[IC] The Trouble at Durbenford

[Vigwyn the Unruly]

Padraig, Male Human Fighter

Padraig thanks the deva for her offer. "Your offer is quite gracious, and we thank you kindly for allowing us to remain here until we straighten out our misunderstanding. Your healing of our friend Gil demonstrates to us your goodwill. We hope that you will also see in us that our motivations are pure. We are simply trying to do what good in this world that we may..."

After Konstantine speaks with the angel again, Padraig whispers to him. "While I heartily agree that exploring more of the forechambers is a capital idea, I must warn you that I am in no condition to do so at the present. It is lucky that I walk, quite frankly. My battered and broken body is resistent to our healing magic--no doubt the result of some evil in the statue's attacks. It seems my only chance at healing is to wait until the angel can remove my curse the way she did for Gil, and according to her that will be tomorrow at the earliest. Perhaps we should simply rest here for the night. I think we are relatively protected here in this chamber...though we should keep a watch, just in case the angel turns on us in the night."

"I agree with Padraig," Gil whispers, having eavesdropped a bit on his conversation with Konstantine. "It's been tough going for us these past few days, and we're really in no rush, are we?"

Gil patiently waits for Jasper to use Konstantine's wand on him. "Since you're offering..."

 

[TiCaudata]

Jasper cures what he can of Gil's wounds with the wand. "Much of my spells have been exhausted in my attempts to heal Gil. While I still have some left, resting a night might be a more prudent option."

 

[Dichotomy]

"Well, that seems like a quorum to me," Konstantine says approvingly. The bard proceeds to help whoever needs it get some semblance of camp prepared. He hums melodically the entire time. After such work is done, he converses politely with everyone and attempts to raise the mood of the group with some music.

The party makes camp and rests in the secure chamber, under the watchful eye of the Deva. Konstantine's conversation with her is relatively uninteresting, as it seems it has been her sole duty to protect this entrance against evil for thousands of years. She knows very little about the rest of the complex, but does confirm that somewhere within is the Nanoc.

As morning comes, the angel gladly cures the cursed wounds of Padraig.

The cathedral-like chamber is quiet in the morning, and if you peak outside you see that it is a clear, calm, though cold, day.

[sblock=ooc]9 charges to heal Gil to 2hp damage (which will be healed by rest).

If Padraig is also healed: 8 charges. Amazing rolls there.

As Ruathen rolls up and stows his blanket, he periodically glances toward the entrance to the eastern chamber, wary of what may lie that way, but well aware that the party's mission won't be resolved by staying put.

 

[Lazlow]

Gil helps break camp. "Ah, feeling much better today, thanks to all of you. I'm eager to see what these caverns hold."

 

[TiCaudata]

"Thank you for help with the wounds, kind angel. Shall we finish exploring the antechamber?"[sblock=oc]Jasper is going to chang his spell list, but I don't have time right now. I'll switch it before looking at any new posts.[/sblock]

 

[Lazlow]

"Now that the overgrown dirt clod is outta the way, I suggest we find out what it was guarding. Who's game?"

Padraig, Male Human Fighter

Padraig makes a great show out of his gratitude to the angel for removing his curse, and to whoever wields the wand to cure his wounds. Feeling himself again, he answers Gil and the others: "Count me in!"
