Lotham listened to the stranger's account of the Shadowfell eagerly. It took several moments before he recognized the admonishment that had been included in it. Blushing, he stammered, "Oh, er, yes, right. I, uh, my name is Lotham. Lotham Pendricky. And you are?" It took a second, but Lotham did eventually realize that the stranger had already introduced himself. "Oh, um, yes, right. You've already said. Everan, you said. Everan Meliamne." He smiled sheepishly and added, "I was paying attention, you see, just rather, er, intrigued by your experiences in the Shadowfell. So, um, I don't suppose you know anything about Zorzula's Rest. You said something about a resting place for a certain artefact?"

Lotham immediately perked up at the mention of the Shadowfell. "Shadowfell?" he blurted out as he popped out from behind Mercedes. "I have heard stories, but am not sure what to believe. Is it true that one is overcome with a sense of despair while there? And that the Raven Queen has spies everywhere? And that there are giant spiders with wings that drop webs like nets and snatch people up to feed their kids in nests like birds?"

Welcome back, PK - I hope it was a good vacay!

Lotham eyed the stranger with unbridled fear suspicion. He took a step back so as to be somewhat behind Mercedes and offered timidly, "Um, I suppose we should be asking who you are." He looked around around at the others for support and added, "We do outnumber you, you know." He then ducked behind Mercedes so as to be completely hidden and shook nervously, wondering what had overcome him to speak so boldly.

Has she done anything lately? Whatever happened to her?

Lotham had been interested in exploring the outpost until Mercedes pointed out that it might be dangerous. "Oh, er, um, yes, well we definitely wouldn't want to split the party," he stammered. He looked over at Mercedes. "There's probably nothing there, do you think? I mean, some goblins probably raided it, but they wouldn't hang around, would they?" He bounced uncomfortably from foot to foot, clearly hoping somebody would tell him that it would just be a boring scientific expedition.

Vithka will open the door to remove any issue of meta-gaming. Poor weasel. It would have been more interesting if it had been a dire wolf. But it was a fun opportunity to use the psionic nature of Vithka's mage hand and to try to cause some havoc!

Lotham read the runes aloud, feeling pretty pleased with himself. After he read it, he started as he realized he recognized the words. "Oh! Deep Duerra is the duergar goddess of conquest and psionics! She's often referred to as Queen of the Invisible Art!" he exclaimed. "This would be a prayer to her!" He then thought a bit more and added, "You know, there used to be an ancient duergar mining outpost in one of the Sword Mountains east of here. It was taken over by mind flayers centuries ago, though." OOC Religion

Her mind raced as she thought about what to do. She let a moment pass, so that the duergar might let their guards down a little and then summoned her mage hand, which was also invisible, and tapped the one closest to her on the shoulder from behind with it. She then jumped as far away as she could so that there wouldn't be obvious footprints right next to the guards. She then reached into her Bag of Tricks, grabbed a fuzzy ball and threw it to the spot she just left, hoping that would create enough noise for the others to hear, either from the summoned creature or from the response of the duergar. Mechanics Whew! Doing a lot here. So, first off, Vithka will wait just a bit until she notices the duergar loosening their grips on the weapons just a little. Then she will cast Mage Hand using her Githzrai Psionics, so no components necessary and it's invisible. She will use that to tap on the shoulder of the duergar to her south and as she does, she will jump as far as she can to the east. Her Strength is 10, so I think that's 10 feet? She will try to do so as quietly as she can (Stealth roll below - 23). Then, she'll use her Bag of Tricks and throw the fuzzy ball to the spot where she was. Roll for the animal below - weasel! Okay, the weasel is not exactly that threatening a creature. Ah well, we'll see how they react. Also, if I've done too much and you think the duergar might react to something before Vithka can complete all this, I apologize.

Oh man. What to do. Okay, I'll figure something out and get a post up so everyone else can get back involved.
