"I could not agree more. I will be right with you."[gm]The sentry in the watch tower beside the south gate yells information back to the catapulters. Arbrine and now Renyaveer can see that the second column of soldiers has formed up and is moving more quickly toward the gate.To Mekric's amazement, the couple commanding the catapult order everyone to move it backward, which is still difficult even though it is on wheels. Once it has been moved back about a pace, the blocking bar is adjusted downward, and the bucket is released. The stones fly outward in a higher arc and a shorter distance. It is obvious to Mekric that the Orngaddrin have practiced with this device. The small boulders catch the second column of soldier causing immense damage. Those who are hit are killed, out right. The others scatter off the trail for cover.The leader of this warparty screams vile profanities and more orders. The remaining columns of soldiers fan out off the trail to make their way forward through the boulder strewn incline.[/gm][gm]Renyaveer and the archer in the sentry post below both begin to fire arrows, sometimes hitting one of the soldiers. The leader has remained in the back to bark his orders.When some of the soldiers reach the eastern trail, they form up instinctively as per their training and quickly march toward the eastern gate only to be peppered with rocks from that catapult. The sentry in that tower also begins to fire his bow.At this point, the soldiers abandon their preconceived notions of attack and spread out through the rocks. The leader yells stupid curses at the Orngaddrin Village.[/gm]Suspecting that the Eastabin soldiers cannot speak Orngaddrin, the village elders voices his own dialogue to his people. He then moves to Nalvis and Rekyavik to speak in Eastabin. "If we allow the soldiers to remain out their until night some may be able to sneak into the city, or worse they may sneak away to return with a larger army. It looks as if we will be going out to meet them, after all."[gm]When he finishes speaking, the eastern gate is opened enough to allow people to exit one at a time.In the course of these actions, Arbrine realizes that due to the shape of the mountain and the manufacture of the sentry tower to merge with it, she should be able to jump outside without much risk of injury, should she so choose.[/gm][sblock=Character Data]Nalvis: full healthMekric: full healthAbrine: full healthRekyavik: full healthRenyaveer: full healthflint arrows: 0bone arrows: 9Quill: full healthjavelins: 5[/sblock][sblock=Group Inventory]Animals:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Lizard Skin: 60% & 40% cover</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Peccary Hide: 50% & 20% cover</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Sheep Hide: 10% & 30% cover</li> </ul>Minerals:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Slate: 1 rock: (sound x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Flint: 1 rock: (heat x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Heartstone: 1 stones: {+ Confluence}</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Coal: 2 lumps: (Heat x3)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Lodestone: 1 stone: (Shock x3)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Slickstone: 1 stone: (-Heat x3)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Yellow rock (Sulfur): 1 lump: ?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">bluish rock (Waterstone): 1 stone: ?</li> </ul>Ores:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Zinc: 18 ingots: {+ Health} (+Body x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Tin: 16 ingots: {+ Persona} (-Mind x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Lead: 4 ingots: (-Body x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Iron: 13 ingots: {+ Confluence} (+Body x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Copper: 1 ingot: {+ Persona} (Shock x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">dark metal (Nickel): 1 ingot: ?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">heavy metal (Manganese): 1 ingot: ?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">yellowish metal (Molybdenum): 1 ingot: ?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">dark metal (Palladium): 1 ingot: ?</li> </ul>Plants:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Muddle Leaves: 4 measures: (-Mind x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Soothe Leaves: 1 measures: (+Mind x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Rend Leaves: 1 measure: (-Body x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Mend: 1 measure: (+Body x2)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Muddle Flowers: 1 measure: (-Mind x3)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Soothe Flowers: 1 measure: (+Mind x3)</li> </ul>.[/sblock]</blockquote>
