Heroica RPG - Quest #113: Mystery in the Mines

[Siercon and Coral]

Siercon spoke softly to Thalion and Alexander. "You guys have fought with this faction before. I would have no qualms drawing swords behind you right now if you think we can take them... Though this Delfrin commander seems dupped >.<"

Then speaking again to the rest of the hoard. "Then tell us. What. Are. You. Doing? You beat around the bush, being cryptic deceitful. Your history is that of chaos and you expect us to trust your secrecy. Spit it out already."

[Fred Daniel Yam]

"Would diplomacy be any help?" William asks as he tries to ask "what are yous doing here?"

[The Legonater]

I don't expect you to trust anything. Heroica has trampled in the Kingdoms before, saving those they deem worthy and crushing the rest. If I tell you our plan, you'll go about in hopes to ruin it. Morcrass and his boss know full well that any sort of fabricated peace will not last, I can tell you that. Their plan involves peace through domination, through control. It is the only way.

I realize you cannot hope to understand our actions. So many of you are struck with hard opinions on what is 'good' and what is 'not.' But the ends justify the means, and if freedom is the goal than people will commit any atrocity to achieve it. It is one undeniable, and may I say a fundamental quality of the people on this world. When faced with extinction, every alternative is preferable. Surely you can understand that.

[-obelix-]

Siercon spoke softly to Thalion and Alexander. "You guys have fought with this faction before. I would have no qualms drawing swords behind you right now if you think we can take them... Though this Delfrin commander seems dupped >.<"

Thalion turned to Siercon, and answered in his usual, calm manner, "Indeed we have, for the Hand attempted to assassinate Duplovian king in order to prevent the peace treaty. As you have seen, they failed. But they are terrorists. They take great care to always use a phrase "freedom fighters" when addressing themselves, but there is no freedom in what they are doing, all of their actions are governed by Morcrass and other shadowy figures - who, at least in my opinion, have their own hidden agendas; however being drones as they are, they cannot see that. Also like every other terrorist in the world - they are fanatics, so they cannot be reasoned with." He turned to Delfrin Commander, "If you truly do not know who you are dealing with, I will leave you only my words and your judgement to decide who is at fault here and whom you should trust." He turns to the Norgh's commander, "Same goes for you, I will not try to persuade you to help us, but I will give you one chance to at least stand down and let us deal with the Hand."

OOC: Sorry for the absence folks, its been a really busy week at work; but now the weekend is here and so am I!

[Siercon and Coral]

To William: "Well it seems not. Not now or later from what they have said. They are anti heroes, Duplovian, and Delfrin. Their 'permanent peace' is not meant for any of us."

After listening to Thalion: "Thanks for the verification, I figured as much. But you're right, they are who they are."

Siercon was ready to fight.

[The Legonater]

If it's a fight you want, it's a fight you will have. Uglrukh, go. Get to the Great Ladder.

I fear we will be meeting again soon, Heroes.

Col, use your head. Don't fight with these terrorists.

I... you seem wise, heroes. I will not fight.

Then stay out of the way. Norghs, see how many of these lunatics you can take to the boss.

Siercon fought from the front back line and Stabbed the Norgh Soldier 1 with his lullaby wand aiming at his side. "We got this guys!"

Edited November 30, 2014 by Siercon and Coral

[-obelix-]

Thalion casts a Darkness spell at Norgh Soldier 1 (and 2) from back row.

Quellir and Dovanna attack Norgh Soldier 1 from front row.

Battle Order:

Thalion - darkness spell at Norgh Soldier 1 (and 2), back row

William - Norgh Solder 1, back row

Alexander - Norgh Soldier 1, back row

Siercon - Norgh Soldier 1, back row

Quellir - Norgh Soldier 1, front row

Dovanna - Norgh Soldier 1, front row

[Siercon and Coral]

* If Norgh Soldier 1 is killed the subsequent attacks are delivered to Norgh Soldier 2 *

William shoots Norgh Soldier 1 from the back row

[The Legonater]

Results of Round One of the

:

>Thalion vs. Norgh Soldier A (B) - Shield: Razzmatazz ((13+30)x2=84 damage; all enemies stunned, Thalion earns 30 Gold)

