CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA Game (ToEE)

[Voadam]

Sir Merrick leads the way back to the iron stairs up, eyes wary for returning ghouls. "Keep your symbol ready prophet, the ghouls are still here somewhere."

 

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

Zirat

Zirat follows the rest, carrying his chain in one hand and Jinx's body in the other hand.
You will rest soon, good friend
He says quietly.

 

[Rhun]

You return to the shaft without event, and begin climbing the iron rungs upward. So far, you've yet to see or hear any pursuit from behind.

 

[Voadam]

Sir Merrick keeps the lead in the orderly withdrawal making steady progress up and out of the moathouse.

 

[Rhun]

All goes quietly and without incident. If the remnants of the bandits in the Moathouse have organized a pursuit, they have been delayed sufficiently to allow you to escape. You exit the ruins and find yourselves back on the trail to Hommlet in short order, with only the usual strange sounds of the bogs and fens to keep you company.

 

[Rhun]

OOC: Are you returning to Hommlet for the night?

 

[Rhun]

Your troop returns to Hommlet without further ado. The body of poor, deceased Jinx is left with Acolyte Calmer at the Church of St. Cuthbert, who promises to give the body honorable burial in the village's cemetary. You retire to the Welcome Wench for a meal and bit of rest. Although the place is lively this night, you all feel weighed down by the loss of your companion and the stresses of fighting the bandits.

Despite this, Ostler serves up a delicious meal of pheasant roasted in butter with spiced potatoes and fresh greens. The ale and wine flow freely, as you discuss your next moves...


OOC: Hey guys, I know that Voadam is away until Wednesday, and Strahd is gone until the 22nd or so...Dog Moon, Dichotomy, are you guys still with us? I'm not sure if Lord_Raven will be back either. I will NPC him temporarily. If he doesn't return, I'll probably have to recruit for a new arcane caster/psionic character.

 

[Dichotomy]

Aeron's dour mood from before did not seem to lessen even once the party began relaxing at the Welcome Wench.

"My friends, I am not sure how it is best to proceed. Our enemy knows we were there. They may even have a good enough description to recognize us. Clearly, they will react in some way. Do not do so would be foolish.

"I fear that we simply know too little. We do not know who they are or what their purpose is. Therefore we can barely even speculate as to what move they will next make.

"I am also greatly vexed by the loss of Jinx. I pray to the Shining One that we will not suffer such fate again. But there is a very real possibility that we are overmatched.

"At the least, however, I think we should inform local authorities about what we have found. Jebediah, you have a rapport with the local lords, do you not? Perhaps you could speak to them."

[sblock=OOC]Apologies for my delinquency. I'd actually forgotten that the others were gone, and, since Aeron had been deferring to Merrick's leadership, I was waiting for him.[/sblock]

 

[Rhun]

"Ah yes, indeed," responds Jebediah, looking up from his meal. "I shall endeaver to make that my first priority on the morn. I'm quite certain that Lords Burne and Rufus will be most curious as to the discoveries we have made thus far."
