(Ladies, Gentlemen, and Esteemed Enbies, I shall set the stage!)(edited)

*All for your own reasons, you have been captured and chained (or in Hvit’s case, caged) to await trial for the crimes you are accused of. Your captors have dragged you all the way to the saxen town of Wedenmark.*

*As you are dragged through the streets, the air seem festive, not that you have the chance to celebrate. Among your convoy are two thieves, a petty murderer, and a blind man in scholarly robes who has been bound and gagged...*

*You are escorted by well over a dozen armed soldiers, all your possessions have been taken away. Leading the convoy is a man in full plate with a tabard bearing a weighted scale emblem*

(If y'all want to have a chat, go ahead)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 4:59 PM

I look at the shackles and grunts. I then glance around at those around me. Small ones.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:00 PM

I tug at the shackles, frowning. Giving up, I look around, trying to see if I recognize any of the other captives.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:01 PM

I fix my eyes on the cutest of the guards and try to give a charming smile through a swollen lip, "Come on, you really wanna chain cute little me baby?"

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:02 PM

Ignatius, Roll for Diplomacy

*(5;)* The guard smacks Ignatius with the bottom end of his Halberd in the back. "Keep. Moving." (No damage)(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:04 PM

I look towards the guards, "I demand an answer for my capture, and I demand to be released!"

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:05 PM

I roll my eyes at the other captives trying to bargain with the guards and keep an eye out for any notable landmarks to find my way back.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:06 PM

The man in the different armor looks at Alis. "You will be taken to Merik's holy court, you will please your case and you will be judged innocent or guilty accordingly." He says this like he's repeated it a thousand times before.

The Man looks at the crowd blocking the way. "Tomorrow by the looks of it." He raises a hand. "Guards, to the stockade."

The convoy switches direction, skirting the outside of the first layer of city walls rather than going deeper into the city.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:08 PM

I glare at the other guard angrily, but don't say anything.(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:08 PM

I test the restraints to see if I might be able to break them, but otherwise follow passively. For now.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:10 PM

I roll my eyes, and say to a different guard "I *hardly* think my actions merited arrest. Why don't you just let me go? I'll make it worth your while." I attempt a wink but it isn't a very good one.(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:12 PM

*(9)* The shackles are solid, you,re not sure you could break them.

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:13 PM

My thoughts wander as I walk and I can't help thinking what a view the city walls would offer.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:13 PM

"This is utterly ridiculous," I mutter, "What reason do *I* have to be sent to The Holy Court?"

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:13 PM

The Cleric turns around to face Ignatius. "Are you attempting to bribe me?" He takes out his warhammer which starts glowing with magical force.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:14 PM

"Will you cease flirting? It's giving me a headache," I snap out.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:15 PM

"You were accused of Heresy." The Cleric says to Alis. "If you are not guilty, the court will free you accordingly."

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:15 PM

I laugh nervously my voice higher pitched than normal, "Nope no nah not what I was doing." I say to the cleric

"Would you rather I flirt with you, darling." I say to Alis

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:16 PM

"If it prevents you from dying, that would be far more pleasurable. I dislike watching heads get smashed in my presence."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:17 PM

I try to follow the conversation but fail to do so. I do understand a few words, though. “Nar is innocent.” My pace adjusts as others speed up.(edited)

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:18 PM

I quicken my pace, not wanting to worsen my situation.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:18 PM

I lower my voice and look at the others, "Perhaps," I offer, "We can work together?"(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:18 PM

"I'm sure you are, big guy." I also attempt to wink at Nar

"That is a grand idea, darling."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:19 PM

I look at the little tiefling. The words make sense... but I decide to just grunt.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:20 PM

*You are lead to a round tower in the corner of a busy neighborhood. A statuesque woman in full plate comes out. Her expression looks tired and worried. Her salt and pepper hair is tied in a bun.*

“Who are they?” She asks

“Thieves, murderers, drunkards, and heretics.” The Cleric answers. “Here for trial. The streets are blocked from the festival.”

"Put them down in the jail." The female knight answer.
"Yes, Knight-Captain!" One of the guard answers.

*They bring you inside the building, it's a simple tower with a staircase leading up and another down. They begin to take you underground which is a single room with a handful of cells.*

"You'll be brought to the temple for judgement at first light." The Cleric says. "I will be there as witness."(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:23 PM

I let myself be led, but watch the people and the room carefully.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:23 PM

"Well, I see I may have a *delightful* journey ahead of me!" I feign a grin.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:24 PM

*The Party is divided as follow:*
Cells A: Nar, Jill, Hvit
Cell B: Alis, Iggy, the murderer.
Cell C: Blind Man, 2 thieves
Your animals are put into a stable-like structure outside save for Svart who seems to have flown away but followed your party from the distance.

