OOC: Casper... we are already at the meeting place

OOC: zzzzzzz

OOC: There are too many ooc remarks. Maybe split the thread in IC and OOC? (works great at my other gaming group)

"zzzzzz"

 

[Spellsword]

OOC/Sorry...... Je moet iets zeggen.....just making conversation/OOC


Wulf Suggests:
Maybe we should refrain from splitting up the party....we are twice as strong and witty if we stay together


OOC/ ik bedoel dus dat voorkomt situaties waarin de helft niets te posten heeft.
Ik denk niet dat we teveel OOC hebben. deze quotes zijn onontbeerlijk voor een beetje humor..../OOC

"That is indeed true, Wulf, but I do think that we are not as good a scout as those three woodcrawlers are. My armor kinda gives it away... But point is taken and I totally agree with you. It is just not the best course of action in this scenario. Although what IS the best course of action remains to be seen

"frazaruza I still think arresting the Minotaurs is the best way... frazaruza"

 

[Ravellion]

After somehwere in between two and three hours, Patrick stops. He whispers in Ilan's ear: "It's really, really close now. If we go over this crest, and it would be autumn, we would be able to see their cave. As it is now, with all the leaves, chances are we won't be able to see it. I take it you memorized the way here, so we can return now?"

 

[Ilan]

OOC: Soz was waiting for you to reply, but that auto email doesn't work as great as it should.

"Actually I wanna go in and have a chat, since they, as far as I can see, have nothing to do with the disappereance of the four Amstradan knights. You can best stay here and cover my back. I want to know why we should try and arrest them. They have nothing to do with my mission I believe so why should I want to destroy them. There are Woman and mabye children to. It is not in my nature to punish the innocent. And mabye they can help me with my questions surrounding the knights and help us on our way."

OOC: Oh yeah just remembered you edited your post DOH

 

[Ravellion]

"Are you sure that that is wise? If they are hostile there is no way you can outrun them... some of them are really fast!" Patrick whispers.

 

[Ilan]

"The other ones didn't seem to be really hostile. Don't you think that it is really dumb to go pick a fight with a group of 20 Minotaurs without having a reason, mabye Roland has one, but I couldn't care less about the village. I'm here for my own reasons. I think I'll go in and ask some questions."

I only take 200 gp with me and leave the rest of my gold with Patrick.

"I will leave my money here. When the hits the rotating stick, cover me. Or when that is not possible go and get Deepwinter. He will know what to do."

I stand up and start walking towards the Minotaur encampment.

 

[Ravellion]

"What's the proverb again...? 'It's your funeral'? Oh well, I'll stay here and wait."

You approach the encampment after a short walk (approx. 300 feet) and see several animal hide tents in front of a cave. About 5 minotaurs armed with huge axes are walking about or doing mnial tasks, some cleaning food, others sharpening javelins. Two minotaurs flank the cave entrance. They have not seen you yet.

 

[Ilan]

I approach the tents until they see me. When I notice that they have spotted me approaching them I speak up: "Hail, Minotaur friends. I Elf that lives in forest. Can I speak to you. I can pay for answers."
