Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

[Lou]

Mingo Frasse & Anson & Mig

Mingo motions to Mig, who walks over next to her. Mingo stands, holding onto Mig's saddle. "By all that's holy, my head hurts! And my hair's ruined! All in a day's work, I suppose," Mingo sighes. "Let's follow the crowd." says Mingo as she climbs into Mig's saddle.

Anson shakes his head at Mingo and follows H'Roosh with Mig trailing behind.

Geoffrey is informed that the Ice ship was sailing at high speed against the wind, while the Bedsheet was becalmed. Once the ship had passed over the horizon there seemed no point in pursuit and they returned. The Radiant Sun took on a substantial force of mindless undead, but losses and damage to the ship were minimal. They came straight here and have not explored any other parts of the compound. They were outside when the explosion happened and figured this had to be where the action was.

The wounded party begins to make its way downstairs to the last door beyond which there is only silence.

Radoon discovers Marienna is covered in sores as well and wounded, but not in grave danger. A young priest has just cast a cure on her. Terry comments, "That bloody ice ship was moved by magic. I never saw her sails flutter. We couldn't possibly catch her."

OOC: Seeing no viable choice except to follow along with the others, Gnurl steels himself and follows along.

"Criminy!! I need a holiday after this!!"

(OOC: Gnurl is inordinately pleased that he's not covered in those big, gross sores!)

Radoon

Radoon belly laughs at Gnurls comment and says in return,

"I think we could all use one, or at least a night of drinking. Let's find out wher that hatch above us leads and what is making that noise downstairs and we can take at least a night of downtime."

 

[Lou]

which way?

OOC: Are we trying roof access or door below first?

 

[Leif]

"Well, since none of us have any spells remaining, I guess it just depends on whether you wish to die in the open air, or down below decks in a ship full of undead.

Resolution

Having gotten a status report and an idea of what is occuri Geoffrey says. "We should proceed if possible, we now have been reinforced and I would wager the worst foes have alreaady been killed or escaped" Turning to the ranking memeber of the Sun he says "Form up the brothers, we shall continue the investigation" then turning back to the party he says "I propose we set forth with the Sun's crew in the advance party as they are best equiped to deal with the undead, our party can form the center with the Bedsheet's crew forming the rear guard. Is this acceptable?"

"I'm not sure how I can be of any good to you, but I guess the safest place to be is right in the middle of an army of irate priests. Sounds good to me, just don't expect me to do very much, except cower and whine!"

 

[Scotley]

More reports come in. A large number of bodies are found under the tarp nearby. The priests are pretty sure they were animate undead until just recently. A couple more are found on the roof. Again likely former undead. It seems that the destruction of the altar may have destroyed the undead created with it. Of the dark priest there is no sign.

All that remains to be explored is the door downstairs and the sleek yacht.

OOC: Question

You said that all of my prepared spells were gone from my mind. Do we feel as is any amount of time has passed? Because if we were out for a night or something, then I can prepare the spells I have the Spell Mastery feat for, can't I, even without taking time to study my spellbook?
