Darkness Under Cold Stones

[Scotley]

Kragor

Kragor busies himself with the unloading, the mood of the crowd weighs heavily on him. He is eager to get back to the rest of the food and to try and save the elves.

Ivan nods at Shoon's comments.

"We only returned to deliver what food we could. Hopefully it will be enough to avert disaster while we go in search of what remains. Our time is short."

 

[Rhun]

"Indeed, our time is short, but such are the ways of winter. The hobgoblins have not had time to use up much of the supplies, so it stands to reason that they are stored in their base. The spirits shall lead us, and hopefully, we can take them by surprise."

Kragor Human Duskblade

Kragor looks to his companions, "I am fit and ready to return. What of the rest of you? Are you all able to continue the fight or should beg the further services of the healer before we set off?"

 

[Rhun]

"I am uninjured, and ready to proceed, though I have used some the power that the spirits grant to me each day. Still, I am prepared to continue.

 

[Land Outcast]

Seeing Thoma sheathe his bloody sword, remaining beside the hobgoblin in guard over it, Danya says "You might be uninjured Balund, but your companion has more than a scratch... If what you are saying is correct, you must move immediately as you say" While saying this, she approaches with you to the empty wagon and the silent hobgoblin, applying her hand to Thoma's great wound from one the hobgoblins' sword, a flame surges all of a sudden cleaning much of the orc's body.

"I don't know how strong the number of goblinoids might be, but I'm not sure if you are wise in going against them, even with Ivan carrying the flame by your side" There is genuine concern here, and Ivan notices how her attitude is not the normal one of a Sister of the Flame, much less of Danya Firehair... the cold hits suffered by the town have made their mark on her also.

"Maybe we will now be able to stand through a pair of weeks or so... why would anyone set a town in a place of such cruel winter?... Nevermind, both you, Kragor and Shoon, have repaid your debt... maybe now I can try and rally some of the villagers for dealing with the hobgoblins..." She seems to have gained back the years she didn't show before, the situation obviously has troubled her deeply.

[sblock=Balund]You see, as she speaks, how she grows faint and ashen... and see a great ominous bird, grey as doubt, perched on her shoulder[/sblock]
OOC: Thoma is cured 15hp, still has 3 points of damage

 

[hafrogman]

Ivan shakes his head.

"We cannot give up now Danya! We know where the food is, and there are people being held with it. They cannot last a few more weeks! And the villagers are good people, but not warriors. I cannot say who founded this town, or why they chose this spot, but it is our home. We cannot simply give up on it. To lose hope is to die."

 

[Voadam]

Thoma's eyes widen at the flames licking over him then flashes his tusks in thanks for the healing. At her words that it is not wise to continue on he looks over the villagers, scowls and says "Pfah! Balund say we go, we go." Thoma looks at the hobgoblin. "He drive wagon, tell of food. Thoma no kill now. Thoma give to flame woman." The orc shakes his head, cricks his neck from side to side and says "Thoma ready go now."

 

[Dire Lemming]

"Lady Danya, I do not feel I have repaid my debt to you. I must make sure that the food is recovered. Besides, I connat leave until Sion recovers... Uh, how is she?"

 

[Scotley]

Kragor

"I thank you for freeing me of further debt Danya, but I would not abandon the people here to starvation or worse at the hands of the hobgobins if there is a chance I can help. I am prepared to survey this cave and see if their is ought we can do against the hobgoblins."
