Dungeon Squad!

[Viginti_tres]

Slowly opening my eyes i lay on the ground for a few seconds stunned before leaping up and almost attacking Skvard.

After regaining my bearings i turned to the others and said "I could hear you. As soon as i hit the ground you were happily rid of me. Did you not think to bury me, or at least to check my pulse?"

"You wonder why i don't respect people, well its because they leave you dead in the middle of a forest."

Looking towards the ground i attempted to find any trace of a trail that i could follow. Not finding anything i turned to the others.

"I'm normally a great tracker, but ahh i am a little groggy still and my visions a bit blurry. Do you think you could have a look for me?"

I pulled the robe tighter around my body. Whatever that thing was i knew i was going to kill it, the urge for vengeance was overpowering.

Its only fair, it did kill me first.

Sarah smiles laughing a little as Konsgiver complains, but then begins to shake her head when he get to the part about tracking the wild-men down. “I don’t think that’s a good idea. They probably went home and considering how easily they whipped you I don’t think the three of us could handle a whole village full.”

[Viginti_tres]

"From the looks of it i didn't do to badly. I'm fine now and i think i got him pretty good. I can't take them on my own though, so I'm happy to wait. That wont be the last of it though. " I said angrily.

Calming i looked up at my fellow castaways.Where to then? Do we continue along the path, knowing that it may lead to more of...um.. whatever they are?

[jojobulu]

Sarah looks up at the sky. "It's going to be dark in about an hour. We should look for a place to make camp."

[jojobulu]

"Let's go back to the trail and get as far away from this spot as we can in the next hour. Will make camp at sundown. It's not going to be cold tonight so we should be fine outside."

"Would you guys rather go farther inland or back toward the beach?"

[Viginti_tres]

"Well we have made it this far alright so i see no need to backtrack." I said.

"We must be getting close now anyway."

[Jolly Steve]

You head back to the path and keep walking up the path. Almost immediately, you hear human voices on the path ahead of you.

[F.L.]

Skvar tries to be quiet and listens.

[Viginti_tres]

With a sigh i leaned in trying to hear the voices, while remaining hidden and quiet myself.

[jojobulu]

Sarah plants herself in the middle of the trail and draws her sword.

[Jolly Steve]

A tall elf walks around the corner and stops. She draws her rapier and shouts "I found them!"

[Viginti_tres]

I looked up at the intruder, stunned. I recalled how this all went down last time and backed behind Skvar and keeping an eye on Sarah.

"Be quiet!" I yelled, before realizing the irony.

"We aren't worth the trouble we would cause.
Whoever you are and whatever the reason you wanted to find us, both are inadequate. We are three adventurers and you are simply one. " I spoke, trying my best to intimidate.

I continued "However we are not always merciless. If you were to turn your back and leave, I'm sure we would allow it."

Gazing intently at the stranger I wiped one hand down the side of my robe, the other held in front of me, ready.

If the Elf makes any hostile movements with the Rapier / Turns its back to me or any other sign of weakness i would like to Defend Myself / Attack.

I will try and get the magic right this time.

To Cast :(d12)[2]
Damage: (d10)[10]

However if the elf initiates dialog only then i would like to continue that first.

[Jolly Steve]

Two almost identical humans appear on the path behind her.

She stares at you.

"Well...right then. That's your final word is it?"

[F.L.]

"No, I think my final words will be 'pour me another one, I can handle it.' Much as I'd enjoy a glorious battle right now, surely survival's hard enough on this island? Why were you looking for us? Are you also survivors of a shipwreck?"

[Jolly Steve]

"Yes actually, we are."

[jojobulu]

Sarah puts her sword away. "Let's be friends?"

[Jolly Steve]

The elf doesn't. "You should come with us."

[jojobulu]

"Where? Why? Quit being so mysterious and just tell us what you want."

[Jolly Steve]

"Look, it's getting on for dark. We've got to get back to the village. If you want to come with us we should leave now."

[Viginti_tres]

I lowered my hand while eying the newcomers suspiciously.

"So are you actually giving us a choice? or just the illusion of one?" i asked.

"I'm guessing that means you're not going to do what Sarah asked and tell us something. Well i will go wherever these two want, we stick together." I said while gesturing at Sarah and Skvar.

"What do you guys think?"

[F.L.]

"I say we should go to even the hint of a warm fire and a hot meal, and follow them."

[jojobulu]

Sarah looks at the elf. "Quit pointing your sword at me and I'll be happy to come with you. Otherwise I'm going to assume you want to fight."

[Jolly Steve]

She lowers it a bit.

"You put yours down first."

[jojobulu]

(I put it away a few posts ago)
Satisfied that the elf and her friends are not going to attack, Sarah agrees to go to the camp.

[Jolly Steve]

(sorry, so you did).

The elf and the two human women gesture for you to take the lead, and you set off down the path.

[jojobulu]

Wary of having strangers at her back, Sarah will walk slowly and let the new comers over take her.

[Jolly Steve]

They slow down to keep you ahead of them.

[jojobulu]

Rali turns to her new friends, "You guys should take the lead. We don't know where we are going."

[Jolly Steve]

Hmm..OK, one of you walk up the front with us, the rest can follow".

[F.L.]

(I'll walk in front, I'm armored)
