    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Herger, Starhl, Kaela, Ladriel, and Cyz. Wha...? Ladriel's nervous eyes drift from the darkness surrounding the Heroes to Herger. Her eyes follow the direction that Herger faces and she gasps, trying to stifle sobs. Elrith? I thought you died with the others of your band. Elrith's face...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Herger, Starhl, Kaela, Ladriel, and Cyz. OOC: Ack. I should have anticipated that, Bobitron. :p The twisted Elf's eyes squint in the soft green glow of Kaela's stone having not seen light in some time. His neck twists slightly to stare at Kaela, its very movement sending the Elf's features...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the Wolf. Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the wolf descend down a steep, wooded ravine following the path of their unlikely pathfinder. The Widowmaker is barely visible in the darkness, a darkness that has grown with the steep descent, smothering the Heroes in a...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the Wolf. Quite surprised at the orc's behavior, the Heroes quickly mobilize to follow the tall Widowmaker. Trailing the orc becomes difficult. Despite his size, the orc is moves through the forest with great speed leaving little signs of his passing. However...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow [Recruiting Alternates]

    Thanks, Thornir! :) But, their Con drops to 0 as their hearts explode from the inrush of energy and they raise as slavering fell.

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow [Recruiting Alternates]

    OK, how do I do it? I've seen the spoiler tags, but don't know how to insert them. :D

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow [Recruiting Alternates]

    Hmmm. Good point. If others want me to and someone can show how to do it, I could use "spoiler" tags to hide content so you don't accidently read something you don't want to. :)

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Lodric, Valurel, Mardo, and the Wolf. The tall orc does not immediately answer Valurel's pointed question. Falling to one knee near the golden oak, Thune sniffs the ground while feeling the texture of the new oak. Standing, the Widowmaker strides down to the jumble of broken stones at far...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    OOC: To clear things up, as Thornir said, the wolf is with Lodric, Valurel, and Mardo in Erethor. Kaela, Herger, Starhl, Cyz, and Ladriel are in some unknown place. There were no Elves that accompanied the Heroes, except to Ladriel (and of course Valurel). The Elven remains that dropped from...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Herger's great bulk causes part of the earth to tear asunder, the Giant tumbling overbackward into the gaping abyss. Ladriel, perched on the Giant's shoulder, grasps futilely at the earth, but tumbles into the darkness with a scream. The Heroes can only look on in horror as both Herger and...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow [Recruiting Alternates]

    Everyone I will be on and off vacation over the next few weeks, so my posting will be sporadic. I probably won't have internet connection for the next 5-6 days, but after that I will try to get a post up ASAP.

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    The leaves in the descending branches rustle with anticipation of the bloodletting, as the tree trunks and boughs groan and creak. Backing from the descending green menace, the Heroes' eyes race for any break in the foliage that might be a path to salvation. None are visible, even by the...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    OOC: To clarify, the Heroes are standing amid a mix of standing stones and oaks. The ring of stones is small, maybe twenty feet across, and trees border on its very edge, but none grow in the middle of the ring, only smaller vegetation like forest grass and ferns. The remains of the Elven...

    OK, I'll clarify in the IC thread to keep it all together. If anyone else has questions, feel free to ask.

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Ladriel whispers to Herger Down! Down! Sliding down the Giant's back, she closes her eyes for an instant, before they grow wide in terror. The Whisper! The Forest will tear us to shreds! Outside of the ring of stones, the forest seems to grow dark as the forest bears down on the Heroes...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    OOC: The thrashing sound the Heroes heard was no more than a few minutes previous. Herger feels confident that the sound came from the trees in this area. The Heroes look at Mardo and glance at each other. As their sight drifts to the green forest around them, a chill runs up their spines...

    Midnight: A Lost Faith's Shadow. Book 1, The Awakening. Ch. 5, The Darkening Wood

    Ladriel looks at Starhl and nods. She turns to the broken Elf. Hunter! How did this happen? Did you see the girl and her abductors? The Elf's sobs stop at the voice from below. He looks, without really seeing, the pain in his broken body so intense that his mind swims in red delirium. He...
