Forgotten Heroes IC

Chester looks around at the other silently and ponders his new memories. It tells him no more about who he is, or his history, but it's a start at least.

"I guess that answers the question of whether we have enemies or not."

Lily coughs and doubles over for a moment, then manages to straighten back up, leaning against a nearby wall. "And that's how we escaped...got away into the field," she manages. She wipes her mouth on her sleeve. "And he called us 'the Ungotu.' Just like that 'aspect' or whatever it was did."


"No." Voadam shakes his head. "That is not quite my memory of it. Nass said the Ungotu were the only thing standing between him and conquering the world. Though we were bound prisoners I do not think he was referring to us but just to 'the Ungotu'. It is possible his plans require our sacrifices and he might attempt to recapture us or others for use in his rituals, but I am sure his plans require the removal of the Ungotu."

He turns to the red wizard. "Thank you Fonthane, this added a few more important pieces to the puzzle I'm working on. We need to alert the city of Balstion that Demmin Nass will be attempting to destroy the ten magical posts around the city.

"He might come himself. He might send in the Mandin Bandits and the Aspect of Xiphid, though I believe he has them working on other plans. He might send in unique undead minions or he might hire third parties to do it for him. I think powerful individual undead minions would be his most likely tool though, but whatever agents he chooses, his assault will be coming."

"It is important for us to know about Xiphid so I still plan for us to journey to the swamps. I really need to learn draconic one day, it would be helpful in dealing with the lizardmen. After we meet these lizardmen tests and see what we can learn from them we will head to Balstion to learn about the old magic of their Ungotu."


"Fonthane, if you could alert the City rulers to the danger and arrange for me to be granted access to the Ungotu when I return from the swamps that would be most helpful. Also if there is anything you can tell us about the lizardman tests it would be good for us to walk in prepared."

Voadam turns to his companions. "How many of you speak draconic?"

The big goliath ponders for a moment. "I do speak the language of my people as well as dwarven and terran, but I do not remember every learning draconic."
 


"To tell the truth, i do not remember what languages i speak. Perhaps you could try a few and we'll see if i can understand you?" Zzerki will ask the group
 

Chester answers Voadam's question without thinking.

"I can."

Then he pauses and scratches his head as he ponders his own answer. He doesn't remember ever studying it, but he does seem to know it. And a few other languages seem to be floating around his head as well.

Finally he shrugs and turns to Zzerki and fires off a few words in a sibilant tongue.

[sblock=Draconic]
"I suppose if you can understand this, then you speak it too."

Seifer shakes his head at the unfamiliar tongue.

"I'm sorry. I do not know this language."

He turns to the group.

"Please tell me of your visions. It seems to have pushed some of you to action. I saw was a beautiful woman and a young boy in a field near a place that felt like home. While it saddens my heart not to be at this place, it gave me little information to proceed. What have you seen? What must we do?"
 

"I heard some voice saying that only the Ungotu stood in his way now, or something like that," Lily reports. "Then I saw us in some kind of prison, plotting to escape. Then I saw us fleeing, running, and the last thing I saw was the field we woke up in."
