[Recap]<br>
<br>
From Z'leyra: [Re: Comments on
bravery]<br>
Z'leyra
contributes her story:<br>
<br>
"It is hard
to know how brave I really am. I believe that I<br>
am quite
brave, I am certainly no coward, but I cannot<br>
really know
based upon my actions since the day I enhanced<br>
an
Alectorius to give me some extra magic. A side
effect<br>
of the
Alectorius is unshakable courage." <she
smiles<br>
crookedly> "Not necessarily the wisest thing in some<br>
circumstances."<br>
<br>
"It is not
always wise to hit a giant with an axe, fight bands<br>
of brigands,
to go solo to and thru a hostile country, or<br>
to do other
things that some would consider brave, others<br>
consider
foolish. I have to remember to keep in mind that<br>
the
Alectorius removes the wisdom of fear. To compensate I<br>
strive to
attain my goals in as safe a way as reasonable but<br>
I don't
always remember to be cautious."<br>
GM: Ack. <br>
<br>
From Chion: [Re:
Comments]<br>
Chion just laughs
once at Cetric. "I have no doubt you do<br>
not know the
word." In Chosai.<br>
<br>
[Kasha's Truth
story here]<br>
<br>
Chion smiles and
says, "I've already told my truth for the<br>
evening."
Then he'll join the party sleeping away from<br>
Cetric's group and
use watchful sleep per his norm.<br>
GM: Ack. <br>
<br>
From Z'leyra: [Re:
Actions[<br>
Z'leyra says
"I will be tirelessly tracking until we catch<br>
up to the
graverobber. I will be compelled to follow, that<br>
is part of the
magic. I suggest splitting the party into<br>
two, with sidh in
each group for their night vision. These<br>
groups should
alternate accompanying me or napping (remember<br>
to have someone on
watch) and catching up. The sidh can lead<br>
their groups
around holes and other dangers in the dark."<br>
<br>
"I will go on
foot so as to not tire out my horse too much.<br>
If Ben'Dar
or someone could lead and care for my horse<br>
that would
be appreciated."<br>
<br>
Wearing her combat
gear, carrying water skins and packets of<br>
Foyson powder, but
leaving her bedroll and bulk foods<br>
attached to the
horse's saddle Z'leyra starts tracking.<br>
GM: Ack. <br>
<br>

[New Stuff]<br>
<br>
Octaqi 18, in the 163rd Year
[TH]<br>
[Meanwhile somewhere on the
plains]<br>
Location: 11.5 Miles SE
of Caladan's Village<br>
Time: Roughly
5:45pm] [Day 48 of Trip]<br>
<br>
[The party listens to
Z'leyra's story of bravery.]<br>
<br>
Cetric: "I was saddened
slightly to hear that everyone"<br>
[He waves his arm
at the party] "killed Grog. He may<br>
have been a cruel
giant but we had an alliance. He<br>
would guard the
river from outsiders. We would supply<br>
it occasional deer
for feeding for this exchange. Grog<br>
did stop many
poachers and raiders from the river for<br>
entering into our
lands. But i understand he did attack<br>
everyone. So
I understand."<br>
<br>
Thig: "It is strange to
ally with a Giant. Who made this<br>
alliance?"<br>
<br>
Cetric: "Gib'borah and
Shaman Luan. I was still learning<br>
the ways of nature
and was away. It was many years<br>
ago. Just a
year ago Grog stopped five poachers from<br>
taking many animal
skins on the north side of the river."<br>
<br>
<br>
[As the party prepares
for camp at nightfall Z'leyra explains<br>
her tracking
problem.]<br>
<br>
Balrog: "You can't
just stay here?"<br>
<br>
Kasha: "She said
she was forced to go by the magic of the<br>
spell."<br>
<br>
Farseeker: "Riding
at night? With no moon? Very dangerous<br>
for the
horse."<br>
<br>
Cetric: "I
agree. If we were close. Within say a few miles<br>
I'd
go. But I'm not risking our horses going at night.<br>
Many horses
die from holes and falling or rattlers."<br>
<br>
[Z'leyra unpacks some of
her gear from her horse and waits<br>
to see her joins
her.]<br>
<br>
Farseeker: "I lost
my horse two years ago from night<br>
travel in
the mountains when a snake made the horse<br>
buck.
The horse ran and slipped in a hole. It<br>
broke its
leg and fell down. It had to be killed.<br>
I won't do
that again."<br>
<br>
Kasha: "Yes.
I've seen that happen as well."<br>
<br>
Thig: "I'll
go. I'll fly ahead of you."<br>
<br>
[So far Thig seems the
only one to want to go.]<br>
<br>
Next update Monday....<br>
<br>
Actions? Comments?<br>
<br>
I forgot about the aspect of the spell being
compelled to track.<br>
I gave ZL some alternative actions but the above
goes on.<br>
Who wishs to join her? I need to know that
info before can<br>
continue. This will affect some future
things though as those<br>
who join ZL will not sleep this night. So
fatigue may result<br>
from Day 49. Once I know who is going I
can determine if there<br>
is night encounters and continue. <br>
<br>
No one figured out the Stardate eh? :) Hint: Its NOT a
stardate.<br>
