Magic Kingdom For Sale* (*Some Assembly Required)

*The massive creature flops on the shore, attempting to reach you, though it is far too slow for land-dwellers. In a few minutes it begins to gasp, and finally it sags on the shore, gasping for breath and dying. Allyra sees the light of enchantment leave its eyes. Kira reports that there are arcane runes written upon the creature that can only be detected by magic. She can see them, but Allyra would have to use a different spell to read the magic writing.*
*Finally, the creature finally seems to expire. If anyone cares to take a closer look, they notice something odd. There are what appear to be a series of engraved pins, each a foot long and about an inch wide, covered with heavy writing, thrust through the fins of the creature. For those that know Giant, the pins all together say "Leave this place."*

*Dubheasa stands silent staring at the creature. She has stayed at this lake side for some time now and had never laid eyes upon this creature or dared to wonder if something this big lurked beneath the surface*
"Why would someone command this creature to rise now?" The thought crosses her mind as she eyes the pins from where she stands.

“Leave this place!”
After getting a few strange looks, Allyra adds: “It's a message. That's what the pins say.”
“There are also a number of arcane runes written on the creature's body, a text, which can only be discerned by a spell, which I unfortunately do not have prepared right now, so if one of you can read the magical writing, please go ahead, but be careful, I do not know what magics it holds.”

*Dubheasa bites her tongue. She is fresh and has the spell, as well as the magic item to help with reading the ruines, but what have these people brought her today.... Nothing but trouble. She looks to the creatrue once again and curiousity over takes her. She steps closer to the no longer slithering beast and crouches down.*
"I can read these if you are in need of the information they will give."
She looks over her shoulder at the group standing silent.
OOC: If the group agrees she will cast read magic

*The runes upon the creature are runes of compulsion, set in a giantish hand. They clearly indicate this group of people as the targets... and it seems clear this was not the only creature compelled to do so. The giants are apparently aware of the Hex's presence, and are prepared to react with violence.*

“We appreciate that. Thank you! I hope the information will help us unveil this rather strange incident, even though it seems obvious already, that someone is aware of us and does not like it.”
“So, what should we do now? Rezomael? Drakkon? Trekt?”
Phaeder seems to be lost in thought or silent conversation with his ‘inner spirit’ as it happens sometimes, and Allyra doesn't want to interrupt him, so she only addresses the others around her.

"Well, it's starting to get pretty obvious that we have a giant problem.", *Rezomael says.* "We could either finish our scouting trip around the lake, tell our people to start making a camp somewhere, and start moving towards the mountains where the giants supposedly live to solve this problem. Or we could ignore the giants, and just kill every damn creature they throw at us, but I'm not sure that's wise. They might start targeting the caravan. Any other suggestions?"
