[QUOTE="s@squ@tch, post: 4671993, member: 42885"] [b]Much like a phoenix rising from the ashes....[/b] As the warforged warriors blade and the talons of the druid find their mark in the blinded giant, he bellows out a dying wail. The two giants above ground, hear the sound and instantly decide to run away -- one runs to the north and quickly jumps into a canal and out of sight, while the other runs off to northwest heading for the jungle. A quick examination of the giant shows that besides some tattered hide armor, greatclub, the only other item of interest would be the bag tied to his belt. Inside you find a broken ceramic mask of some sort (sized for a giant), a worn ceramic idol, a pair of crude leather sandals, and what looks to be a opal tipped rod of wood. [d] aq[/d] Ganyon gathers everyone together and says[COLOR="Olive"],"Folla me - we got ta git ta da Teeth before nightfall."[/COLOR] With that he heads off to the south. The ruins are in such a state, that most of the time, you have no idea what the function of most buildings once were -- some show faded frescoes, where others show little beyond cracked marble or granite -- all items of value stripped off of walls and years of dirt and grime covering everything. You notice some recent pillaging by the areas where the dirt and grime have been sloppily wiped away or an outline in the dirt where something once lay. The group decides to head directly towards the Titan's Teeth, and makes its way through what appears to have been a huge outdoor plaza or market, evidenced from the large open area. On the eastern side of the plaza, you see a footbridge leading to the middle of the ruined city. Across another canal lies the base of the heart of the city, with both of the Teeth rising from the center. You approach the structure from the west, and circle around to the northern side, where you had seen what looked like an entryway from your earlier vantage point to the north. The entryway is surrounded by rubble and stone blocks that appear to have fallen from the tower above, as several of floors have gaps or missing portions of walls. Several sets of footprints in the dirt show you that there has been traffic into this building in recent times. Domoris surmises that both humanoid and larger than humanoids have trod on this very ground. The group walks towards the entryway, which at one time, must have been quite glorious, a roughly 40' tall archway, possibly 30-40' in width, with a double wide set of stairs leading up to it with what probably were plantings and fountains along each side. Now covered in rock and rubble, the passable width consists of 15-20' in the center. [COLOR="olive"]"Me mates wudda made camp in der - as all o' Tharashk make camp 'ere whin in da area."[/COLOR] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="DarkOrange"]OOC: OK, my maptools campaign file for this battle is corrupted, so I cannot update the file or even access it. Long story short, per DM fiat, this encounter is over. Giant in the stairwell is toast, the other two got away.[/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