*A bored couple of guards set to watch over you. They sit right next to an alarm bell, playing dice. Not far from them is a series of chest in which they have stashed the things confiscated from you.*(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:26 PM

I look to Jill and Hvit and speak in ocryn. “Do you understand this.”

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:26 PM

Once we're alone, I turn to my cellmate, the one that likes to flirt, and whisper, "Flirtiest of women, will you aid in an escape?"(edited)

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:27 PM

I hear Nar speaking some foreign language and block it out.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:27 PM

The guards are boredly chatting and complaining about missing the burning of Lothair and how Peter is shit at dice.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:28 PM

I see the little one doesn’t understand and focus on Hvit. “Translate? Want to run. Need help.”

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:29 PM

I get the sense the other prisoners are planning something but with no understanding of the language there's nothing I can do to help

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:29 PM

Hvit is still in a small birdcage for the record.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:29 PM

"I'm a man and... perhaps. What do you bring to the table?" I respond

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:31 PM

"Less imprisonment unless you enjoy being captured," I remind, "I fear for your wellbeing if you continue to attempt your flirtations."

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:32 PM

I feel someone watching me and I notice the prisoner in the bird cage

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:32 PM

"What'd you to do?" The accused murderer asks Iggy and Alis

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:33 PM

"I meant more along the lines of how useful you'll be in an escape attempt." I ignore the murderer, Alis seeming much more useful and interesting

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:34 PM

Thankfully for all of you, the guards seem far too disinterested to be paying attention to your blatant talk of escape.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:35 PM

I roll my eyes at the other cellmate and continue speaking to Iggy, "I have the ability to fight and cast magic. That should suffice, along with skills of diplomatic conversation."

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:36 PM

"Then why would you even need me, little darling."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:38 PM

I see the acknowledgement. I turn to Hvit. “I break door. Free you if possible. Then you annoy guards. I take them out. Yes?”

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:38 PM

"I believe no man should be left behind," I answer simply, "If you have the chance, why not, *darling*?"

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:39 PM

I shrug, "I guess that's a good enough reason."

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:39 PM

The guards are armed in the standard chainmail, swords and halberds of the local guards. The two of them are human males.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:40 PM

I look around our cell, trying to find something useful

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:40 PM

I turn to the birdcage and its inhabitant once again. "What did he say? Does he have a plan?"

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:40 PM

I pull out my lockpicks, careful to hid them from the guards

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:40 PM

There's a chamber pot, wall shackles and what seems to be rat droppings.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 5:41 PM

Hvit ask anr to wait and translate to jill

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:41 PM

I look at the guards and then at the small bird. “Yes. Wait.”

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:42 PM

"Why do I get the sense this will go horribly wrong."

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:43 PM

*You hear steps coming from the stone staircase. Moments later a third guard comes down with a platter of food, allegedly.* "Slop time! You jailrats!" He announces.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:43 PM

I look towards the other cells, noticing the other captives. Then I glance towards Iggy, "This could be a chance?" I whisper

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:44 PM

I watch the guard, looking at what he wears.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:44 PM

I hide my lockpicks again when teh new guard arrives

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:45 PM

He's dressed like all the others, chainmail and guards tabard. Throug a small gap in the bars he passes waterskins and bowls of barley porridge. Iggy's however also has saurkraut and a a lump of butter on his.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:47 PM

As the guard comes by I stand and offer my hands. “Remove.” I say in imperial. The word is rough, but understandable.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:48 PM

The guard looks at Nar. He speaks in a rough Ku'rok: "Tomorrow. Now Rest."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:48 PM

I stay silent as I observe the situtation

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:49 PM

I switch to ku’rok. “Ok.” I take the food and put the small part of my water skin up to Hvits cage for him to drink.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:49 PM

Once the guard is done with his round he goes to sit with the other two, joining their gambling.

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:50 PM

I take my food and sit closer to Hvit and Nar.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:51 PM

I sigh at the fact that there is one more guard to deal with and sits down with my food in front of me. In ocryn I speak to the other cell, "Are you all planning something over there?"

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:51 PM

I am still standing. But I place my food on the floor and fall to my bottom beside the others, jerking my restraints as I do in an attempt to break them while covering the noise.

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:51 PM

(Strenght check again)

*(23)* The restrains bend but they're not quite broken.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:52 PM

My eyes widen in surprise when I hear Iggy speak, I lean over, "Are you asking them if they have a plan?" I whisper.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:52 PM

I huff and turn to the other voice, speaking the same language. “Understand. Possibility.”

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:53 PM

I nod to her, "They seem to be forming one."

