Vrux, a Village cursed

[DarkMaster]

The soldier scarred by the Half-Giant brutality looks at Morrison nervously. "I never came to this camp before. If I would have known its location I would have tell Nadour."

Fror looks back at Calondor with a inquisitive look. "I beleive she does. At least the old elf who gave you the package. I don't know about you, but he seems to be well connected. I don't like this, I am under the impression that my picture will be on display in the streets of Axyr and that the number written below keeps on increasing He finishes laughing nervously.

 

[RillianPA]

"Who gave the orders to assign Nadour and you to this detail? And how many deliveries have you made?"

 

[DarkMaster]

"I don't know who assigns the order, I just listen to Nadour. I have been to Vrux more times than I can remember"

 

[Mithran]

"That is, hopefully, unlikely but not impossible." Calondor sighs "This was supposed to be such a simple mission, too."

 

[Legildur]

"Aye, simple indeed," Makas laments as he unconsciously runs his fingers through his beard. "My head spins from all the in-and-outs of what we have uncovered."

 

[DarkMaster]

Fror walks towards Morrison. "Anything valuable you got from him? We are discussing if we should go back to the capital or not, I beleive we shouldn't until we know what is really happening here but some in the group beleive otherwise, what's your opinion"

The gnome seems visibly conflicted on what should be the next best course of action.

Morrison walks with Fror back to the rest of the party, waiting for Rell if he chooses to come.

"Hmmm....

It appears that Nadour and these soldiers are soldiers in the Axyrian army. Nadour told the soldiers that they had all been assigned to help my church. The soldier doesnt know who gave the orders, but since Nadour wasn't arrested as a deserter, I have to assume that someone with authority gave the orders. The soldier says that he cant even count how many deliveries they have made, and that he suspected something was wrong, but that he was being paid extremely well and just ignored it. He also said that the deliveries were often made to the mine.

This means that there is a huge arsenal of weapons in Axyr under the control of these villains. More, they have the support of some people in authority in the capitol. I was assigned this task by the head of my church in the capitol. He may have assigned one of the least experienced members, and one from far away, as a test, or maybe because my loss would be acceptable. I really need to be able to talk to Jonah, my mentor.

Oh, thats right, the soldier also claimed that the town Mayor was running things, and that the witch follows his orders.

I'm not sure what we should do, but I think starting a large battle would be a mistake. I see only two options, we sneak back into town and capture or kill the Mayor and the witch, or we go back to the capitol.

However, there is a more immediate issue we need to deal with. Those assassins knew we were coming to Vrux, and attacked us almost as soon as we arrived. There must be at least one traitor in this camp who informed them we were coming. That traitor must be dealt with before we decide on our next move."

 

[Scotley]

Rell

"I agree with your assessment. We should make no plans until the traitor is found. I for one would like to know what is going on in that mine. It is very suspecious, but as you say, we need the informant first."

 

[Mithran]

"And how do you propose we do that. I doubt the culprit will come out and tell us."

 

[RillianPA]

"Whatever created those pictures of us must be magical. I suspect that a search of the camp using Detect Magic should turn something up."