>William vs Norgh Soldier A - Damage ((10/2)-14=0 damage)

>Alexander vs Norgh Soldier A - Aim ((15x3)x2=90 damage; Norgh KO'd)

Dovanna vs. Norgh Soldier B - Critical Hit ((20x2)+20=60 damage; 66-60=6 health)

Siercon vs. Norgh Soldier B - Hit (Norgh KO'd)

Quellir vs. Hand Commander - Damage (20-5=15 damage)

The heroes charge into battle yet again. Thalion fires a burst of magic that damages all of their enemies. Stunned, the first Norgh doesn't notice William and Alexander's assault until it's too late. Seconds after the first Norgh goes does, Dovanna and Siercon kill the second. Quellir, shocked at the lack of targets, turns to the commander. He is unable to do anything, however, as the the Hand Commander swings first and cuts deep into his flesh.

[Siercon and Coral]

"Quellir, try fight in the back row for a bit. Take a breather." Siercon said grabbing as he started to advance.

OoC: I think he'll be KO'd on the front line if he gets hit at all. Unless we're trying to take advantage of maybe him coming back to life after the battle since no one is affected by him not getting exp? He won't die will he? I assume he's going to cost a potion to heal regardless unless we just throw him into battles to get KO'd with 1hp each time lol?

Good thing we stopped those Norghs quick enough.

You're telling me. Last thing I want is to be chained up again.

So you're Col Lachterson, are you?

Yes...

And how do you feel about the Hands now?

Gotta admit, I have my questions, though I'm sure you do to. I'm with you. If you have any questions, fire away.

[Siercon and Coral]

"What do you know of their plans? And also... Who is Morcrass boss? Pretty sad that they are willing to commit 'Any atrocity' to seek their ends" Siercon said to Latcherson.

Siercon searched the heavily armored Hand Soldiers and Norgh, to see if any of their armor was retrievable.

[-obelix-]

Thalion picked up the gold and items the enemies dropped and looked around the party, "Anyone has any specific preferences for the items from this pile?"

[Siercon and Coral]

"I do not. No particular interest. nothing seems suitable for a battlemage." Siercon replied

[The Legonater]

It seems I wasn't nearly in the loop as I thought it was. That said, I know their plan involves a chamber they recently mined with the help of the Norghs. On your map it's that large cavern to the north and then the west, it accessible from both passages. As for the employer, I don't have any clue. That's really hush-hush, even for the higher-ups. I didn't even know about Morcrass until now. I think the employer's in charge of something, something big. Their plans are equally big, from what I've gathered. I just... I don't realize how I could have been so duped.

[-obelix-]

"I do not. No particular interest. nothing seems suitable for a battlemage." Siercon replied

"Alright then." Thalion hands Handy Longsword and 20 gold to William, Norgh Axe and 20 gold to Siercon, Norgh Pick and 20 gold to Alexander, and keeps Handy Shield and 15 gold for himself. Then he turns to the Delfrin commander.

I don't realize how I could have been so duped.

"Morcrass and his lot are masters of deception and manipulation, just look at how they brainwashed the Norgh; so you shouldn't trouble yourself with it too much - join us and help put a stop to their plans." He turns to the rest of the party, "Lets head out to Large Cavern! The to the north and west."

[The Legonater]

Party update tomorrow.

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

The heroes, feeling the pressure, hurry forward. As they round the corner to their destination, they find themselves blocked by a familiar face. Or at least, something familiar.

I am afraid your journey comes at an end here, mortals. Turn back, or perish.

[Siercon and Coral]

"Latcherson, these men confessed to willingly trying to cause all this chaos and fought us earlier. Let's see what you've got" Siercon said stepping forward to attack.

[-obelix-]

I am afraid your journey comes at an end here, mortals. Turn back, or perish.

"Time to fry, priest!" Thalion said as he pointed both Alpha and Omega towards the amphibian, ready for battle.

[Fred Daniel Yam]

"You're outnumbered, we can take you anyday"

[The Legonater]

Fools. We shall show you the light, else what is beyond us will instead.

That means kill them, right?

Smite them!
