[LPF] Lost Imperium

[perrinmiller]

Pirvina maneuvered her horse around to get a better angle against the remaining hobgoblin. She invoked her spell again and threw another globe of acid at the lone foe and it burned the hobgoblin's skin with an audible sizzle. The hobgoblin was nearly finished (only 2 hp remain) and a stiff breeze would complete the job.

"He is all yours, Tsaaruk. If we want to question him, only use the flat of your blade."

Tsaaruck feels the sword smash through his armor leaving a gouge in his flesh. Biting through the pain he swings his hammer. A mighty swing. In his bloodied state he misses the nearly unconscious hobgoblin. He braces for another strike by the hobgoblin hoping his friends will kill it before it gets him.

"Yes, I was taught to believe that all creatures have a place in this world. In this case, apparently hobgoblins exist to be eaten alive by giant bloodsucking bugs, and giant bloodsucking bugs exist to punish evil hobgoblins." Quillian continues his lively scamper down the hill as the stirges continue to plague the sole remaining hobgoblin, with the one already attached easily staying on and another successfully attaching itself.

Take him alive? Now that was an idea. Samad finally rode forth into the fray, and, leaning back, landed a kick to the goblin's skull, dropping him like a sack of stones. The battle done, he shrugged out of his trance and nodded, "We should tie him up and question him when he comes to."

Dismounting, he strode over to Tsaaruck, and looked over his wounds, "You are seriously hurt, let me help, friend." He whispered yet another prayer and held his hand aloft, which caught in a brilliant light. Placing his palm over the wounds, they too illuminated, and while they had not vanished completely, they had certainly lessened in severity.

Pirvinia von Lichenstein, Human Female

"Good work, Samad."

Pirvinia remained atop her horse for a moment, even after the battle was over. She sent Mazi aloft to look around for more of the cowardly hobgoblins lurking in amongst the hilling forest around them.

She commented, "This appeared to be an organized ambush. I had not thought such brutes normally operated thusly. Mayhap there will be something on them to provide us a clue."

The sorceress road back to the corpse of the ogre and dismounted. She started searching the body and asked Brother Groswald. "Do you know if hobgoblin and ogre bandits are normal for this region? Or could someone have set them upon us?"

"While I suppose it's possible that it was intended for us specifically, I find it more likely that it was simply a generic robbery attempt; only way to know for certain is to search the dead and interrogate our prisoner." Quillian speaks as he pulls out a potion from his backpack and pours it down the throat of the downed horse; while not enough to truly heal it, it at least is enough to bring the horse back to consciousness. After looking around and confirming that everyone else was more or less at full health, he reached out to the horse with his hand as he softly chanted and a soft breeze encircled the horse, healing it further; this time, the magic has a much greater effect, though the horse is still clearly heavily injured. "If anyone else can help the horse, I can start to search the dead, I fear my limited funds keep me from having a proper wand to deal with these situations, and I am still getting used to not having such healing more freely at my beck and call as I have for the last few years." With that, he turns his attention to searching the dead.

Hurting from the arrows and sword cut Tsaaruck takes a knee after the last Hobgoblin falls unconscious. He is relieved of a bit of the pain as Samad casts his healing spell. "Thank you for that and all of you for not letting me die here today." He rests a moment and then stands and walks to horse to examine the wounds it received during the battle.

Brother Goswald scratches his chin and looks thoughtful at Pirvinia's question but eventually shakes his head.

"I agree with Quillian: I don't think we were targeted specifically. Outside of the settled areas the land gets wild quickly. I think we just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time."

Quillian begins searching the bodies. The ogre has mouldy hide armor, a set of javelins, and a greatclub; all too large for any, even Tsaaruk, to use effectively. The hobgoblins seem a little better equipped with studded leather armor, a light steel shield, longsword, longbow, and arrows. Most of the gear is barely average quality but the leader's longsword is well crafted and well cared for.
