[LPF] Scourge of the Howling Horde

[GlassEye]

Agno is disappointed he can't figure out more concerning the dwarven symbol but that sort of thing was never his strong point and he doesn't waste much time worrying about it.

"Perhaps that dwarf from Barrow's Edge might have, hurrr... academic interests in the scrolls. Delver lore, no doubt, of little interest to any but a dwarf." He'll help Sylla pack up the stuff and will carry any potions that the others think he should carry. Once that chore is complete he'll eagerly turn to the hall.

"I am eagerly excited to, hurrr... visit the dwelling place of dragons!"

Iago hands over the curative potion to the tengu, pocketing the potion of strength for his own use.

"Alright," he confirms, "Let us move on to the barred door."

OOC: I'm sorry people. I'm getting married to my wife this weekend. Between that and work, I kept forgetting to check in on this thread. Please NPC me. I'll post if I can but right now I can't even read all the posts since my last post. I'll be back to normal on Tuesday.

OOC: NPC'ing Denizel. Congrats, ScorpiusRisk.

Denizel was still at the doorway, waiting. He holds out his hand for the scrolls when Agno gets closer, "I can read dwarven, if we want to see what they say right now."

"What about the spiders?" He glances over his shoulder at the opening behind him that leads to the as yet unexplored cavern.

OOC: Congrats, SR!

Iago considers the bard's words. "We'll want to at least confirm the spiders are there before we bring the villagers here," he observes. "But perhaps we would do better spending our strength against the dragon first. If we consume too many magics, we can wait another day before confronting the spiders. But the longer we leave the dragon, the greater the chance it may come to investigate the goblins."

Sylla shrugs. She pulls the scrolls out of Boots' saddlebags and gives them to Denizel.

"The alchemist is right. The lizard is likely the bigger threat. And better not to face it while suffering the effects of a spider bite."

Agno nods agreeing with the general consensus to check out the area they believe holds a dragon first.

"That is an idea of, hurrr... good thinking. Maybe there is a snippet of usefulness in the dwarf writings, too. Please..." He'll hand over the papers to the bard.

OOC: NPC'ing Denizel.

Denizel looks over the scrolls for a few moments, quickly.

"Hmm, these scrolls talk about the dwarven enclave being positioned to guard the path to the underdark. But it is not clear whether they were protecting what lies below from interlopers from the surface world or protecting the surface world from some danger below.

"Here is an excerpt; This passage through the singing stones must be safe guarded at all costs. Our state of vigilance must not waiver. That which lies beyond must forever remain separate and apart."

"Not sure this is much help." He shrugs and tucks the scrolls away.

"So leaving the spiders in place is the best idea after all, and the idiot villagers want us to kill them." She sneers. "I'm inclined to give them what they've asked for ... after we deal with the lizard."

Iago looks unhappy, feeling, perhaps, that the situation has become too complex. He falls back on an old alchemist's principle: Solve the part of the problem you know how to solve first.

"On to the dragon, then," he says.
