[QUOTE="Hrothgar, post: 2825735, member: 22226"] Valurel and Starhl ease themselves and the Wolf from waist high water and silty river-bed over a stone wall and into inky blackness. The dark figure follows the two Heroes and the hiss of wood against wood sounds as the small access way is closed. The unknown benefactor next to the Heroes whispers, [COLOR=Olive]I've got the two. Give us some blasted light.[/COLOR] The flame of a small candle springs up in the darkness. In the dim illumination, Valurel and Starhl can make out a small wood-floored room with rough, masonry walls. Near the edges of the room stand four sour-faced gnomes, three armed with crossbows leveled at the Heroes and the fourth holding the candle. The tall, unknown guide throws back a black hood, revealing long brown hair and beard. An Erenlander from the look of him. He raises an eyebrow as the Wolf's hackles raise. [COLOR=Olive]My friends here have itchy trigger fingers. And they are not too pleased with your stunt above. Luckily, I convinced them to let me guide you in here.

[I]There was an old whore that lived under a skeleton oak Along came a Blood Mother to give her a poke He went upriver to spread her skinny thighs And the dirty maggot enjoyed her moans and sighs On the way out he slipped in the mud Caught at a log and fell with a thud Washed down the river his hands clutching the raft Not all the river could wash away the burning rash![/I] Is this the oak mentioned in the song?
