[QUOTE="Trouvere, post: 5149775, member: 37250"] Gildrim wakes from dark dreams to find his situation is much as he expected. Well, he didn't go down without a fight, and he's still not resigned to his fate now. The potion accepted from the bereaved storekeepers in Cragger's Rest restores him somewhat. As quietly as he can, he rises and crosses the lair, his old longsword whispering from its sheath. Or at least, murmuring. Though a halfling would laugh at his clumsy attempts at stealth, the hydra is well fed and sleeping just deeply enough that it doesn't stir. He takes his time, lines up the point, and drives the blade home into what he hopes is the huge beast's heart. The hydra shudders and dies instantly. Gildrim lets out a long held breath. "[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Nice try, ye baistaird,[/COLOR]" he snarls. There's no one around to decide whether he means the hydra, Grendath, or even someone else entirely. "[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Och, Richard, laddie, Ah'm sae sorry.[/COLOR]" Gildrim inspects the body, draws one of the young human's daggers and uses it to remove a finger. He carefully tucks the grisly memento away. With dwarven bloodymindedness towards burdens, he strips what he can from the body and loads himself up. "[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Mebbe thaur's a priest wha can....[/COLOR]" he says, patting the pocket where the finger is stowed. Then he sets off, following the tracks of the hydra back towards the scene of their battle. [SIZE="1"]OOC: CMW [URL="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2476088/"]2d8+3=10[/URL]; he's on 6 HP. Listen vs Move Silently [URL="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2476088/"]1d20+6-10=0; 1d20-5=4[/URL]. What do you know.
