[QUOTE="Aura, post: 6394134, member: 6747658"] The group prepares for the night. Tents are pitched, the fire is allowed to die down, and Anna's ankle is wrapped, for which the priestess is thankful. After a bit of post-dinner chatter, the rest of the group beds down, leaving Leira to her own for the next few hours. It is somewhat in the third hour of Leira's watch. The sky is mostly clear, with some scattered clouds. The canopy of stars affords her some light, and over time she can see it slowly move as the night progresses. However, the peace is broken when she hears the beginning of chanting coming from the nearby tree-line some thirty feet distant. By the time she looks, the rough outline of the trees against the sky is blotted out roughly where the chanting just ended. The blob of darkness then rushes at her, as if some kind of mythical monster, and any light she was previously afforded is snuffed out. A fraction of a second later, she hears a small object land near the campfire, but cannot see anything despite the short distance. [I]*fwip*[/I] The unmistakeable sound of a crossbow firing, albeit somewhat higher pitched, can be heard and a dart imbeds itself in Leira's side, a strange numbness directly following the sting of the impact. If she wasn't sure before, Leira is now certain: someone is really trying to get her. [sblock=Combat]Unknown foes are attacking. Leira stands in complete and utter darkness, but her memory tells her she is about 10 feet from the fire, where her comrades sleep in a rough semi-circle. Brandon is in his tent somewhat (15 feet) behind, as are the mules. It is Leira's action, she has taken 3 damage and the first thing she gets to do is make a Poison-based Fort save, DC 13.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
