  The Priest will look at the items and test them if Justin wishes...

In reply to Justin (msg # 107):

Thanking the priest. Being symbols of an evil deity, he feels there is no need to test them, suggesting they best be destroyed.

"Indeed she does. I do have some rules most people don't have, but I'm sure I can...be of value. Would you like to discuss it now, or later?"

But there's still a few things to go over.

  Kree's  smile waivers only  a moment,   Good Dras and I , need to speak with the HAlf Ogre...once that talk is done, we will return to the Inn...we will see you there..I am certain...

  One of the guards  come running down and shouts,..Quickshadow? They require your....experiste.

  Kree grins, as he truens  and waves to the guard,..what say you Dras..who goes first..you or I?...I have a dull knife that would  work pretty well...

Hmmmmm. If he goes with Kree, he might want to...

"I'll see you at the inn, then."

Rayna went that way, and he can learn more on the way.

Dras didn't say nothing, she only gave Kree a pat on the shoulder and a wink before running off towards where the guard came from.

She turned around holding her mug up in the air. "You coming?"

  Kree makes his way across the Square. to the path that leads to his cabin...he stops for a moment to see if the totem is right, he allows the two sages on duty to take a swig of  the wine.

  Near the Totem, the Two Slavers who were collared..where chained to a post, while awaiting whatever ruling was going to come down..One of them hails Kree,you?...I had to  work for them, lest they take my own family as slaves.... hhis voice   was pleading..the other  slave just looked at Kree.

  The Elf  said, in a cold tone,..So?  YOu chose to ruin other people's lives, so that your family would nto suffer?..Where do yhou think your wife is..right now? or your children?..most likely , pleasuring the very person who hired you...you made your choice....now..you pay for it...I feel no sorrow for you...

  The man cried out in anguish as he thought  about his family, Kree, smile. grew  just a bit, as he headed up the path.

After a peaceful nights rest Justin rose for his regular predawn devotions; once these were completed he gave additional thanks to Eta  Following this he undertook his training regimen, bathed, dressed and ventured forth to meet the others at the gate before first light.

Good morrow all, such beith another fine day in whicheth to renderth praise unto Eta

Luthien was also up in the morning. He did his devotions, then warmed up for the day. There would be heavy fighting today. He slept in the Temple of course.

He also told Father Bragn that Commander Kree had agreed to at least TRY the charm strategy. He knew if he told the priest before he prayed for spells, he could be ready for Luthien's great 'no torture' experiment.

His mount was also ready to go, and he was bathed, shaved, and dressed by the time he arrived.

"The Hunt begins. Only my lady knows how it ends."

  Kree stood by a  small fire that the guards  used to ward off  the early morining  chill. He was speaking to Nara who had a  leather sacthel by her  feet. she was going on about something...Kree was just nodding his head as he was taking arrows  out of a crate, and  looking at the fletchings and the  arrowheads...putting some in his  quiver, and some off to the side...

Luthien was surprised to see nobody else brought a horse.

They must not be suited for this kind of work, so he takes his horse back to the temple and ties it up.

While used to hunting, this Hunt is different, and he must trust to the experience of those who've done it.

Rayna came out of the inn looking well rested, she had spent most of the night listening to Ivy tell his stories and just enjoyed his company til he passed out in her room. She was shaking her head with a smile as she mad her way towards the group. She gave them a smile and bows to them before checking her supplies. She had a small hand size book tied to her belt next to her dagger on her right hip, and a small pouch of materials next to her money purse on her left. She wore the new golden and emerald crested arrow clipped to her cloak. "Your cousin is still passed asleep in my room at the in Lord Kree." She tells him with the smile again. "He seems to like telling his tales doesn't he?"

  Kree looked Up A Rayna, and Nara  frowned  a bit, looking the elf-mage Up and down.

  Nara?  Please  to send one of your guards to Get Ivy?....And they need not be overly gentle...

  Nara's  Green eyes narrow a bit  and she nods to a Human at the Gate, the fellow sprints to the Inn.

 ..so he told you tales?  Good Lady...I hope  he did not overly bore you...

.. a good  10 minutes later Ivy, a bit  cleaned up   and  dragging his  pack and Quiver His bow on his shoulder... He Looks at teh Human  guard who has a smirk on his face,..Really..Cousin? I would have caught up with you?

 ..Then...Dear Cousin...i have saved you some  exertion....thus...yuou will be able to  ply the Good  Lady with more stoires.... he motions to the crate,Pick out  a fresh 24 , be fore we leave...

  Ivy frowns  as he   walks over to the   crate, Kree was shouldering his  Quiver, Nara  looked at Ivy and  shook her head,one of these  days, Kree? Your cousin will get you killed...

 ...he still stands  as the second best archer in the Village....

 Ivy holds  UP his hand,..Best archer...Cousin...

  Kree gives him a playful whack  on the head  as he walks by,..against targets..Aye..but when it comes to brining Death?..You are  short , but not  by much...

  He looks towards the Village, awaiting the others.

"What, or who, do we expect to be hunting? I will do better if I know what I'm up against, and what tactics they're likely to use."

After all, nobody hunts stag without having a fairly good idea about how a stag will react in any given circumstance.

In reply to gate (msg # 120):

Justin looks around the group who appear to all, less Drasius, Rolf and Garme, be here Shall we press on Captain Kree

Drasius came out of her cabin wearing her black leathers and spider silk cloak. Her face was covered by a wrap of thin spider silk to prevent any exposure to the sun. While in this outfit, it seemed that Dras remained quiet. She wouldn't greet anyone of the group say for a nod to any who said anything to her. Dras made her way next to Kree and leaned on a tree with her arms crossed.

 ...as we start out, Our  Goal is to reach ironmound  and  gety one opf the smaller ships  we have taken. we wil sail down to Olant, and there,,we  we travel up the Furman's Chain..to see the nest of slavers there. They should not be too hard to find, the Towns of the  Furman's Chain are allied  with Ironmound...

      He points  Northward and says,However, we  will be  crossing  the Grasslands  as we travel, so one might not know, what one will run into. Should  we  find  and odd group of Bandits, and the like, we  will break off to hunt hem down...we never pass up at chance to cut some dark folk from the lands of the living...

 we will give the others  a few more  Minutes, then be off....

"Understood. I'll request a debrief on standard tactics and how teamwork among your unit usually goes on the way."

Luthien expects the team to work as a fairly organized unit, and his request for a debrief reflects that.

Rolf comes in from the far side of the village.  He'd gotten up early and had spent some time on the skirts of the village, wanting a bit of time to himself before coming back for good meal.  Geared up and ready to head out, he catches Kree's briefing on where they're headed.  "Any catfolk in the Furman's Chain area?" he asks bluntly.

  ..Unkown, Good Rolf...But the Catfolk fight toooth and nail for dominance of the grasslands....I would bet there would be some with the slavers...but ..i cannot  say for certain.

"Shall we depart, then?"

It seemed they still waited for someone.

Rayna shook her head at Luthien. "The short one still has not come up from his slumber." She looked over to Dras then to Kree as he spoke. All these new people she will be traveling all seemed so familiar to her, like seeing a dream come to pass. Even the very spot she stood was familiar to her.
