Up on reaching our destination i ask "You knew what was down in the well though didn't you? Ya, you did. Well turns out we may need you, do you have a brother by chance?"
 


"our records indicted it to be an under ground lake, but they were horrible out of date. Even by our standards, it was the only logical place to hide an army. I had a brother..." his voice trails off and a tear glistens on in the corner of his eye. Then in a sing song fashion he asks, "And how may I be of service?"
 

Note to self don't push the brother topic. "Tell me what is in the cave. Tell me how to kill it. Tell me what the baron is, to save time tell me everything you know. As well are you sent by one of the kingdoms that the town is asking for help? Do you know if there is any way to get help?" I breath in deep and look down at Rhiannon who appears to be listening intently and lock my eyes on the elf. "Oh ya, what is your name?"
 

"You know what is in the cave as well as I do. As for the 'baron' I know not what what kind of monster he is, I only know that it is by my hand that his end will come. I am alone, there are no elven reinforcements coming. Officially this is considered a human problem. What their doing I haven't a clue, my hunch is that they are attempting to figure out how to tax the barron." He puases ofr a monent. "I'm sorry that was uncalled for. My name Lt Alastar Gormery, of the elvin 3rd light rangers batalion. And to whom do i have honour of speaking with?"
 

Rhiannon proffers a hand. "Rhiannon Star, soon-to-be saviour of the sleepy hamlet of St. Avril, lured in by promises of tea and biscuits." She grins wryly. "Actually, my able companion and I are, I suspect, on the same errand as you: to stop this self-styled baron. We were considering a number of more...unorthodox...methods, due to the meagre resources and manpower available. Your presence and knowledge is a great boon. Although..." and she pauses to quirk her head at him curiously, "You did not say whether you were here in an unofficial official capacity, or of your own personal volition."
 

"My mission is that of vengence, and the baron is my target. Our goals, it would seem, co-inside. You may take all the credit, and be ailed as a hero in song and tale. I care not for those things. be forwarned I will kill the baron, and any that would stop me."
 

"Well then I suppose there shall be no songs writen about this one cause all we need no songs. I will be happy to fight by your side to destroy the baron. Do you have a plan or can we just storm in?"
 

"Storming in, although satisfying, would be unwise. Unless of course you two are infact an advanced scoting unite from the human armies?

I was attempting to porb his 'castle and find a back door as it were. If we can kill him his controll over the undead we also be destroyed. But untill then we still have to contend with them."
