OOC: +2 STR mighty composite longbow?! YUMMY! :cool: :p

IC:
Teleri coughed, trying to figure out a way to explain the sword's rather unique properties. Hellfires... she curses to herself.

"I doubt that anyone will be able to really identify this sword. Not unless she chooses to let you." she said dryly. "From what she has told me, her name is Princess Dror StormArmour. In life, she was a dwarven princess who fought by her father's side. When she died in battle, her father had his daughter's soul imbued in this sword. And, though she is not exactly ahhh impressed with me, she decided to let me wield her," she told the others, smiling again, almost self-mockingly.

"I personally have no real idea as to what abilities she may possess. I do know she can communicate with me and from what my parents have told me, such swords are fairly powerful, but the bearer can only use the abilities the sword-spirit deems the bearer is worthy of handling at the time."

OoC: Verbatim - Of course theres a Smithy, Trond's old shop, now headed up by his old apprentice. ;)

Here are the remaining items, ID'd by Mother Grundy. If the party attempts to have her ID the Teleri's sword she can not tell much else besides that it is magical and intelligent. The sword can even hide it's powers from her. ;)

Items:

Short Sword +1
Leather Armor +1
Lenses - Eyes of the Eagle
Steel Flask - Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds
Bag of Dust - Dust of Disappearance (1 application)
Container of Ointment - Keoghtom's Ointment (2 applications)
Potion - Potion of Bull's Strength
Vial - Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds

Breakfast is served for those who ordered. :)
 


OoC: Lol, well I'm sure the sword would have exchanged some choice words with Ms. Grundy just for kicks, and you can bet the good witch has the good sense to not daly with it longer than absolutely necessary. ;)

"OK. We're really got to find something nice to give Mother Grundy before we leave this town. She's done some real service for us. Anyway. Now that we've identified and divied up all the loot, let's get back to it! I'll have Rex stand guard outside the well. Hopefully we won't find anything else dangerous down there, but we do need to check, just in case. Dunathor, are you still up for going first? I can drop a lighted rock down in front of you."
 

Teleri smiled at the eager halfling. "If you could wait a moment, I need to get a few things," she said, going back to her room and dropping off her old bow she decided to carry only a piece of chalk, a healing kit, her holy symbol (and a hidden spare), StormArmour, her new bow and quiverfull of arrows. To that, she added a flask of water and a small packet of food in a belt pouch. Then she went down to rejoin the others. (as far as equipment goes anyway). "Is everyone ready?" she asked, grinning lightly.

The party descends into the well once again and after a few more hours of careful sweeps, is unable to find any sign of further life.
 

Teleri grins sheepishly at the others as they exit the well. "I guess it was a wild goose chase after all. Sorry guys," she said, looking apologetic. "We can at least tell the new mayor that the tunnels under the town are relatively clean now."

She brightens visibly now that they are out of those tunnels. "Maybe we can have that nice little chat with the mayor. If you guys have any further questions to ask him?" she asked the others, leaving it open ended.

Sorry.... She told the sword. You were right this time. But I had to make sure that it was at least clean before we left. And when we speak with the new mayor, I'm going to suggest he do a periodic sweap of the place just to make sure that nothing with 'teeth' takes up residence there. It's just too... Convienent a place for creatures to hide. she finished grimly.

"Yes. I think talking to Applebottom is our next step. Assuming he doens't reveal any other dire threats, I think we've done a really good job here."
