ariel Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 Sorry, I was jinxed (two days in a row) ;) I don't mind if Cordelia catches up to the group at the jailhouse... time can mush a bit. I can adjust my post to have Dalin see her arriving. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitleyrr Posted September 12, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 For clarity’s sake: the two guards with the horrific wounds outside of the jail are the two men you all spoke with the night before: the captain’s own men. They did not kill each other but were torn up by something. The guards who are dead *inside* the jail are the ones that were reported to have killed each other.

Karma Kameleon Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 So there are 4 dead, not just 2? Oh dear - that's a massacre. 😢 so @PureChance@Peacemonger Were you both okay with sticking around near the jail so Cordelia can join the group or has the group left for the graveyard before her arrival? Whatever the answer is, posts will have to be updated for it all to make sense 😅 Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureChance Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 (edited) Sure, way I see it it slightly depends how quickly Cordelia travels. I'm happy for her to have caught up if we'd prefer that (,and it certainly seems easier for our DM to have one group as well) Perhaps she arrives just as they have turned to leave, explaining why two of the party didn't talk to her, only the Alert one noticed. Thanks for clarifying about the guards, I wasn't sure either, but did think the injuries you described were not from killing each other...

Peacemonger Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 I'm good with it. Also had Jozelle float the idea if we want to check on Lady Ittia first, or dare I say split up, but we'll see.

Karma Kameleon Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 Cool 👍 I edited the end of my last post to reflect that. Had Cordelia approach and speak to the group instead of the guardsmen. Will likely get an other post up this afternoon to respond to Joezelle!

Whitleyrr Posted September 12, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 I’m fine with Cordelia having caught up - no worries. And yes: 4 dead, two town’s guards and two of the captain’s personal soldiers. The captain’s men died of the grievous and horrific wounds; the town guardsman inside were the ones reported to have killed each other.

ariel Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 I tweaked Dalin's last post too... to not have her immediately walk off. I think it flows ok now! Go team! Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariel Posted September 12, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 12, 2023 @Whitleyrr I don't suppose the graveyard is on the way to Lady Ittia's home or vice versa? Just wondering at the possibilty of swinging by one on the way to the other? Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitleyrr Posted September 13, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted September 13, 2023 No, her home is in the fancy residential district up the hill. The graveyard is at the bottom of the hill, behind the church in the original section of the village.

ariel Posted September 13, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 13, 2023 Dalin posted her preference (the graveyard) but if y'all would rather go to see the Lady, then she'll come with you... trying to capture a bird's attention on the way... lol.

Peacemonger Posted September 13, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 13, 2023 Think Alban may be the tiebreaker. Although Jozelle is fine with splitting up, she'll oblige Dalin's request to stick together.

ariel Posted September 13, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 13, 2023 Dalin could be convinced to split too... but she wouldn't be looking for a fight, just looking to see where he went. Thinking though... I'm not sure Alban + Dalin to the graveyard would be the best idea. P.S. Is it odd how the barbarian is the one who doesn't want to fight? :D Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karma Kameleon Posted September 13, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 13, 2023 Cordelia can be swayed either way, she will listen to her allies in this situation. Though, she is particularly looking to Alban for direction. Not that she doesn't value the women's opinions!! But she holds his opinion in high regard with his status as a Lord (it also helps that she finds him cute). So, while she has an appointment with Lady Ittia planned and feels compassion for her, it is more of a social affair. So this new, crucial development is important enough for her to postpone that for a later time. You know, when there isn't a dead raising killer on the loose. :P On a side note, I feel that the shift in Cordelia's demeanor may seem sudden, yes she generally avoids danger, runs from it even - until the adrenaline of anger outweighs the fear. She's basically in mama bear mode, for lack of a better way to describe it lol. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureChance Posted September 13, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 13, 2023 Alban will vote lady Ittia, but it'll be tomorrow before I can post in afraid Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
