Island Empire, Part III, The Lich's Curse

Gnurl Whiskerling hp76/76,AC23

Gnurl, seeing the orc snap to attention and then make to leave the Radiant Sun, will move to block his progress and gesture with his wand that the orc had better stop and lock it up right where he is. Speaking to Radoon, he says, "There may be something to what you suggest, Radoon. We certainly need to explore the idea further before our 'guest' here departs."

OOC: I know I posted to this thread last night! Dropped Post Symdrome (DPS) strikes again! Errr, I DID post last night. Could I just have forgotten to address the important topic of the orc? Surely not!

The orc halts when Gnurl starts waving his wand around. This guy seems to know that wands are dangerous and he is used to doing what he's told.

Zurrik Odeil

Zurrik breaks his silence, "The Count is likely scrying on us through his servant, so the discussion is moot. Let's take a few minutes to gather what items we wish to carry with us and move out."

Addressing the orc, Zurrik says, "I must get a change of clothes to meet your master. I will return shortly."

Zurrik then moves below deck and changes into a clean silk outfit of bright yellow, a slightly brighter shade than he is currently wearing.

"Radoon, what say you to Zurrik's observation about the Count spying on us via scrying? That doesn't really make any difference to the issue that the Count took Geoffrey's crewmen, and so owes him for that. For this debt, this orc, while merely of meager value in himself, could at least provide some small value as a crewman to offset Geoffrey's loss. I think that if this Supposed Count has hostile intentions toward us, then he has certainly had ample opportunity to make an assault with something more formidable than this pissant orc and his flying monkeys! No, I think it is more likely that this bastard is toying with us to allay his boredom and lonliness, and will only pose a danger to us if we go within his immediate zone of power. The Wizard Has Spoken."

OOC: Gnurl winks at Zurrik as he makes this speech, suggesting that he agrees with Zurrik's assessment, but is saying his present words for the benefit of the Count, not his friends.

Radoon

"You are all my friends and I will follow you to the end. Let's hope this isn't it."

Radoon will look to H'Roosh, "Are you ready my nimble friend?"

 

[J. Alexander]

In a cold voice Geoffrey says "Master Gnurl Lower your wand..you will thereaten no one under a flag of truce" then calling to one of the officers he says "Please escourt the messenger SAFLEY to his vessel"... Then addressing the assembled party he add "It will be very dangerous waters we go into gentlemen and like always we have little or no information to act upon..Zurick is right though...if we plan on attending we had best take a few moments to prepare.....I propose we reassemble here in thirty minutes to make our final plans then we will follow the orc"

Gnurl stands down as so graciously requested, and moves to head back to the CreestDancer, assuming that the line connecting the ships is still in place.

 

[Scotley]

The officers move to comply with Geoffrey's request. The lines to the Crestdancer are in place and Gnurl and any of his companions can easily make his way back aboard.

Once onboard the CrestDancer, Gnurl asks Captain Swabby if he will brew some of his "special tea" for Gnurl. (Earl Grey ) He will then go to his stateroom and change tunics, just to be different, and take a seat at the table to wait for his tea.

OOC: Nice new avatar Leif.

His tea is soon ready. Just the way he likes it.
