[dead_radish]

OOC: What would be the chances that Elone could fake naseau, and then force herself to vomit?

Meanwhile at the inn....

You hear a oud voice say in Common:

"You are completely surrounded and outnumbered. Lay down your weapons and walk onto the roof one by one with your hands up."

Peeking down, you see that Luskanite Guardsmen and some of Storm's soldiers are surrounding the building. There seem to be quite a lot of them.

OOC: Damn.

Elone bows her head, reaching deep inside her, and deep beyond herself to Solonor, her guardian throughout all of her life. She whispers quietly, and fervently, "Solonor, protect now your servant, and her allies, that we may do your will. Bless and purify this food, to keep our minds and souls clear."

OOC: She'll also attempt to channel positive energy into the food, if possible.

Elone has nothing on her except clothes. Now that she has thought to examine them, she notices that they aren't even hers, and are in fact a bit too cityish for her tastes.

There is no one to hear her thought broadcast.

Meanwhile in the inn...

The door to the safe gets red hot. The metal gearworks melt and the bolts become as soft as butter. You see little sparking explosions as magical traps and glyphs are destroyed. You see Calain has returned to the doorway. The safe creeps open. He says "Oh, come on. That one was easy, no? You'd beter loot that safe and get out of here. Something very, very, big is coming. He disappears in a flash of fire.

The safe is full of gold bars, theiving equiptment of all sorts, and assorted magical items that will take a long time to identify.

Kelnar quickly scoops things into his extradimensional holding space (bag) and begin to make plans for a quick escape. He casts improved Invisibility on himself and casts a major image of the party doing just as the guard says while the group sneaks out the other way.

Kelnar see that solders surround the inn entirely, and all of the enternces are heavily-guarded There must be a way through them.


Hey, reaper, where are ya'?

OOC: Damn.

Elone bows her head, reaching deep inside her, and deep beyond herself to Solonor, her guardian throughout all of her life.

OOC: She'll also attempt to channel positive energy into the food, if possible.

Channeling energy into the food wont do anything...except possibly make it hotter, or if she does it long enough, turn it into an animated object.

They eat. Rana's eyes begin to slightly glow, and she puts one hand on Elone's arm. Elone feels that her connection to Solonor is greatly strengthened. Many of her daily spells appear in her mind.

The food, however, clearly was not purified. After a few minutes, Elone can barely think streight as she is overwhemed by waves of giddiness and drowsiness. Whats left of her connection collapses as Rana passes out. Elone and Jaina forget their predicament and palse into drunken small talk for a while. Elone hears fighting outside and sees several men enter the room, and shortly after she suddenly finds herself laying in a tent in a military encampment in the High Forest, not feeling any better, though. Her commander and a man who she does not recognize, but who bears the seal of Queen Amruil of Evermeet, are kneeling over her.

"How are you feeling? They really beat you up good...How did you wind up in Gond's Dungeon in Luskan, Elone? Weren't you just going on simple patrol?

 

[dead_radish]

Elone looks around, seeking any of her former companions, and laughs harshly.

"That was the plan, but Solonor saw fit to do things differently."

She pauses, and considers. "And I hope you won't take this personally, Telan, but I really would rather not tell you any more until I have a chance to rest a bit, and pray. I've been deceived a lot lately, and drugged as well. I need some time to clear my head."

"I am so sorry to have to put you throught this, but there isn't time. We haven't been able to find the other who raided the inn, and your cellmates have yet to wake up. The invasion is imminent. We must know what of value was accomplished or discovered."

 

[dead_radish]

Elone smiles. "The invasion has been imminent for years. If it is happening tomorrow, there is nothing I could tell you that would make a difference. If it is happening later, then I will wait a day to speak with you."
