[Adventure] The Paper Chase, Part 2 (Judge: renau1g)

[Luinnar]

He leans in close and begins to whisper, "How do you know that name?" he asks.

Because, we are here to find him. Mythra says, annoyed. Since you know him let us know where we can find him and we can get out of your way. he says, thinking how much easier this whole affair if Derslin is dead, and not, say, master of an undead horde.

Well good news, bad news time. The good news, my twins are feeling better, bad news, the 3 month old and my wife are both now sick.

At least work should slow down next week.

OOC: Sorry others are sick I hope they feel better soon.

"Good news for you I surmise, that is me. Gellar is my cousin's name, but I didn't want anyone knowing who I was out here, hence the Gellar. So, what are you looking for with me?" the man asks.

"Good news for you I surmise, that is me. Gellar is my cousin's name, but I didn't want anyone knowing who I was out here, hence the Gellar. So, what are you looking for with me?" the man asks.

Professor Farrow wanted to know where you were. We will head back and tell him you are here and collect our reward... Mythra says, heading for the door. The last thing he wanted to do is get stuck on another quest or adventure.

OOC: Note: I'm not saying I don't want to continue, but Mythra will be Mythra.

 

[renau1g]

"Wait! You can't just leave like that. I'm so relieved that my missive arrived to his hands, you wouldn't believe the bureaucracy there and how easy it is for things to get lost. Oh, sorry I am nervous and prattling on like an old ninny. Ok, so Professor Farrow sent you? I'm sure he'd want you to help out and keep his old friend safe. I will ensure you are compensated of course. The value of our work here would easily justify a reward if you help us." Derslin says, sounding almost frantic as Mythra goes to leave.

 

[KarinsDad]

"Why don't you start by giving us a detailed explanation of the work you are doing here and the recent attack that occurred here?"

 

[Voda Vosa]

"Aye, some background information would be nice mate" The until now silent dwarf adds.

 

[Luinnar]

Fine...speak! Mythra snaps turning on the spot.

 

[MetaVoid]

OOC: I'm following, Orsik just has nothing to say. You know the old adage: better to be silent and thought the fool then to speak and remove any doubt!

"Very well, sit down if you'd like, the tale is somewhat long I'm afraid. As you may have noticed we're conducing a fairly extensive dig of the area, my investigations have led me to this location. My partners and I came here, they to provide security while we uncovered the site. They were from Darguun, goblins and hobgoblins who aided me because we were expecting to unearth substantial remains of an ancient Dhakaani city. We were beginning to make progress. After the goblinoids sent some of our findings back to Darguun they heard back and whatever it was they all just abandoned us here. Their presence kept back any from bothering us, but with them gone we've been suffering nightly attacks from some...things that dwell in the forest. They may be humans, or something else, we've not gotten a good look at them. They launch a series of attacks that seem about to overwhelm our rather meager defensive lines, but then they pull back. The morale of the men is abysmal. They are close to giving up, but we are so close to success here, I can feel it. We could surely use your help, if you could help bolster the line and the men, maybe some of you have knowledge of static defenses I don't know, but regardless if you stay I can grant some of the artifacts we found in ruins that may be of use to you. What do you say?" Derslin says

The dwarf punches his breast proudly. "Notin' da' I enjoy more den a good fight! I might know close to notin' bout tactics, but I usually won battles anyway. It's di way o' me people." he remarks. "And 'f der's some shinies at di end o' the battle, it makes it more interestin'! Hah!""
