IG's "Those Left Behind" Chapter 2

After listening to the going ons, even the striking of the priest and the lecture that follows, Buurt finally breaks his silence as he asks, "The one who caused this is not only alive, but below us somewhere?"

Casting a glance toward what was once their friend, but is something else forevermore, after a breath Buurt says to you lot, as a whole, "You don't know me from a sell sword, but if'n you'll have it, I'd like to offer my help."

Still emotionally drained from his "lecture," Uulark just smiles at Buurt and motions to him that he should come along with the group.
 


Talashia gives the priest an offended look and shrugs, then turns and goes to where Rokelesh crouches near what was once Friadoc.

"I suppose we should notify his next of kin...you do know who that is, right?"
 

Caeryn looks to Buurt and answers, "yes, the summoner who cast the first stone is in an area near the sewers. he had summoned ogre zombies that hindered us from getting here sooner." he looks to the others and shrugs, "can we use another? i would think so."
 

Rogash

The Dwarf fumes at the delay, but realizes he can't risk leaving a chaos beast in their wake. He responds to Buurt with a nod and saying, "We could use another sword," so agitated that he accepts a half-orc into the group without a second thought.

Rokelsh's comment draws his attention, "Alas, though I had become quite fond of Friadoc in our short association there was no time to discuss such matters, so I know not what his preferences would have been or who his relations are."
 


And as you ponder over the deeds of the halfling, what was once him still lies gurgling before you. The creature finally comes to a rest when one last piece of its amorphous boils over and pops, sending a sickly gray ooze spattering harmlessly into the air.

"Below us," the priest says as he finally starts to come to his senses. "In the sewers? Are you sure it hasn't come to the surface with you? No, no.. of course you've remembered to seal the entrance. What kind of adventurers would you be otherwise?" The priest gives a weak laugh at his joke as he pulls a potion from his robes and quaffs it in one gulp.

**GULP!** "We DID do that, didn't we? You guys were the last ones out, so I hope you remembered to turn the lantern off."
