Message: <blockquote data-quote="s@squ@tch" data-source="post: 4166085" data-attributes="member: 42885">"We best give 'im a propa' jungle burial."Ganyon pulls out a shovel from his pack and begins to dig a shallow grave.  After about 10 minutes of digging in the soft jungle soil he has excavated a trough large enough to fit the warlock's body.With the aid of the goliath, they put the man's torso and lower body into the grave, then go back and wrest the arms free of the dead ape-creature's grasp."Itsa been a while since I'd 'een a man torn'in two lik dat." Ganyon says as he shakes his head and places the arms back with the corpse.  He then covers Asenfel with the dirt.Ganyon turns to warforged wizard and says,"It be bad joojoo tah take a mans treasured items from 'im in the heart o' tah jungle -- I''ve 'eard many a tale 'bout curses and such."[D]aa[/D][sblock=Void]"Sssssuch impotent thoughts.  Do you not realize how long your people have sssserved my ilk?  Do you not remember that you owe your heritage to your Masssster'ssss?  Ssssuch imprudencccce will get in you trouble.  No matter how hard you try, you cannot hide from me -- even in the dark depths of the jungle.  Know that I can, and will, ressssstore you to your proper place at any time.""Perhapssss you will sssshow more resssspect once you are immerssssed within a sssspawing pool.""It is a sssshame your human friend could not keep himssssself together....."A dark chuckle fills your mind."I ssssure do hope the resssst of you are more entertaining......."[/sblock][D]aa[/D]The shifter/bird slowly leads the group off to the southwest, pausing from time to time in the low hanging branches while it waits for the earthbound travellers to catch up.  Not more than an hour or so goes by before you occasionally here something that sounds like a humanoid's voice.As you get closer to the source, the group begins to  vaguely make out singing in the distance. It sounds like a sailors sea shanty, to ward off the Devourer when passing through Shargon’s Teeth. The singer is off key and seems to have gotten a few words wrong.Oh I may go down....I may go dooowwwnnnBut let it not beeeee.....In the teeth of heeeee.....You then hear:[sblock=Dwarven]Fire my forge with cheap goblin coal, it is the same blasted tree.[/sblock]"Ye not be fool'n ol' Hudder wit' yer cheap tricks, those Tharask folk've done better tah've left some markers. Ain't sensibly gonna get any back-up if the back-up can't find 'em."From the sound of the creature, he hasn't not spotted or heard the group yet, but from the sound of the rustling tree branches, he is just on the other side of a thicket from you.OOC: Only Davan, Void and Darv are injured at this point.</blockquote>
