Academy of Drell, Part IV

[Dalamar]

Sildarin's breathing eases noticeably as T'or lays his hands on the wound.
"Let me now... return the favor."
Sildarin rests his own hand on T'or and manifests empathic transfer, bringing forth fresh flowers that cover T'or and then disappear, accompanied by the whispering of the wind. Up to 12 points of healing, to get rid of the temp HP
"Better?"

"Anybody... anybody else in... need of healing..."
If others express their interest in being healed, Sildarin manifests vigor to take the damage, followed by empathic transfer for the actual healing. I can repeat this up to 8 times, then I only have 1 pp left.

"Will you two be okay taking care of the children? I'll help Charlotte scout ahead."

 

[Zhure]

Palasant asks for directions, or for someone to lead him and the two children to this "cave."

Sildarin doesn't need to manifest Empathic Transfer, T'or seems completely healed.

Still need to know where Charlotte (and now Ellie) are going to scout.

 

[Jeremy]

Rallyn looks to Sildarin, "Would you please take Palasant and the children back to the cave? Find Victor and rest up a little. Ellie, Charlotte, and I will come find you after we've had a look-see."

 

[Dalamar]

Sildarin nods.
"Will you... come with me..."

He then heads back to the lake under which the cave was. He checks every once in a while that the three are still following him.

Nobody wanted healing it seems

 

[GnomeWorks]

Charlotte is going to head towards the school a little ways, getting in view of the school and looking around. If she can't do that without being seen by orcs, then she will shadow the orcs for around a half-mile. If she finds anything of interest before she reaches that distance, then she will turn back and head to the cave.

Once the half-mile mark is reached after shadowing the orcs, Charlotte will return to the cave.

 

[Zhure]

Sildarin and Palasant
Palasant follows Sildarin to the grove, carrying the two youngsters. It seems incongruous, him carrying them, since he's only a foot taller than Lehsa.

When Palasant hears about the water entrance, he appears but looks askance at the water. He sets Lehsa and T'or down.

"Wait here for me," he says to the children, then dives into the water without ceremony.

A quick splash later and he resurfaces, gesturing for them to come to him in the water. "It looks clear." Lehsa seems reluctant to get wet, but is less stubborn after Palasant splashes her with the water, proving it's warm.

Once inside the underground caverns, you find Sh'ar near the entrance to the pool, attended by the others left behind earlier. He is conscious now, but is reclined against a wall.

"Victor went off exploring," Sh'ar says.

Rallyn, Ellie, and Charlotte

The three companions creep around as best as possible, trying not to become noticed by any of the orcs. As they get closer to the core of the school, it's obvious there are hardly any students around. The few that can be seen (from a distance) are all being held much as Palasant, Lehsa and T'or were.

All of the groups now seem to be headed toward the town, southward, toward where the docks are.

A few wandering patrols are obvious, but they seem a bit slipshod, as if they don't feel threatened.

 

[Dalamar]

A smile forms on Sildarin's face when he sees Sh'ar.
"Good to see... that your up again."

After making sure that Palasant and the kids are okay, Sildarin heads for a corner and rests his back against the wall. He sits down and closes his eyes.
Even though his body has almost completely recovered from wounds, his mind is still in a small chaos.

 

[novyet]

"So someone pays these orcs to attack, and capture the students, but to what end? It's obvious the orcs don't feel at risk at all. This just doesn't add up yet. What are we missing?"

 

[Lichtenhart]

In the meantime...

While his new friends investigate on what's happening on the surface, Victor tries to solve some of the cave misteries. After securing Sh'ar is safe with Kith, Keith and Arana, he goes back to what seems the only way out of the cave, the doorway where Kith detected alteration magic. Previously they only threw a coin through it, and it seemed to scatter down a passage. he wants to find out if the magic is harmful, and if Yodwin and Cole went there.
Sh'ar needs medical assistance; I need to find a way to take him out of here, and soon!
