[QUOTE="megamania, post: 7402154, member: 9255"] THE HIDDEN: BEYOND NEW WATER 12 NEW TEAM ENTERS THE HIDDEN SEGMENT 197 ”THERE IS NO HOPE IN THE HIDDEN……” 04/15/18 RHAAN 10, 999 “Thor-ruck.” “Yes. I agree. It is not natural and may be dangerous. But that is why we are here.” “Thor-ruck” “Good idea. Let us get closer.” A very large frog leaps about from large mangroo root to mangroo root. The small trees grow up from the dark marshy water on exposed roots. On frog rides a small slender person. His fine and delicate facial features show great and growing concern. Something has happened to the swamp here. The pixie paladin, Cous-cous had a dream about this. A disturbing dream. The images were boxed in by slithering wet, even slimy, tentacles. It whispered to evil aberrations in the nearby village of Yrlag. Dol Arrah gave him the ability and strength to hear it…. To eavesdrop on it. Now he and his faithful stead- Thor-ruck, a giant frog, are investigating the dream and its dire implications. They cross the mangroo and then cross a wide stretch of tall grass. “Thor-ruck!” the mount croaks. “Yes….. we are near it. A trees are ahead of them then nothing. Dark but clear water spreads out before them. In the coming days the merchants and fishermen will call it “New Water”. Now, Cous-cous can only call it one thing…. An Abomination. BARRAKAS 15, 1000 Somewhere deep into the hidden, a mindflayer is within a large cavern chamber. Eerie blue light reveals crystals with images playing on them. “The Master of Hidden Secrets is pleased.” Comments a floating ball descending from high in the chamber to be revealed within the strange blue light. The Beholder’s name is Garrizon. “The key artifacts were retrieved. We have new test subjects also.” The mindflayer is silent as he watches the images. “I would hope but my expanding mind says to be cautious. There are forces still active within our home lands. Forces cgreat enough to stop him. Maybe stop his dreams.” The beholders tentacled eyes all droop in concern…. And fear. “Are you sure my brother?” “It is in our nature. Chaos. Not all of the players have been removed or revealed. The TRUTH yet hides from me.” “The Eternity Crystals you mean? You have watched them long into the week. It will mess with your mind.” “Perhaps…. But it reveals much to me.” “Such as?” “The first wave of the orcish druids. We saw them coming and dealt with them. However a new orc has arrived. He is related to the druids. There is no fear in him like the others.” “I can see to his death if you wish.” “He is not worth the energy but he is a problem. He will delay or aid others in ways I can not track.” “What else?
