Message: <blockquote data-quote="Keia" data-source="post: 1554854" data-attributes="member: 98">Rappai, Grippli Cleric/Divine Oracle (Jarrijan, Grippli Monk)“Meetings, I said, meetings there would be . . . and changes, changes for us, changes for them . . . but not the same, not the same,” Rappai told Jarrijan. Both looked on at the big scales and the pale skins near the sacred spring . . . her sacred spring.  Rappai and her protector, Jarrijan, had spent the last several days watching the spring – looking for any clue as to what had happened or what could be in the hole.  But saw nothing.Rappai was a seeress for her grippli tribe, the Tealback tribe, and this spring was a focus for her power . . . luckily not the only focus, but an important one.  Without it, she had advised that three warriors go into depths and correct the wrong.  The warriors never returned . . . she had read the runes wrongly – that was the only possibility.  The runes had said that three warriors would enter the hole, and the spring would return.  Rappai must have read them wrong.  Jarrijan spoke, which he seldom did, he voice a much deeper croak than most of the tribe, “We go now, make certain of outsiders, fix the spring, go home?” he asked.  It was the most Jarrijan had spoken since they arrived.  Rappai didn’t need to be a diviner to know this was important to him.“Go, go if you must go, Jarrijan.  Tell, yes tell those of my coming,” Rappai told her guardian.  Then added, “Do not, do not you start fight. No fight.”Jarrijan nodded to Rappai, scanned the immediate area for any danger that would snap up his ward while he moved the few hops to the newcomers.  The grey and green skinned grippli moved stealthily until he was close, then walked out into the clearing waiting to be recognized.  The grippli stood just over two feet tall, with dark green and grey skin.  A kukri hung on his belt, no weapons were in hand.</blockquote>
