The Lamentation of Lolth - Chapter III

[Majin]

It is beyond Sielwoodan's skill to determine which areas of the cavern are most used, if at all.

OOC: Manzanita - Drogo is able to wade through the water but will be unable to run or charge, and suffers the effects of being entangled because of his size. Everyone else cannot run or charge as well, but are tall enough to not suffer from entanglement.

 

[Manzanita]

Drogo

"This is terrible." Drogo mutters. "You know, if you gave me a day, I could dismiss Rex and summon a crocodile as my companion. I would miss Rex, but a croc would be much more useful in this venture. Perhaps we could rig up a little boat for me..."

Drogo keeps his eye out for driftwood, or something he could use to keep himself out of water enough to cast spells.

 

[Dhes]

Dunstand studies the two passages, and tries to determine the best course.
“I suggest taking the passage north, so we follow the flow of the water and hoop that we reach dryer ground. The northern passage is also smaller, so better defendable for who ever lives down here.
Although I normally try to avoid trouble, that is what we are down here to find.” He ads with a smile.

“Can’t some one not carry the master druid? I would offer to carry him my self, but if I’m to take the lead trough that small passage.”

ooc: I suggest Calenthang if we do decide to carry Drogo, he’s the strongest. Sorry Hippocrachus, ill try to keep the passé to a slow crawl.

 

[Verbatim]

"I do not wish for you to lose someone who has travelled with you for so long Drogo, perhaps we could go into town briefly to ask Mayor Trond for an empty barrell. We could cut it quickly and lower it down for you to use as a simple boat. However, if all wish to press on without any further delay, than seeking any path to higher ground would be in our best interest. Although, I do not look foward to the prospect of having to pass through such a narrow point when we know so little about our surroundings."

As Dunstand seemed ready to take the path that seemed the best suited to bring trouble to them, Ayden approached the man and spoke simply.

"I know that we have not spoken much, and for that I do apologize, but do not feel that you have anything to prove to us by taking a risk that could get yourself killed. We are all simple people who do what we can with what the gods have given us."

 

[hippocrachus]

OOC: Truthfully Dhes, I was going to offer to carry him. Calenthang was going to be in the back anyway; wouldn't want to get in the way of our competing scouts

"Nonsense, friend Ayden," Calenthang pipes in, "I would be more than willing to carry our little friend. That is, if he would have me do so," he adds with a smile towards Drogo, obviously not wanting to impose or forget the halfling's dignity.

 

[Manzanita]

Drogo

"We're a brave lot," he says with a smile. "It might be a good idea to go back & prepare ourselves more. If we run into trouble, we will have a terrible time escaping in this water. But perhaps a little more exploration at this point is warrented." He bows to Calethang. "Thank you very much for the offer. You'll have my gratitude."

 

[Seonaid]

Chastity was ready to offer her services, but the others seemed to have it covered, so she continues to stand silently, waiting.

 

[kirinke]

Teleri

Teleri smiled encouraging at Chasity, feeling the young woman discomfort.
" Do you have any suggestions?" she asked, trying to include the idealistic paladin into the conversation and alleviating her discomfort somewhat.

ooc:
The Sehahin clergy are basically guides/mediators from what i've read. So I'm going to try and play Teleri as close to that ideal as I can.

 

[Dhes]

Dunstand turns to Ayden clasping his shoulder, “Tank you for the words of trust, but I’m not trying to prove my self, well I don’t think I am. I just feel that I would be the best chouse if some dos have to take the point.”

Turning back to the rest of the group,
“Maybe me and the young elf can scout ahead for just a minute, making sure that we stay in ear shot of the party. Just to see what the passage hold.
And in the mean time, you guys can gather some of this free gold”. He sass with a grin (shining the light of the lamp over the waters surface, making the cold and silver at the bottom sparkle)

 

[Velmont]

"I second his suggestion. We'll scout a bit first." Sielwoodan wait for the others approval.
