[QUOTE="JharyOConnah, post: 8072972, member: 7016431"] Selythin had the hobgoblin still up against the wall. The big hairy guy had his hands up and was still eagerly cooperating. He stared hard at Selythin. [B]"Theresh jush Fib'Karna...bossh mansh upshstairs..."[/B] He pointed UP with large index finger. [B]"Bossh Fib'Karna and he'ssh makin' tha beastssh..."[/B] It was difficult to understand the brute's accent, but it was obvious he was saying his boss was above. The hunched little pixie, Oovin, the former grand vizier to the now-dead-queen sipped at the water one more time, panting. He gestured at the hobgoblin, then he spoke again: [B]"I think the hairy jailor means the guy upstairs. His boss...some pompous wizard who thinks that Chaos's blessings will last forever...His name's Fib'Karna. We fought. He killed the queen so Chaos gifted him YOUR kingdom...princess...err...queen...Aloe..."[/B] He looked around, at Alan and Selythin, Page and Eovin. Sighed loud. A tear welled up in his eye. [B]"As for proof...and the powerful illusion which protected you, cocoon-like, until now...If we can reclaim my wand...The Grand Vizier's Rod...which, unfortunately is upstairs in Fib'Karna's clutches...THEN I could remove the magic and reveal your destiny..."[/B] He looked at Eovin, still hovering nearby, rubbing her head after the good whack in the hallway. She muttered something about a welt. [B]"As for you, Eovin, I suspect you suspect what I suspect...err...My name is Oovin...I'm your kin. The Grand Vizier's lineage is in your blood...magic...destiny...If things would've worked out better I would've come and brought you here myself. Unfortunate. Unfortunate indeed. Your folks would've been proud you made it here all on your own anyway...And to help your dear, decrepit old uncle..."[/B] He looked around at everyone, sniffling wildly. [B]"Does anyone have a hanky?"[/B] Page looked around. After a moment cousin Zenythin produced a handkerchief. [B]"Keep it..."[/B] Oovin blew his nose loudly, a weird sound reverberating about the small dungeon, before he continued: [B]"So...simply put...Aloe...queen...Eovin...vizier...your destinies shall be fulfilled if you can just retrieve my rod from Chaos' thrall, Fib'Karna...He's taken over the queen's chambers above...with rod in hand I can remove the magic illusions which blind you.
