Message: <blockquote data-quote="unleashed" data-source="post: 2635604" data-attributes="member: 31408">Orin Heartwood, Male Half-Elf RangerDamien and Verbatim[SBLOCK]Orin starts to relate his tale as they walk, in an almost workmanlike fashion, but omits the names of his new companions other than Damien.“Well I can start but Damien will have to finish, as I wasn’t in the best of condition towards the end with the dire rats. I was walking the hills near the abandoned mining office when the storm approached, after finishing early with Venelle, so headed there for shelter. Upon my arrival I found stirges attacking a man by the door, I shot one dead pinning it to the door while he took down the other two with his spear.”“Thinking the office empty we tried to enter, but found goblins within...four if I recall correctly...we then fought those. They took down the priest with thrown spears after he dropped the first at the door, I managed to take down two more one with the bow and another with the blade. Bandaging the priest as best I could I dragged him within the building with the last goblin cowering in the corner I was about to let it leave so as not to endanger the priest further, when another man I had spotted earlier moving quietly around the outside of the office decided to enter and squewered the last with his rapier.”“Then a guardsman arrived. He aided the us in entering the foreman’s office where we found another five goblins holed up, one of which was a spellcaster. I fired at it first, but missed for the first time in the day, it then cast a spell which dropped the rapier wielder. The guardsman stood strong and offered them quarter if they surrendered then batted at them with the flat of his longsword, the only thing I could think he was doing was to try and take prisoners. On my second shot though the spellcaster was not so lucky and it died with an arrow in its chest. The goblins then wounded the guardsman quite seriously, but amazingly the priest who I though was near death had risen and was tending to the fallen. I managed to drop another with an arrow in its chest before the melee precluded me from getting another clear shot.”“Having finished those off, a wet young man arrived, followed shortly thereafter by Damien here. Having found earlier that the goblins had locked two angry badgers in the kitchen before we arrived, we assisted their release by making a run from their prison to the front door. They left with little fuss and no additional harm then what the goblins may have inflicted.”“Then myself and one other entered the cellar where we found the dire rats, they were very hungry and jumped us almost immediately, taking both myself and the other man down. That is all I can impart up until I regained consciousness where we discovered the ratlings and the collapsed hole which had allowed the rats entrance, but not egress. That is my tale before we came to you here.”[/SBLOCK]</blockquote>
