Allustan examined the glyphs Ehrune discovered in the Cairn; he didn’t know what they meant, but guessed that they were personal glyphs.It was about this time that Ehrune attempted to recover his magic ring and things took a turn for the weird.The swashbuckling mage met with Ferros to discuss the terms of the ring's return to its rightful owner. Ferros demanded 500 gp as payment for his services, which seemed like an awful lot of money for an awful little amount of service. Ehrune said he’d think on it, but would like to hold the ring until the matter was settled. Ferros looked at him like he was nuts and began walking from Allustan’s back to his pad. Etherik, who had just been walking up the path at that moment and saw that the ring was still on Ferros’s finger, decided that if Ferros was dead it would be pretty easy to get the ring back. So he hit him with an eldritch blast. At this point several jaws dropped around the game table. Wait, what just happened? Did this minor encounter suddenly turn into a Player vs. Player combat? Did it just get brought?!Etherik and Ferros attacked each other relentlessly, eldritch blast versus one-hand-wielded bastard sword, with a few magic missiles thrown in the mix by Ehrune. It looked bad for both of them, with the next successful hit likely to drop the other, when Allustan finally appeared and declared the fight a draw with a deep slumber spell (yeah, half-elves are technically immune, but we forgot). The local sheriff and his men arrested Etherik and off to jail he and Ferros went. As they were being arrested, Ferros looked to Etherik and solemnly vowed that the next time they met, he would kill him. Etherik just wrote Ferros’s name on his list of ‘people to whom I hold a grudge and must eventually destroy’ (the list is starting to grow long, as he is much better at making enemies than destroying them).Of course, its pretty hard to contain a warlock that can blast through metal bars (given time), create darkness at will, and climb like a spider. The point being, he escaped the jail and became an official ‘escaped criminal’. This turn of events would have lasting repercussions.</blockquote>
