Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter VIII

OoC: It's around late evening. From now on, I'm planning on having a rough estimate of the time of day at the top of all my IC posts so there is no confusion. That should help things out a bit.

After a mostly uneventful day of haggling with the local traders. The only shock of the day was Laurent’s story. Only somewhat troubled, but to tired Dunstand retreats to his room for some sleep expecting to have a hard day tomorrow.

Dunstand’s dreams are plagued by the images of his old companions and dungeons full of children screaming strange poetry.

Waking early next day, Dunstand goes down to the common-room to break his fast.
[sblock]The list is now final, plz update you sheets and make sure if you get a new weapon and or armor to update is accordingly.[/sblock]
 

Calenthang guards the door to his room for every hour the others sleep longer than he. When Dunstand goes downstairs to breakfast, Calenthang joins him quietly. He will remain in the common room until the others are ready to ask the childrens' parents about whatever things they thought were necessary. He didn't pay much attention...
 

Teleri slides into her normal place at the table, ordering breakfast and eating, noticing that the others especially the non-elvish members were mostly looking like something the dog had dragged into the cottage after burying it, digging it out and dragging it through some mud and then playing tug of war with something unmentionable.
After 'sleeping' for her four hours, she had spent the night praying and had come no closer to inspiration than the day before. Hopefully with the spell Sehanine had granted her (Detect Undead), she may gain some clues. It was worth a shot if nothing else. This town was creeping her out.
 

Sielwoodan waits for the others to go back to there room nefore following them. As teh other leave, his eyes turn on Broddy for a quick moment. His silence concerns him. He don't like much his continuous flow of words, but at least he knows he is going well...

As he returns to his room, he lay down on his bed. His head seems to want to explode. Too much concerns are stuck in it. Finding his way in the wild, it is a second nature to him, and he always has left the other things to others, but after the dissapearance of now five companions, his mind have been occupied at other things, and among them, to make sure the group stay together. It would be so easy to just leaves and let the others to continue alone. But he find himself somehow bound to find at least Ayden, who among them all, has been the only one Sielwoodan have learn to trust... it is maybe because of that he felt the charge of taking care of the group, because he deosn't trust anyone else to do it correctly, or at least to lead him...

Sielwoodan awake in the morning. The sun isn't yet up, but the sky have started to turn. The tracker take his things and silently walk down to the stable, where he take some moment to groom Felmir. As he returns to the common room, he see some of his companions who are already awake. Sielwoodan takes his meal in silence, awaiting the other to come down and eat.
 

Broddy is one of the last to wake and head down to breakfast, although he still isn't quite his normal self he does look a lot better then the day before.

"Morning."

Laurent again spends the night in the stables, Rex curled up somewhere close and Hector watching with typically owl-like impassivity. Day breaking he picks the occassional piece of straw out of his hair and clothes and settles in for some bread, cheese and goats milk."Does milady wish to cast before we move out?" he asks Teleri.
 

"No... This sort of thing works better at dusk or at night." Teleri said, looking uneasy at the thought of deliberatly trying to contact the dead, but she firmly decides that if they wish to be laid to rest, she will do so to the best of her ability.
 

Calenthang doesn't bother trying to understand why Teleri's magic would work better at night; the undead don't stop being undead during the day. He does however perk up at the scent of fear coming off of the priestess.
Let's get this charade over with! he thinks to himself, waving a hand to encourage the others to lead the way.
