CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk ALPHA Game (ToEE)

[Rhun]

You retrace your steps through the chamber to the east, and then up the corridor to the northern chamber where you faced the elite earth guardians in their bronzed plate armor. No bodies remain, though the signs of battle are still evident: blood stains, furniture tipped over, bits of torn armor, a broken weapon or two. For the most part, it looks like these areas have been abandoned by the forces of the Earth Temple.

Verdis

"Looks like we ran them out of here, or maybe they decided to move to better digs in some other area we cleared. Perhaps we are perceived as some sort Dungeon renewal service." His lame humor seems to be an attempt to cover his nervousness at the site of the blood of his friends. "Which way now? I fear we may need to explore other areas we've visited before to make sure they aren't home to new enemies." He holds on tightly to his crossbow.

"If I might suggest......if I were guarding this temple, then I would anticipate precisely what Verdis suggests. What I would not necessarily expect would be a new assault in an entirely new area. So I must say that in my opinion it would be a mistake to go back over the areas that you have already explored and waste time, and possibly effort and blood, fighting to gain the same territory twice. Of course, those rooms may still be unoccupied, in which case the only thing that we would lose by re-visiting them would be time....."

 

[Rhun]

Ragnok tugs at his beard as he ponders. "There be many possible reasons these rooms be left untended. Per'aps our foes 'ave simply pulled back there defensive lines, strengthening their position by 'olding less ground."

 

[Legildur]

Kurt agrees with the dwarf. "Aye, that would seem the more likely."

 

[Leif]

Trevor

"Very well then, it was just an option. It has been overcome by logic, so we re-trace our steps! Lead on!"

 

[Rhun]

Where to?

 

[Leif]

Trevor Champlaign

"It's your call, Coraine, where to next?"

 

[Rhun]

Ragnok grumbles under his breath, and then points his axe back to the west. "That way," he says, leading the way back to the other door.

Verdis turns to watch the open hallway while the others take the door. He holds his crossbow ready trying to stay calm and focused.
