Iron Heroes: A Saga of Might

[Dr Simon]

Moments later, Wade comes around, rubbing his jaw where Kane smacked him with his club. He still seems beaten and bruised, but otherwise none the worse for wear.

Olmar examines the cliff. His dropped brand lies about 20 ft. below, revealing a shingle beach with a derelict-looking landing stage and two rather battered skiffs. The iron rungs lead all the way down to the beach.

Beyond is a narrow underground river, flowing easily (from left to right from Olmar's persective). Rivulets trickle down the far wall, about 8-10 ft. away, giving the water sounds that you heard earlier.

Xoria Heal check 6+9=15. I've fudged the healing rules a bit to keep things moving - rather than having to wait for Wade to wake up after stabilising, I've shifted just enough of his Reserve (4 points) to give him 1 hit point (he'd gone to -3 the intervening round).

I leave it to you if you want to wait here for Wade, Olmar and Vela to convert more Reserve to Hit Points, or to keep going to avoid pursuit.

"On your feet, we need to move," Xoria tells the stunned Wade. She looks over her shoulder down the passage, where the calls of the U-men's creatures echo.

William moves aside to let Xoria do her work on Wade. Taking the chance he looks over the thugs and traitors bodies quickly for any possible weapons before heading off down the tunnel.

William stops as Olmar makes his statement then looks at the water.

"That might help us get away quicker" he notes, trying not to look too pale at the thought of navigating a boat down an unknown subterranean river

"Does anyone know how to control one of those things?" William adds, gesturing at the boat.

 

[Shayuri]

"No," Vela replies. "We may have to work it out as we go. Time is going fast."

She glances back at the noisy passage, not quite fearfully, but with a definite sense of urgency.

"Split up between the two boats. No pursuit that way." She nods. "Also, if we lose one boat, we won't all die."

Wade finally gets enough sense in his head and the ringing had gone down enough that he could hear what everyone was talking about. "Oh, I can man a ship. That one there, ya, I can work with that one." Wade says as he gets up and runs over to the edge and than stops suddenly, "You didn't tell me there was a drop. Well than I think we might as well get a move on, because I don't like the feeling of bleeding out. If we can get some rope from the supplies around here we might be able to get down faster, so crew let's get searchin'." Wade says as he slowly moves over to one of the crates in the cavern.

"Oh, right. I geuss my head still isn't all up to par than it was before...well what are you all standing there for we have some climbing to do." Wade says with a renewed smile on his face because of his absent mindedness

 

[Shayuri]

Vela blows air out her nose exasperatedly and starts climbing down to the boats.
