OOC: By no measure am I claiming Astrid to be Benevolent...

"Why... Wrenn,.. Do they truly deserve what we did?"...

Hiroshi whispers something to Wrenn...
Wrenn says, "... If the situation had been reversed... Let's gather it all and return home."
A quick pass though the remainder of the upper floors reveals indication that other rooms had been temporarily occupied, possibly even by the same Shimadow clan. Whoever was not much on cleaning up after themselves."Perhaps. Oh well, no point dwelling in the past. Home sounds good...

Hiroshi and Wrenn... attempt to... throw... (leeching) their lifeforce.
It is basically a reflex action to grab the spider and throw it; but to mystically add heat, Oorvid thinks about as he grabs hold.Astrid... heat... grabs...

... Astrid... sends a stone... in the direction... spider.
Wrenn... search of his spider... make sure that it is dead... retrieve the carcass... medicinal can be done for his bite and help the others if possible... examine the spider...
Oorvid smiles at Astrid's display. "I think I hate skunks more."... look for his spider... first tend his wound...

The Storyteller smiles and gives one of those "old people" gestures that means patience, slow down, your off on the wrong foot, etc, all at the same time. "I would never discourage exploration, Wrenn. I advise caution. Being able to walk away with the cache you currently hold is a mark of wisdom. I am encouraging that."Wrenn replies, "... I think that exploring those tunnels..."
The Storyteller smiles and laughs, lightly and gestures grandiosely as he speaks. "It does not work that way. Even if I can tell you something magical or mystical or special of those item, unless you can recognize it yourself, you cannot make any use of it. It is a type of integration. Think of it like swimming. You can move your arms around all you want; but until you can get into the water, you are not really learning to swim."Hiroshi nods...: "..., can you tell us what these things do?..."
The Storyteller shakes his head and raises one eyebrow before smiling again. "Having such talent would not allow you to divine any such information from me; but having such talent, it is logical to deduce. A word of caution, unwanted expression of such a talent is exactly the opposite of the power in that talent. In other words, you will sense nothing from sentient beings with more power than you. You four are yet fledging practitioners dipping a toe in the vast ocean of possibility."Astrid sits. "Of course he has the gift..."
The Storyteller waves his hand in a gesture of it was nothing. "I am afraid there is not much story there. The War of Heaven came to a head and changed everything. The Yahdram were no more and the land was altered. The world was reset to a nomadic age; although, a valuable lesson or two is in here. I am sure."Astrid ... asking "Why were the keeps abandoned?..."
