CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA Game (ToEE)

[Dire Lemming]

Content with the hiding place, Shoon looks to the others. "Alright. Now that we have found a secure place for our belonging that we will be unable to bring with us. I think that we should decide on how to approach the temple. Most likely it will be safer to approach directly from here than it would be to return to the road and follow that. If they are to set up an ambush the road would be the best spot. Either way we must hurry. We must find the prisoners!" Shoon seems a little overexcited for going to rescue a person he's never met.

Ciaran dismounts and tells Encraidd, "Guard this caravan. Guard your brethren. We will return." Encraidd snorts.

Ciaran turns to Shoon. "If the path is the fastest way to the temple, we should take the path. If we are ambushed, we will find people we can interrogate. We need forward scouts--I can send Galliard with you or Deren. If you are ambushed, I will know."

 

[Dichotomy]

Aeron seems to carefully weigh both prior suggestions. "Earlier I might have agreed with you, Ciaran. A failed ambush by the temple guardians would certainly provide us with prisoners to question. However, I must disagree now. First, our inquisitor is the one we are lacking. Second, we have already miscalculated and underestimated out enemy. It would seem as if intentionally walking into an ambush, assuming that we will easily foil it, also relies upon underestimating our enemy."

Aeron shakes his head. "In short, we faired ill on our last attempt. Let us not, through pride, make the same mistakes." The cleric looks to see how the others fall.

"There is no doubt about their advantage here. We do not know when or where allong the path they might set up an ambush. If we stay off the path, but not too far from it, we may catch the ambushers unawares. Then we will have the advantage."

We can pay a visit to the tower again, to see if anyone is in there ...
The champion suggest.
we did found a secret door down there, if the bandits are waiting to ambush us we could trick them and come from another route

 

[Dire Lemming]

"I am not worried about bandits. They were just hired by the cultists to help conceal their actions, and they have fled now. In any case I think it is fairly certain that that passage led to the cottage which we found deserted in the woods, the leader came there through the passage and warned his subordinates there of us, then they fled together. Still, it would not hurt to explore a short way down that passage and see if it also leads into the temple. No matter what we do though we must get to the temple before we do it, as well as dealing with any ambushes they might have set for us before we get there. Let us continue." Shoon starts walking generally towards the temple, but parallel to the path they were following with the wagon.

 

[Rhun]

Picking a path through the dense foliage that parallels the rutted trail, you soon enough find yourselves standing at the edge of the great clearing that contains the foul edifice to elemental evil. The place looks much the same as it did the last time you were here.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Shoon looks around cautiously. Concerned about the lack of opposition. He continues surveying the area as he moves slowly towards the tower that once held the bandit garrison.

Zirat

No matter how quiet this place is, something gives me the creep.
The champion scan the surrounding, feeling eyes watching at him … or is it the temple.
The evil aura troubles him so he readies his chain

 

[InVinoVeritas]

"We know not if anyone waits for us here. If they are smart, they are ready. They are smart."

He thinks a moment. "We know of multiple ways in. There is the ladder and well at the cottage. There is the guardhouse tower. And there are the main side doors. If we could just control one of these entry points, we would rest easier. Where are we best suited to control?"
