Fetching Feldard

The priest rolled his eyes, the stubbornness of that dwarf was going to get him killed, or at least captured. Well with all this bickering over his head it was impossible to concentrate on his meditations. A flicker on anger passed his otherwise serene face. He sighed deeply, rubbed his calloused palms over his face, [...]

New Masters

Hasan said “the strength of the Elyria shall be with you, dwarf,” to the slouching dwarf and the two elves returned to the chamber below the altar room. The others followed.
Feldard watched as Nicolai and the elves left him, and once they were out of sight, he let himself surcome to the seriousness of his [...]

Intruder!

“Go on! The longer you folks dally, the less patience I’ll have and less likely you’ll find me here waiting. ” That said the dwarf let himself slide down the wall once more. “But for now I’m good to just rest here and await your return.”

Siswa Lost, Siswa Found

The dwarf pushed himself away from the wall and scowled as he noted the lack of Siswa. “They were right here! Confound those damned long-eared, willow-limbed… ” the rest of his cussing he cut off as he realized he was in poor company with Hasan and Saeth. “Seems they’ve been retrieved…whether for good or ill—who [...]

Where Are They?

Saeth strolled alongside the battling Dwarf, chuckling her amusement at his stubbornness, and its ill result for him. Once safe outside the shrine, she finally put a sentence together. “May I help you bandage those wounds? Oh, but this will be a fine addition to the tale…”
The dwarf merely glared at the warrior elf and [...]

Flying Off the Axehandle

Maruc glanced around his wounded friends and determined which required the most urgent healing. Ignoring his own wounds, which were the most serious of the group, he performed healing rites upon Saeth and Nicolai, who he had judged to be the most injured among them. Once finished, his companions were restored to full health.
“That [...]

Onward?

Saeth gasped at the speed that the others dispatched the interlopers. Shaking off the last of her meditations, she quipped, “I guess this is just what happens in a Dwarf-built temple.” She turned her gaze on the newcomer Elf. “Hasan, know you the way about, where these may have come from?”
“I claim no glory here [...]

Breaking Bones

“Oh great, more bones to smash,” muttered Nicolai.
Hasan looked at the skeletons in horror. “What devilry brought these foul things here?” Drawing his scimitar, he strode toward the charging mass, prepared to hack away.
The dwarf looked over from where he’d begun pacing in his usual manner when things were taking too long to get going. [...]

A Moment To Recuperate

“As far as we know, he was sent here by an evil mage looking for the Black Opal Eye. When I asked the Rahib of his progress in that endeavour, he said that he served new masters now. But Hasan, what do you know of the origins of this temple, anything would be useful in [...]

Dark Forces

Maruc dropped to his knees, clasped his hands together and fervently thanked Halav for guiding the dwarf to safety. Perhaps it was a test of faith? To watch a friend risk death to help his friends and be powerless to stop him?
Maruc shook his head and grinned. No. Feldard, he decided, was blessed with luck. [...]
