[QUOTE="megamania, post: 3924324, member: 9255"] UNDER A DARKSUN SEGMENT 156 “Enter Kaleb, Strum and Took” “Ahhh, wez been at this all day. Let say wez goes back have another tankard of Honey Ale.” Says the veteran of three Gulg / Nibenay wars. “It would be dishonorable to give up this soon friend Strum.” Replies the young warrior from Urik. “Shhhhh…. The beast’s lair can not be far away.” Answers the Gulg monster hunter. “Ahead of us are caves. The thunder lizard may live there. Ka-Chomp is hungry for it’s flesh.” “Ain’t wez taking this kinda too far Kaleb? I mean… a Behir is not something to just go and follow around in the durned forest to kill a day’s afternoon.” “Honor says we are to hunt down and kill the beast.” “Honor…?!? I thought it was forz the money!” “QUIET!” snarls the hunter. I saw something ahead of us. It was not the murderous beast but something else.” With a roll of Strum’s eyes, the three mercenaries slowly make their way to the caves at the base of a rocky cliff. Thick vines hang over much of it. Hundreds of flying bugs buzz here feeding on the collected moisture on the shaded rocks and collecting the nectar of the flowers here. Three cave openings can be seen from the base of the rocks where they stand. “Shoot. I forgot the ladda. Maybez I goes back and get one.” “Your head has been struck too many times by Datchi clubs. We climb. Use the vines. But remember- avoid the ones with pink and purple flowers. They have a grip of their own.” The nimble warrior known as Took quickly climbs the vines. He looks for dangers and most importantly- signs of the dangerous creature they were hired to locate and kill. Kaleb is next. His bulky shield and magical sword do little to slow him down. With a sigh and a scratch of his backside, the veteran begins to climb. “Something lives here. Something carnivorous. Mammal…. Maybe an ape. A rogue which means it is dangerous. A worthy foe perhaps.” The cave is not very deep but has two chambers. They look into one and find only droppings and a few bones. The other chamber…. A body. The body of a young woman. “ooooh! Let me checks for hers lifeblood a beatin’.” “Took is better at that. Watch for the creature should it return.” Says Kaleb with his sword and shield drawn. “just one feel…thatz all I wanted….” Mumbles the soft headed man as he walks to the front of the cave. “Is she alive?” “Yes. She was taken down by the local halflings. Strange that she is here.” “Yipes!” is heard from the entrance. “It’s a stinkin’ mutate of a beast!” Both Took and Kaleb turn and rush to Strum’s side. Cosa remains unconscience and vulnerable within the home of the jungle ape. [/QUOTE]
