tower. A few lightning bolts and a deflected boulder or two later and the giants gave up their sport, just as the party grabbed the group and brought them inside. (more to come) [/QUOTE]
