The Retrievers - Chapter 2

[Mimic]

Reinn Aasimar Warmage 1st 8/8

Reinn glances over towards Sten giving him a odd look. He was never one to give that much faith in the gods, sure they were real and all but having that much trust in any one thing, even a god will eventually get you into trouble.

Reinn will also approach the bridge, looking for any signs as to why it is there.

"Aye Sten, most fortuitious. Let's check it out." Mindal looks for any sign of life or a posible ambush.

"If it is as old as it looks then the reason it was built may have long since disappeared. Just because it seems pointless now, doesn't mean it was pointless then," Pemberton scratches the end of his nose, "Who would built such a thing as a trap? Use it as one maybe. It may even be an illusion. Let's check it out, but beware."

Chapter 3 - continuing the March

Slowly approaching the bridge you do not see anythign amiss. You are somewhat amazed at the stonework and have not seen the likes of it anywhere. Discussing it amongst the group you can surmise that not even the dwarves could match the quality of the work before you. You can not believe your eyes as you stand at the edge of the bridge but it looks like the road part of it consists of one solid piece of stone that is at least 10 feet thick. The walls of the bridge stick up about 4' and are made of different colored rock with what looks like streaks of some other color strewn through it. A little puff of dust floats up as the first person steps on the bridge and the sound accompaning this step is defaintely not the sound you would expect walking on stone. Wiping the dust of ages from the surface you can see that the road of the bridge is not made of stone at all but what looks to be mithril. The entire road of the bridge is a solid piece of mithril and several of you fall to the ground speechless at the wealth lying at your feet. Upon closer examintation of the walls you can see that it is also made out of mithril with veisn of adamantine working into it.

Who on Oerth could have built such a marvel and why here?

Barely containing the urge to start hacking chunks off the bridge, Mindal suggest the cross. "I don't know why its here, but lets use it. No point in telling anyone about it, they wouldn't believe us anyway."

 

[Mimic]

"Wow," is all Reinn exclaims as he kneels and examines the mithril bridge closer. "You could purchase a half the world with this... what is it doing here?"

 

[Erekose13]

"This is incredible. Such masterful work its almost hard to believe it exists. We should take note of its location, I bet our employer would like to see this." says Sten as he sets out across the mithril bridge.

 

[Wilphe]

"If is still here despite the ages then I am sure it must be warded and protected. So don't mess with it. Okay, let's cross in pairs. I still don't don't trust this thing. Someone go scout the far side, I'll get the others and horses brought up.

"I'll go first, who's with me?"

 

[Erekose13]

"I am." says Sten stepping forward, eager to feel the mithril and adamantine structure beneath his boots.
