[LPF] A Bad Light

[Gerald007]

Syl makes a mental note to go back and check the small armory for any magical weapons that might have been picked over by the prior inhabitants. He followed behind the group quietly, letting Fury do his thing.

"Hello, child, what are you doing in here all by yourself," he asked, not approaching too closely, expecting something strange with the child.

The child seems to fixate on the Fury and Borric, apparently terrified of them. Fury detects something odd in her behavior, but is unable to pinpoint anything specific.

Borric Hawkins, Male Human Fighter

Borric looks at the child queerly and remarks, "What the hell? She doesn't belong here at all. It must be some trick. Can anyone see if there are magical auras around? Maybe it is a demon with a magical disguise."

He stands ready, apprehensive.

[sblock=OOC]The locks on the doors, were they padlocks? I am wondering if they were locked to keep people out only, or to keep people in and out.[/sblock][sblock=Mini Stats]Initiative: +4

Borric Hawkins

 

[sunshadow21]

[sblock=ooc]They were built into the doors and solid, but not overly heavy. Since the armory, such as it is, is on this floor, you think they were probably intended to keep random people out of rooms that at least at one time served a quasi military role, though the description you got from the militia report suggests they've probably served as little more than private spaces for the officers for quite some time now.[/sblock]

 

[perrinmiller]

[sblock=ooc]So was the little girl locked in? Or we just locked out and she could unlock the door from her side?[/sblock]

Fury scowls at the child.

"There's something a bit odd about this urchin. I can't place it, but..."

He falls silent and continues to look down at the girl. Fury's known a lot of urchins from Planks and he stands there trying to figure out what is different. Finally he sighs and looks to the others with a shrug.

"I'm not so good with kids, girls especially. Maybe one of you should have a go at talking to her. And I haven't quite got the hang of the 'magic sight' thing, either..."

[sblock=ooc]The little girl was locked in unless she had a key to lock the door from the inside.[/sblock]

Anna steps past Borric and Fury, waving them back.

"This just needs a woman's touch I think...."

Anna pauses a moment before approaching the child, then crouches low.

"Hi. My name is Anna, can you tell me your name? Don't worry about these fellows, they are here to protect us. Nobody is going to hurt you...."

The girl doesn't take her eyes off of the armored men, but calms down enough to reply. "I, I am Lykast. Is that evil creature lives upstairs dead?"

 

[toasterferret]

Anna raises an eyebrow and continues talking down the child.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Lykast. We haven't been upstairs yet, but we are here to help. Is there anything you can tell me about the creature?"
