Re: Prelude – The Glass Tower (The Kennel)
Porto continues singing, and although he knows this fight isn’t over yet, he truly wishes it was. Noticing another area here where he could help without having to put himself into too much danger, the fat halfling slowly makes his way over to stand behind Roth. He takes out his wand and gives the injured elf a quick tap, hoping to rejuvenate his fighting ability.
Roth feels the healing effects of the halflings wand. With a grin beginning to form on his handsome features, the lithe elf tumbles with great skill around the Stone Keeper Stan had just tried to knock sense into. With amazing speed and accuracy, Roth buries his rapier deep into the man’s back! The barbarian’s eyes grow wide as he notices the business end protrude from his chest.
After changing positions slightly, Shirok keeps up his assault against the prone man lying before him. His spear tip digs deep into the man, and forces him to cry out in pain.
Despite his grievous wound, the fourth Stone Keeper turns to face Roth, wanting only to rid himself of the creature responsible for possibly mortally wounding him. He swings his hammer with all his remaining might, but misses the slippery elf once again. After such a mighty swing of his heavy hammer, the man collapses to the floor.
Momentarily disengaging, Ilsa quickly climbs up the inverted staircase and finds her footing in the room above. The seal of House Del’margo adorns the ceiling in this room. The slashed canvas of a beautiful portrait is on the floor, partially buried amid a heap of shattered furniture. The western half of the room has collapsed, leaving a solid wall of dirt and stone. There is a half-open door to the east, through which a strange, sibilant chanting can be heard.
The figure of a heavy muscled man can be seen slouching against the wall beside the doorway. Ilsa can make out two quarrels jutting from the man’s stomach, and he appears deathly pale; but still alive.
Like his compatriot before him, the second Stone Keeper attempts the foolhardy task of standing back up while being surrounded by enemies. Shirok raises his spear again and slams it down on the foolish man, this time finally killing him.
