"Well, once again, those who are arcanely-inclined get the shaft." Virashil says with a wink.
"Which one of you three want the breastplate? It would seem that you, Kirrg, are probably satisfied with your metal suit, and Jonathan has his wonderful enchanted bands.... Duroin, you might want to put this on instead of that enchanted chain shirt."
OOC: The mithral makes it light armor, so Duroin might be the best suited for the breastplate....

"Great fight everybody, thank for the timely healing once again Kirrg." Sir Jonathan wades into the deeper water and with Duroin's help begins to sift through the wreckage. His eyes brighten at the breastplate. "They goblins's have no loyalty, and no courage in battle either. Probably half of their number probably ran off when this beast emerged from the water. Serves them right," he says as he throws a hobgoblin body aside.
Later after they have hauled the armor from the water, he says with a wink at Virashil, "I should really get this armor cleaned, of course it would need to be taken off first. We need to find our damned scout though, I wonder where he wandered off to during all this ruccus."
"I agree Sir Jonathan says," while retrieving his sword from the bog, "Duroin should wear the armor, the chain shirt is too valuable to leave behind. Kirrg or I could sleep in it during the nights, should we be ambushed."
I was indeed worried after I took 20-some damage from AoO. The timely healing and the ray of enfeeblement changed the battle.

Day 3 cont.
Jorr shows up a bit miffed that the group is taking so long, but upon spying the Hydra carcass stops his chatising with a knowing shake of his head.
He informs the group that it is about two more hours walk and they should get there by Highfeast (Noon).
Jonathan needs to make a search check. Any preperations or anything you would like to do before leaving?

"Ahh, our prodigal guide has returned." She says with a teasing tone to her voice.
She closes her eyes, concentrates briefly, then suddenly, all of her images disappear. "There -- won't be needing them for awhile, I hope."
She turns to her companions,"That was yet another difficult battle. We each, in turn, did our parts to make the outcome successful. Kirrg, although you did not land a blow in this encounter, without you, we would have been defeated."
"What say you now, shall we press onward to the dreaded, haunted keep? We may not wish to assault it directly this day, but we could perhaps scout it out and size up the 'ghosts' we will face.

Once again, terrain has impacted our combat effectiveness, although with that thing getting all heads for AoO's, we weren't going to do much moving to begin with. Here's hoping that we get some good, solid, flat ground for some battles!
I agree -- good healing + the very effective Ray of Enfeeblement (that spellshard earned its keep today) made the combat turn to our favor.

Kirrg nods his head in agreement to Virashil's assessment of assaulting it this same day. "I would not be an effective healer if we raided the keep today. So I say we search and see what lies ahead before going forth tomorrow." He stands tall and stoic, watching the others and the woodsman Jorr.
I should clarify that while I as a player have no issues with how this last fight went, I am actually quite pleased, Kirrg would much rather be wading into battle alongside the others. But pout as he might, he knows where his ultimate strengths lie. That last fight was interesting and we got lucky by that ray of enfeeblement. Brilliant spell choice.

"I agree, we should look at the area surrounding the keep, scout any possible entrances, and then rest. We are in no shape to be raiding it right now. Hopefully they won't spot us as we approach. My elven tiger," he says with a crooked half-smile, "you can cloak Duroin with invisibility to have a quick look around today, yes?"
Where was that wagon again? Nat one. I can change my manuvers with five minutes of prayer. Should I change out Action before thought?(make a concentration check instead of a reflex save.)

At he others' direction, Duroin takes the mitrhal breastplate as his own, and spends a few minutes cleaning it as best he can with an old towel from his pack. He offers the chain shirt back to Sir Jonathon. "Thank you, my friend. With all of us armored thusly, we should prove much more difficult to harm in battle." The dwarf smiles. "Or such is my hope."
"We should continue on to the keep. Jorr and I can scout the place out, and we can decide how to proceed from there."
