YS's Red Hand of Doom

[Yellow Sign]

It takes about 20 minutes of tough climbing through thick brush to reach the top of the hill. From the tree line you see a rocky clearing with a ruined old square keep in the center. You face the western wall and there is a large tower on the south west corner. It is about 30 yards from the treeline to the keep itself. You don't see any movement or hear anything out of the ordinary from where you are.

 

[Starman]

Gastarn looks around. "I think we should wait right here and watch this place for a few minutes. Just because it's quiet now doesn't mean it always is. If nothing changes, then we'll charge in in our usual manner."

 

[Yellow Sign]

The west wall is about 15 foot tall and 100 foot long and it is festooned with cracks, dents, and holes though it looks intact. The tower on the south west corner is about 25 foot tall. After watching for a couple of minutes you don't see anything.

 

[Rhun]

"Looks clear," says Vrogor after several minutes of watching the area. "We go now?" The half-orc is obviously excited at the prospect of exploring these old ruins.

 

[Starman]

Gastarn nods, grinning. The mage also looks forward to exploring the ruins. "Let's go."

 

[Rhun]

Vrogor grins and readies his blade, stepping out of the woods and into the clearing. He moves quickly across the open ground, and into the shadow of the keep's wall.

 

[Yellow Sign]

OOC: A small change. You are facing the western wall not the eastern one.

 

[Jdvn1]

ooc: could we have another small change? "there is a large tower on the west east corner."

 

[Yellow Sign]

ooc: could we have another small change? "there is a large tower on the west east corner."

ooc: done!

 

[Yellow Sign]

Vrogor grins and readies his blade, stepping out of the woods and into the clearing. He moves quickly across the open ground, and into the shadow of the keep's wall.

Vrogor moves quickly across the open ground around the keep and reaches the wall without incident. He looks and listens but only hears the normal sounds of the forest.
