[QUOTE="Urko, post: 2663726, member: 30822"] [b]An unusual fellow[/b] While the bickering women work on clambering out of the hole, the rest of the party continues to regard the stranger with bemusement. He pats the tree reasuringly (although it's far from clear whether he or the tree is intended to be the one reassured). [color=sandybrown]"They say they're travelers, but travelers are in between folk. Yes, they are."[/color] He nods, as if confirming a great truth. [color=sandybrown]"But at either end, they are something else. In the before. In the after. What are these?"[/color] He backs partway around the tree when Matilda emerges. [color=sandybrown]"No five fingers come here. Almost never. Only three and four. Why do they come?"[/color] Dargin and Eff Flat notice that he seems to be doing...well, it's not clear what, but the arm that is out of sight behind the tree is moving around, possibly rummaging around for something. [color=silver][size=1]Both Matilda and Sanae avoided any unpleasant effects from the spiders. Sanae will need to make one more nausea check before she makes it out.[/size][/color] [/QUOTE]
