[LPF] Kaedyn's Quest

[jkason]

Ru gave an overacted wave goodbye as the dragon faded from view. "Have fun in hell. Don't send us letters!" he called out.

The southerner surveyed the scene, then, tense for a moment until it became clear there were no further threats incoming. Then he sighed and relaxed.

"Well, that went much better than last time, eh, Princess?" he asks Damaris with a wink. Then he nods his head in Rhas's direction.

"Hopefully, her royal wingedness was the last nasty we'll have to deal with, but just in case, I think Prickly may need a little patching up," he says. To the dwarf himself he adds, "Sorry you had to play fetch with the doggie so long. His lady was tougher than she looked."

"Keep an eye on that" Damaris warned them about the body of the winged lady as she ran over to Rhas to provide some basic healing "Sorry for taking too long". She will use his CLW wand. "That should patch you up a little"

"Well struck!" Umthirn offers Ru. He turns and gives a nod to Rhas, seeing Damaris has already moved to tend to his wounds. He looks away, perhaps embarrassed by the concern for his cousin that he showed in the fight.

"Let's see what's over there," he mutters, making his way to the far door.

Rhas sits down heavily. "Aye ... you go do that. I'm just ... I'll just stay hear and ... catch my breath ... and bleed for a little while. Oof."

"Is she still... 'alive'?" Damaris calls back to Ru. "I still hear something there. Shouldn't we make sure she's dead...? I really don't think we can make it back with a prisoner, specially one as lovely as she is" she tries to remember if Kaedyn asked anything in special about the winged woman in the first place. It's been what it feels like ages since they left Venza. So much has happened that she can barely remember... she had almost forgotten about the demonbane vials!

"I can take care o' that from here, lass," Rhas says. He fires a final volley of bolts into the woman's chest. "Always double-tap. Me honored father taught me that, almost as soon as I could shoot."

"Zombie hunter I kept company with had much the same philosophy," Ru says with a thankful nod to Rhas. "Always good advice.

Speaking of, let's make sure the rest of our little friends aren't on the mend," Ru says. While Umthirn moves to look into the room, Ru makes a quick sweep of the enemies.

"Also, we can look for goodies this way," he adds. And, indeed, he begins to loot each body once he's assured himself they are only bodies now. If he finds any of them are still alive, he first asks the others, "Do we want one for questioning?" before making sure they're well and truly dead.

"I do see your point, Ru. Getting one of the tieflings back to Kaedyn might be alright for questioning, but I really don't want to take our chances if the guy manages to escape. They are resourceful and sneaky after all." Damaris goes back to pick up her dropped bow at the door and moves to check the rest of the room once Ru has finished with the other minions.

She's interested on checking the room where the winged woman came from.

Upon her death the invisibility spell wore off and the winged woman's corpse lay crumbled and battered on the stone floor. She was clearly dead.

Ru's examined the githyanki and the tiefling, finding they had expired as well.

Umthirn looked into the room the half-fiend had come from. There was a bedroll and a fur blanket that she probably used to sleep on. On the floor near the opposite wall was a wooden box about 2 feet long, a foot wide and foot tall. There were carved runes in the wood. It had a brass clasp keeping the lid closed.

Damaris casts Detect Magic and looks at the first door to her left. "Ru... can you see if this one is trapped? We still need to be careful about that"
