The Gamesmaster:
Tarrian reaches the alleyway just seconds before the warehouse doors are smashed open. You hear a cry of "There! They're going through the hole!" behind you but by this point you are already running...
Moments later you reach a crossroads. To the south the alley continues - glancing down you can make out ships rigging so it must open out into the docks. To the the north it curves round a corner out of sight. In front of you a door stands, slightly ajar... a pungent smell emenates from within.
The sound of footsteps behind you is getting very loud...
Using some techniques she had picked up from Mannath. The female Barbarian managed to shake off her pursuers. Doubling back, she manage to reach the palace without further incident. She wondered how her companions were fareing in their subterrain journey through the sewers. There was one thing she knew for sure. They wouldn't be coming out of it, smelling like a rose!
An such was the case when they arrived back at the palace. Actually they smelled somewhat like the stuff you use to fertilize a rose with. Tarrian was glad to see that they where all in one piece. But it was all she could do, to keep from laughing in their faces. She had to quickly excuse herself and run to the stables so as to be away from them. Beginning to laugh so hard that she had bagan have tears running down her face and her sides began to ached. So much so, that she wasn't looking where she was going. When a stableboy, leading a horse came around the corner. She was brushed up against by the horses's body and knocked off balance and into a large pile of horse manure. Which made her laugh even more.
'The Gods have a funny way of balancing the scales, don't they!'
When she compose herself, Tarrian ran to rejoin the others in using the bathhouse. Latter on heading to the 'Parrot in a Cage' Inn where they were staying. To have a hearty meal, over which they would discuss their next move.