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:53 PM

Hvit you can sense Svart, he's waiting on the roof. A small barred window peaks at some back streets, the room is all masonry stone. There's only one exit in or out. A few candlestones lit the place edequately.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 5:54 PM

"It appears you're far more useful to this situation than I am myself," I note

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:55 PM

I turn to Hvit and Jill, showing them my shackles. “Cannot break quietly. Other plan?” I speak ocryn.(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 5:56 PM

"Of course I am, darling." I pull out my lockpicks once again, in Ocryn I say, "I can pick the locks."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 5:56 PM

I turn back to the small creature in the other cage. “Silent. Man understand.” He points to the third guard.

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 5:58 PM

I lean in close to Hvit, and whisper "I might be able to add fire to the equation"

## Kali the GM-Today at 5:59 PM

*As you scheme, time passes, through the tiny window you can see that the sun is set now.*(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:00 PM

*A large bell begins to ring through the structure*

"What the..." One of the guard says, they get up. "Mikael, let's go check." Two of the guards leave upstairs. the third one stands up, clearly worried.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 6:02 PM

Hvit start fiddling with the cage lock (Take 20 Dissable device)

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:02 PM

The Lock on Hvit's cage opens after a few tries, leaving him free.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:03 PM

I call out to the remaining guard, "Good sir, perhaps I can offer a recommendation? You ought to follow your allies, lest they find themselves in danger."

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:04 PM

Iggy, Alis: Make a perception check, in secret. (Go to bot and make '-r20+x @Kali the GM' )(edited)

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 6:05 PM

Hvit get out of the cage and sneak his head out of the cell bars

(Stealth roll 19)

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:09 PM

Both of you can hear the distinctive sounds of combat upstairs...

Hvit, the guard is not paying any attention to you.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:10 PM

I decide to pick the locks on my shackles

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:10 PM

There are keys next to the guard post.

iggy, Roll dissable device.(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:11 PM

I stand and offer my shackles, signaling for Jill to do the same.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:12 PM

"Darling, would you like a little help with those?" I point at Alis's shackles with my lockpick

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:12 PM

I glance towards Iggy, and nod, "I would appreciate the effort, dear sir."

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:12 PM

"Get us out!" The others start shouting, save for the bound and gagged blindman.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 6:12 PM

Hvit stare at Nar hands standing 4 ft above Hvit's head.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:13 PM

I watch the others, "I don't trust that man," I motion to the man that's bound and gagged.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:13 PM

*Something falls down the stairs, bouncing around as it does. When it stops you see the decapitated head of one of the guardsman.*

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:13 PM

(I rolled a 26 I'm sure that unlocks Alis)

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:13 PM

Alis' shackle unlocks. Hvit finds the correct key and they seem to work for both shackles.(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:14 PM

I see the head and stare, waiting for Hvit to finish with my shackles.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 6:15 PM

Hvit leave the keys to nar and leave the cell

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:15 PM

I notice the head, "Well, it appears we all shall be facing something quite interesting, shall we not?"

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 6:15 PM

I look to Nar for the keys, still shackled

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:15 PM

Nar grabs them and finds the key for his and Jill’s cell, along with Jill’s shackles.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:16 PM

Hvit's gear are in a chest near the guard station. It's unlocked.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:17 PM

I follow the birds lead, looking for my halberd and shield, as well as my bags.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:17 PM

I look at the others and offer a grin, "Let's get along, unless one of you desires to go alone against whatever creature could be upstairs."

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 6:17 PM

once Hvit get his gear He sneak to the stairs to see if something is comming

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 6:18 PM

Freed from my own shackles I take the keys to the other cell holding Iggy and Alis, who clearly need them

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:19 PM

I take the keys from Jillosa and unlock us heading for my gear

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:20 PM

I head directly towards my gear, grabbing it, getting ready for the chance of a fight

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:20 PM

You come upstairs to see a scene of carnage. Three men in blackened armor stand above the dead guardsman, greatswords in hand. "We're done here." One of them says. They don't seem to notice you.
"What about the underground level?"
"If anyone's down there, the ghouls will handle it. We have bigger fish to fry."(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:21 PM

I see Hvit coming. “Enemy?” I ask in ocryn.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:21 PM

Along with the wails of the thieves, The blind gagged man seems to make an attempt at being heard, grunting.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:21 PM

I listen closely for Hvit's answer to Nar as I sling my bag over my shoulder and grab my weapons

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:21 PM

I look towards Iggy, "I shall ignore him, I recommend you do as well." Referring to the gagged man(edited)

Ocryn:"Men in black kill everyone, said gouls comming"

Vanir:"Men in black kill everyone, said gouls comming"

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:22 PM

I stare at them and then look at iggy. “Free. Help needed.” He says this in ocryn as well.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:22 PM

I ask Iggy, "Please, my new ally, I request your aid in a translation."(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:23 PM

"You watch my back, I'll watch yours. Deal?" I say to everyone both in common and ocryn so everyone understands

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:23 PM

"He wants our help," I translate for Alis

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 6:23 PM

Turn to iggy and alis and ask;"Ocryn? Vanir?"

