NEMO stops short, not in a panic just yet but ready to fall into one at the slightest provocation, but a tap on his shoulder from Toriq quickly turns his attention to the door they find themselves next to. The halfling makes fast work of the lock and quietly opens the door, ushering everyone...

Seeing the small boy's focus firmly up at the large warden, masked and carrying shield and longsword, MYLISTRA acts quickly and quietly. First she murmurs, "stay absolutely still! Don't move until you hear me say, 'let's go,' then follow us." Then a cloud of darkness instantly descends upon the...

Just as he has a few times before with this group, the young halfling takes charge. He first suggests to the others that freeing all the prisoners might be a sound tactic, providing not only a distraction in the escape, but freedom as well to those who dearly need it. Then, he hands the pilfered...

Okay: here is an accounting of offline conversation going forward: first, an accounting of where our heroes stand after the skirmish with the dreaded Blue Slime, after a short rest: Jendi: HP: 27/31, with 5/8 Surges remaining, All Dailies, and 2 Action Points available Mylistra: HP: 25/29...

Momentarily stunned by what she is witnessing, PA'AVU hesitates. A mental push from her gosb'tar - <go!> - releases her feet from the gravity of this mental space, and the goliath leaps high and far, sailing like a meteor through the air. Somehow - without the limitations of the material world -...

Thank you, @darkbard ! And here i will type with a thumb, plus my utilize copy-and-paste skills!! Bemused, PA'AVU looks down at the object placed in her hand by Rietka: a small jade figurine of a reptile. The goliath holds up the figure and turns it to catch the light. She remembers hunting...

PA'AVU has barely a moment to adjust to the change in scenery wrought by the arcane apparatus - green trees, birds in flight, the scent of fresh, rushing water - before she sees movement out of her peripheral vision: a missile coming at her, hard and fast. But she already knows this attack is...

PA'AVU holds the bladeling's stare for a long moment and allows amusement to grow in her generally stoic face. Then, she grins ... with all of her teeth. "And so we will retire to another venue so that your humiliating martial defeat at the hands of a superior opponent will be less ... public."...

TORIQ looks over Nemo's shoulder and sighs. "Okay, this part is going to be a bit tricky. Kícheh*, I'm going to hold you as we slide down, all right?" Over her shoulder she instructs Jendi and Mylistra to do the same: travel downward together. She explains that this will lessen the chances of...

TORIQ shakes her head, vaguely bemused: how the heck will she fit through there? Nemo should obviously have no problems. He might even be able to walk upright. Both Jendi and Mylistra are slender enough to slither on through, although her brother will not be thrilled with the damp nor the muck...

Juniper watches as her children, her apprentice, and the newest member of their little "family" examine the necklace taken from the sheriff, occasionally asking some prodding questions, such as what makes Toriq so sure that its origins are "her" alien rock in the forest? and how did they...

At Davos's outburst, MYLISTRA and Jendi both turn to leave, but Toriq stops in her tracks. The sheriff's emphatic gesture with his arm has caused his greatcoat to open, revealing the necklace he is wearing, a leather cord holding a fragment of stone... a very specific stone. In fact, Toriq has...

JENDI immediately intervenes, reminding Davos diplomatically that rumors, while not actual proof of something being true, are proof that the idea is possible and needs investigating. "I realize you've know Cosmo for about as long as I've been alive," Jendi smiles winningly, "but we don't always...

At this point, NEMO decides to speak up, to the surprise of everyone, Davos in particular who either has forgotten the halfling's presence or never noticed it to begin with. "Um ... down on the docks, we've been noticing some strange shipments coming in - not sure what's being delivered, but...

MYLISTRA risks a quick glance up at Davos's red face before returning her gaze demurely downcast. She is careful to keep her vaguely petulant frown on her face as she rapidly thinks through several scenarios. So far, the interview with Elena's father is moving along as expected, perhaps even...

Mylistra draws herself up tall, illustrating that perhaps Juniper is not the only one to be "respected," but she stumbles a bit crossing over the threshold of the room, somewhat spoiling the effect. Davos smirks as he watches the elfling catch her by the elbow to keep her from falling and...

Armed with coin and bravado, JENDI leads the intrepid group into the gaol. He quickly spots their target, a young halforc female sitting alone at the desk, looking disconsolate and possibly bored. She looks up from the pencils she is playing with, eyes sharpening at the folks standing before...

Mylistra steps forward and holds up a hand in greeting, as - with her other hand - she quickly tucks her knife away into the band of her skirt. "Good lady!" she calls in greeting, "the dry spell of this evening has tempted so many outside to peramble and stroll!" With a warm smile, she adds...

A young voice calls out, "Yiorgos! Keep your hands - and those of your ... friends - off those good and honest folk." The constable in question turns in surprise. Then, seeing the small halfling step out of the shadows, his face turns to a sneer, the sneer growing as he sees the tall beautiful...

For a long moment no one speaks, no one moves. The diminutive elder stares without blinking at the Guardian. The Guardian stares right back. Then, Mylistra, placing her hand on TORIQ's arm, speaks softly and earnestly to her friend. "I know you don't like to talk much about the good you do...
