[QUOTE="El Jefe, post: 2286109, member: 19990"] Oirhandir was stunned. [Spoiler]"By all that is holy",[/spoiler] he murmured in Elvish. He stared silently for a moment. [COLOR=Green][B]"That -- little --"[/B][/COLOR] (he paused as he practically spat out the word) [COLOR=Green][B]"[I]lizard[/I] was trying to lure people to its lair!"[/B][/COLOR] His eyes widened in horror as he recalled the suit of plate mail that Rogier was carrying. Pointing at it, he continued, [COLOR=Green][B]"For all we know, the previous owner of that suit was lured here just as we were, may his bones rest in peace."[/B][/COLOR] It was all becoming clear now...the parchment with the references that couldn't be found in the archives, the attack by the viper horde at the old mill, the mysterious ease at which their secret had spread throughout Orussus, the "otter like" creature Oirhandir had noticed swimming in the Roars, maybe even the attack by the crocodile...that [I]thing[/I] had been behind all of them. The gall! It had actually tracked them back to Orussus to spread it's false tale to get them to return as quickly as possible. Oirhandir marvled. If it could cause such mischief at such a young age, thank the gods they had killed it before it had gotten larger! The elf thought a little more.
