After the first spell cast on him, Mak says: "Oh, thanks, but don't waste your art on me, Khelon; can you do anything for her?." pointing the the dying girl. Can you give me a hand to drag taking this beast out of here, Brawn? Will another fask of acid work, Khala?"

Actually, ugly beast, I'm very sorry I didn't hurt you more.

While he wait for the answers, he searches the remnants of the half-troll for anything valuable, trying not to look too obvious.

OOC: What's a little pick pocket between friends?

Medium Troll Scale Male
Masterwork Throwing Axe (in the wall I guess)
Masterwork Bastard Sword (in hands)
Masterwork Large Wooden Shield (On Back)

That summarizes it's valluables I believe...

How is a male scaley troll a valuable? ;)

And either the Throwing Axe is still in Brawn's shoulder, or it fell off where it nailed Brawn.

Brawn walks back to where he got 'axed' and picks it up, testing the weight and balance.
 

Khelon,

You recall that there is a potent cleric in Allimon, the city you came here from. Allimon is about 58 miles south of Farlisk (You are Here). The Cleric is none-other than the man that you trained under, Alexander Grandage. Alexander is a great Breton Cleric, and has a great deal of knowledge and experience about the world. You are quite well recited in his lifestyle and attitude. The man is a nice balding/bearded breton of small stature and large forearms. He is the most likely source for healing this woman, and you know quite well he would help you for no monetary cost.

You have studied his notes, and you know that he can cast the spell needed to heal this woman. Your expected travel time for this trip is dependant on getting the appropriate kind of transportation. The local Giant Beatles are out of thier stables, and will likely be perfectly willing to take you in a week when they get back, however, they are not normally interested in performing "short" trips like 58 miles, and the week of delay may not be acceptable to your character, so you may choose to walk or ride by whatever means you can acquire. The woman's condition can be kept stable as long as you cast cure light wounds on her once each day, however if her condition become's threatened again you may not be able to save her.

The axe is definitely a fine weapon that can be used well in your hands. You find it quite to your liking weight/balance wise.
 

A short update to push the story along...

The situation with the woman is currently good, if you choose to keep her in this condition and take her to Allimon, I'll need to know what kind of transportation you all will choose to take.

(Page 143 Player's Handbook)
On foot, at 30 feet per round - 24 miles per day (2 days)
Light Horse or Light Warhorse - 48 miles (1.2 days)
Heavy Horses (not overburdened) - 40 miles per day (1.5 days)
Cart Mules and Wagons - 16 miles per day (4 days)

This is just rough travel time pending that you don't encounter too much traffic, damaged roads, or encounters.

Also, in town if you stay the fee is 5 silver per room in the inn.

There may be other leads if anyone wants to look for them, and you probably should find out the identity of the injured woman, though it's entirely up to each of you as individuals. Also, the authorities will be curious no doubt... as it's commonly known that dead trolls and injured women are disturbances in the peace.
 

Brawn comes back from picking up the axe and drags the half-trolls body away from the flammable haybales wherever someone smart says would be the best place to burn in.

If he sees anyone fussing over the chewed limbless woman, he'll ask "What you doing?
Isn't she dead?

I'm sure she'd rather be dead than live like that."
 

Khelon looks up from the woman

"I know of someone who could heal her, as badly wounded as she is, Alexender Grandage, one of the most powerful clerics in the area and my teacher in the priestly ways. But its 2 days journey from here if we walk, less time if we find transport. As long as she remains unconscious, and I can tend to her, she will be in no pain. I think a small delay in our plans might be in order, this women could use some help. We need to journey to Allimon."
 

"A quest to save an innocent. A very noble deed to do. I will join on this trip. But I don't think I have the money necessary to get myself a transport, I used all that I had left to get here."
 

Yorick looks at the woman laying on the floor says in common, "Asss much asss I would lovess to helppssss her I cannot afford to paysss for her limbssss. I will accompany the group to the clergy but sssheee issss going to have to play for her own ssssspellling."
 

Hearing Yorick's hiss reminds Brawn , o 0 "Oh, yeah, I'm supposed to be a Lizardman!"

"Guyssss? It'sss late, and we're sssupossssed to get jobsss tonight?
Anyone elssse want to ssstill meet the elfsiesss?

I don't usssually travel at midnightss...
"
