"'Jakual Rime-Striders'? How can that be? Those are Front Giant warriors... weren't we just now considering the human tribes to be evil for having an alliance with the same giants?" I think about what else was said. "Perhaps the humans are right to fear your kind, if even your loyalis...

"How quickly do you expect to hear back from your superiors? You've caught us in the middle of a funeral, and..." I give a shudder of revulsion, "the food will be ready soon." I move closer to Skyseeker. "Actually, we should probably go back into the cave anyway. There's not...

"I pray to my God every evening for my magic." I'm worried. "So be it. Let these demons come." I glance at Skyseeker, "Will you and your friends help fend off whatever comes for me, as you fought with me against the dragon? These here seem resigned to this fate, and unwillin...

I blurt out, "How do they know who is studying magic? Can they sense it?" Fear turning to anger, "The Unknowable cannot allow its faithful to be hunted for their study." One hand reaches down to caress the head of the mace on my hip. I gain strength from the holy symbol embossed ...

I'm also confused, but otherwise don't know how to act.

"They have a shaman, a cleric, eight warriors, 4 berserkers, and another."

"Greetings, Dainty Ones. I bring news from the Ghost Bear clan. We have discovered that the Shattered Stone clan and the Mist Wolf clan have been recruiting allies among the Frost Giants far to the West. They plan on going to war with your people, but didn't wish you to know of it until they we...

I look to the northwest, while taking out my Rod. I'm ready to cast a spell if necessary.

When it's done with my countrymen, I gesture my familiar on to the halfling. I also take their weapons and stab them into the thawed ground where the pyres were.

As I stand watch, the fire elemental incinerates Barak's body to ash. It moves on to the three Frusvolk. I begin singing the funeral songs. These are mostly a litany of each person's great deeds, with some announcements to the afterlife that great heroes are about to arrive, and should be welcomed w...

"Of course."

"It's... weird to have so many different beliefs with which to contend with. But that would keep everybody happy."

I instruct my familiar to start with Barak's body.

I don my new belt, then tuck the two wands into it. Then I head to the cave's exit to check on the fury of the storm.

"No disrespect to the dead, but we're running out of time to send them on. This dragon was meant for you all? His replacement may be here soon to finish the job."

"I am interested in: "An incense burner, elaborate gold work, inset with 4 star sapphires..with platinum symbol of the Unknowable on it. "A walrus hide leather belt, polar bear fur trim, gold work on the buckle with silver studs. "Wand of Acid Arrow "Wand of Find Traps "...

I return to the fire. "The bow is magically enhanced as well. So much so, one with no training could use it as well as a trained warrior. In the hands of an expert, it would be most puisant. The ring generats a magical shield around you, protecting you from harm." ooc - longbow +4, ring of...

I come out of my tent, carrying the magic shield. "This shield is magically enhanced, but with no other special powers." I pick up the bow, and go back into my tent.

ooc - +3

"I would be happy to look over this scroll."

(ooc) - Let's skip to the morning. I can do the identifying them. - (/ooc)

"Are you able to learn more about any of these items now? Or shall we wait until after our meal and camp is fully pitched? "I have done all that I may until after my evening prayers. Then I will be able to learn of three more. If you can research five more after breakfast tomorrow, that s...

Sigrid wrote:I cast Identify on the rod.

"This is a Lesser Rod of Empower Spell. It is very much useful to me. May I keep it?"

"My companions preferred to walk. They said that only women ride horses." "I can help you identify these items. I can do one of them now, and three more once I've prayed to Rrzknth this evening." " Norkkun's Screaming Writh Slayer is known to me. Any clan chief would give up...