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:23 PM

I nod, "Ah, this appears to be an interesting group of people. I shall enjoy this."

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:24 PM

Alis, you notice a tiny fox squeezing through the bars of the window... It goes for the blind man.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:24 PM

I turn around, and walk over, waiting to see what the fox attempts to do.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:24 PM

Nar grunts annoyingly and takes the keys to unlock the other prisoners cells, following the fox to the blind man first.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:25 PM

It goes right for the blindman and removes his gag. "Blasted fools!" The man says once he's able to speak. "Will one of you unbind me?"

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:26 PM

I don’t understand the man or the others but free all of the prisoners. As I do, I speak in imperial. “You attack Nar. You die. Yes?”

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:26 PM

I attempt to sense the motives of the man

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:27 PM

(Secret roll:) You sense he really wants to be untied.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:27 PM

"I don't trust him," I mutter, "But I don't think he's violent."

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:28 PM

I decide to join Hvit in standing watch by the stairs(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:28 PM

I finish freeing the blind man and the thieves and move to free the other man that was with iggy and Alis.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:28 PM

(Secret Roll): You hear footfalls, they're coming closer.

"Thank you, by the divines it took a minotaur to free me. So much for Aasimar's kindness." The man says.(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 6:29 PM

I stop short of the last man and move to prepare for whatever is coming.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 6:30 PM

I put a hand on the knife at my belt and prepare for a fight.(edited)

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 6:30 PM

I grip my scimitar tightly, preparing for the worst

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 6:30 PM

I roll my eyes and prepare, pulling my bow out.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:31 PM

*A creature wearing the tattered remains of a noble’s outfit walks down the stairs, sniffing the air, its flesh is pallid and hands loosely of its emancipated frame. Another follows behind it, dressed in tatters of a pesant's outfit*

Everyone, roll initiative!

Alis; (1) Not only does your attack miss, you get off balance.

Jill (11); Your swing is aptly dodged by the creature.

## Kali the GM-Today at 6:42 PM

Jill, the monster jumps onto you and manage to bite you! (7damage)
Iggy, you evade the attack unscathed.(edited)

Iggy's walking stick connects with the ghoul's skull, letting out a sickening cracking sound (6damage).(edited)

The peasant ghoul gets cut by Nar's axe, but avoids the worst of it. (6damage)

Hvit flies to Jillosa and calls forth their healing power, bringing Jill back to her feet as healthy as ever.

The blind mans chants something, a serpent made of fire appears near him.

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:02 PM

Alis shoots her bow, narrowly missing Nar and shooting right into the Ghoul's chest which doesn't seem too phased by it.

Jill's spear goes through the ghoul which collapses on the ground, no longer moving. (9damage)

Ghoul time!

The Ghoul bites Iggy, who quickly feels his muscles stiffen, unable to move. (6damage + Paralysis)

With a mighty blow, Nar bisects the remaining ghoul.

The fight is over, the two ghouls lay dead on the ground, the room smells awful of undead visceras.(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:22 PM

I look to the blind man and glare at his summoning. “Friend? Enemy?” I say this in imperial.(edited)

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 7:22 PM

i wipe the blood off my spear and hang it off my backpack

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:22 PM

I get up when the small bird person heals me, "Well that went well."

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:22 PM

"Friend." The creature fizzles away after a moment.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:23 PM

I snort and move towards the door to look outside.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:23 PM

I snort, understanding the word trust. “Nar no care. Nar leave. Find friend.”

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:24 PM

"Enjoy yourself, although, I recommend not finding yourself in this situation again."

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:24 PM

*Searching the ghoul, you find several most likely looted or stolen necklaces arounds its neck and at its belt a purse is attached, it contains 26g, 12s and 9c, Still in its sheet is a dagger of great craftsmanship*(edited)

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:26 PM

Apraise check on the necklaces

(13)

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:26 PM

The necklaces seem to be the type commoners would wear with the odd religious amulet. You might get a hundred gold from the bundle.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:27 PM

I go to the stairs and listen for more enemies

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:28 PM

You can hear some chatter upstairs.

