"This is all good and very valuable information, Kordunn! But I would know more, please? For example, I am not at all familiar with this person whom you so eloquently refer to as 'the Black Tyrant." I would hear more about him and how he figures into the story of our quest on behalf of New Phlan. Also, this 'dark god' that you mention, does he have a name that you feel comfortable speaking aloud here on such a glorious day as this?"

 

[Thanee]

As the party approaches the library, moving through the narrow alleys with debris and ruined walls next to them, Emagor seems slightly distracted suddenly.


[SBLOCK=Emagor]A weak feeling of danger comes through the empathic link. With the knowledge from past experiences, there seems to be no imminent danger to each of you, just right now, but potential danger closely ahead.[/SBLOCK]

"Ahhh, slow down, friends. Let us take particular care as we proceed with our errand. There are sinister forces on the move." Emagor will also call softly to Peabody, "Stay close to me, Little One, in fact, just come here and ride on my shoulder." When Emagor says this, a big iguana, that had been climbing along the alley walls near the party, perks up and leaps onto Emagor's shoulder, his gross, scaly dewlap waving with delight at being in contact with his master again.

"The "Black Tyrant" is an appellation for the evil god of tyranny and strife, Bane. A major temple to that dark lord lies across the river. We struck it this week and succeeded in setting it afire before we made good our escape. I believe it is this church at least in part that is responsible for unifying the humanoids that plague New Phlan. Probably through supporting a powerful tyrant of a warlord of some sort who commands absolutely."

"Well, then, in that case, if we can do so without provoking the wrath and retrubution of his Dark Lord Bane, why don't we just rid the world of this Pain in the Posterior Tyrant Warlord? Seems a perfectly simple, straightforward, and highly effective solution to me!" Peabody the iguana has arranged himself across Emagor's shoulders now so that he is in the optimum position to bask in the sun during his ride through the streets.

 

[Scotley]

The halfling smiles at their new companion's eagerness. "Perhaps we will. Let's just hope they post a reward for him first."

 

[Thanee]

The iguana, that is now riding on Emagor's shoulders, is speaking to him. The language sounds strange and noone else even reckognizes it, much less understands what he is saying.


[SBLOCK=Emagor]Peabody tells you about maybe half a dozen big guys, bit bigger than you, with steel in their hands, standing watch in front of the huge house. He also thinks that he has heard someone or something move between the broken houses not too far ahead.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Leif]

Emagor, Human Fighter|Wizard

"Peabody tells me that there are a half dozen armed men standing guard in front of the 'huge house,' whatever that means, and also that we are about to have company here! He heard someone moving amongst the houses ahead."

Eldwyn

"Be brave my friends, we've faced many foes and now with our new companions we will be even stronger..." Eldwyn drops a skiprock into his sling as he encourages his fellows.

"Oh, I'm not scared, Eldwyn," says Emagor, clearly resolved that his new companions will be utterly convinced of his bravery. "I just thought that I should make the group aware of the situation."
