Clutches of Evil - IC: Chapter Two

[unleashed]

Keryth, Male Drakontos Cleric

“I’m sorry Byntrou, but I had to ask... my conscience wouldn’t allow me to do otherwise,” Keryth offers, in reply to Byntrou’s frown.

[SBLOCK=jkason]No problem, RP away. Your experimentation with Byntrou is giving me an opportunity to do a little of the same with Keryth too. [/SBLOCK]

Byntrou, roguishly sorcerous barbarian

“I’m sorry Byntrou, but I had to ask... my conscience wouldn’t allow me to do otherwise,” Keryth offers, in reply to Byntrou’s frown.

[SBLOCK=jkason]No problem, RP away. Your experimentation with Byntrou is giving me an opportunity to do a little of the same with Keryth too. [/SBLOCK]

Byntrou nods with resignation but gives no verbal response while the group is with the Pater. Instead, he responds to the Pater's suggestion.

"Well, yes, one of the disconcerting things about being in the company of shapeshifters is the nattering thought that there may be more than you thought."

 

[Nonlethal Force]

Byntrou, Keryth:

The pater nods. "Yes, well. I suppose that if I didn't trust you I could always use magic to prove you were who you say you are. But then again, why should I doubt? Heironeous has brought news of the priest's fate safely back to us, that is the primary concern. And if the shapeshifters are as benign as you say, they should not be a problem anyway."

Varius, Eion:

[Sblock=OOC]Eion NPCed yet again.[/Sblock]

Eion runs out of the barn with a few ropes used for hooking onto the horses' bridle and bringing them to the stable. He is largely unsuccessful.

In the meantime, Varius is able to carry Bellana's huasband to the farmhouse and find a soft couch to lay him on to recuperate. To Varius' assertion Bellana replies, "We have hands, but my guess is they were either overrun or ran away. Our hands are simply that. They care for the horses quite well. They are paid for their animal knowledge and their ability to tote hay back and forth. Most of them don't exactly have the honest training at swordplay."

After the several minutes that pass by during the process of carrying Bellana's husband to a more secure location, Varius is then able to step out of the farmhouse and see Eion's struggle in the fields. It would seem like the horses will only let him get within twenty feet of him before they bolt to a more safe distance. Bellana stayed inside with her husband.

Varius calls out to Eion.
"Hey I thought all you elves were good with animals."

Varius heads into the corral and takes the leads from Eion and gathers two horses.

Keryth nods, “A wise conclusion, indeed. So, how is Caris doing, if I may ask?”

 

[Rino]

Varius calls out to Eion.
"Hey I thought all you elves were good with animals."

Varius heads into the corral and takes the leads from Eion and gathers two horses.

I might be an elf but that doesn't make an animal handler, I can ride a horse and I can kill a horse. gentle catch one is not one of my best sides. while Varius is doing his best to gather the horses.

 

[Nonlethal Force]

Keryth, Byntrou:

"All things considered, so far so good. There were a couple of touch and go days, but Heironeous may have something special for us yet."

Eion, Varius:

Varius s able to immediately corral a single horse, and after handing the horse off to Varius in order to corral another it takes several attempts to get a second one. 5 minutes pass by before Varius is able to corral a second horse.

Keryth, Male Drakontos Cleric

“Ah, good. Well, we will leave you to your devotions then, and hope for your continued success with the charge we’ve left in your care.”

Ooc

[sblock=OOC]Did we get paid for this mission fully beforehand? I can't seem to recall, though I suspect Byntrou, selfish that he is, wouldn't lose track of something like that. [/sblock]

"Alright Eion, they have a bit of a lead, but we'll be mounted, can you follow the trail? If so lead on".
