In reply to Kazimir Yurick (msg # 431):

Correction, Kazmir lops off the clutching hand, and Throg runs it through with his spear, killing it... again.

Aldous steps back up to the door to collect his lantern (again), and shines the light through the open door -- in part to check if there are more where that one came from.

"That one would've been easier to subdue and bring in animated, to our buyer...for $1,000! Let's remember that, before we ruin our shot at a small fortune, eh?"
Nana says ruefully.

"If there's any more..These things don't exactly grow on trees..."

"Are you okay, Lad?"
Kazimir hands Aldous his shoe.

"Мы должны обезопасить эту дверь, и вернуться лучше подготовлены. Уайты очень опасны! Их прикосновение само по себе смертельно опасно, и они могут разорвать человека на части. Мы бы хорошо получить некоторые освященные вещества, с которыми для борьбы с этой угрозой, надлежащего."

"Got 'way, tha'time."

Please to provide a translation; I  cannot cut and paste it into trsnslator.


The room beyond smells faintly of rot.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 439):

Translated:
We need to secure this door and get back better prepared. Wights are very dangerous! Their touch is deadly in itself, and they can tear a person apart. We would be good to get some consecrated substances with which to combat this threat appropriately.

"I was able to do some damage to it, I think. If we could find a way to trap it, I think we could kill it..."

"Mother can frighten off evil spirits. Maybe we can cow and corner it, set it on fire, and unleash a barrage of ice and magic bolts into him, until he's finished."

The mother and daughter discuss this possible strategy, and it's risks...
"...Да, но если я не могу напугать его, и у нас нет резервного плана, который является надежным, то что, а??..."
*translation*
...yeah, but if i cant frighten it, and we don't have a back up plan that's foolproof, then what, eh??...

In reply to Hetilda Yurick (msg # 443):

"Did the fire effect it? Others using oil flasks may also help. But I had another idea...if it freezes water into ice, if we could half immerse it in water, would it freeze the water to ice and so entrap itself?"

As the others discuss how to deal with the creature beyond the gate, Aldous recovers his lantern (again) and cautiously steps past the formerly animated corpse in the doorway to look over the next room.

In reply to Aldous Hack (msg # 445):

The contents of this room nay have been bottles on shelves, but all is smashed to wood fragments and pieces of glass. Another step up leads to another small room.

"Gee!Looks like somebody sure had a swell time in here!"

In reply to Aine Walsh (msg # 444):

"If we leave here, can we be sure the wight cannot get through these bars and trap us?

"If we re-secure everything behind us, we should be fine. The best thing to do, would be to change out the locks, so we'd have our own keys."

If we have that much time...

In reply to Sparky (msg # 450):

"Maybe we shout do that while we are here to hit it as it approaches..."

She creates another Icy sphere...[Private to GM: Rolled 2 under skill to cast.]

Aldous approaches the doorway into the other small room, taking a curved path and moving his lantern side to side to see as much of the room from as far away as possible.

"It's smart. It's waiting for us...It won't approach us, it'll ambush us, or draw us into a trap, where it can seize us into it's clutches."
Sven said ominously.

In reply to Svendegard Yurick (msg # 453):

"Should we seek some more powerful folk to deal with it? The Haderaum? One of the temples?"

In reply to Aine Walsh (msg # 454):

..yeah, but if i cant frighten it, and we don't have a back up plan that's foolproof, then what, eh??...

OOC: just showing roll i made back a few lines, to help determine what will be sufficient to stop and harm the thing. thinking: antidoron, holy water, consecrated oil/incense. Or runes, in her culture, probably...

"Mother knows best, with these things. We should probably do as she suggests. I wouldn't suggest bringing in outside help, though. Rather, we can find the right stuff and use it ourselves."
