[QUOTE="megamania, post: 7247292, member: 9255"] THE HIDDEN: BEYOND NEW WATER 04 NEW WATER SEGMENT 127 “ A STRANGE STRANGER” 9/6/17 NYMM 23, 1000 Several hours ago…….. “What do we do with him?” asks the raider. “He may know more about this damned place. We need him alive.” “Rally about to start.” “Tie him up and put him in the shack.” One hour ago……. “oooohhhhhhh…… that hurt-hurt.” The summoner eyes his surrounding painfully. He looks around the tiny dark shed. He is alone….. his party killed…dead. But not alone. Never alone. Have friends. Make friends. Call friends. The air ripples as he waves his fingers about painfully and whispers a few words not arcane but old just the same. Powerful just the same. A few rats appear. Or are they rats? Two have blue eyes, one has five eyes that are red. Tentacles with drooling mouths grow from its hip. The tails have strange claw like appendages. As commanded, they come to their summoner and do as required. They nibble at the ropes and free him. “Thank you thank you little buddies Thank you trice.” He slowly gets up and opens the door a crack. He sees the raiders… all dead. Beyond the tall grass are three very large creatures and smaller ones moving defensively from them. “They need help. Many helps. Maybe my friends can help them.” Waving his arms again as he collects more power and chants once more in a strange and confusing language he calls up….. “Puppy, Doggie and Spot……. Friends- help the little ones. Hee……” A subtle glow opens up near the grass and through the portal comes three….. wolves (?). Each has multiple tentacles for heads and tails. Fleshy strands bounce and flop about as the wolves leap from somewhere other than here (Xoriat / Far Realms). The creatures leap at the Ogres. Ayru and Feldrix fear there is more dangers here. Perhaps a random encounter or worse- a surviving raider with arcane powers. The wolves distract the ogres as Tyson goes for his bow. Shaft, sword and tooth (?) strike the ogres until they fall. The wolves were destroyed and disappeared at the edge of the water. “Ugly dogs.” States the drugged changeling. “Not ugly- beautiful….. in their own ways.” Comes a voice from the dark. “Hello- my name is Ladepoer, Kyronael Ladepoer. Can you help me get home?” [/QUOTE]
