Even if Ennoc may not judge all, surely he has the right to judge those who call themselves his. But Raguel is the one who gave them orders. He has wandered from the light into the night.

Probably if the Sons had had more provisions, they would have used them to ensure their survival. Without the horses, travel is slow. The heroes make their way to the river, to ensure that they do not get lost. Across the rapids, on the far shore, they see a party of orcs, huge in numbers, also heading north. The sun gleams off their armor. They carry swords and spears and shields. The heroes keep pace with them, not entirely sure who they are, or where they're going. OoC: We have a little bit of time to kill, and by little bit I mean probably under 24 hours (huzzah for pacing things correctly for once!). So, maybe venture into the dark waters of role play, or don't, you know, either or. I will move this along ASAP. Edited April 8, 2014 by Zepher Quote
Chromeknight Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Did I not heal Benji? Perhaps we ought spread the provisions we have around so that if any one of us falls, there will always be another to raise them up. How many pheonix essences and incenses do we each have? I have only one essence and no incenses. Nerwen turns the seal over and over in her hands, pondering her path pensively. Quote
UsernameMDM Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 "Well, it doesn't look like they are going to a picnic. I suggest each one of us prepares immediately." Hoke PREPARES the following items for consumption: (He will have them out to use if there is a fight to be had. I am assuming there will be time to defuse any potential conflict before it happens) Dragon Scale Smelling Salts Mead Should have 1 Phoenix Incense that Benji gave Hoke. Quote
Chromeknight Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) Nerwen opens her satchel. She draws out and takes the Double Rainbow (lucky,encouraged,poisoned,confused), a remedy, an ambrosia and smelling salts. Her eyes shine with the effects of multiple drugs. He he he! 'm a high elf! Geddit? High? He he he! Ahem. She also tries infusing the seal of the warrior priestess with ether in an attempt to make it more reliable for the upcoming battle.

UsernameMDM Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 Viewing the orc army one more time, it doesn't look like they are traveling in peace. He looks at this preparations and makes a few more. Hoke prepares a few more items: Mulled Wine Ambrosia Will Hoke be allowed to actually consume all of these before a battle if it happens? If not, please considered that he has already consumed them and remove them from his inventory. Quote

The Orcs have also apparently been amassing over the evening, as the heroes can see a war party not quite on the opposite bank, but coming over the hills. The war camp they previously defended in totally abandoned. To their right, from the east, they can see banners and horses running around. The High Kingdoms is amassing a force as well. The base of the pylon is noticeably quiet. Only two figures, talking in hushed voices, stand there. Heweyrt turns to grin at the heroes. "Ah, knew you'd make it, if only barely in the nick of time. Heroes, this is King Valentino, who's release I had absolutely nothing to do with, of course." "Heroes." Heweyrt looks at the amassing army to the east. "It looks like Raguel doesn't plan to stand down. Too bad about that." He glances around. "And Hamilton and Speros never quite made it back... things aren't looking too hot for us, are they?" "Looks a lot like a hack and slash, operation, hehehe." "I don't understand what happened to my kingdom in my absence. When I left, they were a noble people, prepared to leave the past behind them. But perhaps I was just lying to myself. Blinded by my own views." "Religious zeal, that's what happened." "Gocklo." Heweyrt shoots him a look. "I'm sure there are still men who are prepared to look past the past, Valentino. This bridge will be a success, assuming that we can stop the Orcs and Paladins from tearing each other apart, and that the bridge itself is still standing at the end of the day." "Heroes, the bridge is the prime objective. Without it, this will have been for nothing. My kingdom will not only survive this day, it will come out stronger. I demand it. I don't know what has come over my son... but the bridge must survive." "You remember your original objective, I'm sure, heroes? I brought a horse here. One of you may ride it. You must protect the bridge. Nothing else matters to me, and seeing as I'm paying you, nothing else should matter to you." Do the heroes have anything to say? Edited April 10, 2014 by Zepher Quote
Chromeknight Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Nerwen bows. Your Majesty. I am glad that you are returned safely. If I might ask, since you yourself will not be joining us, is there something you have that is unmistakably yours that we might carry as proof that you are alive, well and that we act in your name? I fear Prince David will listen to little else, especially with the apostate paladin pouring his words in your son's ear. Speaking to Hoke and the others, Perhaps Hoke or myself should take the horse, being up the front of the battle? Nerwen again looks at the seal looking if the ether use had any efffect. Quote
UsernameMDM Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) "It's good to finally meet you King Valentino. If we could talk Raguel out of this foolishness, we could win this battle without drawing our swords. Do you exert any influence over the man?" "You may take the horse Nerwen. I work better on foot and am confident in my abilities to keep up." Did you add a Phoenix Incense into Hoke's inventory & update with items Hoke consumed? Edited April 10, 2014 by UsernameMDM Quote

