Of Sound Mind II

Gholog

Gholog waits for Jason to strike a light of some sort.

Jason Master

"Um..." Jason says, "I'm afraid I'm not 'gonna be much help like this. Do you think we can risk lighting a torch or something, Gholog?"

After a short pause, a thought hits the young man and he adds, "Oh, and here's your glave." He holds out the weapon, offering it to Gholog.

"Thanks," Seraphina says off-handedly to the people who helped her, then heads to her room.

This isn't good. The group is quite split up, now. Even if Kerrick and I wanted to find the others, we'd probably just get lost.

Well, they will probably return... eventually. In the meantime, Kerrick and I can keep our eyes here in town, and relay anything we find to our friends when they return.

And the mine... and the headaches. I don't get it. None of it makes any sense. Kerrick might have learned something, but I won't know until he gets back.

Seraphina remains in her room, deep in thought.

Gholog

Gholog picks up his glaive, and tosses it casually over his shoulder.

"I think you'll like the light, my friend. The benefit to you far outweighs the risk of losing the element of surprise."

Kerrick:

You continue after the old woman, who seems to be heading away from Bellhold as quickly as she can manage. You continue after her quietly (Move Silently 4+4=8), until you catch your foot on a small stone and send it skittering along the path after the woman. She turns to face you.

"I can see you, young man, and I don't like being followed. I don't have anything worth stealing, so just be on your way."


Gholog and Jason:

Gholog pulls a torch out from his pack and lights it. He holds it up as it starts to burn, illuminating your surroundings. The light glimmers off an iridescent green beetle that quickly scuttles away from this source of fire.


Adren and Aiden:

The light continues to fade from the sky, leaving you in an ever darkening clearing. Even Adren's sharp eyes have a job picking out details around them.

(Gholog doesn't carry any torches. It's not an oversight; he isn't a veteran adventurer and didn't think to carry any. It's possible he could've improvised one if Jason doesn't have one.)

Once his human companion, Jason, can see, Gholog will lead the way down the passageway before them.

I know, but Jason doesn't have any either, so I thought it would speed things along if one just appeared in his pack

Gholog

"I'm glad the master bade me to carry a torch... here, Jason." Gholog hands it over. "I need both hands free for my glaive."

Jason Master

, Thanks for the speed, Jarval.

"No Problem," Jason responds. "It's very lucky your master told you to bring this along. I'm afraid I won't be able to use my bow, or spells for that matter, but I can still kick just fine, I'm sure.

OOC: Only one hand for spellcasting. Carry torch and bow, drop torch for combat. If we live, pick it up again.

Gholog leads the walk down the pathway, keeping at least five feet ahead of Jason at all times.
