PsyKater · October 6, 2013

OoC: Thanks for QMing! The Scroll of Inspiration disappeared somehow as well.

**JimBee** · October 6, 2013

QM Note: The scroll of inspiration is there right by the gems in Amma's inventory, and Hoke has been edited.

Welcome to the Fields. Reread the first post before heading out, there's been a new addition. :thumbup:

Jebediahs · October 18, 2013

"Oh my, yeti. How ever do you tolerate this weather? You must be melting with the heavy fur coat."

**JimBee** · October 18, 2013

Hybros entered the gates to the Fields, noting the other heroes. A big yeti, comparable in size to the ogre Skrall. An elderly man with crucifixes and other religious symbols hanging around his person and the cart he carried with him. A mysterious masked being with a tattered cape billowing behind him. An armored dwarf with a formidable-looking ax. And a middle-aged dark-skinned man with a wizened appearance.

"Well, then... ehem... Hello everyone, I am Hybros. I suppose we must begin right away. I suggest we make our way to the intermediate areas of the Fields right away to build up our Glory Points, then come back to the easier locations and complete the farmer's challenges. So that would make the Corn Maze or Apple Orchard good places to start, eheh. Does this sound good to everyone? Ehehm..."

PsyKater · October 18, 2013

Amma found herself back in the Fields after a very short time. She greets the pig and the goat and looks around in her party. "Nur, is that you? Funny that we meet again here. You look quite ... different since we lost contact a short while ago."

"Hello. I am Stigveladi Kötturin, a powerful and experienced dwarf. You can call me Krakenwhacker or Titan Smiter as well, whatever suits you. You can see that I have a lot of battles fought in this place, together with my earthen fellow here."

While she speaks, she tries to avoid the attention of the Monk.

"Each start is good for me. Does anyone want to borrow my Medal? If not, I will equip it instead of my collar.

Palathadric · October 18, 2013

I enter the Fields of Glory, gazing in awe at the unusual scene around me.

"Fascinating place," I mumble.

I am a little less fascinated when I see the party I'm questing with.

A demon, a weird brown fellow, the odd dwarf, another massive beast, and...well...Sylph, the druid.

How did I manage to get myself into this, I wonder, looking around somewhat frantically.

Then the dwarf begins to speak...

"I should like to borrow that medal, dwarf. If you want I have this Ethereal Cloak which would probably suit you much more than it does me...or these Soothing Slippers, but I'm not sure if you're one for meditation."

I say my piece and then keep quiet, still feeling uncomfortable.

I imbued my Topaz and Opal into my Dual Staff.

Wow, I'm the lowest-leveled hero here. How'd that happen?

I lean over to Sylph and whisper.

"I know you may not use it much and all, due to your need for healing us, but do you want to hold onto the Heavy Flail for now? I can't see myself using it whilst in these Fields, and besides, you're more apt to hit than I am."

"Perhaps we should try the Apple Orchard," I venture to say more loudly, but still timidly.

Perhaps I should try to blend in. Wouldn't want one of these magic wielders or the whole lot of them turning on me.

The Druid arrived in a whisp of Shadows.

"Sure, I'll take the Flail." Stated Sylph, taking the Flail.

"I would also like to borrow the Medal. Advancement is my goal, and I will pay you for its use. Sorry, Monk. Do you believe we can agree on a compromise? "

"Hello. I am Stigveladi Kötturin, a powerful and experienced dwarf. You can call me Krakenwhacker or Titan Smiter as well, whatever suits you. You can see that I have a lot of battles fought in this place, together with my earthen fellow here."

En Sabah Nur grins, spreads his arms wide and gives a small bow. "Indeed, I find outfitting myself in a new piece or two of clothing after a long quest quite fulfilling. And judging by your new appearance, perhaps you share those sentiments? You're looking rather rugged." Nur turned towards the rest of the group. "The Krakenwhacker is correct, the two of us have much experience with this place."

"Well, then... ehem... Hello everyone, I am Hybros. I suppose we must begin right away. I suggest we make our way to the intermediate areas of the Fields right away to build up our Glory Points, then come back to the easier locations and complete the farmer's challenges. So that would make the Corn Maze or Apple Orchard good places to start, eheh. Does this sound good to everyone? Ehehm..."

The mage walked towards his party leader and knelt in front of him. Nur's brow furrowed. "What are you? I'd rather go to the apple orchard. I'm afraid we'd lose sight of you too easily while navigating the maze." He stood up, looking up and to the left while stroking his chin. "Of course, we could lose you just as easily under a pile of falling apples."

Costy · October 18, 2013

"Oh my, yeti. How ever do you tolerate this weather? You must be melting with the heavy fur coat."

"You get used to it."

"I agree that the Apple Orchard sounds like a good place to start."

Palathadric · October 19, 2013

Does somebody else want to borrow one of Pretzel's weapons? He'll probably be mainly using the Dual-Staff as most of the enemies we will be encountering will probably be Beasts and Vermin and suchlike?

**JimBee** · October 19, 2013

"Of course, we could lose you just as easily under a pile of falling apples."

A little taken aback by the man's chivalry, Hybros touched the brim of his hat. "A hero, like you, what else? Heheheheh..." He said it with a twinkle in his crimson eyes. "I can take care of myself just as well, but if it is the consensus then we will head towards the Apple Orchard. As soon as everyone is ready, of course."

PsyKater · October 19, 2013

"Hmmm, I never tried the Medal myself. I suggest the following: I will keep it for the next battle. Then the Monk can use it for some battles in exchange for the Cloak. And then the Druid might have it. We will settle the bill at the end. Agreed?"

I will equip it instead of my collar.

"If it's all the same to you, would you mind if I use it for the first fight? That would enable me to equip three artifacts from the next fight on."

PsyKater · October 19, 2013

"Alright then, I change my eqipped Medal for your equipped Robe."

Palathadric · October 19, 2013

"Thank you," I say, accepting the Medal of Glory and Equip it and loan Stegveladi my Ethereal Cloak and my Diamond.

"In case you can use it," I say, referring to the Diamond.

"Anyone else want to borrow one of my weapons? If not, I'm good to go."

Eyes wide with enthusiasm, Nur smiled with all his teeth showing. "Wonderful."

"Anyone else want to borrow one of my weapons? If not, I'm good to go."

"No thank you, holy man. But it was a good idea to bring your belongings along in a cart. Plenty of open space out here to maneuver it. I rely on a magic satchel myself. I am ready to go as well."

PsyKater · October 19, 2013

Stigveladi equips the Ethereal Cloak and nods with a thanks to the Monk for the Diamond.

"That works with me," nodded the Druid, bowing slightly. "Let us begin this massacre." Stated the Druid softly.
