[IC1] Pool of Radiance

[hafrogman]

Seeing the battle behind him completed even as he chases down his foe, Kylest cleans his blade upon the orc and then trudges back to his companions, dragging the body behind him. Once he nears his comrades he calls out to them.

"Tried to get away, the rascally trouble-maker."

The halfling holds his sling at the ready, not convinced that the battle is truely over. Finally, with an exhalation, he takes a more relaxed pose and pats his dog on the neck.

 

[Krug]

Oog goes over to search the fallen enemies, hoping for some good loot, but not too optimistic. They're orcs, after all...

 

[Thanee]

Searching the bodies, Oog is quickly disappointed by there severe lack of valuables. They don't even have coppers on them. Their weapons and armor are of average quality only, nothing special. What they do have are simple leather necklaces with the symbol of Bane on them.

“It doesn't seem, that other patrols were near, as there are no reinforcements. Good for us!” says Dirtan. “Now that we are here, we should be able to make it to the temple without much hassle.”

 

[Mista Collins]

"Then let us continue to the temple!"

 

[Scotley]

Eldwyn

The halfling nimbly mounts up. "Yes, lets keep moving."

 

[Voadam]

"The victim went in there." Kordunn chases after the victim, not sure now if he is an innocent victim.

 

[Thanee]

Kordunn runs after the human, but the man is faster and easily outpaces the dwarf, especially with the headstart he got during the combat. Kordunn only catches sight of him once as he turns around a corner to the east (top side of the map, north is left), having left the building he vanished into on the other side. As the others join the dwarf in the pursuit he's long gone, and since they do not want to alarm the orcs, being reasonably sure, that this human won't run to them, they get back to work.

Slowly, the adventurers approach the temple, that is lying north of them, always wary of more guards, but only as come within a hundred feet of the old temple, their ears pick up orcish voices again. This time, they sound rather bored. There are still some ruined buildings between them and the temple at this point.

 

[hafrogman]

Kylest shrugs at the loss of the man, but he is wondering what he was doing out here in the first place. Were there campments of survivors among the ruins? Living wild among the monster-kin? Perhaps this was something to report to New Phlan upon their return.

----------------------

He brings himself up short as soon as he hears the orc voices. They may sound bored, but they're likely more alert than the last batch. He could try scouting again, but this time he could be heard, perhaps it would be better to simply rush them and attempt the element of surprise. He looks around at his companions for a second. . . well, he could guess Aylor's choice, but the others might want input. He silently mimes sneaking and then shrugs his shoulders expressively.
