Remnants of the Horde-Flight from Aruth

Hearing the loud crash back the way they came, Forlash turns in time to see Bargo scream in rage and charge through the door.Well thats entertaining.... He thinks to himself and moves over to where the other ogre had charged into the room, Looking in he notes Bargo attacking furnitureWell....looks like we'll be set for firewood for a while Not that I'm making comments, but aren't we going for the Quiet approach? Looking back up the hallway to make sure that these loud noises (or should I say minor explosions of rage?) have not alerted our foes. He also reaches within his robes, StatingPerhaps I'll see if anyone is trying to see whom has come a'knocking Pulling out a scroll he reads and feels the air come alive with sensations...

OOC: Casting Detect Scying

OOC: this casting is dependant on if there is nothing coming at us, of course....:)

To Forlash's suprise, there is no Scry watchng your group, as far as he can tell. Odd, Aunt Rulaga should have been watching
by now...
 

Bargo gives a satisfied snort, kicks the chunks of the chair, and ducks his shoulder back into the hall. He guffaws at all the empty rooms and kicks in the next door, fully expecting it to be empty as well.
 

Lucky we are so far, yess. My "auntie" still is not paying too much attention to us yet....She must'nt be too worried...and that worries me just a little...hmmmm Forlash grimaces as Bargo kickes in another door.....Interesting trap-finding technique....I would guess that is why the great generals allow ogres too lead the front line... Forlash thinks to himself

OOC: the detect scrying stays active for 24hrs....(not that it will help that much:(
 

"Maybe she not watch because we not far enough to make her worry."

The words were almost barked out, quietly, under Kurg's breath. This hag obviously had plenty of servants and magic to throw at them. These could very well have been the lowest pawns in her forces, not worthy of being watched.
 

Wekerak shakes his head,

"If raiders in your tribe, you always worry. Stupid not to. Food go missing if ignore." he jerks his head at Forlash, "Him not stupid, though maybe greedy: like lion who fill his belly while jackals still around. Hag not stupid either, or we not be needed, yes?"
 

Turning to the Gnoll and Goblen Forlash smiles While we have only just entered into this domicile as you stated Kurg, and my aunt probably is not too worried about whoever enters her house, I dofind it a bit strange that we have not attracted a little of her attention, as anyone who entered my mothers house with savage intent was known of immediatly,but then again this is one of her lesser siblings. I would feel better knowing when we have attracted her attention, instead of it being a surprise.
 

The Hallway stretched, it seemed, into Infinity. How many doors might there be? Forlash knew that these Huts could be huge. Indeed, he had grown up in one, a perilous place where all sorts of creatures might dwell. Where would the Ogre deem that they next go, eh?
 

No doors in the rooms, more doors down the Hall With No End. It was enough to make Durgo very angry! He hefts his maul, plants his rear foot, twists his body, and brings the entire force to bear against the nearest wall. If the Hall couldn't take him where he needed to go, he would make a way there.

OOC: 2d6+47 to the wall in the hall.
 

OoC: ? Hehe...

IC: Durgo, fuelled by his frustration at the endless 'not-killing-of-the-Hag', hauls off and smacks the Wall <58HP>, causing a piece of the upper wall to break off and hit Bargo on the head < 1HP subdual after DR>.

Bargo yells out in retort, then quiets suddenly, his gaze down the Hall a sign of something not right .

Standing some 50 feet away, in the curling mists of the Hallway's corridors is a figure all in blackened Plate, a huge figure some 13' tall and immensely wide, easily dwarfing Durgo or Bargo. A Fire Giant.

The Knight stands calmly in the center of the corridor, leaning on a massive Greatsword, a red cloak hanging off of the back of his armor by chains wrought of adamantium. The Knight's Helm bears the visage of a Fiend of some sort, unrecognizable to all save Kurg and Forlash<who know it as a Pit Fiend>. The Giant also bore, upon his cloak, a brooch showing a volcano enshrouded by massive wings, as if some Fiend or Dragon was wrapped about it's mighty peak. the symbol of Iron King Kregga, a Northern King, one reputed to be a Devil himself.

The Knight says in a strangely hollow voice 'If you are quite down with childish displays of force, Ogre, stand aside for your Betters.I would abide the stench of Zuregath's Pawns in my nostrils no longer.'
The way that he said Ogre was evidently disrespectful, as Durgo or Bargo might say Goblin (truth be told, Bargo often said goblin in the same way that others said sandwich, but that is beside the point).
