Message: <blockquote data-quote="Uriel" data-source="post: 1117697" data-attributes="member: 8222">Telerin carries the wounded man up the porch and inside the Cottage.Bekkle exclaims 'Thas Darryn, Krimp's oldest, brother to the poor LAd lying here passed on, may th' Greenman keep him safe.' Bekkle pulls a small Vial from his satchel, upending some of the draught into Darryn's mouth.The man coughs, blood-flecked bile runnign down his chin and his eyes open. Seeing you all, he is momentarily panicked, then he recognizes Bron Bekkle and his eyes relax. He notes his little sister standing next to him, wiping tears from her eyes and he even manages a small smie.With a quiet and weak tone he says 'My Da and Mum, Bron...they...' Darryn breaks off, tears streaming down his face, his teeth gritted with Hate.'IT came an hour ago, such a east. It tore the head clean off of our cow, like it was paper...I wounded it, though...right in the guts with my Spear.I did Bekkle, like you taught me,spitted it like a Boar.' Darryn lapses into unconciousness and Bekkle looks up at Remi and Telerin.'That thing is out there, Lads. I been a'huntin it fer a month now, but someone needs to guard Darryn and little Ellin here. I hate to say it, but I thinkI'd sow ye all down if'n I was ta go on. I'll take 'em into the Cellar, that should be the safest place, should the rmfene return. Remi, you and Telerin here, and Katherine should be able to find that Ormfene, and Lady Aranel has eyes sharp as daggers, especially in this here dim light. I reckon you ken find this Monster and kill it once and fer all. I have somethin' fer ye, too...'  Bekkle hands over the Vial to Telerin, saying 'This has three draughts left, made by the Druid of Arglynn Vale, a friend of mine. It'll pull ye back from Death's Door, it will. And take my arrows, Remi. I have little use fer em hidin in a cellar, though I'll keep one, in case the beast gets back here. I'd like ta put one in his eye before I go down his gullet.'<Telerin recieves a Potion of Cure Light Wounds 1D8+3, 3 Uses.Remi receives 6 +1 Arrows. Loaners, of course, but Bron's words suggest he'd just as soon have you use them up if it helps complete your Hunt.> While Remi and Telerin help Bron Bekkle with the wounded Darryn...outsideKatherine, her glowing Quarrel lighting the area in a suffused haze, moves towards the Barn, her eyes sharp for anything trying to get the 'Drop' on her.Aranel (having tied the Horses to the hitching post) stays close, not sure what Katherine was about, though not wanting to let her go it alone (or be left alone, for that matter).</blockquote>
