For Jaroth
[sblock]1. The book falls into enemy hands and darkness consumes all
2. The book remains hidden and the dark and light engage in a war that last over 100 years.
3. The book is taken by the light and a new holy war is called for.
4. The book falls into the hands of the fey and the racial wars begin once again as both the dark and light try to take it by force of arms.
5. The book becomes lost and all is left to chance.
6. The book is destroyed and all is lost.

Yes you can level up[/sblock]
 

OCC: What is the third rune?


With the dark forces withdrawel, a fesitve but cautious spirit takes hold of the plainsmen and their somewhat reserved demeanor is broken with the occaisonaly laugh and smile. Women are soon seen cooking with men butchering several cattel as if preparing for a feast.
 

Bertrand

Ordering his men to lend a hand any way they can with the feast Bertrand asks that the others join him for a brief discussion. "I like this not at all. If their object was the book why depart? I can think of only three reasons, there is another threat or prize they have chosen to address, it is a ruse intended to lull us into complacency or there is some decent in their own ranks. The first two we can address by effective scouting, observation or divination. The third we can only address by learning more about them. I would suggest we parley with our hosts again and see what else they might know about the enemy. Perhaps Jarroth's friends can tell us more as well. If any of you have heretofore untapped resources of knowledge or information now is the time to call upon them."

OOC: Did Bertrand learn anything from examining the positions recently abandoned by the enemy?
 

Jaroth

Having communicated with the Book and using his druidic magicks to divine the threads of probability that lay before him, he sets his jaw, having made up his mind.

Putting the book back in teh satchel and slinging it once again over his shoulder, Jaroth rises and departs the tent.

Once outside, he approaches the others, Bertrand, Anniston and Vadric, Finnian and Vorian. A grim but determined look is on his face. We are at a crossroads. And I have determined my course. I would like to meet with you to discuss it and to offer you the opportunity to join me on my journey. Let's meet in the tent in five minutes.
 


Vadric raises an eyebrow at Jaroth's words, but says nothing. His only response is a nod, confirming that he will meet the druid in the tent in a few minutes.
 

Jaroth

ooc: Yeah, heheh. Just moving things along :D

SUPER SECRET FOR DM ONLY....NO PEEKING!!!
[sblock] Is there some deep, dark place in The Four Lands in which nobody dares tread for fear of live and limb or their immortal soul, someplace so scary or so desolate, that nobody would ever go there? And under that place, is there some locale, so sturdy, so protected, so rooted in the earth that it would withstand the strongest earthquake? If so, does Jaroth know of it by myth or rumor? If so, what is the name of that place? [/sblock]
 


Vorian untapped resources

Vorian nods "We'll be there."


Distancing himself from others he calls softly and sounds his whistle summoning Arrwuh.
Arrwuh, come back please.
Do you see some solution for neutralizing the book. Can you confer with others of your kind? Is there anything on this world that you know of capable of destroying or protecting the book from evil hands? Is there some lost temple in some remote region of the world or powerful guardian bound to location that you know of and that our people lost knowledge of.

Or is there a way that several of us use combination of your dispel evil or banishment along with Jaroth's and Anniston spells or some ritual we could attempt even if it requires exotic components.


OOC: Arrwuh has Knowledge (arcana) +12; all others knowledges at +11
OOC: additional hints? hint hint ;):p
