Antapkos will augment his athletic skill and throw his javelin at his closest opponent. Siofrita will shoot her arrow at the other while mystically assaulting him by bending chemical waylines to cause more physical harm. Cormorant and Kuwaia both close the distance to their chosen foes, both...

Knowing it would be foolish to engage such numbers without the benefit of the other, Sprthnt and Kuwaia run back to the camp. Sprthnt yells as he runs, “Coming in!” Kuwaia draws her ularin sword and enhances her strength, as she runs. When she reaches camp, she turns back to face the incoming...

Astrid, in an off-hand comment says, "Vid hittum undarlegasta folkid i pessum skogi." She continues in Shimadow, "which is to say, we meet the stragest people in this forest. I am Astrid. I may look like a very tall Shimadow, but I am an Aedaman of the Norikadian tribe. I was raised with my...

Having made steps, literally, to rid themselves of their adolescently undisciplined dolor, the six split into their amorous pairs as they travel. Antapkos and Siofrita will take the lead, since Siofrita has a bow, following as reasonably close to the river as possible looking for game or...

The Markidian man, dressed more practically than flamboyantly, speaks in an articulate and precise manner, distinctly void of emotion, though not monotonous, by any means. "Forgive me for not introducing myself, first. I am called Plumeir (pronounced like Ploom Air). I am an inventory clerk...

Cormorant gave his Heartsone to Antapkos, after he replaced it with the Grapestone. The Bloodstone, Sunstone, and Songbird Feathers were discarded or given to the accompanying caravan members, if they desired them. Antapkos, with Siofrita by his side, told the story of the attack on the caravan...

Gaio looks over at Belaria, giving her one of those knowing looks. "Fine, fine," she says. "I will trust your feelings on this. When we get back to town, we should ask of the manner of that creature."79

On the road back, five of the six youths will fondle the talismans or stones they discovered to determine their mystical usefulness. Kuwaia will, of course, give her's to Sprthnt. As it is still several days back, Siofrita and Sprthnt will flank the traveling group in order to acquire game.76

With the rush of adrenaline abated, especially since his had been mystically enhanced, Adisakti lets out a long sigh and sits in the road, reflexively enhancing his natural rate of recovery. His image is no longer attempting to match the surroundings. "Hey Taylar, now that he is dead, take off...

Gaio shakes his head. He wishes to leave the creature in peace. He says, "I get a bad feeling about this." Belaria begins to whirl a slingstone. "Where is your sense of adventure?"59

Sprthnt decides to put another arrow in the Graggorid who Antapkos had injured. Cormorant shrugs at hearing the comment. He begins to remove any bodies from the road, killing any of the Talons who still breathe. Antapkos turns to face the guards, motioning for everyone to come back out. “The...

Seeing that the previous lightning vanished from existence just like he had made happen to the horse, Adisakti hopes the nearness of Vittero can spare him from another jolt. The first one was still hurting. Pushing through the pain, Adisakti is not much of a bender, so he must rely on his...

Kuwaia does not know if she can outrun the spear throw, but she does not hesitate in her forward motion; instead, she shifts her body from side to side and draws her ularin sword, as she runs. Though she is bodily smaller than the Mhytre, she will run into him at full speed, slamming her...

Oops. Corrected.

Seeing that things are unfolding differently than he had anticipated, Adisakti, while augmenting his athletic skill, will flick out his right saber to hamstring the horse's back right leg. He thinks to himself, "So this thing is not a horse but looks like one. I will see if it can bleed."75, 83

Antapkos and Sprthnt say, almost simultaneously and verbatim, “I am not running from these savages.” Antapkos, mystically obscuring his image, holds his short sword in his left hand and his javelin in his right. The javelin is readied to be thrown. Sprthnt does the same, quickly drawing an...

Cormorant nods at the guard speaking, then bodily carries him away from the road to hide him in the scrub foliage. Britta and Kuwaia, together, carry one of the caravaners. Antapkos helps the guard who can walk using his javelin. Once Cormorant and Britta return from carrying their firsts, they...

Once the rider is far enough passed him, Adisakti moves out of hiding, draws his weapons, and walks directly in the wake of the horse, so as to still be out of sight of the rider. His image is still camouflaged, even though he is obvious to direct observation.69
