[Sealed Lands] The City of Taleas

[Kalanyr]

The little creature sighs (Zone of Truth Triggers Now!)
"Not meaningful. Down to business now I suppose. Let me explain a little to you, about a millenia ago, a Great Seal was set over this land, it keeps out the magic that flows in from the other planes, in particular the spirit world, from which our ancestors hailed. Without it, there is a limit on power that humans can achieve and for us, we lose a large part of our base nature, I'm sure your halfling friend knows of what I speak. We wish to undo the Seal. I suppose you've seen a change in maps or some such ? The Seal is weakening it is losing its ability to hide its existance. Isn't it Child of Rock ? We wish to take advantage of this and release the power of magic, we wish to be free of the overwhelming bond to do this world. "

 

[DanielJ]

"why should we trust you?" after all you had me captive.

 

[Kalanyr]

"Ask the Servant, he knows that I can speak no lie. We apologise for you abduction but we needed assurance we could speak safely with these people. You were just a conveniently placed. It is unwise to camp alone. "

 

[Festy_Dog]

"The Seal is weakening it is losing its ability to hide its existance. Isn't it Child of Rock?"

"It's 'Child of Stone', goblin," Argus says gruffly, crossing his arms and looking menacingly at the goblin.

 

[Serpenteye]

"Who set this seal, and for what reason?"

 

[Kalanyr]

"Our legends say it was a group of spellcasters of great power including a dwarf and a human, it was set to stop any who may have possessed the power to challenge them from ever walking this land, we believe though that they sealed themselves out as well."

 

[Inez Hull]

"What else then is released back into the lands, those who originally set the seal? If Aeter has not claimed them yet then they would be abominations, long lived unnaturally. It seems you dabble in lore you know little of goblin."

 

[Kalanyr]

"Perhaps you are correct, if the belief is correct the dwarf at least almost certainly would still endure. They live until forceably returned to the rock they claim kindred too. Given your understanding of the lore then I am free to move on directly to the matter at hand then? "

 

[Serpenteye]

Dekiran smiles inwardly as he considers the possibilities that their new-found knowledge could bring. The strengthening of magic would almost certainly benefit himself, even as it empowered others, and maybe there would be additional advantages in being at ground zero when the barrier is lowered. As the only arcanist in the group he might be able to take a part of the energy into himself... Or he might be ripped apart for trying.
The matter was not quite that simple, though. The goblins still held many secrets to themselves, and their agenda was surely not completely idealistic. They could be lying, whatever the cleric's borrowed power told him. And he would never know for sure until it was already too late. The power could be more malevolent than they admitted. It was tempting, though. Undeniably.

"Yes, please continue."

remember Dekiran, who that is greedy falls and when he does he falls along way, do not let the greed of comman man guide you nor possess you for it is within this lust that people meet thier end eventually.
