[Recap] - None<br>
[New Stuff - Current Situation]<br>
<br>
From Chion: [Re: Comments about Aren]<br>
Chion considers the comment for a second, then decides it<br>
is not worth his time to debate tactics with Aren. He lets<br>
a smile slip when Farseeker comes to his defense, and<br>
mumbles in his native language, "Miracles never
cease.<br>
Balances have shifted, but they remain true."<br>
GM: Ack. Aren hasn't showed his nobie side till now so its<br>
bound to have come out sooner or later :)<br>
<br>
From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions<br>
Time for Z'leyra to cast EL0 invisibility on herself (when<br>
out of sight of the priestess), then disarm/attack the<br>
priestess from behind. <br>
GM: Ack. We'll see what happens. <br>
<br>
---------------------------Actions---------------------------<br>
<br>
Time: Estimated 7:15am-7:30am - Morning Day 22<br>
<br>
[Level 7]<br>
<br>
[Hallway]<br>
<br>
[Aren ignores Chion and both him and Farseeker head down<br>
the hallway to explore..]<br>
<br>
[Ceremony Room]<br>
<br>
[The bound man turns his head toward Caladan in
recognization.<br>
He then speaks in Zen'dail.]<br>
Man: "Yes, I am Zen'dan! This foul witch and her men<br>
captured many of our people through treachery and
deceit.<br>
Many have already been slain at their hands. I do not<br>
fear death, but I would die an honorable one, on my
feet,<br>
facing my enemy! Free me now and let us end her evil<br>
together!"<br>
<br>
[Amazingly the Priestess ignores the man babble in some
tongue<br>
she doesn't know.<br>
<br>
[Caldan considers magic but realizes the range is too far
for<br>
his magic at 45 feet. It would not be effective. He
could<br>
close in but the man would be killed before he could reach<br>
him. So he tries to slowly lift his composite bow from<br>
his shoulder latch.]<br>
<br>
[Z'leyra considers going invisible to help the man since<br>
Caladan is resorting to missile fire. She glances at<br>
him to get a sign of him using magic but he shakes his<br>
head in a negative ever so slightly. She sighs and<br>
returns her gaze on the two in the center of the room.]<br>
<br>
[Hallway]<br>
<br>
[The party in the hallway explore some of the west hallway<br>
quickly while others remain near the door to the Ceremony<br>
room listening and waiting. They know from the situation<br>
it could be dangerous for the prisoner if more enter<br>
the room.]<br>
<br>
[At one point Xian whispers behind Caldan in the door
frame<br>
if he needs help. Caldan shakes his head then turns and<br>
looks at Xian as if trying to figure things out.]<br>
<br>
[By the end of the quick exploration the party finds two<br>
more doors. One in north at F18 and one in south at K17.<br>
<br>
[During the exploration a guard suddenly appears from<br>
some corner alcove heading the way of the party. He<br>
must've heard the noise. The male guard is using<br>
mace, shield and wearing leather.]<br>
<br>
[Triest is the first to spot him. With crossbow on
shoulder<br>
he rushes the surprised guard and swings scimitar but<br>
fails to hit. The guard swings mace but Triest barely<br>
misses the strike. Thig is next to spot the guard and<br>
flies toward him but does not attack right away. Aren<br>
sees the guard next and rushes him. He swings his<br>
sword but fails to hit. The guard swings on Triest<br>
and hits but the armor protects the strike. Triest<br>
thrusts scimitar at the guard and hits doing a minor<br>
hit but 6 points of damage. The impaled guard falls<br>
to the ground. Thig checks his pulse and finds none.]<br>
<br>
[Ceremony Room]<br>
<br>
[The Priestess glances over and sees Caldan raise his<br>
composite bow. She quickly shakes her head and says<br>
"No!". Then she closes the dagger to the neck of
the<br>
man and a dribble of slight blood falls down the neck.<br>
Caladan slowly lowers the composite bow. The Priestess<br>
begins to murmur a few words in some tongue noone in<br>
the room knows. The man turns back to her and spits<br>
in her face again. This makes the Priestess look down<br>
and just smile. She then takes from the blood bowl<br>
a finger of blood and marks a X on the man's chest<br>
right over the heart. She completes a few more phrases<br>
of the strange tongue.<br>
<br>
Z'leyra decides against invisiblity since it will take<br>
possibly too much time. She figures the ritual is just<br>
about complete and gets bold. With her will she tries<br>
to bring courage up to max and suddenly prepares her<br>
feet and knees for a bolt.<br>
<br>
The Priestess looks at the trio near the door. Then<br>
turns her head to each statue and mumurs a few more<br>
words in the tongue. She then looks down at the man<br>
and says in climan "Your death will lead to our
glory<br>
once again! Be honored barbarian." The man of
course<br>
does not understand her. She then moves slightly back<br>
on her knees and positions her body now right above<br>
the left arm of the man.<br>
<br>
Z'leyra takes her chance and bolts straight for the<br>
Priestess.<br>
<br>
The Priestess lifts the dagger away from the neck and<br>
now holds it in both hands. She quickly raises the<br>
dagger into the air above her head.<br>
<br>
Caladan sees his chance and raises the compsoite bow<br>
again but suddenly sees Z'leyra in the way. Unali<br>
also gets bold and suddenly leaps forward but Z'leyra<br>
is one step ahead of her.<br>
<br>
The man looks up at the Priestess nad decides this must<br>
be it. His death. He remembers his family, his tribe<br>
and his friends. He suddenly gives into the conclusion<br>
he will likely be dead in seconds.<br>
<br>
The Priestess murmurs another phrase.<br>
<br>
Z'leyra suddenly speaks "The Immortal Ghova commands
you<br>
to stop!" in Climan.<br>
<br>
At the same second the Priestess lowers the dagger...<br>
<br>
But halfway stops when she hears the words. She turns<br>
solem faced at Z'leyra and discovers her running toward<br>
her. Z'leyra raises her shield and axe now only 8<br>
feet from the Priestess.<br>
<br>
The Priestess just smiles and turns back to the man.
