May not use it too often given time zone differences. GM: Ack. Thanks this does not replace the great work or list you did for years. Just figure a new resource. As to time that doesn't matter. The channels for text are see anytime. So you visit when needed. I think your the only one to not come in yet. But optional my friend. Not required. -------------------------------------------------------------------- [New Stuff] [Ma 3rd, 1636TH] [Time: 5:05 am – Besam, Eastern Lands] Dorhak makes this decision quickly, for two reasons. He speaks the common language the best, plus, he's responsible for his crew. Any penalty awaiting is his alone to endure. In Marentian, he says, "I’ll be going with them. Raddok! Will you hang onto my gear (sword, shield, and throwing axe), please?" It’s more of an order. "Z’leyra! Keep these miscreants in line while I am gone. If you don’t hear from me in, um". He turns to Gnorf and asks in Dwarf Elder "how long will we be before I can report back to my crew?" Gnorf shrugs, “depends on fast you talk. The Elder is inquisitive so may have a lot of questions. I'd say 20 minutes to an hour?” Back to Z’leyra and Marentian "if you don’t hear back from me in two hours, then figure out a plan. Preferably one that assumes I’m still alive and includes coming to get me. Make sure you keep a guard up and don’t let them surprise you. I have no idea how this is gonna go." Dorhak sighs as he glances at Arawn. The one who fled to a pirate ship and gets captured. The one he threatened not to get next time. Now the captain wants rescue. Dorhak figures Arawn will have an opinion on that. Raddok takes Dorhak's shield & weapons & sets them at his feet for the moment. He can carry the weapons if they move, but Dorhak's shield would have to be attached to his own - a bit awkward, even if do-able. Then again, they were supposed to remain here & might surely be being watched. He's tempted to just sit down & rest, but feels uncertain in this new place. Raddok looks around, as the others are doing. He feels they should be doing something so tosses a couple suggestions to Z'leyra to find what she & the others might be thinking. "Would this be a good time for some quick naps? Half can stand watch & the rest sleep a half-hour, then we can switch places. If not, how about some food & water? I'll help stand 1st watch, if you want. A short walk out around this spot might be useful." He then grinned. "I'd rather not have to carry all Dorhak's weapons though. I'm strong, but they're heavy, and I dare not leave any behind." He laughed, amused at himself. He then reached for his pack's side pouch, pulling out a slightly dirty cloth, and begins to wipe down all the weapons he is now carrying, including the shields. back again to Gnorf and Dwarf Elder Dorhak speaks, "Shall we? Wouldn’t want that ale to get too warm, now, would we?" Gnorf waves 2 Besamar over. He nods and one pats Dorhak down. “What’s with the r ed anyways?” Gnorf asks as he waits. Once checked Gnorf waves the 2 to follow Dorhak behind. He speaks a few words in his Besamar language and glances at 2 more of his allies and speaks more words. As Gnorf leads Dorhak into village with 2 escorts the other 2 take the raider horses into camp. Gnorf stops at a campfire and checks a casket and pours himself some ale. He grunts, “got warm! Now the sun will warm it more...best during the night cool down.” He grunts and places the mug on the barrel. He leads Dorhak to a large hut of wood and thatch. He raises a hand and tells Dorhak to wait. He then enters the hut after asking permission. Dorhak watches around as the horses are taken to the side and gear unloaded. A couple villagers search the bags and probably dicker on new loot? One examines the horses to see how fit they are. [Time: 5:17 am – Besam, Eastern Lands] Gnorf finally exits and waves Dorhak entry. Dorhak enters the dark hut and wonders if this elder will be wearing a loin cloth as well. Before Gnorf closes the door and leaves he whispers, “we are healers. I notice your group has wounds if you need help?” Then he closes the door. Dorhak takes a few seconds to adjust to the darkness. Then notices a being stir in the corner. A candle is then lit and the captain sees a non-bearded dwarf. This one does have a few gray hairs but is definitely older than the ones outside. “I am Burl Oakenheart. Step forward so I can get better look. Why the red ?We in this land aren't..as colorful. Gnorf tells me your story. But I want to hear it in your words. How you got here. The dealing with the dead man. The raiders and this stolen item. What makes the item so special you come here for?” Dorhak cringes inwardly on the book. Why it was even mentioned? Outside Fremea considers flying to the hut to listen in or stay to watch the party. By now the villager guards have entered the village. While two stand watching the party they go about their business. Some see Gnorf greet a couple female Besamar. These wear flowers in hair and like the men wearing loin cloths wear only a leather or cloth bikini suit. Some of the villages are slightly obese and Dorhak figures they are lazy but maybe this is their way. The elder sits up and grabs a mug of tea. He goes to stoke the now coal fire pit to get some fire going. “If you satisfy me your group will be allowed in the village. We will deal with things after.” The fire flares up as he places a bot of tea to warm up on a pole over the firepit. How this place doesn't burn down with all the fire and thatch is a wonder but also shows good craftsmanship of the fire pit to avoid blowback. Looking around Dorhak can tell the elder is a stone mason based on his tools and his hands. He can't tell if he is a rune master as little clues are around. The hut is small with bed, small table, cupboards and cabinets. The Elder moves to a rickety chair and motions for Dorhak to sit if he wants. He folds his hands on his lap and waits. A young female moves and carries a couple mugs and a bucket on her head. She moves to the party and offers water if needed. Raddok translates and wonders if the water is a trap? GM: Actions? Comments? Next update...Wednesday or Friday? GM: A short update needing mainly Dorhak's input. Will try to do update Wed or Fri depending on time. Thanks to all those who came to the Discord server its fun to see the new folks from the pnp list come in. The activity is also nice for a good start. Feel free to post and do stuff there on your own. GM: Damage Player Damage Barbosa 16+4+1+5 [Unclear fully, Revived] Unali 6 Raddok 1 [1 Healing] Arawn 5 Z'leyra 4
