(RP) Dangerous Legacy

[Tor L'Tha]

Rak walks over to the camp fire siting down and opening his belt pouch. He inspects the found nail carefully. Showing it to them who want to try appraise it.

"who do not all rush into the direction of suspicious noises."

"Yes Sel, you are right.", says Sonrik, "Alas, we were blinded in the night, and thought more of our own safety than our foodstores. Next time I shall remember that we are charged with more than our own bedrolls." Sonrik's watch is almost upon him, and he dons his armor and boils a pot of water for the morning. When others start to awaken in the morning, he will begin his daily prayers to The Twins.

Liam looks off in the direction of the fleeing kobolds, and with a final shake of his head, begins his watch with Sonrik.

The rest of the watches go smoothly and uneventfully. The next morn comes with the sun peeking into the sky, though still hidden behind the eastern mountains. Krueger gets up and restocks the fire and throws on a pot of coffee, whose aroma soon fill the air.

Various ones of the group get up and begin their morning chores... though, the halfling, Gemble, isn't one of them and seems to snore more quietly to attract less attention to himself. Jaeden goes over the belongings of the dead kobolds and finds in the pockets of them are the EXACT same kinds of "nails" as found the previous night. Two of them have five hash marks on the side, while 3 have only two cut marks and the bulk of them have four. There are 22 of them in all and still no one knows what their significance are. Though one of the kobolds had most of the 22 in his pocket.

"Maybe they are for a game." Jaeden suggests doubtfully.

 

[Tonguez]

"Or payment" Erlik grimaces, the nights grime is washed away in the river though he still has the kobold head tied to his belt. "who knows what you lowlanders use for trade"
Ignoring the coffee, which he has never taken a liking to he takes his morning meal washed down with water and then readies himself to leave. As he does he avoids contact with the priestess even averting his eyes from her should she come into view

"so we cross the stream and keep going now?" he asks the the dwarf "and maintain our watch for theifing kobolds and whatever else may be waiting ahead of us"

"so we cross the stream and keep going now?"

"Perhaps we should cross now and get away from this army. We can recross when we get closer to Bobbit.", adds Sonrik, "Thouugh I admit, I know not what lies on the other banks in these dark times." Sonrik is helping Krueger repack the cart, and quite early, is ready to go, with his pack firmly strapped to his back. He approaches Gemble and gently shakes him awake, saying, "There's coffee ready, brother." Though Sonrik doesn't drink the stuff, he certainly apprecieates it's effect on others.

 

[Ashy]

During the wee morning hours, Ala has stumbled, bleary eyed, to the water's edge. She stands there alone, silently, staring into the stil water...

 

[Vendetta]

Gemble gets up, half asleep, and staggers over to get a cup of coffee for himself.

[Knight Otu]

After a short meal and a few training steps with his rapier, Sel'Tarien steps up to Ala, and whispers in Elven:
