The gash suddenly knits together.. and then when she passes her hand over, it is completely healed. Kytheria heals <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=142214" target="_blank">10 points of Arvin's damage</a>. He's completely healed.Alek and Bahuman are able to ascertain that the troll is most sincerely dead. And Osbry assures Alek that they won't need any proof of it's death for the bounty. Osbry is a founder and his word is enough. Alek asks "Heck of a swing you've got on that greataxe Bahuma, glad I'm on this end of that weapon. So Osbry, what was so special about the helm, or should I say about the weilder, this Korin?"Osbry chuckles. "He was a hero, well, if you believe the legends. Theyre before my time. Before any of the founders. He was tasked by the gods to rescue a divine child and he did. He even slew the famous Queen of the Witches. I'll show you some books about it. It was about 2 centuries ago- Planar time, mind-you. The helm was a gift from the bird-goddess Finch. It is a rare and powerful item."(OOC: Unless anyone has any objections we'll move on to the next scene and you can all decide what you'd like to do. )Your group moves on, heading back towards home. Alek makes sure not to catch any burrs or pollen on the way back. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> THE SCENE HAS CHANGED: After walking for another hour or so, you reach the trail that leads to the school grounds. You stop by the Planar Gardens- a walled fairly private area bounded on all sides by beautiful abstract statues that are meant to represent the cardinal elements in form- a twisting crystal spiral for air, a spiking flameshaped red and black arc for fire, the polished form of brown and green agate boulders which look like theyve been stacked at an impossible angle for earth, and a graceful blue and white wave-looking piece for water. A variety of strange orchids and multi-colored ferns are arranged beautifully within. A path made up of beautifully polished cream and peach-colored mosaic tiles winds it's way through. One of the school gardening constructs (these are quite common and referred to by students as a 'headless' because they look like a muscular silvery humanoid without a head) is tending a set of hedges with a pair of clippers. Osbry sits down at a pleasant curved iron garden bench in the center. There's room for you all and more. "Ok, glad your'e all on board. We'll be meeting two more students, I hope."He checks the sundial. "Ah, here they are."(OOC: ATTENTION ARGENT and LOBO-LURKER, your characters approach and are here. Feel free to introduce yourselves.)"This is not a mandatory assignment in any way, so if you would rather not be part of this. Please say so."(OOC: seriously, I'm not trying to railroad you and if anyone is looking for a way out of this PbP, just say! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> ) "Alright.. now then. The Helm of Korin. It is a valuable relic, and until this year it has been the subject of our relic-studies program at Honeymarsh. But it was stolen by a group of students last year. As I said- we have already punished some of the students that were involved in the theft. But they were for the most part- followers. The two ringleaders are still at large, and the crown itself has likely been sold to a buyer. We have some idea who that buyer might be.""But first, our new students."</blockquote>
