Q'Barra: Facing Truth Chapter 2

[BRP2]

Charles sighs slightly. He speaks in a very low tone: More prisoners, great.

(In Dwarven) "Looks like you didn't even Darrick or myself. Let's find out what we can from them first, and then decide. Ask away. Let me just ask them one thing." Catherine then uses her wand on Kaelan, and proceeds to disarm the two bandits. After they are disarmed, Catherine looks between the two bandits, and asks them one thing in halfling. "So, can either of you tell me what the price for failing is? I doubt Janus will look kindly on you getting beaten by some intruders, and kids no less."

Kaelan will recover 11hp over the course of 1 minute.

Trebuchet strides into the room as his hand snicks back into place. He surveys the suvivors balefully, then keeps watch at the other way in.

Kaelan

Kaelan gives the room a quick once over before moving back to the prisoners. As he paces around the room, his hands hold are clasped behind the small of his back. Very businesslike he speaks to the prisoners. "What is down this hallway," he says pointing to the hallway that they had yet to explore, "and what can you tell us of the leaders here? How many more people are here, not including the pathetic excuses for warriors that are hanging from the trees outside? Once the prisoners have answered, he reaches into his backpack, and pulls out a flask of alchemist's fire and a dagger, getting ready for the next combat.

After they are disarmed, Catherine looks between the two bandits, and asks them one thing in halfling. "So, can either of you tell me what the price for failing is? I doubt Janus will look kindly on you getting beaten by some intruders, and kids no less."

The human and the elf exchange glances before the elf speaks. He takes a deep breath and responds in Halfling. "If the Boss finds out, then we will be killed in the most painful fashion he decides to use. Which is why we beg of you to let us go free. No one ever leaves the Boss. You cannot decide you want out, no matter what. You die, or you follow him."

Very businesslike he speaks to the prisoners. "What is down this hallway," he says pointing to the hallway that they had yet to explore, "and what can you tell us of the leaders here? How many more people are here, not including the pathetic excuses for warriors that are hanging from the trees outside?

The elf looks to Kaelan and nods his head. It seems to take him a moment to find his words in common. "Right past this hall is the armory. There are two mercenaries guarding the treasure room, three guards watching over the prisoners, and then at least three other patrols, like us, roaming the halls. The Boss is fearsome. He has his priest with him always, and his personal bodyguard."

Kaelan 23/36hp 3DR remain, 2 hp healed

Kaelan crouches before the prisoners and holds his dagger in front of them. "Tell us more of the mercenaries and of your bosses. The halfling, his priest, and the personal bodyguard. All you can think of, the armor and weapons they carry, who they intone their prayers to, any symbols they have."

 

[Pebele]

The elf eyes the dagger, and then eyes Kaelan before speaking. "I'm not sure if you have time for the entire list of the atrocities committed by the Boss. The Boss' bodyguard, he is a lizardfolk. He wears more armor than I have ever seen, even more than those two." He points to Catherine and Darrick. "And a shield, too. The priest wears some strange heavy armor that I've never seen before. They both use swords." He pauses for breath and swallows hard.

"The Boss, he fights usually with two axes. He doesn't wear heavy armor, but he's mean. I've not seen him fight in battle since I've been here, but I have heard of many times that he has gone in to a complete rage."

His eyes dart around the room before he continues again. "The mercenaries, they're siblings, from what I've heard. Always fight together, never leave this place. Boss hired them after some of the guys got greedy and tried to steal from him. I don't trust them, their fighting is unlike anything I've ever seen"

Kaelan

I don't trust them, their fighting is unlike anything I've ever seen"

"How so?"

After the prisoners once again speak, Kaelan looks to the rest of the group. "We should move on before an alarm is sounded throughout the whole place. When we face the Boss, and his minions, I will go after the lizardman, he will not realize his is fighting a superior foe, until it is too late. This," he says tossing the alchemist's fire lightly in his hand, "is for him."
[sblock=ooc]How much time has passed, has the vigor healed me as much as possible?[/sblock]

 

[Pebele]

"How so?"

The man thinks for a second, then answers. "The way they move, it is somewhere between dancing and fighting. I have never seen people move like that before." The elf looks between Kaelan and Catherine. "Will you let us go now? We can run, please, if you let us."

[sblock=ooc]How much time has passed, has the vigor healed me as much as possible?[/sblock]

[sblock]It has been about 3 minutes since the end of the fight, so Kaelan has been healed as much as possible, yes.[/sblock]

 

[Yeoman]

"Will you let us go now? We can run, please, if you let us."

(In Dwarven, then Draconic) "I think we might be able to just let them go, there is no time to tie them up, or put them with the rest. It sounds like they don't dare tell their boss that they failed to stop us. If it's enough to put the fear of the Host into them, I'd say they'll be killed for screwing up. She pauses for a moment. These two mercenaries though...I'm not sure what to make of them."