Then<br>
raises the dagger so as to get a full strength strike in<br>
again.<br>
<br>
[Meanwhile...]<br>
<br>
[Jordi hears the words of the female and ponders the
situation.<br>
Is she telling the truth? Is the creature? He decides
what<br>
to do.]<br>
<br>
Creature: "If I wanted to i could've returned and
slaughtered<br>
your people. If those humans are your friends. I am<br>
rare in my species. My kind is spread out and
disorganized.<br>
I seek to bring order to them out of the chaos. But
first<br>
there must be disorder and knowledge. Knowledge leads
to<br>
power. Power leads to order. I see from my window<br>
a few moments ago that other female elf creature. She<br>
seemed concerned. Is she worried about you? Maybe I<br>
don't need you. Maybe she will be sufficient
enough?"<br>
[The creature bares his fangs in a gleeful smile.]<br>
<br>
[Meanwhile...Level 7 - Ceremony Room]<br>
<br>
[Z'leyra leaps forward the last few feet. She tries to<br>
dodge one of the candles on the ground but instead<br>
runs smack into one with her foot. The candle is<br>
knocked over. She regains her footing and continues<br>
onward. Suddenly she notices the dagger in the<br>
Priestess hand glow in a eerie blue sheen. She<br>
leaps past another candle and with the axe in right<br>
hand tries a wide swinging blow. She swings her Axe<br>
at the arm of the Priestess. But the slicing blow<br>
goes upwards too much at an angle and misses the arm.<br>
It slices right past the dagger and misses entirely.<br>
With shield in left hand she uses her strength to<br>
tilt her body back to the left and swing the shield<br>
right at the side of the Priestess. The shield does<br>
smack right on the shoulder of the Priestess. But<br>
it does no damage just knocks the Priestess to the<br>
side ever so slightly. But the Priestess does lower<br>
the dagger fast. The dagger flies through the air<br>
with the blue sheen and impacts....on the floor just<br>
about the shoulder inches from the heart and the man's<br>
left ear. The shield strike was just enough to knock<br>
her off alignment.<br>
<br>
Z'leyra swings the axe again and this time impacts<br>
right on her chest. The slicing blow misses her<br>
arms but hits her chest. Doing 3 poitns past her<br>
armor. The Priestess yelps in pain. By this time<br>
Unali has reached her and come behind the Priestess.<br>
She knows knocking the woman out is chancey so she<br>
tries a killing backstab with both daggers.]<br>
<br>
GM: Unali I assume this is correct per previous<br>
activity. Since subdual is more risky than a simple<br>
killing blow. <br>
<br>
[Unali brings back her daggers into a stabbling blow<br>
fast toward the back of the Priestess. Both daggers<br>
hit (roll 13 for each hit wow same #s). Both severe<br>
hits. Both daggers hit lungs or liver. Six and 10<br>
points of damage total. The first wounds the second<br>
kills the Priestess. The Priestess falls flat<br>
over the man who wonders what just happens...]<br>
<br>
[Caladan now comes over and pushes the Priestess over<br>
and makes sure she is dead. She is. He kicks<br>
the dagger away and 3 seconds later it loses its<br>
blue sheen. Unali looks around to make sure no one<br>
else is here while Z'leyra leans down and unties the<br>
prisoner.]<br>
<br>
[The trio see the staff the Priestess used before and<br>
notices a Ring on her right hand now.]<br>
<br>
[The man stands and shakes the hand of Caladan then<br>
nods to the females..]<br>

<br>
Yes the combat came down to the Shield. If she was not welding<br>
the shield the man would'e died in the strike. It came that<br>
close and that lucky. Failed in the axe roll but got a simple<br>
hit in the shield. Course Unali helped as well.<br>
<br>
Time Elapsed - for the Party about 25 seconds. For Jordi who<br>
knows. Ok. So I know :)<br>
