Day 5 The Adventures of Bingle BoinkWe are invited to a feast. At the feast, which we attend, we are led to a table with five other elves: Esey, Swofa,She, Lanee, Mdalfe, and Guvada. We notice a floating table and chairs in the centre of the hall, apparently it is for the Emporer and nobility. We learn about the Lorien Havashar from the Feral Isles. The royalty descend from the ceiling ot sit at the floating table. Trax grumbles something. Then meat and ale is brought. The peace at dinner doesn't last, however, the Emporer declares war on both the Humans to the North and the Orcs to the East. A number of human warriors who helped defend Imperial Ward's walls leave in bad spirits. Aldurin, a minstral adventurer, enters. Sid says he might be a spy which provokes Lanee to draw a dagger. I draw my sword and block the attack (take 1pt of damage). Sid apologizes. Lanee gives me an antidote for the poison that was on the blade. At the table we notice that one chair is empty. This is for the empress who died. Dergom of drma report. Bars come down after Trax. We are surrounded by Elves. Trax continues and we are taken to a room. I nap. We eventually make it back to the Prancing Pony for some much needed rest. Something about a shop, Trax, something, stick to inn. Elf something to Trax. Gem red surrounded by vines, this is the amulet given to Sidonia. It is highly magical. We wait for night and during a full moon we hold the gem so that the moonlight shines through it. We can make out the shadow of a person moving inside as if he / she was in a library pulling books and reading them, calm, reassured, strange. Sidonia holds it close to the ground and close to her eye, no difference. There is no reaction from the shadow inside to speech. Orc Hunting We go East for some more Orc hunting. We go past the Imperial Ward dump and find a village burnt to the ground. We follow the tracks of the Orcs I see two orcs guarding a cavern entrance. We scout the area and find no other Orcs. I attack. I sneak up on them and cut the head off one before he can yell. Stib kills his as well. We look inside the cavern. Krog is in first with me at his side. I tell Krog to wear Orc clothes to blend in, he is a half Orc after all. Krog takes the lead and we see two Orcs. We hide and they approach two others playing cards. Krog approaches and then charges and we all attack. I kill one with one blow. Then another. Then another (3 total). Then Krog does the same. Stib gives us potions of healing to help us recover from the fight. We find all of 48 coppers. We find a metal door. We open the door and I go in. 6 floating spheres are in there and they attack. I see more than 10 in total, they are Spheres of Absolute Evil (SoAE). I run and get through the door and the others close it. Immediately after we see 6 dents in it. |
