<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Arawn: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>I've listed the
details that Finn went over along with notes from Raddok. If anyone has
anything to add or questions please post:)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- Why did the
fomorians travel so far north for dwarves??
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>- Captain Khias
demise... I think we'll need to have a good story on why/how I became the
replacement to hopefully avoid suspicion ?
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- Where are the
dwarves destined??
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- Qamon Velf is
the guide and was to have been met 2-3 weeks ago at the Fuzzy Dice Inn?
(although have Scott also mentioned a tavern called the Green Serpent) ?
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- Tal-kor company
are believed to be the mine owner - Genar Hargath and Yotan
Jelatoni
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- company
employees had been removed from the area due to Kotothi creatures? Did
they suddenly appear from below??
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- 2 known mines?
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>- A Divine
Vision spell produced the following: "The heart leads to
long term trauma while the mind relies on daunting ambition. Which can
lead to old meeting new and new meeting old."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Fomorian Empire spans the world. But its a
lot of small nations. For Vahear its dead center of Empire. Sail
mostly west and Rogizini to deal with and that's bad. Sail east
Ceruleans and Bhamotin. Further north Clima in the Sea. So the best
bets are Bhamotin and Marentia/Ba'ru for the least risk. It is
implied dwarves to be delivered to Vahear. From there who
knows. Guide/Inn on Fuzzy is correct sorry after my crash last year
I lost those notes so redid the inn name. Thanks. The Kotothi
creatures were way in a diff mine not this one in question. No evidence
to the same here. That was just Raddok dealt with. Hope this
helps.

From Dorhak: [Re: Actions]

GM: Ack. I'll mark this as gear taken.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Dorhak: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Dorhak makes his
comments about his things (HIS things!) but this brings up some
thoughts. Magic has many uses, as these humans show. It's not
just power, but creates ways to do things that normally cannot be
done. For the first time he wonders about what his future could
look like with him being able to make magic items. His main
motivation lately has been just trying to create a name for himself that
overshadows his given name that cannot be spoken. He determines to
consider plans for this. And soon.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>The
Runemasters. Dorhak had never really thought about entering their
ranks before. They were all holding so much importance and prestige
in the clans, and so much respect. His own station and training
never seemed to make that even a dream, let alone a goal. Now,
perhaps, just perhaps, he might be able to make some moves in that
direction. Dorhak considers himself fortunate to be of a long-lived
people. Such a goal might actually be possible. But how?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Good post. How? Probably apprentice to a
master and see if have any level of skill. Not every being can
gather magical power so it'd have to be tested first.

When the question of Khias's heritage came
up Arawn turned
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>"Any idea if
he was indeed Fomorian?"
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>OOC:
Scott, did the papers mention if the dwarves were supposed to be
delivered to Tal-kor or just the agent? If I recall Tal-kor
was just a company mentioned, though worth looking into. Please correct
me if I'm wrong.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Correct both Mournath and Raddok heard Khias speak
Fomorian. To be delivered to Agent in the small town on
Vahear. It was semi implied it was a wide ranging Merc call
(hopefully for Fomorians) to collect dwarfs.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Raddok: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>[People - I am
sending only you this update, but it is basically a Spoiler Alert for my
2nd novel.] [You can use whatever you need to, Mr GM, but if possible,
perhaps Raddok could share this information - in privacy - with Arawn,
Dorhak & the other ship's officers. I know that's an ironic statement
- lol. If anything can be left out of the actual next update I would
appreciate it. But use it all if you want - Raddok feels they are chasing
after a red herring, so he had to share his backstory. (and that you CAN
say in the update lol)]

</x-tab>UPDATE #76 re:

GM: Ack. I included it all. As it may or may not

technically. Second you may be
oddly on the right track in many
ways. :)

GM: Ack. Problem in what way? Ok. I see for some
reason I missed Dorhak's speech above on shields. I don't see it on
archives or I missed it. Bags like this retain shape so If you put
a man inside its going to be 6 feet long. So the bags can carry
shields/weapons but would look as it long mace or such. But this is
common so its not a big deal

