Academy of Drell, Part 6

[Argent Silvermage]

Rallyn tries to hold it in, but laughter escapes his tightly compressed lips. He gets a hold of himself quickly, winks at Lyrique. And hold a serious face when Keith looks back at him. He continues to follow.

[OOC: I keep getting this image that Lyrique is poking a badger with a spoon. LOL]

 

[Zhure]

Rallyn (with Slith), Sildarin (with Kari and Doyle) Paenderig, Keith, Lyrique and Mortimer, accompanied by Boromin - at the tower

As Sildarin invisibly enters the tower, the now-laughing group is on their way out.

Charlotte and Travellios - giants

Sildarin has been gone a long time, and Travellios is expecting his spell to fail soon, it's magic is becoming unravelled from its duration.

Probably few updates for today - RL campaign needs a ton of work before tonight. Jamis Bucks's generators, here I come... time to swamp them with numerical superiority and tactical inferiority.

 

[GnomeWorks]

Travellios:
"I am simply giddy to discover who she has chosen," he says with a barely suppressed giggle, "There is such a verdant field of beautiful flowers to choose from. None so lovely as you, of course, my...er...Mada-....eh, Charlotte."

Charlotte sighs a sigh of irritation.

"That sounds very much like my own homeland, except in reverse... the men were in charge, had all the power, made all the decisions. In fact, my family arranged for me to marry someone..."

She pauses for a moment before continuing.

"...but I found out some rather unsavory things about... him. So, in a fit of disregard for society, I came here. I don't think much of nobility... society is far too restrictive. When a society allows things like... him... to roam freely, I refuse to believe that it works. The system is broken, and I intend to fix it."

 

[Dalamar]

Sildarin's disembodied voice suddenly springs forth
"Trouble a the giant's... captured.. hurry!"
Not really waiting to see how the others react, the elven nomad heads back to the giant's lair.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Lyrique's head snaps around. "I just got a telepathic message from Sildarin. They're in trouble. We need to help them." He than looks at the others who obviously heard it to, "Um. did we all get it?"

 

[Jeremy]

The giant's been captured? Nevermind. Run.

Rallyn sets the best pace he can, wishing desperately for his little shaggy haired pony. So much for diplomacy.. Splitting up is **never** a good idea...

 

[Dalamar]

Where are you running?! I still have no legs!
I don't have the time right now, they need my help!
That's not fair!
Life ain't fair.

 

[Tokiwong]

Keith hearing the message starts to run, heading for the Giant's lair... "Well, looks like diplomacy has paid off once more..." in his usual casual, if almost unconcerned tone.

 

[Calim]

Paendaerig watches as Rallyn and Keith start running off to where ever they think they are going. "Ok so the other guys got into trouble and now we run to there rescue not knowing what is going on?" He looks around again at Lyrique and Boromin. "They are going to get themselves killed doing that what we need to do is sneak up look at the situation and make a plan on how best to retrieve our fallen brethren." Sigh.

"We are far enough away we can walk and plan on the way, and I have seen the giants place already so we plan can as we go but it is going to be dark unless we hurry to get there."

Paendaerig hoping the rest are following and not blindly running into a giant will start off at a brisk walk just short of a run directlty towards the giants cave using his woodland skills and not relying on a trail.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

"Lead on Paendaerig. I'll follow up with Boromin." Lyrique looks at the silent man and says "Are you well? You've been awfully quiet."
