I watch Saerie's interaction with the hare in a state of awe. It never ceases to amaze me that she can speak the language of all the beasts in the forest and the mountain. Not only that, they seem to actually defer to the wisdom of whatever words she relays to them. I agree with option 2 and...

Otthor looks at his friend, smiles sheepishly then looks back down. Of course she is right he thinks. "Forgive me my shallowness. Some lessons are easier learned than unlearned." Otthor will insist that Saerie takes the potion. Through the power of his bladespells he has at-will...

I feel the pull of the Bladesong. It is almost a living thing, a symbiote. It wants me to step through worlds, disappearing and reappearing as the spider's filaments futilely strike the wall where I just was. But I trust my instincts and quickness to carry me through. I through my body...

Ooooooh, this is such a bad idea... Appears that these guys really, really don't like fire? Check. I need my frozen legs thawed out and now? Check. I have neither the time nor the space to get a Fireball off on this guy and this guy alone...? Check. So... Right as his spindly spider...

Seeing the snow trickle down not too terribly far from might right, I carefully shimmy several paces, spiraling upward and to my left, to stay clear of the direct impact of the rock or any collateral that might rain down upon me. One of the huge spiders is in free-fall as the top layers of...

I wave Exel and Xanob forward toward the rope and instruct them in goblin. "You two, Saerie, and her bear will attack the spider den from above. I'll attack from below. We'll meet in the middle." I look up to Saerie. "When you're in position, kick some snow over the edge so I can...

We forgot to do this before so I'll take care of it now. 1d8 Goodberries. Rolled 4. Saerie can have all of the Goodberries. When I return with Exel and Xanob, Saerie will be sitting on the boulder up top, knotting the rope to anchor it to the large rock for our climb up to her. I'll walk...

I look back at Exel and Xanob and give them the palm of the hand and finger to my lips signal indicating stay here and keep quiet. I sheathe my blade to momentarily douse the light it produces and slink forward against the wall like a shadow. I need to get a look up that shaft and see what is...

I reach in my pack for the mountaineering supplies that Saerie has requested and hand them over to her. "Be careful." - 1 AG. 2 AG left. I then dutifully go about the task that she has set before me. I grab Exel and Xanob and we head to the opening of the ancient cavern with the walls of...

Full disclosure here and this is not a joke. I was initially going to type..."I stuff the Bundle of Arrows into Saerie's quiver"...errrr... From my quiver, I remove the Bundle of Arrows I retrieved from the other cave. With an agreeing nod, I hand them to Saerie and say "I like our chances...

By the gloom-breaking light of my sword, Exel, Xanob, myself, and my Unseen Servant walk back to the other cave. When we arrive, we put the cold weather gear heaped onto the servant on the worktable. The slaves and refugee family will have long since finished their meal. Exel and Xanob...

I mutter "...very well..." and draw upon blades of cutting air to fell one of my two new foes who is trying to close the distance between us. Wind Slash (Int) 2, 3 + 3 = 8 1d8 damage and 1 technique. 5 - 0 armor = 5 damage. Dead. Soul-Siphoning: Your attack heals you for 1d4. Heal 1d8...

Yeeeeeeeeeah...gonna have to cast my vote for continuing with Dungeon World. Major turnout by the way. We're gonna need a bigger ballot box.

When Saerie requests that I go check on Three Bird and our prospects for provisions for the poor folk of this cave, I pull my hood back on and close my cloak around me, leaving my weapon arm out so the light of my sword can guide me in the mid-day, wintry gloom. I'll leave the family to their...

Because I know she is far too humble to properly introduce herself, I will make sure these poor souls understand who is addressing them. I walk a circuit around the exterior of the room with my magically imbued blade shedding light on the gloom-shrouded faces in the cages. I'll motion toward...

With the freezing cold, the bitter wind, and the sun-obscuring clouds closing in on us all, I pick myself up from the snowy ground that I find myself holding onto after things truly went to hell. I say a few arcane words and touch the blade of my fine elven steel. Cast a Spell (Int) Light 4, 4...

What I'm glimpsing through this breach in the fabric of our reality is obviously the Far Realm. Going to consult my accumulated knowledge on the nature of the Far Realm and on these tears in the fabric of our reality. My guess is that survival in that realm for a creature whose origin isn't...

While the men recover, arcane words spill from my tongue and marry to the symbols I draw in the air. The air around me grows instantaneously warm as a barely contained conflagration rests in the upturned palm of my hand. I throw my open hand forward and the flaming ball leaves it at high...

When Saerie, Rawr and Lucky show up at my side, my morale picks up a beat. That tells me everything I need to know about the status of the battle I left behind. As they square off against one of the huntsmen, I square off against the other. But these men don't bear the many-red-eyed symbol of...

The two hunters' axes spin tightly toward me, cutting through the air with a familiar noise. Fending off the dogs the best I can without hurting them, I wait until the last second and dive out of the way in an aerial somersault. Defy Danger (Dex) 4, 1 + 2 = 7 Success but a worse outcome, hard...
