[QUOTE="Eccles, post: 3171980, member: 5675"] The three of us lay in the darkened temple to an evil god, gradually recovering from our cuts and injuries and wondering what was to be done about Niccoli’s blindness. Hours passed when there came a sudden loud banging at the heavy front doors. Arrows were nocked to bows, and Niccoli was placed where he could do the most damage without having to move from place to place. The door banged again, far heavier this time, and a deep voice bellowed out “let us in”, cracking and going shrill before the last word. Very carefully, we allowed the door to open a couple of inches, and saw a pair of scruffy mine workers beyond. One was simply average. Average height, build, hair and facial features. The other was anything but, standing nearly seven feet tall whilst barefoot, huge muscles bulging under thick green skin, the hulking half-orc must have weighed an easy 400 pounds; most of it muscle. The massive figure was topped with a small head, grinning widely with a slightly vacant expression on its face. “Hello,” smiled the hulking monstrosity. “Me is Igmut. Igmut bring friend to help.” We rushed to push the door closed, but the huge half orc easily pushed it wide open with one hand, allowing the other figure into the temple. This man gestured, and his features rippled strangely and he began to change. His face and torso began to stretch, hair thinning and receding as he grew in height to show a tall, gaunt man with sunken eyes who looked a little familiar. “My name is Endo. Endo Sevestarian. I believe that my brother is somewhere in this building, and I am here to bring him back. Our mother wishes to have words with him about the owl-bear he brought home.” Hearing these words, Flynne and I glanced at one another nervously. I tried to think of something to say; some way of breaking the news to this man that his brother was dead. Before I could find the words, however, massive green fingers latched around my skull tightly. “Pretty man hurt,” announced Igmut cheerfully. “Igmut and Kord help pretty man.” From the scalp down, healing energies flooded through my system. My head was released as the hulking form of Igmut turned to treat Niccoli to the same restorative magics. Igmut then began to pick through the items on the floor around us, snagging a greataxe and a number of items from Torvig’s pack. Behind me, Endo picked up Morgan’s body and left the room with it, complete with the spellbook into which I had just finished inscribing Morgan’s second eulogy. [/QUOTE]
