image.png.5fed1596f7aedbf8c89b856b629288fa.pngAs the two cleaved masses of tentacles and sinew twitch on the ground, a faint, distant voice can be heard, ever quieting, as if moving away. It whispers out, "the ribbons unravel within and without. Within and without." This last repeats several times, becoming quieter and quieter each time until it is just a memory. The sound of an old, squeaky door can once again he heard. It creaks again then shuts with a jarring crash.

Vaylerin cries out claps his green hands to his ears and slumps to the ground, sobbing.

Moments later, the normal sounds of the Dreadwood fill the area once more

Lighting

It is pitch black here now, Lighting Level is at -10.
Drez and Kelvan can see ok in the Dreadwood during the day, but at night they need to be near some form of illumination. (both have Night Vision 5)
Maria, Zurana, and Hinami all have Continual Light Objects that illuminate fully within 2 yards, and then make it a bit easier to see farther out, but not great.

HP: 10/10 || FP: 8/13 || PI: 0/5

Conditions/Effects: Will-1, Healing Spells


Seeing that they appeared to be out of combat and that Vaylerin seemed somewhat worse for wear, Maria spent some time attempting to cast Relieve Madness on him, hoping that will help the situation.


OOC: Relieve Madness cast for free due to proficiency.

Drez looked down at the writhing mass of tentacles and flesh. He shuddered and brought Splitter down on it again.

"What the hell are you? Die!", he cursed.

Zurana vigorously wiped the ichor (sap?) from Wolfrazor's edge as she got her breathing under control. She swiftly looked over her companions, nervously worried that one of them had been injured in the brief melee. But, no, all seemed to be hale enough, if rattled and ragged like herself. Unwilling to delay much longer, Zurana swiftly took up her travois and pointed ahead with her weapon.

"Let us not tarry. I want out of these cursed woods now." Waiting long enough to get a confirming look from Kelvan and to see that her friends were behind her, Zurana quickly led the troupe toward the edge of the Dreadwood.

Hinami shakes his head and returns the two swords to their sheathes. He then picks up the Naginata, looks carefully at each of the downed creatures - and gives each a really hard poke with the sharp end into the brain/head (hoping they will stop writhing around).

 

He'll then pick up and follow the rest, hopefully leaving this place behind.

image.png.5fed1596f7aedbf8c89b856b629288fa.pngWith Drezghl's and Hinami's final attentions, the defeated forms stop moving. Maria's spell helps calm Vaylerin enough that he is able to travel again.

As the party hurriedly makes its way along, the two heaps lying on the ground each give one last shudder and somehow both regain their original form, albeit mangled and mauled by blades. The dead, dark eyes of Thimas and his hound watch but do not see as the group majors their way toward the edge of the Dreadwood.

It is nearing midnight before the group finally reaches their previous camp site at the edge of the dark and twisted forest.

 


OOC

Its 1130pm. Camping here or pushing on to Burle? It was a four hour ride here in the daylight.

Hinami looks around and shakes his head.

 

"I do not wish to camp near this place. I suggest we push on for an hour, and then camp and rest."

Finally, a decent place is found to camp near the road. Everyone is exhausted and after setting up camp as quick as possible, eating a quick bite, it is time for sleep.

Before anyone actually beds down for the night, though, suddenly, several tall, dark figures appear at the edge of the campsite.

 


OOC

Everyone is now down an additional 1FP for being up SO LATE, and 1FP for the midnight ride.

The Will penalty is now wearing off now that you're out of the Dreadwood!

ああ、今は何ですか?

(Ā, ima wa nanidesu ka?)

 

Hinami makes the comment as he rolls out of his bedroll, grabbing his Katana (in the sheath) as he rolls.  He will then slowly walk towards the edge of the camp (and the shadowy figures).

 

“Good evening, gentlemen.  Is there something we can help you with?”

Kelvan slinks back into the gloom. away from the approaching figures. He squints to try and make out more about them.

Drez stared at the figures and tried get a count of how many there were. He stood next to Hinami and prepared himself for another fight.

Irontusk gives a couple of happy sounding squeals and Junior lets out a gasp of relief.

"The Dreadwalkers!" he exclaims joyously!

The newly arrived Elves introduce themselves as the protectors of the Dreadwood. The said they were drawn to the nearby area of the forest by some mystical disturbances and saw tracks left by both Junior and Irontusk so they followed. They see Vaylerin and seem concerned. They ask what it was the group encountered and listen as the tale is told. They give thanks for dealing with the matter and offer to lead Vaylerin back to their settlement deep within the wood. They ask that a message be passed on to the Loggers Guildmaster in Burle to delay any further logging for at least 2 weeks so the Dreadwalkers can get a better idea on what is going on. They promise to send word before two weeks are up. They all seem quite socially awkward and give Kelvan narrow-eyed glares, but other than that, they seem to be fairly pleasant, if not simple and utilitarian, folk.

If any one has any questions for them, feel free to hash that out, if there are any details you choose to leave OUT of the story, please let me know what that might be.

Hinami watches the activities, shakes his head and announces to no one in particular "I plan to sleep until noon".

 

He will then curl up in his bedroll and attempt to sleep.