Stuff]
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Ma 1st,
1636TH]<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Time:
7:40 pm]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Arawn sums up the conversation so far.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Dorhak turns to Z'leyra, "Lass, will you be willing to
leave your magic bauble behind that cancels illusions? If not, then
we will have to make some trick shackles, and I doubt anyone here has
much in the way of locksmith skills, nor materials to make new
shackles."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Upon being asked to leave her enhanced chalcedony behind
Z'leyra frowns, then responds, "If absolutely vital I shall, but I
would MUCH prefer to keep it on as it helps protect me. Instead I would
offer to take care to keep at least ten feet from any illusion that you
wish kept up, as that it the range at which the chalcedony dispels
them."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"If she keeps well enough away I can glamour cord to
look like chains. Otherwise Fremea or myself can transmute cord into
chains or vice versa - we can dispel the magic if the former. Or use real
chains and I can invoke an Open Prison spell. But we might not need
that, at least for our meeting with the mining company." Arawn
interjects.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Well lass, Im not going to force anything on you, but
I think our best option for us Dwarves is to use the illusion
shackles. Kiets solution to making the spell repeatable with the
ward is a good one, and frankly I dont wish to be chained, especially if
unarmed. Anyway, from the way I see it, you have two choices.
Leave the bauble behind and come along as a guard, or keep it on and join
Fremea and Unali. Standing off over 10 away would be, well, very
odd and I think they would notice." He looks over at her, his
face showing as if he were passing a stone, and says simply,
"Please?"
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Z'leyra accedes to the request to leave the chalcedony
behind and spend a bit of time finding a good hidey hole to conceal it
in.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Brutto stands shaking his head, no offense but how do you
guys get stuff done? This is all so over complicated. Over
thinking. He heads to the stairs for sleep.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Looking to Raddok Arawn asked, "Is slavery legal
here?"
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Dorhak turns to the group to judge their response.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Well, do we know that Khias was Fomorian or was he
just working for them? Either way, I figure they wanted to be as far away
as practical so that Vahear doesn't gain a reputation for doing things
the way, say, Clima might do, raiding places for slaves."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"I think the best 'story' to tell is just that us
Dwarves figured out what he was doing and set a trap for his party.
He didn't make it, so our pseudo-replacement", (nodding toward
Arawn) "is now in charge of that group. Khias was
unlucky. Now that they have their dander up, it's not going to be
possible to get any more dwarves for their scheme."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"We only were told where to deliver the dwarves, or how
to meet the contact. Asking about where they are being sent would
raise suspicion. We should be able to simply follow them.
between Unali, Corona, and Fremea, I think we won't lose them, er, me,
er, us."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"We should keep us Dwarves out of sight on the ship
until the 'group' can find this contact at either of the two joints (Inn
and Tavern), though someone is going to find us a keg of Vahear's finest
ale while we wait. This would also give you people time to look up
the mine owners afterward and contact them about their infestation
problem. Maybe there would be mercenary fees to be had by cleaning
them out. Probably some of those damnable goblins..." He
spits on the floor.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Brutto looks at the spit and opens his mouth, its bad enough
a sleek deck can be dangerous in itself, but the sailor remains quiet.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Anybody want to comment on the meaning of the
'vision'? Just babble to me."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"I am most comfortable with being 'tied up', where the
bonds are easy to release but firm enough not to accidentally fall off if
one of us is abused. then simply use your famous magicks to make
them seem like metal shackles."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Can any of you figure out a way to bring my arms and
armor? Seems like we have more than enough magic ability
here. Perhaps some of it can be held in Oblivion?" (looking at
Z'leyra)
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Z'leyra answers Dorhak, "It would be really handy if
the spell worked like that...but unless you have some living entity
holding the objects that doesn't mind missing out on events and trusts
that I will be able to bring them back as planned the spell doesn't seem
to vanish and bring back objects. Sorry."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Pyan remembers having this problem before and says, "Ah
ha! Catch a live squirrel someone, Z'leyra had an idea!
Not 100% sure that this would work without something living, so we
get Dorhak's gear. have then next to each other and the
squirrel tied and somewhat wrapped around his items." He then falls
over laughing.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"The simplest answer might be storing your gear in my bags. They're
enchanted to reduce encumbrance. If an emergency arises you can claim
