[Unbounded World:The Aeterian Expedition] (Now With New And Improved Amulets!)

[hafrogman]

Teppic looks rather shocked at the revelation that Zevac offers.

"I see you imply that Harus has managed to escape the inevitable fate of the mortal races. Strange things are indeed afoot in the lands these days. Nevertheless, my companions and I may be capable of inflicting more damage than even you realize. I intend to find the root of these occurances and I shall not let anything stand in the way of my duty. Now is your chance to share what information that you have with me. We have a silver fiend, and murdered dragons. We have a nomad lord bound by a long dead pharoah. We have lost children and we have a loyal guard who has been returned to us as a deadly enemy. Perhaps if you share your knowledge with me, all of our problems may be averted. So tell me, what do you know of these things?"

 

[Kalanyr]

Zavac grins and the grin shows altogether to much tooth.

"The silver fiend is the work of your precious Pharaoh. I did not know the Guardian's had met their end, they were good company, even if we did disagree on many things. The Pharaoh is in his temple-tomb, where he has been for the past millenia, slowly gathering what he needs to court the favour of his true master. The children are not the first to be taken. I know nothing of your guard. "

 

[hafrogman]

Teppic nods to the answers provided.

"Very well. My companions and I journey in the morning to meet the silver fiend and it's master too must meet with a reckoning. The tomb is our destination and there we shall learn of our fates. Thank you for the information that you have provided."

 

[Kalanyr]

Zavac shakes her head.

"I do not think we will be leaving so easily. If you will agree to free my Lord, when the opportunity presents it self, we will depart. "

 

[hafrogman]

Now it is Teppic's turn to shake his head.

"I will do what I can to free your lord, but I can make no promises without seeing the circumstances for myself."

 

[Kalanyr]

Zavac pauses, and then finally nods.

"That is acceptable, your word means less to you than ours do to us in any case. May the heat of day not trouble you, nor the chill of night and may the rising waters not take you. "

She and her companions then depart.

OOC - You gain 2040 XP each, apart from Skor who gains 2880 XP.

 

[hafrogman]

Teppic scowls again at the retreating back of the nomad woman. She seemed to take great pleasure in insulting everything he held dear in his life, from his god to his own honor. Still, she had proven useful in her way. He returned to Skor and the tent.

"Sorry to have woken you for nothing Skor, but we did let you sleep through most of your watch after all. You can return to sleep if you wish, but it will be time to wake again soon."

 

[Kalanyr]

Teppic:

Spoiler

As Teppic approaches Skor, he notices a strange scaly symbol that resembles a crocodile on Skor's forehead.

Skor:

Spoiler

As Teppic approaches you, you can see a strange symbol on his forehead that resembles a crocodile.

 

[hafrogman]

Teppic stares at Skor's forehead for a second.

"I think I was right. Whatever we have, it's spreading. More symbols are appearing. You have a new one on your forehead. It's very different from the symbol on our hands, but I think we should check the others."

 

[Ferrix]

Lochan sleeps on.
