[QUOTE="Buggles, post: 8158234, member: 7028617"] OK guys I think I pretty much got this all figured out. [I][B]“Tell Wildroot that you wish to join the pact of flame, resist the urge to burn the woodsman to the ground- he will set you to your task. Discover the last ancestor, she that lives under the cover of darkness- the hag will have the answers. When the hands move the end will have begun. WAIT! For the pale dwarf without a face to beg you- only then should you take the ghost home.”[/B][/I] Seems straightforward enough. Don't kill the woodsman, got it. I know of two hags - the old woman with the barbarian tribe, and my dear Aunt Ingrid, an actual hag rather than an ageist slur. Now the first one, we don't have her address and I'm not sure what the postal service in Faerun is like but I doubt a letter addressed to 'Old Crone, Mad Pony Tribe, Somewhere Up North' is going to get there. So I'll check with Ingrid but it might be another Hag we haven't met yet. I wonder if either of our wizards can send a message across the miles to her? [B][I]story he told us about the man and the crocodile[/I][/B] I reckon this this about lizardmen, just a hunch based on my itchy lizardman slaying blade, Mongoose, which really hasn't had a decent outing yet. A deal was done, they made peace with them, and regretted it ever since. [I][B]Know then that Ashardalon is abroad[/B][/I] There's a dragon coming. It might be here already, Erky seems to think so but he's prone to tall tales. [I][B]Check the ancient alchemist’s well[/B][/I] As soon as we find it, I'll dive straight down it. [I][B]Seek the witch’s tor, In the lair of the drowned ones, But beware the demon’s spore. Find the time. Return again with the star fall, To reclaim the power.[/B][/I] So obvious I won't even elaborate. [B]When three-and-a-half bells sound, Put one hundred crowns, On the one with the big nose.[/B] Sounds like a horse race to me. When we find ourselves at one, put 100gp on Schnorbits, got it. [I][B]The answer you seek [Golcanz looks directly at Buggles] is at the bottom of the Goblin’s stair/stare.[/B][/I] Righto, bottom of the goblin stair, got it. Must be something to do with Gwen. [B][I]The hands are within one thousand teeth[/I][/B] Clearly just nonsense, the raving of a mad spirit. [B][I]Stand fast between the dead and the storm. When the worst comes call upon me, And I will send a God’s favour. Look to the sea, to see, the sea-change.[/I][/B] OK its a beach fight, call on old Garumn when it looks bad, got it. [B][I]Stand in the surf- call my name, when you need me most.[/I][/B] Vinnie's mad turtle friend, OK that's another ally for the beach battle. That just about wraps it up, aside from a possible meeting with Ashardalon, the small elfy version. I might not get invited to that. [/QUOTE]