Speaking to Hoke and the others, Perhaps Hoke or myself should take the horse, being up the front of the battle? Nerwen again looks at the seal looking if the ether use had any efffect. Nerwen spends one ether to see if the seal responds, but it does not. Perhaps if it was a seal of Ethereth... but it is not. "You think I will not stand with you?" Valentino looks out at the army. "Where would I go, m'am? To my own men?" Valentino waves his hand at the war party. "Those are not my men. My men would not move against this bridge. These are my son's men, and the Paladin's men. I would hope that I have sway from my son... but my son has never understood my work with the bridge. He does not understand that we must make peace with the Orcs for our own good, our own growth. I know he will not slay me. But I doubt also that he will give me this force. I have been gone for a year, and for that year the bridge has been poisoned in my son's mind and in my people's minds." "What image would it give if he abandoned the bridge?" Heweyrt shrugs. "If you have a life's work, you live by it or die by it. That's the way it is, heroes." Heweyrt glances over at Valentino. "Besides, we don't know exactly how Raguel will greet him, and what agents Raguel has placed in the army." "It's good to finally meet you King Valentino. If we could talk Raguel out of this foolishness, we could win this battle without drawing our swords. Do you exert any influence over the man?" "You may take the horse Nerwen. I work better on foot and am confident in my abilities to keep up." "I've never met the man. My son sent for him after I was captured. And besides... though my son loves the Lord of Light above all, I'm not of the same mind. I love my people above all. I don't need the Lord of Light to guide me. I need my own head on my own shoulders." Quote

Zepher Posted April 10, 2014 Author Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) OoC: Where exactly did he offer it to you? I've looked for a while, and I can't find it. Doesn't mean I don't think it's not there, just can't find it. EDIT: Did actually finally find it - was looking too closely at the end of the battles when really it was on the page following one.

Flare Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 OOC: Sorry guys, I've been gone on a trip. However I'm back now for good (hopefully). Also Nerwen didn't need to heal me since I have Natural Respite, but whatever. "If brute force or intimidation is needed, I could go. However diplomacy might be needed more. However, I can run extremely quickly, almost as fast as a horse, when I am a beast. I can accompany any of you on horseback and attempt to keep at your pace. Shall Hoke and I go, in that case?" Quote
Chromeknight Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Nerwen bows to King Valentino My apologies, your majesty. Of course you will accompany us. Since you have just returned from imprisonment, is there anything you need for equipment? What is your area of expertise and skill? Nerwen spends a moment praying over the seal, observing carefully if that would make a difference, prepared to spend longer if necessary. Quote

OoC: One ether will be returned to her. Also, just in case it's not clear, whoever ends up with the horse will be perma-hastened, and the horse may draw some blows, as in the last battle. Heweyrt's horse is stronger than your previous horses, as well. "I think that the time for negotiations has passed. We already tried to reason with the priest. He would not listen to us." Nerwen bows to King Valentino My apologies, your majesty. Of course you will accompany us. Since you have just returned from imprisonment, is there anything you need for equipment? What is your area of expertise and skill? Nerwen spends a moment praying over the seal, observing carefully if that would make a difference, prepared to spend longer if necessary. "I am sure that my ally, King Speros, has led you to believe that all the Kings of the North are warriors, but I'm afraid that isn't the case. I will stand strong and fight if I must, but I have no great combat skills of my own. I am a leader of men, not a member of the army." King Valentino looks up at the bridge. "The King that this bridge was named after, Augustus, has a famous story about the day before he died. He came down to this very river and looked over at the opposing army. It was much too large to defeat. Orcs as far as the eye could see. His generals urged a retreat, but he refused. He told them if they fled now, they would die elsewhere later. 'If we flee,' he said, 'then the Orcs will think that the Kingdoms are powerless and cowardly. We will die, tomorrow, and it will not be to win a battle, but to win a war. If we flee, then each and every soldier that the Orcs meet along the way will also flee, but if we fight, then each and every soldier will fight. They'll fight for us, and fight for their families, and fight for their home, and fight for what's right.' And the next day, he and his men were slaughtered. But he was right, and the Kingdoms did win the war, and never gave any ground due to cowardice." A war horn sounds in the High Kingdoms camp. The heroes can see figures mounting up. "Up to the bridge, heroes. It's time." "Well, someone is going to die for what they think is right today, hehehe. Just hope it's not us." The heroes climb the pylon and get to the top of the bridge, meeting the few defenders the bridge already has.... Quote
