CLOSED! Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA Game (ToEE)

Zert continues to claim that he knows nothing about the Temple, in between a steady stream of swearing and cursing at you, but Jebediah can easily tell that the man is lying.


About a half hour later a group of eight men-at-arms, led by Captain Rufus, appear and offer up the proper password. They quickly take Zert into custody, binding him securely, and tell you that he will be held at Burne's tower for later interrogation.

Sir Merrick nods at the men at arms as he hands off the prisoner then retrieves his glaive and leads the way back to the moathouse.

About a half hour later a group of eight men-at-arms, led by Captain Rufus, appear and offer up the proper password. They quickly take Zert into custody, binding him securely, and tell you that he will be held at Burne's tower for later interrogation.
Greeting the Captain warmly Jebediah gladly hands over the bound Zert, once the guards are gone he turns to his companions "When we get back to town I'll make it known that Zert fell heroically in the line of duty protecting me, if there are any other agents in town, they'll most likely believe that we killed him and come seeking revenge a sudden look of alarm crosses his face.

"That reminds me, I'd better check with Lord Burne about speaking with all of his staff, the last thing we need is a spy in their midst"

Seeing Sir Merrick head off in the direction of the Moathouse Jebediah follows along with the others "This isn't exactly my forte, but shouldn't we be using a scout to ensure we don't get ambushed."

OOC: Rhun what equipment did we find on Zert when we searched him?
 

It takes you less than another hour to reach the moathouse from the point that you waylaid Zert. All appears to be as you left it yesterday, at least from your vantage point down the road. A strong breeze blows today, carrying with it more of the strange birdcalls and eerie croaking sounds that you had heard the first time you ventured this way.

OOC: Your group has stopped at the same position you first surveyed the moathouse from during your first visit. There doesn't appear to be any sign of guards.

Zert’s Gear
Scale Mail
Large shield
Longsword
2 Daggers
Light Mace
Backpack with typical adventuring gear
Miscellaneous clothing
20 gp

Aeron looks at the group with him. "Well, it seems incredibly unlikely that our prior foray here went unnoticed. To whatever extent possible, I think we should send in a scout. Are any of you up for that?"

From the expression on the cleric's face, it seems likely that he is recalling yesterday's experience without delight.
 

Jinx scrunches up his face at Aeron's words. "Stealth isn't exactly my thing. And, I don't like the thought of going into that place alone."
 

Deren glances at the others and then at Jinx. "No," he says, "I'm the most stealthy among us, so I guess if we want to send in a scout, that would be me."
 


Deren frowns at the comment. He stops and takes a deep breath. "Well, I guess I'll go in. Just...try not to be far away if I need help, okay?"

OOC: Hide +12, Move Silently +11. Deren will go to the hole on the west side of the fort and hug the wall inside as he closes in on the doorway.
 

As Deren leaves to scout the moathouse, the rest of the group crouches in the concealment provided by tress and overgrowth, watching as their companions moves away from them.

Deren crosses the narrowest portion of the dirty, muck-choked moat and climbs through the rubble that was once part of the moathouse' western wall. Keeping in the shadows of the wall to the north, and trying his best to stay hidden behind the various chunks and piles of debris that litter the courtyard, the halfling makes his way toward the steps leading to the interior building.

Climbing a couple of steps to give himself a view into what was once the greatchamber (where you fought the bandits the previous day), Deren pauses to survey the scene before him.


Deren:

All looks to be as you left it within the chamber ahead. The room appears to be empty, besides the rubble, debris and the blood still staining the floor from your previous battle.

Despite the emptyness, Deren has the odd feeling that someone or something is watching him.

OOC: Deren is at L14 on the map.
