A Merc's Life: Howl of the Carrion King [01]

OOC:

OK, I've got Harnry and Aodhán cleaning the altar, Keeland and Houwlou looking about. When you say see what you can scent, are you talking about sifting through the rubble and bodies or looking around for more enemies. If it's the latter, where will you look?

OOC: I was thinking we'd make our way about this level with Keeland's light and see what might be lurking in dark corners and then regroup and explore any other levels we find after a rest.
 

Houwlou Groulenas

Houwlou will begin to rummage and look through the rubble, but then, seeing Keeland beginning to wader out of the room, he abandons that search and hurrries to join the bard. "A good ranger can't let a comparative non-combatant like you go traipsing off unescorted through a wild place like this!" ;)
 

Harnry and Aodhán continue their grueling work as Houwlou noses through the wreckage. Just as the Olcán sees something glimmer under the grim remains of the 'candelabra,' hinting at the potential that other treasures are to be found beneath, Keeland strides past expressing his intention to explore the rest of the ground floor. The doughty Ranger immediately leaves his task and goes to protect his Merc brother.
 

Houwlou Groulenas

As he is turning to follow Keeland, Houwlou says to the others, "Keep searching guys, I just saw something shiny and promising." He points to where he saw the "glint."

"wouldn't it be funny if all of this rubbing to clean this alter causes a genie to come out of the alter?"
 

Divide & Conquer?

"Keep searching guys, I just saw something shiny and promising."

With these parting words, Keeland and Houwlou head back out of the chapel and into the nave. Keeland's glowing bow bravely lights the area in their immediate vicinity - full dark has come to the mountains.

(OOC: You haven't explored into the two alcoves just outside the chapel to the north and south, and of course there's that largish blacked out area as well.)

Aodhán and Harnry are making good headway on the altar . . . the parts you've cleaned seem almost to glow. In fact, though you attributed it at first to your hard work Aodhán notices that the altar actually has begun to glow softly, and though the high desert night can become quite chilly the two of you remain quite comfortable as you work.

An arrow at the ready, Keeland leads the way to the northern alcove...

OOC: I'm going to be out of town for fall break, please npc Keeland in my absence. I should be posting again Friday. I'll post if I get a chance, but don't expect to have much time for it.