Hvit call Svart Through link

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:30 PM

The chatter doesn't immediately concern me too much so I go check out the game the guards were playing

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:30 PM

"Minotaur?" The old mans asks. "Come here."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:31 PM

I watch the old man, gripping my bow tightyl

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:31 PM

*Looking at the guard’s gambling you see they were playing a variant of cribbage. Several coins as well as two rings and a necklace are still in the ‘pot’. In the panic they left their money.*

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:31 PM

I do not understand the words the blind man speaks. Instead, I look around the room and try to find another exit I can fit in.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:32 PM

I take every thing from their stuff. (appraise the rings and necklace)

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:32 PM

"Someone tell that minotaur to come here?" The man says, stumbling out of his cell, guided by the fox.

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 7:32 PM

i go to hvit and thank him for the earlier heal

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:32 PM

Hvit gather stuff from nobleman and bring it to the table

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:33 PM

I sighed and walk over to Nar, tapping him and pointing at the blind man, still watching him suspiciously. I mutter, "I do not trust.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:33 PM

Hvit goes to Nar and tell him the blind man want to speak to him

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:33 PM

I look at the blind man and snort, walking over. “Nar here. What want?”

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:35 PM

"When you're ready to head upstairs, come to me. I'll protect you." The old man says.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:36 PM

I listen to small bird for words and respond back for Hvit to translate. “I go to find friend. Help is good. Follow.”

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:36 PM

The old man sighs. "Oh how I wish I had chosen any specialty beside ancient languages..."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:36 PM

Having nothing better to do, and still not trusting the man, I decide to follow

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:38 PM

You can see a back street, it's dirty and filled with garbage.

You can't see anyone outside.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:39 PM

Hvit say (common;) "Hvit go scout hvit back soon"

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:40 PM

"I fear where these creatures came from," I tell the group, "We must be careful if we decide we must leave the jail."

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:40 PM

Hvit fly A few circles around the tower to analyse the sittuation

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:41 PM

*The city looks dire from the sky, not only can you see large parts of the city ablaze, but massive chasm have formed through it. The Arcaneum is encased in a luminous purple sphere. The occasional scream come to your ears.*

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:42 PM

*Large holes in the ground seems to have appeared and many buildings have sunk*

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:42 PM

I look to iggy and speak in ocryn. “We leave when small bird returns. Tell others.”

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:43 PM

*The occasional figure roam the streets in a slow gait. It's hard to tell what they are from your height. Large masses of people can be seen in midtown, lowtown where you are seems fairly clear.*(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:43 PM

I translate, "Big guy says we should leave when the little bird gets back."

*They don't take notice of you. They shamble around, covered in blood and stinks of death.*

*Outside the tower you're, in you see one of them come back in and out, carrying bodies to a cart. This one seems more aware*(edited)

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:47 PM

Hvit go back to the cells and relay what he saw

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:48 PM

After hearing Hvit's information, I speak up. "Seeing as we may be allying for the time being, perhaps we all ought to introduce ourselves. Although, we've already introduced ourselves through violence," I offered to the group.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:48 PM

I grunt and check my equipment before pulling a rope out and handing one end to the blind man and tell him to follow. I tie the other side to my waist.

I look to iggy and Hvit for a translation.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:49 PM

I bow slightly to her, "I'm Ignatius of Katalonia, it is a pleasure to meet me I'm sure, darling."

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 7:49 PM

"My name is Jillosa." I tell Alis, abandoning my native vanir for imperial common.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:49 PM

When I notice Nar looking at me I translate for him

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:50 PM

"I am Alis Kryi, Inquisitor of the Lord of the Herd. I am honored to have met you all, and created a perhaps short alliance. Especially, you flirtiest man. I approve of your skills."(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:52 PM

I give her a genuine smile, basking in the compliment

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:53 PM

"Name is Hvit" Point to familiar "this is Svart"

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:54 PM

I grunt and move to the exit slowly, pulling the old man behind me.

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:54 PM

The old man comes to nar, puts a hand on him and incant a chant. Nar gains Protection from Evil.(edited)

(3min duration)

"Go wreck them." The man says in common.(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:56 PM

I do not fully understand the words but I understand the intent. “Nar go now. Find Hetra. Together?” He asks everyone this in common.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:56 PM

"I will aid you, as I had previously said, we shall work together."

## **Nargali (Dylon)**-Today at 7:58 PM

Nar moves to leave first, letting the blind man trail behind him a good few feet.

