[QUOTE="megamania, post: 2671990, member: 9255"] EBERRON 10/15/05 SEGMENT 136 “Cannon and Quickclaw” The Emerald Claw attack took place on the surface two days ago. The shifter has returned to the site and now seeks the only possible surviving member of the team- Cannon. The smell of the undead was better than this he thinks. It can be from only one thing. A Khyber Pit. He entered the underground maze of natural tunnels yesterday. These tunnels are from lime deposits that have eroded from underground rivers and spring spill-overs. Other tunnels are from the local Bulettes and Umber hulks that wander the earth in this region. Some are made by the druids and other forest humanoids looking for protection from the surface dwellers. He found where Cannon fell in about three hours ago. He fell into a deep crack in the earth that led to an underground dry river. The smells suggest creatures from Khyber. These could be simple aberrations to Beholders or Mindflayers. However, these smell of something worse. Fiends. Then he finally finds Cannon. The warforged in caught in a huge web. Looking at it, it is not a web like any spider he has seen before. This web has the touch of ....Khyber within it. Moving closer but so as to be hidden and silent the Shifter ranger looks to get a better view. He sees a large spider with a strange emblem or tattoo on its body. Details can not be made out as the creature’s bristles largely cover it. The spider seems to be studying the warforged warlock. Perhaps it has bitten him to poison him and waits for him to stop moving. If so, it has a long wait. Another spider appears through a glowing crack in the earth. It stops and looks at the caught warforged. It turns and faces the other spider as if to speak to it. Suddenly the one spider attacks the first one and tears it apart! Cannon takes this moment to stop feigning being poisoned and begins to thrash about within the web. Its actions are tearing the very webs free of the rock walls suspending him over the darkness. “Cannon- No!” And it tears free and falls into the darkness. Then Quickclaw realizes his mistake too late. The other spider has already begun climbing towards him. [/QUOTE]
