[QUOTE="diaglo, post: 880083, member: 2885"] [b]Toll road[/b] "Let us break camp," Darian suggested. "This place is too close to a new passageway to the Underdark." Darian and Richter said a quick prayer over the slain. In the dark the party stumbled a mile or two closer to their goal of reaching Cormyr. Vlad and Fiddle took their turn on watch followed by Darian. The next two days were uneventful. On the middle of the third day a band of humanoids blocked their path. Erin and Vlad continued ahead. The rest of the party began to wonder about an ambush. Fiddle dismounted and hid behind the mount he and Sully shared. After a few moments and muffled discussion, Erin returned. Vlad had a sour look on his face but he remained with the patrol. "These fellows guard the road and keep it safe for our passage," Erin said. "They, however, require a toll to keep up their vigil. I have agreed to collect it." "How much?" Darian asked. "Ten gold talents per individual and 5 silver markers per mount," Erin answered. "That's not much," Darian misheard and therefore misunderstood. "Here, here is my 10 silver." His jaw dropped when Erin repeated the price. He did however pay it. As did everyone else. Though, Vlad having just come from fighting in Damaara threw his coins at the orcs' feet. Yes, the tollkeepers were orcs of the Eye Clan. There were only 5 of them visible on the road. Though, the nearby cover on both sides of the road could hide many more. Out of earshot and passed the toll, Vlad let out his frustration at the sky. "Orcs, they were orcs. We should've killed every last one of them. I just spent 5 years hunting those apricots (Turkish for something unpleasant)." The party travelled and camped. True to their word obviously, the party experienced no trouble that night. The next day would see the party at the Gap to the Thunder Peaks and the border of Cormyr. [/QUOTE]
