Adventure : Humanitas Severe

[ScorpiusRisk]

"Want?" the creature responds confused and cocks its head to the left, then down. "No. I do not quantify in that way. I want. I and want. They and want. Need." A brief pause.

"Need. We need to get moving as soon as we feel we can do so safely. We should take the fight to the hunters. I can already feel my powers waning."

Haruka looks over her shoulder at Max, "Near as I can tell, the power that brought us here in the first place is now possessing Raiko." She turns back to the paladin, "Well, your will may be ready to go, but that body is about to collapse. As are all of ours. So first, a rest, and then we can chase the hunters to their holes."

Max shakes his head "This place gives me the creeps...Yeah, the quicker we get ready to launch a counter attack, the better. They probably won't be expecting that. And damnit, I want another crack at those archers!...PAYBACK!"

 

[ScorpiusRisk]

The creature tilts its head at the back and forth between the two. "It is needed to attack while we have an open opportunity. It is the only way to cease the assault."

He then moves back toward the fort, to check on people's health.

Haruka watches as the being walks away. "I really hate the Feywild," she mutters. Shaking her head she turns towards Ashir, "There was something you wanted to talk about?" Only the slightest inflection at the end marks this as a question rather than a statement.

[sblock=ooc]During the rest Haruka will spend 3 surges, bringing her up to 47/51 hp and down to 6/10 surges.[/sblock]

Max looks at the creature. "Rigggghhhhttt...whatever you say big guy...big bird..." He laughs at his own joke and then follows the being formerly known as Raiko to the stronghold.

"Err...what?" Ashir says at Raiko's transformation, himself left speechless at the incident.

At Haruka's question, he replies, "I'm sure there was something, but I can't quite remember it, besides we've probably got more important things to worry about right now."

"Gather round right before we leave, and I will balance our reserves. Then I shall lead the way to the fey." Raiko says before continuing into the fort.

[sblock=ooc]I will cast Comrade's Succor. People will be able to donate surges to others. It will cost Raiko one surge. With out Lay on Hands, I really don't need more than 2 though, so that leaves two for others.[/sblock]

[Mal Malenkirk]

A few villagers leave the fort, led by Tevense and Neha. They look in awe at Raiko.

-''Is that... Is that you. I mean, the one that comes in dream?'' asks Neha, tentatively.

They seem to have fared well, only one of the men manning the ballistas having been killed in the fight.

 

[renau1g]

"Wait, we're going to them? Don't we want to fight from behind the wall?" Ashir asks, confused by the sudden change in tactics.
