<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Votes:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Loot division: Option "b"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Magical Creatures: I honestly don't know
enough about what the creatures are or what powers they may have. Ben'Dar
will stay neutral on this one.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Actions regarding the flying ship:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Ben'Dar looks around quickly to see if there is
any siege weapon on any of the warships that could be used within the few
minutes we have. Is there a catapult, ballista, or something similar we
could use to try to shoot the ship before it can attack us? If so, he
will help the experienced sailors to move it into position, load it, and fire it
as quickly as possible.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Failing that, do we have any magic that could
be used to attack from long range? Didn't Sava mention she was skilled in
weather magic? Can she make a wind or a storm or something to push
them away? Or perhaps the powerful elemental staff could be used to knock
them down and sink them? (Sort of along the lines of Z'leyra's
suggestion)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Failing both of the above options....Ben'Dar
sees no choice but to dig in for a vicious fight. We have time to organize
an ambush. They can't know that we are in control of the mountain
and cave can they? Maybe we can keep silent and get into position
around the inside of the entrance to the cave. When they enter, we drop
nets/rigging/sails on them from above, set their ship ablaze, and unleash
everything we've got on them before they even know what's
happening?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Conversation with Z'leyra:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>"Are you from Ticasi then? Isn't that
part of Donara? Judging from your story and from your obvious ability in
combat that I have seen with my own eyes, you seem very resourceful.... for a
woman.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>I am a Zen'dan horseman from the vast
plains of the Fel'oros people. But I am no brigand such as those you
encountered. I am a warrior whose honor is questioned by no
man.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>I am skilled in training and riding horses and
have desire to use my skills to make my place in the world. I will own
many horses someday; train them too. My warhorses will be the envy of all
the world.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>You say you sold these horses in
Porta? I have no affection for the people of Porta. They hate
my people, thinking they are so much better than us. They are
nothing more than a bunch of thieves and pirates, no better than the scum of
Clima. While I understand why you sold those horses there, I would not
choose to have any business dealings with those people.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>Yes...people will come from all the lands to
purchase my horses someday, but I will only sell them to those who are friendly
to the Zen'da.</FONT><FONT face=Eurostile size=4>"</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
