Freeport- Part 1: the Problem with Crematoriums

Fentrith, involving himself with poking holes in the corpse of the shark-thing, doesn't catch the first few bits of conversation. "Huh? Did I miss something? 'Cause I just kind of thought that maybe they weren't really running from guys right on their tales, y'know? Maybe more like refugees. I don't think any more of the creatures will be coming tonight." Fentrith bends down, cleans his sword, and then sheathes it.

Popping open a flask of liquor, he indulges in a long drink, spilling a few small splashes on the ground in sacrifice to Harrimast. "So, friend," he says, staring at Villard, "what do you want to do with your dead friend there."

What the h*ll, this is no time to be drunk. Villard look in the direction of the cleric with a look that clearly demonstrate his taught.
"Now is not the time" and turns back to the others to prepare the defensive plan.

"You're right, Villard. Let's first make sure none of us joins her." Torren retrieves one of the fallen sunrods and his leather bag as Captain Drac re-settles on his shoulder. "Let's get to that tower and set up some defenses. Once we've done that, if nothing has happened, perhaps we can sortie out to explore some more. Does anyone have a length of rope with them?"

"Fentrith, the crone said they would be coming again tonight. She may have been lying, but I'm not betting my life on it. So who is going to stay down here with me, and how are we going to block the back door?"

"Nobody stays here," Torren states flatly. "We all go to the bell tower and decide if its defensible. We make any preparations we can think of, then we can come back if we want to. Agreed?"

"My idea was to keep them from getting into the building at all. Block the doors, and put archers in the tower. I'm betting fishmen can't climb well. You think we should all hide out in the tower?"

"I agree, they should not even enter the building and the melee fighter would be more useful blocking the doors than looking at us firing arrow." "The problem" looking at Zoraster "is that I wonder if you will be able to hold very long if they reach the building, these things seem to be pretty nasty"
 

As you talk Zoraster spoiler
You slowly feel your strength returning... hench it is coming back 1 point a minute

The rain and wind pick up a bit outside and the thunder gets a bit closer. Otherwise the building is silent...
 

Kitsch signs in a flurry ~i'll take position in the tower, the swordsmen can take position down here and help board up, but if it comes to fighting to the last or retreating, retreat up to the bell tower. We'll have an advantage fighting anything trying to climb the stairs up.~ Taking a quick look around for anything that might be useful to have in the bell tower (lamps with oil still in them, an iron pot). ~we should take anything up to the bell tower to drop on anything that tries to make it's way up~

Torren shakes his head. "I don't know. There are at least four entrances into this building and only, what, five of us? Seems like a good way to get surrounded. If we all hole up in the tower we can run them through a bottleneck. Maybe even lay a trap or two. I've got some thunderstones we can drop on them as they come up the stairs and Kitsch might have some more acid." He looks at the Filcher. "Do you have any of that liquid fire we made last week? I didn't bring any."
