[QUOTE="diaglo, post: 1289225, member: 2885"] [b]Some things are not as they seem[/b] A moment later, there was a light at the end of the tunnel. And then shouting in a foreign tongue. “Should we go investigate?” Fiddle asked. “It can never be good when someone is shouting like that even if it is in a different language.” “It’s elven,” Alya said as she strode past. “Could be the drow.” Fiddle quickly ducked in behind the avariel as a shadow. The others waited outside. They rounded the bend. Arendel was in elf form again held back at sword point by a wounded sun elf. The druid tucked his drow medallion under his armor. Fiddle recognized why the elf was nervous now. The three elves chatted away. He lowered his sword. Alya attempted to heal the elf’s wounds. Nothing visibly changed. “Hello,” Fiddle stepped into the light. “Can you speak in Common? I don’t understand a word you all are saying.” Darian and Sully arrived. Darian joined in on the conversation. Sully and Fiddle just shrugged. “Sully,” Alya whispered in draconic. “I don’t trust our friend. Would you be a dear and dispel the magic around here?” Finally, Fiddle got an idea something wasn’t kosher. Alya must have explained Sully’s actions. She nodded to the gnome. Ppooofff. All the magic in the area was removed. Alya was a male kobold again. This did not sit well with the elf. Darian placed himself in the middle of the negotiations. He directed everyone outside and even translated a little for Fiddle and Sully to understand. Calrom met the new elf, Grishelm of the Deepingdale Rangers, with a sneer. The two rangers kept their distance. Fiddle searched the human merchants. They were dead alright. And someone had already stripped them of their valuables. The conversation continued outside the tunnel. Calrom translated for the non-elves. The hawk was the elf's former companion. No one seemed to care they were just outside of a drow stronghold. "He is not to be trusted," Alya sang. The sun elf froze and stared at the kobold. Fiddle moved behind him. Calrom drew his sword. [/QUOTE]
