"Not bad," Natalia says to Mithril with a smile.
Miriam...She doesn't really know if the shadow over the cleric has lifted or not. But there are too many questions that need answering.My webcomic!

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Kurt waits by the last dead ogre, waiting for signs of the live one stirring before he hews the head from this body. The blood from the others has stained his hand and his axe, his eyes are unhappy with having to do this. If anything, that makes the methodical way he took the heads off the others even worse.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
The Ogres breathing changes ever so subtly, it's calm vanishes as it begins to awaken in seconds furious at the ease of its imprisonment.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
"I don't want to watch this." Mithril was glad her expertise was not needed in this case. Instead she walked over to the edge of where the ogres had come from, just north of the group and pulled out her waterskin, pouring a little into her hand for Whiskers to drink. He stared into her eyes trying to comprehend the feels of exhaustion and fear slowing ebbing off of her. At her insistence he drank a little of the water, nose wrinkling, before lying in her lap.
Fearful of more ogres approaching she listened and watched for signs of approaching enemies.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
The moment Shiny notices the ogre coming to, he starts to speak in common, all without looking at the prisoner. "Make sure we get them all. The orc chieftain said he'd pay sixty gold for every ogre head." He doesn't know if the ogre speaks anything but Giant, but it's worth a shot, and he might recognize the word orc. The interrogation would start soon, and that is when the real lies would have to come out.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Upon Shinys dialog, the Ogre immediately begins to struggle against the rope, staining its giant form. He yells something about your mother and a goat in Giant.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
"Don't see why, don't want to either," Natalia says as she stands by Mithril. The whole plan is leaving a bad taste in her mouth, which she supposes is somewhat hypocritical but her opinion's not about to change.

"Good morning...to you too," she says in a slightly sardonic tone as she hears the ogre waking behind her.Last edited by CoffeeIncluded; 2012-10-02 at 04:31 PM.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Shiny turns to the giant, smiles, and starts speaking in the ogre's native tongue. Those who understand Giant notice that his speech is more stilted than his usual effortless dialect, though he seems to relish the chance to practice the new language.
"Ah, so you are awake. And you see how we have killed your allies- no one is coming to save you."
"Now is the time for questions. What do you know of the orc's war against the ogres?"

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
As soon as Shiny speaks up, Kurt nods. With a vicious overhanded swing he disconnects the head from the neck, picking it up and adding it to the pile. "That's the last of them. Except our friend, over there. Will the orcs want him alive?"

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Natalia flinches. There's a difference between self defense and this kind of trickery. She asks Mithril, "Walk and talk?"

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Taking Mithril's hand, Natalia walks over to the other side of the area, where Miriam is. She thinks about asking the cleric if she wants to come to, but is afraid of making things worse.
"Violence before, but different violence," she says. "Thanks...Whiskers, okay too?"My webcomic!

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
"I think he is, he doesn't seem to like the water much, but maybe that's because it is old. I don't quite know what happened to him in Hulburg, and that and all this" she gestured to the events behind them"scares me. Kurt almost died, we all almost died. She looked at Natalia, fear reflecting in her eyes "Thank you for not...just thank you."

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
"Holy water for a holy weasel?" Natalia jokes. But it doesn't break the tension much. So instead, Natalia tries to say, "But still breathing, not bleeding...I...I don't like this either. Violence making more violence, and a dark...shadow over us all. Even Miriam." But then again, she always had that poison brewing underneath. Mithril doesn't have that. "Won't let it get you," she promises. "Let Mithril stay Mithril."
She thinks she knows what Mithril is thanking her for, but isn't quite sure.Last edited by CoffeeIncluded; 2012-10-02 at 07:23 PM.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Miriam is looking at Shiny with empty eyes. She flinched a little when Kurt decapitated the ogre she killed before shaking it off.
She looks at the ogre, expressionless, having no understanding of what Shiny is saying.
She pays no attention to the rogue and the wizard moving away.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Natalia stands silently by Mithril for what seems like days, wondering if there's anything she can say that wouldn't screw things up. They're going so well...

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Kurt frowns a little at the pair walking off, then shakes his head and directs the frown at the Ogre instead. They can take care of themselves and if not...they have voices.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Mithril spoke out of the long silence "You think he is holy? She pulled Whiskers off her shoulder and looked at him cradled in her arms. His newly white fur stood in stark contrast to the surrounding woods. "As for a dark shadow, I think I have the least risk. My past is happy, and I freely chose this way of life."

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
"Ask for Holy Water," Natalia replies. "Winter weasel, holy weasel."
She folds her arms. "Still choose? Choose again and change? Or...Stay the same?"
Would I change?Last edited by CoffeeIncluded; 2012-10-06 at 10:31 AM.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
As Mithril and Natalia walk off away from the Giant, Natalia can spot the soldiers from Hulburg off in the distance, at least two score minutes away...
As Shiny talks to the Ogre, the Ogre is furious, responding with venom in his voice....<Giant>"Filthy Gnome, I spit on you!"<Giant> The ropes burst despite being expertly applied as the large Ogre gets to his feet.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Tapping Mithril's shoulder, Natalia points at the figures far down the road. "Reinforcements, later than needed. Not for...Linwood though," she says. Mithril's warm against the brisk spring air. It's quiet here, and helps Natalia calm down. Mithril seems more at ease too.
"...Hey...M-Mithril..."
SpoilerListen: (d20+7)[16]
The serene atmosphere of the woods is broken, along with whatever Natalia was going to say, as she faintly hears the ogre shouting and something tearing behind her, where everyone else is.
"...Oh no...Burst ropes?"Last edited by CoffeeIncluded; 2012-10-06 at 11:16 AM.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Kurt readies his axe and steps forward, ready to cut down the Ogre if he goes to attack, despite the weariness on his arms from the last battle.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Hearing the commotion behind her, and having the moment ruined, Natalia draws her shortsword, takes Mithril by the hand, and runs back to the others, shouting, "Torn rope, don't tear any others!" She hopes they can stop this fight before someone gets hurt, again.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Kurt walks to just outside the Ogre's reach, grinning viciously as he brandishes his axe a little.
"Come and attack me, then! Avenge your puny friends!" He laughs and spits suddenly. "The orcs pay well for stupid ogre heads like yours!"

Mithril ran towards the group, casting one of her few remaining spells as soon as she was close enough <Draconic>"Flare!"</Draconic>. A bright light flashes in front of the ogre.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Shiny takes a brisk jog backwards once the ogre's ropes break. "Save your vengeance!" he snarls. "You'll need it once the orcs invade! Who do you think paid the bounty for your friends' heads?"
SpoilerOgre is still flatfooted so no need for a Tumble check. Walked back to a few feet behind Kurt.Last edited by Admiral; 2012-10-06 at 01:15 PM.

Re: IC II Toes In The Water
Valen pulls out his thick now and readies an arrow as he moves to get between the Ogre and the young girls.
Spoiler
Move
Readied action to shoot on hostile action.
Miriam stands up and readies her mace and shield almost annoyed yet releived with the distraction from her downtrodden thoughts.Last edited by Zman; 2012-10-06 at 02:19 PM.