them from there or I can translocate them out of the bag if need be,
possibly even on you if the situation permits. Arawn speaks to
Dorhak, I doubt we'll be searched but I can claim that they're to
be sold if anyone asks."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Dorhak replies to Arawn, "Is the mouth of the bag large
enough to allow a large shield to pass? What about weapons?
Is the bag tall enough to hold them? The bags may reduce weight but
its not like the bag is bigger inside than out...or is it...?"
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"They're large bags and have a larger capacity and also
reduced weight. So, yes, they're bigger on the inside than they appear.
The largest capacity is a bit more than double the size of a large sack
with the others being a bit more than half as large again. We'll just
have to make sure items are properly wrapped to avoid punctures."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
When the question of Khias's heritage came up Arawn turned
towards Mournath and Raddok, both of whom had spent time sailing with the
man.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Any idea if he was indeed Fomorian?"
<x-tab> </x-tab>
As Dorhak continued with the plan the Alfar nodded.
"Sounds like a plan. I can disguise myself as one of the Fomorian
soldiers traveling with Khias with little trouble.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
I'll mention the contact, to see if they're aware of him.
If they do I can see if they know if he's still in place or moved
elsewhere as we're past schedule. And, if Unali and Fremea find a way in
they might be able to see if more than the two mines exist.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
As to the vision, I think that might reveal itself in time.
I have a feeling it's a bit early for us to figure this out unless one of
the dwarves might have an idea.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
And I can help with the locks, either through illusion or
real shackles opened via magic." Arawn concludes.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok is torn. He had promised silence about the matter,
but now his new friends might be at risk if they ventured too far. He had
to speak up, although it might only make things more confusing.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
So, in response to Arawn's request, & for the benefit of
the others he said, "I can tell you something about where those
creatures came from, but it's breaking a promise I made, along with my
party in the mine-clearing job. The mine near Vahear is the
Tal-Genarth Mine. It is only a year or two old - still being developed.
As far as I know, there was no infestation problem there, but that was
several months ago, of course. The village for the workers & their
families was still being built. The infested mine was on the far side of
the island, north of Innanadan, the Tal-Yotani Mine." He thought of
what they had discovered, deep within a natural cavern discovered by the
miners, and had to repress a shudder.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Again, there was no problem at the mine near Port
Vahear, other than the usual small injuries occurring with the
development of a new mine. Both mines had silver and gold, and even
scattered small colonies of gemstones. These two mines were both
profitable and a guaranteed life job for their workers.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"The Tal-Yotani Mine had been started over twenty-five
years before, and had been a steady profit-maker, again with good-grade
gold ore, some silver & gemstones, even good areas promising
decorative quartz. However, when the miners broke into a natural cavern,
about six months before the infestation, they unwittingly became victims
of a very strange attack.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Not at first, but one day, a couple of weeks before we
were hired, there was a sudden influx of goblins, yes, and a few days
later, larger creatures started to show up. The miners fought as well as
they could, along with their small security force, but were forced to
flee as numbers of the beasts and beasties rose. The miners were not
trained to fight, and picks and shovels can only do so much. They
retreated from the cavern, drove as many of the creatures back inside of
it that they could, and closed the doors to the rest of the mine."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Seeing surprise around him, Raddok explained, "All the
major mine tunnels had lockable connecting doors, very sturdy. The owners
were naturally cautious & experienced miners - they knew there was a
real risk of breaking into a hidden underground spring or river. And,
although their mines were above sea level, mines tend to run deeper and
deeper the longer they are productive. Water under pressure can flood a
mine quickly, and it's also hard to tell when they might reach sea level
- the Sea of Tears was less than four miles away - underground pockets of
seawater were always a risk."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"So they always built strong, sturdy doors at both ends
of connecting passages between the main tunnels - before serious digging
began. That is why they were able to confine most of the beasties inside
the mine, although some escaped and caused havoc, requiring removing all
employees from the site, except for a small security force to manage the
main entrance gate."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok was finally able to explain his real concern - the
source of the Kotothi invasion. "What we found, at the very far end
of the cavern, was a strange & massive-appearing door, looking like
it was made of iron - or some strong metal - with a bluish light leaking
