In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 961):

Make a land navigation roll, or IQ-6 to accurately gauge the distance.

The smoke is black, as if from green wood.

Balir observes the smoke, but is more interested in their immediate safety than he is something off in the distance.  Others were better at that.

[Private to GM: 17:32, Today: Secret Roll: Balir Ironhide rolled 14 using 3d6.  Balir PER 12.]

Who might be burning green wood and why I wonder?  Not likely the beast as green wood needs a constant fire to keep it burning.

He nocks an arrow, holding it and the bow in his left hand, the arrow grasped between his index and middle finger; he moves to see what is making the smoke, looking for a safe place some distance off that will let him see the spot.

Balir steps to the front, and travels along with Aethul, as stealthily as possible.  His axe is in hand and ready, as is his shield.

[Private to GM: He makes it exactly.
17:25, Today: Secret Roll: Balir Ironhide rolled 13 using 3d6.  Stealth 13.

Balir manages to move in a way that doesn't  sound too loud to something underground...

The others start moving over the slightly  scorched farmland.

"Chunky, why don't you travel in your element, and if you sense this creature underground, attack it from the side, so that it cannot attack you back directly. Fight it underground as a shark would fight a crocodile in the water..."

In reply to Kirpich Rockson (msg # 976):

As they go along, Kirpich begins praying for protection from the fiery breath. First for Chunky, then himself, then Balir, then Dionysus. When he comes to Aethul, he stops first and asks if he will help in fighting the creature if he is protected from it's fiery breath.

[Private to GM: Protection from Fire.
19:57, Today: Kirpich Rockson rolled 7 using 3d6.  Resist Fire - Chunky, skill 20
19:58, Today: Kirpich Rockson rolled 14 using 3d6.  Resist Fire - Kirpich, effective skill 19
19:58, Today: Kirpich Rockson rolled 8 using 3d6.  Resist Fire - Balir, effective skill 18
20:00, Today: Kirpich Rockson rolled 15 using 3d6.  Resist Fire - Dionysus, effective skill 17
20:01, Today: Kirpich Rockson rolled 9 using 3d6.  Resist Fire - Aethul, assuming he says he will fight the creature. Effective skill 16.

Total cost 4 fp.

He again Looks at Kirpich as if he is daft ... Ummm That's why I am going to scout this beast, to see how it can best be dispatched. I had already told you that it is an aberration.

Balir chuckles to himself.  "What you need is another good dwarf or two and this would already be over.  But, I can hold it up and hurt it, if you can but finish it off."

"You two have been quiet for so long I forgot about you. I can protect one of you, but not both. Marlene, do you know protection from Fire?"

He attempts to cast protection from fire on Snorri, but it does not work...

Kirpich tries again for Marlena, this time successful.

[Private to GM: Rolled 7 under effective skill of 15.]

"Unfortunately, I cannot protect Snorri. Does anyone want to go back to protect the woman? Or perhaps I can, maintaining the spells..."