Hvit call Svart Through link

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:30 PM

The chatter doesn't immediately concern me too much so I go check out the game the guards were playing

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:30 PM

"Minotaur?" The old mans asks. "Come here."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:31 PM

I watch the old man, gripping my bow tightyl

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:31 PM

*Looking at the guard’s gambling you see they were playing a variant of cribbage. Several coins as well as two rings and a necklace are still in the ‘pot’. In the panic they left their money.*

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:31 PM

I do not understand the words the blind man speaks. Instead, I look around the room and try to find another exit I can fit in.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:32 PM

I take every thing from their stuff. (appraise the rings and necklace)

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:32 PM

"Someone tell that minotaur to come here?" The man says, stumbling out of his cell, guided by the fox.

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 7:32 PM

i go to hvit and thank him for the earlier heal

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:32 PM

Hvit gather stuff from nobleman and bring it to the table

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:33 PM

I sighed and walk over to Nar, tapping him and pointing at the blind man, still watching him suspiciously. I mutter, "I do not trust.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:33 PM

Hvit goes to Nar and tell him the blind man want to speak to him

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:33 PM

I look at the blind man and snort, walking over. “Nar here. What want?”

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:35 PM

"When you're ready to head upstairs, come to me. I'll protect you." The old man says.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:36 PM

I listen to small bird for words and respond back for Hvit to translate. “I go to find friend. Help is good. Follow.”

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:36 PM

The old man sighs. "Oh how I wish I had chosen any specialty beside ancient languages..."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:36 PM

Having nothing better to do, and still not trusting the man, I decide to follow

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:38 PM

You can see a back street, it's dirty and filled with garbage.

You can't see anyone outside.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:39 PM

Hvit say (common;) "Hvit go scout hvit back soon"

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:40 PM

"I fear where these creatures came from," I tell the group, "We must be careful if we decide we must leave the jail."

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:40 PM

Hvit fly A few circles around the tower to analyse the sittuation

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:41 PM

*The city looks dire from the sky, not only can you see large parts of the city ablaze, but massive chasm have formed through it. The Arcaneum is encased in a luminous purple sphere. The occasional scream come to your ears.*

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:42 PM

*Large holes in the ground seems to have appeared and many buildings have sunk*

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 7:42 PM

I look to iggy and speak in ocryn. “We leave when small bird returns. Tell others.”

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:43 PM

*The occasional figure roam the streets in a slow gait. It's hard to tell what they are from your height. Large masses of people can be seen in midtown, lowtown where you are seems fairly clear.*(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:43 PM

I translate, "Big guy says we should leave when the little bird gets back."

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:45 PM

*They don't take notice of you. They shamble around, covered in blood and stinks of death.*

*Outside the tower you're, in you see one of them come back in and out, carrying bodies to a cart. This one seems more aware*(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:58 PM

*As you get closer up, you can hear banter In the room atop the stairs, in common.*
“You’d think the damn Knights of the Sepulchre would give us a hand raising their army.” One of them whines with a sigh.
“Shut up Glen.” The other says. “Would you rather be one of them?” He kicks one of the corpse. “At least the ghouls left, I’ll never get used to the smell, or their diet.”
“Now who’s the whiny one?” Glen mocks.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 7:59 PM

I trail behind the group, still having my bow ready

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 7:59 PM

I try to stick to the middle of the group

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 7:59 PM

Hvit sneak up

(32)

## Kali the GM-Today at 7:59 PM

*In the room atop the stairs are a pair of figures clad in black robes and a corroded iron mask, they command a lone zombie to carry the corpse of dead guardsman outside. They most stand about talking and letting their undead minion do the work.*

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 8:01 PM

i take out my spear, having proved useful in the previous fight

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 8:01 PM

Hvit make a sign to stop to the others(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:02 PM

I untie the man and place a hand on his shoulder to gently place him against the wall. “Wait.” I whisper in common.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 8:02 PM

Hvit go tel the others about those in the room

"let hvit Sleep the mens first. Then you can go"

Hvit sneak back up to search for a perch

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:04 PM

You get up undetected. The two figures are looking about the bodies for stuff to loot and not paying attention.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:04 PM

Yep

There are support beams running across the tower.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:06 PM

One of them fall down onto the ground, taken by Hvit's spell. The other takes out a sickle and orders the zombie to come back.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:07 PM

"You stupid bird!" The man yells!

The second wizard falls flat on his face, taken by Hvit's slumber hex.

Leaving only the zombie standing.

Alis misses the zombie with her bow, quite an impressive feat.(edited)

Iggy hits the zombie with his cane! The zombie barely reacts to the hit, it doesn't seem to have done much...

With one big swing, Nar sinks his axe into the zombie's head which collapses on the ground, dead(er)(edited)

"Someone tell me what the hell is going on!" The old man asks.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:21 PM

I move to grab the man once more and give him the rope to follow. “Safe now.”

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:22 PM

"We are proceeding to kill and hopefully murder evil things, sir you may want to step away."

