Turmoil in the Golden Ring--A Slavic-themed game in the cold (IC Thread)

Misha nods. "We'll go there, then. What's the fasters way?"

OOC: If he knows the way or it's obvious, he'll ride there directly.

Burian shifts his bow around until it is in easy reach. "We had best hurry. we are already considerably behind"
 

Stanislava

Stanislava concurs with Micar "Da, let us make haste. My blade is hungry for some blood". Stanislava tells Ivan to hold on tight.

OOC; Yes, Ivan is on my horse with me. Sorry for that Snafu. lost in the Cybersmog for a wee bit.
 

Cholodny, Viking Fighter/Barbarian

After half an hour riding on half a saddle, Cholodny waits - but does not yet move to dismount. The feeling between his cheeks tells him he will not be returning to this position soon.

I need to get my own damn horse.

On horseback, your approach the church in only a few minutes. It's dark, so your vision is poor. . The meadow is large and flat, and is criss-crossed by the meandering Nerl River.

The Church is on a small hill next to the river. It is very small and modest. There is a small building nearby that you would guess is the priest's home.

You are currently about 200 yards frin the Church. There is moonlight, so you can see but dimly.

OOC: Please indicate if you are using a light source other than the moonlight. Also, post any other action or precautions as you approach the church. I'll assume the marching order is the same unless you post otherwise.


Here's a picture of hte church. However, the water is a bit lower, and it's night time, with a very light snow cover. Also, you're approaching from the opposite side. There is a visible path to the church.

If the moonlight is strong enough for Misha to see the church and soroundings he doesn't waste his time on further light. If not, he will light up a lantern and hold it with one hand. At any rate he will slow a little and examine the soroundings as he approaches closer (scanning also with detect evil if possible), and will dismount at about 40 feet from the church (if he gets that far...)

Cholodny, Viking Fighter/Barbarian

Cholodny dismounts, then moves to the front of the area illuminated by Misha's lantern (or navigates by moonlight if Misha is doing the same). He grips his cherished +1 glaive, looking as well as he can for signs of danger. Before advancing, he ensures that he does not outpace the rest of the party.
 


Burian Slavochka Fighter/Druid

Burian slides off of damek and whispers "watch after the other horses my friend" He draws his bow and nocks an arrow before moving forward slightly behind and to the side of Misha and Cholodny, scanning the flanks for signs of ambush.

OOC: Spot at +5; Listen at +3

Stanislava

Stanislava dismounts. Unsheathes her Bastard Sword and follows in the rear. She will use the moonlight, having gotten use to it after tredding Siberia many a night to avoid pesky humans and the like. She ponders if Ivan will get a horse or not. Not much of a way to travel on two legs in a region such as this.
