Re: The Orc Invasion - Part 1
"Adaran has the portable hole, and I am sure he will be willing to hand it over as per our prior agreement." Kahan answers to his first question, bowing as the dwarf leader stands up. He knew their relationship would be... tested today, with them allowing Grung into their party and losing their 'Friend' card when Azaron left. Sitting down as offered, Kahan nods in response to being introduced to the new people, and replies, "I must thank you for being so willing to help us. We lost two of our members, Marcus and Draaz, and I have been unable to find anyone more skilled in healing to resurrect Draaz after my failed attempt, or to find the antidote to Marcus's poison. But enough about our problems. I know you are not pleased we lost two of your earthrocs. They were slain by a treacherous mage we found who had killed Prump as well.
"While we were inside the Temple, we collected what items we could and which we knew to be magical inside of the portable hole you loaned us. We also happened upon a treasure of sorts filled with magical weapons and gold. Sadly, lava was leaking inside of it and some of the weapons had been likely lost, along with some gold. We saved what we could with the time given. Also, we found Augmantium..." Kahan explained, lifting the ornate dragon box onto the table in front of him. "Inside is Augmantium, the gold dragon... statue. It has the power to dispel all magic that is in it's vicinity when it is outside of the box. All of our worn and carried equipment was disenchanted when Tarimar opened its chamber, much to our dismay. We were, however, able to slay the evil wizard, who fell into a pit of lava after two altercations. Azaron left us shortly after, using teleportation magic to go... somewhere else. Honestly I'm not sure where he went. There is, of course, more to the story, but I have summarized it to trim off the extra. Grizz here," he says, pointing to the large fisherman, "We found, poisoned. Luckily, we were able to save his life, but not that of his accomplice, Bernard. Grung aided us in the fight against Tarimar, so has more then proved his loyalty to us and, most importantly, to you."