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 8:22 PM

"You wouldn't want to get caught in the crossfire" I added.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:22 PM

The two humans are still down on the ground, asleep.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:23 PM

You succeed

With the fight over you can take a better view of the room. Several corpses of guards are strew around the ground. There's an overturned desk. A staircase leads to a second floor.

120 XP Each

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:25 PM

*Searching the dead necromancers you find their silvery sickles, a potion and three scrolls.*

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:26 PM

I move to look out the door, bringing the blind man with me.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 8:27 PM

"Anyone know what this shit is?" I ask about the items found on the necromancers

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:27 PM

In the desk you find several bills detailing fines paid and some coins. 22g 51s

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 8:28 PM

Take coins

"Hvit can check scrolls"(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:29 PM

*A cart filled with the bodies of the dead lays not far from the door to your left. On the other side, Only a few pace from you is a stable. You can hear Hetra and Kiv’s angered cries coming from it. In the chaos, it seems to have been left alone. In the distance, you can see not only fire, but a strange purple glow reflected over the night sky’s clouds.*

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:30 PM

“Nar return.” I move to the stables carefully, leaving the blind man inside the doorway, and attempt to free Hetra and the other animals.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:30 PM

The stable stalls are easy to open for a humanoid. Kiv looks around to find Jillosa.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:31 PM

With hetra and kiv following, I return to the house.(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:32 PM

"What are we doing standing around like fools?" The old man asks.

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 8:32 PM

I follow Kiv's cries to the stables and scoop him up in my arms

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:33 PM

I'm just listening and watching, not having much place right now.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:33 PM

I let the others loot and smile at Jill. Hetra moves through the doorway, barely fitting and sniffs around. I grab the blind mans hand and give him the rope once more. “Friend rescued. Leave soon. Patience.”

I look to the others. “Leave?”

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:34 PM

"Yes. Let us leave, there are issues arising, I am sure."

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 8:34 PM

"Wait"

"looting"

Hvit start to loot the guards corpse

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:35 PM

(Oh I forgot, the necromancers had spellbooks)

*Their chainmail lays broken from the wound that slew them. Each still have their shields strapped to their arms . A pair of crossbows are attached to their back but the bolts are scattered about. Their weapons lie at the ground; one short spear is broken, but the other remains intact.*

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 8:36 PM

Hvit get thoses too

Pouches?

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:36 PM

I grab the spear and hand it to the blind man.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:37 PM

"What do you want me to do with a stick?" The man says.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:37 PM

"It has one of those useful points, perhaps you ought to test it out."

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:37 PM

You find only a few coins in the pockets; 9s,13c

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:39 PM

"Thomas Bergmann." He answers. "About time someone pays attention to me."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:39 PM

I grunt and think on this. “Yes. Maybe help.”

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:40 PM

After a moment, the three petty criminals come upstairs, see what happened and scamper off through the door.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:40 PM

"Sir, your name is very lackluster, as is your attitude, I highly recommend you adjust it. Quickly," I call out

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:41 PM

*You arrive in what seems to be the guard,s barracks, the room has been ransacked and is left in chaos. It would take some time to find anything in the mess. A ladder leads through a trapdoor to the roof.*

Searching this room could take a while.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:41 PM

I immendiately head up towards the ladder.

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:42 PM

*You reach the belltower that earlier sounded the alarm, the ground is slick with blood and the tower’s top silent and empty.*
*Almost hidden by the pool of drying blood atop the tower, you see massive claw marks. In the darkened skies, you catch the occasional glimpse of flying beasts.over Midtown.*(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:43 PM

"Dear Lord of the Herd, what is going on?" I mutter and look around.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 8:43 PM

I keep nearer to the back of the group, content to let the bird be the one to scout ahead but I don't stay too far back to not remain with them

## Jillosa (Marissa)-Today at 8:44 PM

I follow close behind Alis, curious. Kiv stays close to my side(edited)

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:44 PM

I move to look up the ladder at Alis . “Leave now?” I question in common.(edited)

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:45 PM

What can I see from my point on top of the tower?

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:46 PM

Lots of devastation, the city is dark save for the fires. Lowtown seems mostly free of people.(edited)

Is anyone looting upstairs?

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:47 PM

"It appears dangerous! We shall all have to be excelling in carefulness." I shout back

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:48 PM

Do you do a quick msearch of the mess or be thorough?

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:48 PM

It'll probably take well over an hour with everything in such a state.

