[QUOTE="Olgar Shiverstone, post: 3848486, member: 5868"] [b]Session 2: Raid & Betrayed.[/b] After a day of rest, study, and training Thalas returned to the Vanderboren manor to find the rest of his comrades gathered in the manor's dining room. Lavinia Vanderboren, dressed in serviceable garb rather than her traditional finery, was waiting on them, accompanied by a short, heavily armed human male garbed in leather. "So, are we off to storm the Castle?" Thalas asked. "You are to accompany me to my family's ancestral vault," Lavinia replied. "Though I have never myself entered it, stories handed down for generations say that the vault has some terrible guardian. This signet ring will gain us entry, but what lies beyond will be quite dangerous. You services as guard will be required." "So we aren't storming the Castle?" Thalas whined to Athal. [i]So much for sticking it to the man.[/i] "Surely you have to know more about what awaits us. What if we are forced to kill guards to gain entry?" Lavinia blanched. "I'm certain that will not be necessary. Castle Teraknian has served as the traditional vault for noble families of Sasserine for centuries. But do as you must. Unless you object? And may I introduce Quinn, who will be joining us." At this she motioned to the short man. "His skills may be useful." "Are you suggesting we need help?" asked Morderas. "I know little enough about what we need," Lavinia replied, "but certainly more help is welcome. The vault is guarded by [i]something[/i], but what that is I am not certain." "So long as we don't have to split our share with him," Morderas grumbled. [i]I'm not sure I like this ... but she's paying the bills, for the moment[/i]. "Very well," Thalas replied, "You paid the piper; we'll dance to your tune." The group exiting the manor and climbed aboard a waiting carriage, which Lavinia swiftly directed through the streets and across the bridges of Sasserine, eventually arriving outside the gates of the imposing fortress that is Castle Teraknian.
