3SC's Ironfang Invasion IC

[3SecondCultist]

Before the Ironfang can even register what's happened, Rask's second arrow impales him right through the chest, all but ripping open his ribcage where Gilraen and Narek's magic opened the red path. He tumbles out of sight with nary a sound, and just as suddenly as it appeared, any threat to your group is at an end.

"Well shot, all of you," Aubrin says as she comes up from nearer the back of the column. Her wooden leg seems to have been troubling her a bit, but she silences its creaking with what could very well be a mock glare. "With warriors like you defending us, we'll make it to safety yet. The way to the Trading Company should be open now; although I don't much like the idea of Kining grouching at us, we'll need all of the weapons and armor we can get our hands on. Besides, she was the one working on the repairs to Phaendar Bridge. If anyone knows how to dismantle the damned thing, it's going to be her."

The current owner of the Phaendar Trading Company is a cantankerous and scheming dwarf and the town smith Kining Blondebeard, who was exiled from Glimmerhold for crimes she refuses to divulge. Despite her greed and lack of compassion, she lives up to the letter of agreements and turns out fine metal goods the town relies on, and so most of the locals accept her inhospitable nature as 'a dwarf thing' and leave her be. As Aubrin mentioned, she was the one called upon to perform the repairs on Phaendar Bridge as well.