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 8:48 PM

Damn

quick then

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:49 PM

*In the first few minutes, you find two scrolls, one longsword of great craftsmanship, a large bundle of arrows (100), three flask of lamp oil, cooking equipment, several good quality soldier’s uniforms (5).*

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:52 PM

You'd need to search more throroughly through the mess of clothes, smashed furnitures and broken objects.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 8:52 PM

i mean desk and other furniture with storage space

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:53 PM

Dressers contained some clothes you already found but little else.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:53 PM

I become impatient. I want to leave. I call Hetra and look to iggy. I speak in ocryn. “Give Hetra stuff to carry. We need to leave.”

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 8:54 PM

I don't give Hetra anything but I head up to the roof, when I see Alis I give her the arrows

"I don't need these, darling."

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 8:55 PM

The sword I picked up is still in my hand, I look down at it not sure what to do with it

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:56 PM

I snort and move downstairs to look out the door once more. The blind man I guide with me.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:57 PM

I descend the ladder again and follow after Nar(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 8:57 PM

"You, bird!" The old man says, trying to point roughtly at where Hvit is. "Tell this beast I need to go to my home. I'll pay you!"

"It's on the other side of Lowtown."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 8:59 PM

"This man must be leading us to death. Is this a safe idea?" I question.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 8:59 PM

I listen to small bird. “Nar leave city.” He tells the blind man. “No need for money.” His imperial is broken, but understandable, as usual.

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:00 PM

"A thousand gold! Another thousand for you, bird!" He says, his voice doesn't seem desperate.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:01 PM

"Do not trust rich men," I note, "They often gained it through evil manners."

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 9:01 PM

"Oh don't be like that, darlling. Money is wonderful."

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:01 PM

"I'm a liscenced member of the imperial abjurer's guilt you heretical lout!"

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:02 PM

"It is pathetic you require your title to prove your worth."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 9:04 PM

I listen to Hvit translate and then grunt. “Nar leave city,” I repeat to the man. “No need for money.”

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 9:05 PM

I listen to the translation and grunt at iggy.

## Hvit (Galahad)-Today at 9:07 PM

Spellcraft check

(20)

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:08 PM

Nar, you suddenly really want to protect your friend, bring him home safely. After all you've known each other for so long and you're so close!
Nar just got Charm person'd, Hvit knows.
"Bring me home."

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:10 PM

The blind man points at a direction. "This way. I'm sorry, but I need you."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:10 PM

"You have proven you cannot be trusted. I wish you congratulations," I snap out, unhappily following along.

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:11 PM

"Would you rather walk through an undead infested city without someone who's provent to be able to fight them?"

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:11 PM

"Much more than *manipulate* others."(edited)

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 9:12 PM

I follow along as well but joining in Alis's distrust of the old man

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:13 PM

*As you walk the streets, you see the occasional zombie which you easily avoid. After a while, you reach a large structure made of stone. It's been barricaded and living people in the city's watch uniform are at the door along with an oversized lizardfolk. A sign announces it to be the Lion's Hearth.*

"Halt! Who goes there!" A female guard asks.

"Do we look like undead you bucket head!" Thomas yells. As you walked he seems to have gotten shorter of breath.

"If you agree to disarm, you may come in and take shelter with the others." The guard hesitantly answers.

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:15 PM

"Silence! Do not attract more attention with your foul attitude," I snap at Thomas before turning to the guards, "Can you tell us anything of the situation first?"

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:16 PM

"There's a lot of rumors..."She says. "They say Lothair the blasphemer came back from the dead to reclaim his kingdom."

## Ignatius (Ezra)-Today at 9:16 PM

"I'd really rather not disarm," I mutter to anyone in the group that is listening

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:17 PM

"We cannot just give up our weapons, please, understand and allow us in."

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:18 PM

The guard pauses. "Well, you could've attacked. I guess we can let you in." The guards move the improvised gate, a wagon out of the barricade's entrance.

"You seem to know your way around a fight, you might want to speak to Knight Captain Walorf."

## Alis (Notey)-Today at 9:19 PM

"I appreciate your kindess, good people."(edited)

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:20 PM

"She's directing the surviving guards, trying to reclaim the city and protect the survivors."

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 9:20 PM

I simply wait for the blind man to walk in the place. Hetra snorts behind me, simply glad to be together again.

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:21 PM

"I need rest..." Thomas says, getting inside.

## Nargali (Dylon)-Today at 9:21 PM

I follow. (Along with everyone else and end scene?)

## Kali the GM-Today at 9:34 PM

You have arrived at the Lion's Hearth, a large inn in Lowtown. The Inn boast a massive main room at the center of which is a large hearth in which a fire burns. There's a bar, tended by a lioness on the edge of puberty. A staircase leads up to private rooms.

Other rooms downstairs exist, one seems to have been converted into a storeroom, another a military command post. There's a flophouse where about a hundred of refugees are huddling together.
