The Four Lands - The Great North

[J. Alexander]

The Cove

Approaching the bed, Anniston and Vadric see the boy from the ship, propped up on pillows laying in the bed. A carefull look shows that his chest is wrapped tightly in bandages with a faint trace of green and red stains around the right chest and side. To even an untrained eye he appears feverish and extremely pale.

"Well, this is interesting. What do you suggest we do with our young friend here? He could be a source of considerable information. Perhaps we could AirWalk him out of here along with the book."

"But that does raise an interesting question. Jaroth, I think you mentioned before that you could not sense the book. That might imply the use of some sort of arcane ward to hide the book. If the dark wizard uncloaked the book during our initial conversation, if he lifted the ward, then if there are others of his order nearby then they now have the ability to sense the book. This could be interpreted by them as a sort of emergency distress signal. If this is true, then they may be descending on our position as we speak."

[sblock=question of clarification]I assume that the Drakar cult "boy" we just killed (the one that was shape-changed to appear as the boy, but was actually some sort of creature) did in fact look like the boy from the ship (the same boy that is in the bed in front of us)? also, did the appearance of the boy change to its natural form after it was killed?[/sblock]

Clarification

Once the creatures were killed all thatwas left of them were empty robes which Jaroth too possession of. the party did not see any physical bodies. Thecreatrue that you fought in the living area did indeed look remarkably like the boy in front of you.

Vadric sheaths his weapon and moves to the buy's side, examining the extent of his wounds with a well-trained eye.

The Cove

Moving closer to the bed, the boy suddenly lurches forward and plants a big kiss on Vadric

okay back to reality

Moving closer to the bed, Vadric begins to examin the boy. It is obivious that he has suffered some type of sever wound to the chest region which from the pattern of blood stains on the bandanging apperars to be puncture wounds. Vsrious scars that are long healed can be seen about the boys body while around both wrists the skin is raw and inflamed.

OOC: Okay, maybe I'm way off base here, but do the wounds look like the flail and axe marks Bertrand inflicted on the seeming 'boy' in the other room. In other words could he have been somehow transfered to this bed by a contingency? All this magical stuff has Bertrand thinking crazy thoughts.

Jaroth responds: "Yes. But I have no means to mask its presence. It is a risk I will have to take until a council can be called. I will begin working on a way to mask the book, but it may take some time."

The Cove

The boy's upper torso is neatly bandaged so the type of weapon can not be discerned unless a party member removes the bandages.

occ: 1500 xp to the character who address the boy by his proper name

 

[Scotley]

Bertrand

"Can you hear me Morgan de Sion?"

OOC: Twas Bertrand that first learned his name after all...

 

[Rhun]

I couldn't find the name anywhere. LOL. Nice work, Scotley.


Vadric moves closer to the boy, to try to rouse him from his current state.
