Re: Sandbox
Mara-Kai immediately speaks up, "I'll go first and then the others can give their account individually."
Arowyn looks like he was going to speak, but stops himself when Mara speaks. He shrugs and nods.
Mara-Kai says, "I was wandering through the woods, on my way to your kingdom in fact, when I heard a scream. There were some hobgoblins... three of them. And each had their own pet wolf. The wolves were tearing a young human girl to pieces while the hobgoblins cheered. I thought I was alone, so I hesitated, thinking I would be hopelessly outnumbered. But this young lady..." she presents Bethany, "Bethany bravely came from nowhere and demanded the hobgoblins not harm the girl. Just a second later, this man" she presents Arowyn, "Arowyn came out and also demanded they stop. Then I saw him cause winds to obey his commands. The hobgoblins were scared and attacked, apparently able to see all of us at that point. They hurt Bethany and Arowyn very badly. Then this one" she displays Lucky, "Lucky came out, summoned a ghost, and healed the two. The ghost seemed to be the one giving orders. I took the wolves while the others handled the hobgoblins. Bethany nearly destroyed the hobgoblin leader with some giant beam of light. Back and forth it went, my allies frequently knocking at death's door, but we finished the wolves the the hobgoblins got too scared. So they fled. Arowyn assured us he could track them, so we rested and some... plant-like kids, with green skin, grass for hair and leaves for ears, came to help the now-dead human girl. From there, we tracked the hobgoblins, who didn't look too good. We finished them, but were careful not to kill them so we could question them. Once they were restrained, we asked them why they were here, torturing a girl. Even while they tried to defy us, they accidentally admitted they were working for the leader of the Savage Hand, scouting the area for him. He then told us what the Savage Hand is; a vast army of goblinoids. He didn't know exactly what it was his boss sent him out to scout for. Just observe and report, I guess. He then told us where the boss is; Up the stream and to the west, hidden in the tall grass. So we returned to the plant kids and reported. They said they'd warn the people of the forest and gave us deer to ride here to send word to you."
The watersoul genasi pauses, her hair flowing like a waterfall and her natural TRON lines glowing as she looks her allies over then back to the king. "That's my synopsis."
