"Stay and be punished for your crimes!" demanded Aremus, though he wasn't entirely clear of what crimes he was speaking.

He rushed toward her and lunged with his rapier. [roll0] for [roll1].

Tranio, on the ledge hight above the giants, watches as the Majordomo begins to dissipate into gaseous form -- first his fingertips appear to be blown away in the wind (but there is no wond) and then his hands, and as the death cleric sees a wickedly cruel grin of the giant escaping, the expression suddenly turns to horror, as time appears to reverse itself and the arms, hands, fingers coalesce back. Fistan's counterspell has been effective.

Tranio does not know if the giant continues in a weakened state, but feels it is best not to engage the Dragon (why oh why did Dren do so?).

OOC: Maintain concentration, if spell continues.
Attack: Chill touch [roll0] to hit. If successful, damage = [roll1], with no healing possible for a round.
Move out of sight of the dragon!

Carolina sees the giantess try to flee, and lets her readied bolt fly.

OOC: Attack vs. AC [roll0] for [roll1] plus [roll2] sneak attack damage.

The Majordomo's escape is foiled and she is now a sitting duck. The infamous goblin crossbow has finally found a target too big to miss and a lethal arrow strikes the giant's neck. The enemy staggers forward a few steps before falling over the edge, to the fields below.

The dragon roars as its master tumbles over the edge. ignoring the axe stabs delivered, and flies off after her.

"Are you alright. I mean, I know you're insane, but physically okay," the Prince asks Dren. "We need to get to cover before it comes back."

"Yes, I may have done an admirable job of hiding it, but that Dragon was downright terrifying." admitted Aremus, "Let's not be here if it returns. Do you need assistance to stand?"

This last he offered to the young giant, but he was unsure if he could do anything if the answer was affirmative.

Thirty feet above, Tranio's small head pokes out over the stonework, looking down.

"No death for us just yet, it seems." He makes a goofy smile. "Lead the way?" he asks the remaining giant.

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
"I doubt we will find anything small enough to hide in here." opines Ordrar "Unless you can regain control of your dragon, young one, we may be forced to kill it." he continues "If you can control this place, we could use being on the ground instead in the clouds. Do you know who Zephyros is?"

OOC: if the answer to that last is 'yes' follow up would be "What do you think of him?" (to save time in posting)

Dren sways a bit on his feet, but he was a dwarf, damn it! He would never just fall over like an elf!

“I’ll be foine, laddie. Jus’ need a wee breather,” Dren assured. Ribs were audibly grinding as he moved to rejoin the others, but with typical dwarf stoicism, he ignored the shooting pain.

Aremus took a look at Dren and said, "Let me help with that, friend. My mother is a healer and I know some if her tricks."

He put his hands on Dren's chest and a warmth flowed through the dwarf, knitting ribs and reducing swelling.

OOC: Lay on Hands. Though I admit I can't find where my resources are at. I have no idea how much I have left.

OOC: between stoic dwarf and the priest who doesn't heal, we'll have dead on our hands. What if someone drops and cannot ask? Does Tranio speeds them on their way? Tranio can read people...or Dren may be stoically grumbling...resolve it somehow :(

I don't recall having seen you use any, so you should have all 25. Just let me know how much you want to give.

Dren cracked his neck as Aremus healed him. “Thank’ee, lad,” he grunted. He wasn’t a hundred percent, but at least he wouldn’t fall over from a stiff elven sneeze. “Ye go’ a safe place t’ ‘ole up an’ rest a wee bit?” Dren asked the remaining giant. “‘ere in the temple, or in the castle?”

The young giant's face lights up when you mention Zephyros. "Yes, he served in our court. You've met him. So he's safely escaped then," the asks eagerly. "Yes, I have a magic orb that will allow me to land these clouds, but can you assure me that your forces won't attack? Oh, I'm Olthana by the way."

The prince would then lead you all past an astonished bound cultist, who was quite sure he'd never see any of you again, and into his room. The two stories of this regal chamber are decorated with delicate and beautiful furnishings, including gem-studded chandeliers and wind chimes, jeweled mirrors, and a bed frame created from wispy clouds.

"I'm sorry for all the suffering that has happened to Nightstone. Father is racing to "The Eye" and ordered me to plunder the settlement below. I refused and well...you saw what happened."

"I believe this belongs to you," the Prince would remark as he opened a large chest and pulled out The Nightstone!

"Allow me to fly back down to speak with the Abbot, and I am sure we can guarantee a peaceful welcome. I am sure we can find a fallow field that you can put the castle down in, and then you may speak with the Abbot yourself." Aremus told the young giant with enthusiastic conviction.

“Och, noo ain’t tha’ a foine piece o’ stone,” Dren commented as the prince pulled out the nightstone. “An’ why, exactly, did ye be wantin’ tha’ in the first place?” he asked. “Why be plunderin’ peaceful folk wot done ye nae ‘arm?”

OOC: Talk about quick leveling :)


"Why people anywhere wage war. There is someone pushing for something that cannot be obtained without violence. Or there is some religious angle as Zephyros indicated. Olthana, I'll tell you what I said to Zephyros. Fly our banner and you will not be attacked by humans, but you need to ward yourself better against intrusion. Go find Zephyros, there is safety in numbers."

Ordrar thinks for the moment.
"We could use your temple as scouting platform and then bring valuable intelligence to the town. Did you notice any effect of the Nightstone on your dragon?"

Tranio makes his way down, and follows the young giant. As he passes a window, he considers the ground below, passing him by at what seems an incredible speed. He is happy to be alive.
