Statue Be Damned

The swordswoman crouched, breathing heavily. She stood ready to slice the Rahib if he started to get away from his two pursuers.
“Why are mages so hard to kill?” muttered Nicolai. “There really is no need for this, if they’d just go easily.”
Still swinging his scimitar energetically, the Siswa persisted in his attempt to [...]

Putting Down the Panther

Maruc pressed his attack hoping to keep the cat off balance. But he was conscious not to over expose himself as the blood flowed freely from the nasty gash in his side. Couching his wound he flung his shield arm out hoping to confuse it and spun on his heal in a 360 degree swing [...]

A New Ally?

Dodging Saeth’s dagger, the Rahib struck the elf with his mace, knocking her backwards. Despite being caught off guard and now facing two opponents, the Ylari did not seem to be intimidated in the least.
Suddenly, a dark-hooded head poked up from the small stairway leading to the tiny room up the stairs. Eyes widening, the [...]

Battle in the Temple

‘What luck’ thought the Elf, who had never expected the sorceror to be so close. She grabbed the Rahib with her free hand, attempting to restrain him before he cast a spell. “Not a word!” she practically yelled, shoving her dagger towards his face.
Back up in the temple, the fight against the Rahib’s panthers continued.
“Are [...]

Face To Face With The Rahib

Praying to Halav that his armour would be proof against the creature’s claws, Maruc punched his shield out and leant his weight into the charging creature hoping to stun it and maintain his balance. He tried to wind the creature with his flail as they collided. He wondered if the sudden silence would confuse it [...]

Another Battle in The Temple

From their rear vantage point, Nicolai and Saeth clearly saw that the panthers did not materialize from thin air into the room, but rather emerged from a hidden trap door behind the altar. Hearing the Ylari words of the Rahib, Nicolai aimed at the hatch, hoping the mysterious man would emerge. Saeth circled behind the [...]

The Rahib’s Pets

Maruc, hearing nothing of the Siswa words cloaked in the aura of silence summoned around the coin he held in his hands waited patiently scanning the room awaiting the Rahib.
He idly envisioned casting stones across the still lake outside his old cloister imagining them skip across the surface. Subconsciously spooned the coin in his hand [...]

Back Into The Temple

Feldard was pleasantly surprised when his suggestion seemed like it might work. He held back as the others prepared themselves to head back into the temple room.
With half his thought on not giving too much away to the Siswa, Miklos turned to the others, “If you would be so kind as to go ahead and [...]

Calling the Rahib

Feldard nudged the mage and quietly whispered, “Get him to call for the Rahib inside the temple, I’ll wait outside the door” .. with my crossbow ready and waiting he finished silently in his own thoughts.
The Mage was about to give up on the poor fellow when the dwarf made his point. “My word Feldard, [...]

A New “Friend”

Miklos shook his head and he smiled. If one could smile in a rhetorical fashion, this was it. He turned to the others “Ahh, I seems my idea has only partially succeeded. Still I shall continue though.”The Mage returned his gaze to the Siswa Guard. “Forgive me my friend, indeed you are correct. I and [...]
