GM: Ack. I believe I mentioned how far his village in last
update but I may be wrong.

From Bess: [Re: Posts]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>sorry, missed
latest posting (#13); will send update by tonight.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. But if it comes in time will add to this
update.

From Rocky: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>As others talk
with the boy Rocky looks around to make sure that this isn't an ambush.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>[Previously he
would have used his detection on the rock given to him. As usual he will
cast Detect once per day in a spot where water might have driven rocks.]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Ahh changing sop from Camp detects to water.
Ack.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Varo: [RE: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>[I am assuming we
are now almost in the middle of the forested patch to the NE of the town
we started from? (about hex 21.32 or 22.33 on the map?) Let me know if
I'm off. - lol] (I copied the map, then made enlargements of the southern
end, the middle & the northern end, so can read the hex #'s, even if
don't know what all the terrain symbols are.)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Varo says to the
boy, “Don’t worry, we won’t hurt you. …
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack On the game site I have the legend for all
those symbols and what they mean in the links. To be honest unsure
what exact hex I've had time to update map. I will try to update it
next week. Sorry.

<x-tab> </x-tab>
Juno scans the horizon looking for this boys home. Perhaps
his village was raided and is on fire. Juno looks for signs of this. Juno
also looks around for any enemies as well.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
He says To the guide, “Are there any towns nearby?”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Marusk shakes his head, “many villages and small town of
20-100 folks all over the place. Many are nomadic, some seasonal as
they hunt for game and some are permanent. I'm sure there is one
nearby but I don't know them all.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Varo says to the boy, “Don’t worry, we won’t hurt you.
What’s happened in your village? Which way do you think you came from?”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
She dismounts to talk with him, and drops her horse’s reins
to the ground, a trick she taught the mare equivalent to tying reins on a
post,so the mare stays in place. She glances at her mare for signs of
alertness to something unseen, then quickly casts Detect Enemy &
looks carefully about for possible hidden persons, creatures or traps.
She draws her bow & readies an arrow, although intentionally, the bow
does not face toward the boy. “Please steady this young one, Earth Mother
Ernalda,” she prays silently. “Keep my companions from harm.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
She turns back to the boy, listening to anything he might
say.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The boy's eyes widen and he goes jaw slack a bit. “It
worked! I asked them,” he waves his hands around and upward as if
implying a prayer, “then sent you to me! To help us! Come I'll
explain as we move!” He then moves some distance away and picks up
a backpack he had hidden or dropped.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The party gives chase and Varo detects no one and others see
no one around as well.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
“My village...” he huffs as he moves fast over limbs and
bushes, “is a couple miles that way to the east..probably no more than
3...I left a bit ago hope to find help...”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
HE tosses the pack over his shoulder and probably supplies
as smell of bread can be detected faintly.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
“Two days ago...some ugly trolls entered our village..they
ransacked our small storehouse which isn't a city store but a community
chest.....my village has maybe 82 people and maybe 30 good men. But
some are old or not skilled....there were at least 8 trolls but some
think there were more in the forest....” He suddenly stops.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The boy looks down sad. A tear runs down his
cheek. “They hurt some. They went to the old Elfs shack and
probably killed the elf...but ...but...they took my sister..” He
wipes his cheek then moves quickly east. “I vow to kill them if
they ...hurt her. The people...our so called friends refuse to
help....they figure its too risky. The trolls killed my uncle who
we were staying with. I am happy you guys can help and kill those
nasty trollls!”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Jaren asks, “what is your name boy.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
“Suron d'ulk. Lets move fast please!”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Veren sighs, “maybe we shouldn't risk it as well. 8 or
more trolls?”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Marusk seems to ignore the fearless leader, “I knew a
d'ulk. He fought with me in the Carrion Valley battle.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Without stopping the boy moves fast east leaping over a log,
“I had a uncle who was in that battle! He is far to the west now on
some action or another.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Marusk nods, “a honorable man.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The boy asks, “it'll take some time to get to the
village. Want to go to the village or the shack and kill those
smelly trolls?”
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM:
Actions? Comments?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Next Update...Wed or Thursday.
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM:
So do you guys want to help or go north to old path to escort the grumpy
man. I will do book keeping. Map updates mon/tue. My schedule
has changed as I go early retirement part time. Thur-Mon 8-230 and
off tue/wed. So I'll have a few more hours each day free
time. So this may improve timely updates.
