Non-Iconics Adventure. Dungeon of the Fire Opal Part 3

[Taz]

Taz picks up the wand and takes a look at that medaillon. Does it look like a religious sign (like she is praying to her god, to protect her or to foretell the arrival of her soul or something)? Could Taz pickpocket it from her (probably not, while the witch is grasping it, but maybe when she is distracted by Ubaar )?

 

[Murhid]

Now slowly swaying from side to side as if intoxicated, Murhid feels the full effects of the demons liquor...

Murhid then puts both fists up (trying to regain some dignity), readying to stop any escape the imp may try.

Re: Re: Hillside ambush, round 6

After stalking another step forward, Jalon pounces on the confused imp. Recognising the fiend's confused efforts to escape, Jalon Lashes out at the imp with a powerful stroke of his blade.

Jalon swings his sword in a powerful downward blow. The blessed sword cuts through the imp easily, inflict a grievous wound.

Then, the imp tries to fly away, turning its back to the priest. Jalon takes the opportunity to skewer the fiend on his holy blade. The imp screams, a piercing cry of pain, as it tries to remove the sword from its abdomen with its hands, only to have them burns up with it touches the weapon.

Soon, its struggles stop.

When Ubaar picks up the witch and shakes her, she releases the medallion.

She seems a bit catatonic. She totally ignores Ubaar's questions and hangs limply in his arms, not fighting back, repeating over and over something in that strange language.

(Well, the medallion hangs around her neck and she's off the ground being shaken by Ubaar, so you can't. )

It looks somewhat like this :
(Okay so it doesn't work. I'll make it a link instead)

It's not a religious symbol of any religion any of you know about.

 

[Taz]

“Ubaar, could you secure that medaillon, please? Just to make sure, she doesn't do any harm to us with it.”

“She looks like she has accepted her defeat. What should we do now?”

 

[CRGreathouse]

Kytess looks suspicious of the ease of the witch's defeat. Clipping her 'chain on hr pack, she draws a dagger.

 

[Murhid]

"Many thanks Jalon"

Murhid clears some dirt from his eyes. Then stands waiting for Jalon to lead the way to the others.

 

[reapersaurus]

Ubaar sees she's preoccupied mumbling that strange language and that the medallion is probably dear to her.

Ubaar takes the medallion off her neck by force in case it's the cause of her inattention or it being a holy item of power, as he's seen once before in his adventuring days.
He throws it to the ground and tries to make her speak once more.

If he doesn't get any results, he'll yell out to the others:
"HEY! Anyone know how to speak this witch's language?!"

 

[CRGreathouse]

(I assume Kytess can't make anything out of the babbling; she knows Common and Orc and recognizes some Goblin.)

 

[Jalon Odessa]

Wiping his ichor-covered blade on his white surcoat, Jalon walks towards the witch held fast by Ubaar with quick yet measured steps.

'Do you speak the common tongue, fiend? Your abhorant deeds shall not go unpunished, yet indeed you deserve the right to defend your actions and make your peace. If you cannot, or chose not to communicate or cooperate, then I have no choice but to exact justice in the name of my lord Tyr.'