around all its edges. It was nearly ten feet tall and about six feet
across, and it was terrifying. We felt a strange energy from it. The elf
in our party called it a portal - a portal stronger than she could make,
or any of the mages she had known."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok sighed. Our group leaders ended up calling in a high
priest consultant - he was indirectly connected to the Temple of Potah -
and this priest teleported in to examine it. He then called in one of the
top priests of the Temple, and while waiting for him - we never saw who
it was; we were all ordered to leave. But what they did was set up what
they called a 'ward pact trap' to temporarily stop any more incursions
from the other side - wherever it went.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"The last thing I heard, as we were packing up our gear
to leave, was that they were hoping that the trap would work long enough
for creatures on the other side to learn that coming through the door was
going to get them catapulted ten to twenty miles out to sea - an
unpleasant surprise.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"My point is this - what is strong enough to create a
portal, lasting for weeks without any apparent loss of strength, that the
top priests of a Temple of Balance cannot close? I don't think ordinary
men are involved with that.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"That's truly ALL I know, and I hope I haven't offended
Potah's priests," he quickly made a hand gesture of placation.
"But, again, this was across the island a few days away as the crow
flies, but nearly a week away by road and cross-country. The mines were
over 30 miles north of the cities, and I'm pretty sure the one at this
end was about 50 miles north of Port Vahear, through mountains most of
the way. And this setup here just doesn't feel like the same kind of
situation."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
I just don't see that importing non-natives to work mines -
especially in Vahear, and especially a non-human race. They value
themselves above anyone else, especially other races - my apologies,
Captain," and he nodded to Dorhak.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Ardackle looks up semi bored by all this, if they want
dwarfs wouldn't it make sense they need dwarfs to do something humans
can't?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea sat listening to all the back and forth on what to
do. She wondered if she should speak up on anything, but really didn't
have any ideas that would help out, so she stayed silent. One thing she
could agree upon though is that she would definitely be better off as a
silent scout and watcher for when the action was needed rather than with
the party directly. She thought it would be interesting to disguise
herself as a dwarf, knowing she could get the look of one, but never the
smell.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Besides if she did that, she would not be able to have any
of her things with her, so being unseen is much better. Of course she
will have to be careful too and make sure she is watching Unali's back at
the same time, though shouldn't be too difficult.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea does make an offer though, "I can transmute some
paper, or a plant into looking like shackles that can even make the right
noise for shackles, but would be easy to rip off or break out of. That
way no one would mistake them or see through them."
Raddok considers Arawn's question, and thinks back. Finally, he
shrugs his shoulders. "Slavery - I don't know. I didn't see slave
markets on the streets while I was there, but I don't know how crimes are
punished there. I do know their king presides over trials in Fomoria,
& I know a priest of Enki presides over trials in the colonies like
Vahear, but I don't know what punishments he decides upon for what
crimes. I was too busy avoiding the attention of the military and
security forces, and got along okay by being polite to everyone I met. I
generally met with working folk, and had no experience with the upper
class. It wouldn't surprise me if some form of slavery or servitude could
be a punishment for certain crimes, but again, I saw no public slave
markets.

Raddok continues, Their attitude of superiority over all
others does seem to suggest that slaves might, hmm - may be, possible.
But not obvious to visitors, like my friends that I made there - none of
us talked about seeing slaves. And I would have remembered that, I'm
sure."

Update...Sat/Mon
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM:
Wow. About 19 posts. Tried to finish Monday but tons of posts
and same for Tuesday. So finally done. So looks like we have
a plan. This update is big enough without doing new stuff so I'll
just move us to shore next update. Its already 9 pages. So
either if I have time Saturday will finish or Monday. I wold try
Friday but too early since this is late. If no gear note given as
below will assume take every item with you. Sorry its not more but
I figure best to get this out first and its big.
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM: Notes
-
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Arawn As leader
of group. Dressed with a face cowl for ears? If Dorhak stays on
ship who goes to shore initially? Though guide may be upset waiting for
the slaves after weeks of waiting.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Dorhak- So
shackles are illusions. I assume a guard can carry your
stuff. Oh you are staying on ship right? If they waited months
making them wait for dwarfs might upset them. :)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Fremea if not
being a dwarf you tag along with Unali or in air or
such?<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
