The Reconquista OOC

So that would be part of the plan, it's not like Mavic would be terribly upset if he lost a horse at the expense of a bunch of giants and gnolls. :D

No, but Anastasia Horseyheart might be :)

Maybe - but Mavic wouldn't consider that part. *shrug* Greater good and all that, and inviting all the young fools you know to take part in something foolish and damn the consequences. :D

Speaking of light horse massacre - I'm not certain it'd be possible to extract the horses from the trap. It's not the sort of mission you'd want to take your favourite mount on, because it's got even less chance of making it back alive than you do...!

Summoned horses don't die. ;)

During the last months, the adventurers probably got to know each other a bit better, and they often worked together or at least in the same region. Having learned, that they can trust each other, it was just natural for them to stay together as a group.

When they were in the Stark mounds, Latalya often wandered into Oytwood, it was good to be among elves for some time, and to reflect over everything that has happened in the last years in the tranquil woods.

On one occasion, a troop of skirmishers and scouts was attacked and inflicted by the Tuskbearers. One of the Sisters of Righteous Vengeance, who at this point were still unknown to our side, had observed the battle and came to bring the news as an act of friendship and also offered to help (hoping to fulfill their own agenda this way). Sadly, there was little they could do for the inflicted allies, lacking the healing herbs or magic to cure them, so a force had to be send in to kill them all before they gave away too much of their plans, once transformed into werecreatures themselves. The Sisters were part of this force, as they are not susceptible to lycanthropy. This act sealed the alliance with them and they gladly helped with gathering intelligence afterwards and with hit-and-run strikes against the giants' forces.

Latalya was with the strike team to enter the keep, while the dragon distracted the guards. She planted a Suggestion into the mind of the head of the guard, a Stone Giant, and made him order the guards to open the gate to pursuit the dragon, while the allied troops were hidden outside. Once the giants realized the trick, it was too late and the strike team inside was already attacking them from behind while the main force outside headed for the gates and inside the keep to smash them.

A hill giant would be an even better target, but I suppose the head of the guard would be one of the tougher guys. ;)

It's roughly a 50% chance to work, that should be fairly reasonable to work. :)
