"I have no idea at this point..but I would wager it involves both time and planar disruption or warping" deSion says.

The party is still within two days march of the stronghold of the plainsmen or the party could turn north east and try to find their own was to the Fortress of Balance.
 

Vadric and Anniston approach Betrand, Jaroth and deSion. "I am glad to see you all hale and healthy. Do any of you have an idea what happened? Was it related to the tome?" The knight-priest eyes deSion suspiciously as he asks his questions.
 

Vorian Tolgar

Vorian slowly makes his way toward the rest of the companions, occasionaly droping on his knees and checking for some sign of life among the dead.

He finally comes to the group.

"I'm glad you all survived. Does anyone has any idea what just happened?"
 

Finnian stops his whistling as the group gathers.

"I'm not sure we will ever be able to actually define what happened. The driving question now is what next?"
 

Jaroth

Jaroth looks to the sky, raises his arms and incants:

Eyes unfocused, voices fall, circling arms, raise a wall!

ooc: Jaroth cast private sanctum

Jaroth then looks at his companions, relieved that they have all survived their struggles. Despite the obvious signs of wear on each of them, indicative of their own battles, Jaroth smiles at each of them, satisfied with the knowledge that they can triumph through the adversity that their journey to the Fortress of Balance will require.

"I do not think we need follow the plainsmen. I can find the Fortress of Balance, given time and the appropriate ingredients. And given the nature and secrecy of our mission, I believe it best that we keep as few aware of it as possible."

"I have raised a protective barrier that will keep out prying eyes and ears, even those of a magical nature. Speak freely while we are thus protected."
 

Nodding to Jaroth as if in thanks...deSion prempts the others by saying..."I may be of assitance but should i share what I know then our friends of the light may well feel it is their duty to act in a forceful way...if they will vow to hold their anger and be at peace until we end this task then I will explain what i can. I say this not to anger you but in relazaition that some truths or theories often solicit a hostile and sometimes violent reaction from members in the light..and I do not wish to sow the seeds of confilct so that the book will use them at a time that ill befits us all..."
 

Vadric is blunt as he speaks. "I do not trust you, deSion. Nor do I like you. But I have commited myself to delivering the book to the Fortress of Balance. I will use all of my skill, and all of the power at my disposal to ensure that this happen." Vadric is grim as he stares at the man, a man that Vadric truly believes is evil at heart. "With that in mind, I will not raise a hand against you without provocation. But I shall keep my own counsel on what is "truth," and what is myth and theory."
