The Rescue of Eldon TossCobble
On the trail of Eldon


DM Steven 
Tuesday October 1st, 2013 5:19:08 PM
For a second night in a row an exhausted Odo watches the party from a stool at the bar and his soon joined by Zylo who finds a place to sit next to Odo. Like many, Zylo's tongue loosens during the party as he confesses part of his troubling past. Grateful for having been granted another chance in life he thanks Odo for being one of the people who made him actually think this time it might work... As the confessing Rogue stands to find the loo Odo is left behind quite puzzeled and uncertain what to think of all he heard.

Shel is radiant as the owner of the Belly Buster is willing to name a dish after her. She just needs to come up with something suitable for her name and suitable for the place... After some experiments she comes up with a fantastic tasting Squash. Sweet, tasty, savory... magnificent! As Shel's plate is passed through the Belly Buster from one to another many are sheerful about the new dish!
"Well then, looks like we got a new dish! Shel's Squash as of tomorrow on the menu and only available at the Belly Buster!! " the owner shouts over the noise at the Inn.

Murphy too has a fantastic evening. His Papa and Mama even shown up to celebrate along. But that's not all! Polly and Selithe also joined the party hugging Murphy for holding the family honor high! As Kendry and Airin are still on honeymoon and haven't returned in time for the games. But their absense is quickly forgotten thanks to all those who have shown! Murphy swaps stories and scribbles down a couple of verse on a piece of paper. He checks for Flimsipold to come up with a suitable tune while he works on the last section of his song. Not easily persuaded Flimsipold turns his attention to check on Murphy's song... it has potential but needs a bit more work. But Flimsipold is more than willing to come up with some sweet sleet mandolin fiddle for Murphy's lyrics! Ready when you are Maestro!!

Edric and Eral are the first to give up and leave the party. Both are tired and are already thinking about what they will purchase with their prize.

Both leave the Belly Buster together, arm in arm, still singing and laughing from the day full of exitment.

As they walk through the moonlit streets they are suddenly stopped by Cora TossCobble. She's clearly panicking! Her eyes stand wild and she's been crying...

"Have you seen Eldon?! Is he at the Belly Buster?!!! ... He hasn't come back!! Please help me find him... "

Cora pulls at your sleeves hoping to drag you along only... you seem to think that she's not thinking straight anymore right now. Panick has gotten into her...

The only thing you could actually understand is that Eldon has gone missing.

"Hold on Cora, lets head to my room so we can talk in private and to get everyone together?"

Assuming she says yes he will turn to Edric. "Grab Murphy and let everyone know that something is wrong and to meet up with us in my room. I will try and settle Cora down while you gather everyone."

Eral understanding this has to do with Eldon is concerned but knows better than to talk in the open about these sort of thing will try to lead her to his room to wait. "Stay calm, I'm sure my friends will want to help and if they don't I'll work my hardest to find him."

OOC: I never got an answer on hero points used for had HP rolls??

ADM Kim on hit points, hero points, and where to roll 
Tuesday October 1st, 2013 6:28:44 PM
Andrew - Everyone rolls hit points in the Loot 'n Booty (you can use the L&B button at the top of the page).

I think you rolled here, and rolled a natural 1. No one has to accept a natural 1 on hit points - that is the one thing you can get a 'do-over' for. No, hero points can no longer be used to augment a roll, or to go for a reroll. Say your character class uses 1d8. You roll a one. So, you get to roll again. If you roll a 2, that's it. If you roll an 8, that's it. And for anything in between, that's it. If you roll six 1's in a row, you get still another roll... until you get anything other than a 1.

So, hie thee thence to the Loot 'n Booty (I helped name that board years ago :-) ) and I hope you roll a high number!

Hazel plan on staying up all night, savoring the victory, outside of Alouryn window, when he hears about Eldon missing from the frantic Cora.

"When did you last see him? Where? Do you have some clothes from him? Faoil can track him!"

OOC: I went to the Catacombs to try and buy a masterwork weapon and armor, and a greataxe, but haven't "closed" the deal yet... waiting for that to finish my Level 2 Character Sheet.

Edric nods his head in agreement with Eral and hastily heads back to the Dancing Pig.

Entering the busy tavern, he scans the crowds until he sees Murphy among the merriment. He grabs Murphy: "We've got a problem. Cora came out of nowhere on the streets, claiming Eldon to be missing, or so I can gather from her frantic cries. Eral is with her in his room trying to get to the bottom of this. We should all head over."

Alouryn is being walked home by Hazel when the commotion begins. Alouryn comforts Cora and tries to calm her (Diplomacy of 20) before asking, "What happened Cora? Where did you last see him?" Then she quickly examines Cora for injuries. (Heal of 14)

Shel is currently at the Belly Buster, content after her new addition to the menu. She is enjoying a yummy dinner, after being feted by the crowd.

OOC: Can someone come collect her so she knows what is happening?

"Well, Flimsipold, I just put in that part about Mulberry because I figured you'd want us to recognize her. A lovely woman, but I've no claim to her. If she'll have you, she's yours, not mine. So, no blood need be shed on that account. Aight?"

After they talked, he had worked out two more verses to his work which he was about to show Flim - but Edric comes in with the news about Eldon and Cora. He caps his inkwell, wraps his quill, puts them away, folds and stuffs what he wrote into his pocket. "Give me one minute."

He finds his father discussing the crafting of a new fiddle for one of the musicians, a sketch before them. "Papa. Eldon Tosscobble was supposed to be back yesterday. Cora is frantic. We're going to go see what's up. Tell Ma - where has she gotten off to? - I don't know whether I'll be home tonight. Later." He gives his father a squeeze on the shoulder.

Samell Fingers Pastna Pipewood gives Murphy's hand a quick pat. "All right, son. Proud of what you and your friends did the last few days. We'll keep Eldon and Cora in mind." The smile lines at the corners of his eyes show, but this time with concern on his countenance. "Take care."

Murphy returns to Eldon. "Flimsipold, you wanna come, see what Cora has to say?" He also looks for Zylo, letting him know the situation.

He then goes with Eldon and whoever else wishes to accompany them to talk with Cora.

Leading Cora back to his room to wait for the rest of the group Eral meets up with Alouryn and Hazel. We all head back to the private room before we get into to much discussion. "Alouryn, After you check her for injyries we should head to a private room to stay away from prying eyes. Edric has already went back to the Belly Buster to gather the rest of the group to head to the Dancing Pig to get out of the commotion of the party."

As he leads the group back to his room he will make sure that no one is following him but failing to see his own two feet he thinks we are all clear.

Backstep for Murphy (before Edric showed up):

Murphy claps with others at the innkeep's announcement about Shel's Squash.

Murphy is happy to have his sister, Selithe Leafwin Pipewood, at the Belly Buster tonight. He introduces her to Zylo Runefaust, as he knows they both have a love of gambling in common.

"Zylo, this is Selithe, one of my older sisters. She was with my brothers Nalfein and Kendry in an adventuring group. Actually, you and Nalf have a profession in common. Anyway, she got a little casino going a while back. It's not here in town, obviously. Maybe she can talk to you about that."

He is also happy to see Polly Leafwin Turnbell. She was always full of vim and vigor, and had great ideas about innovative ways to do things. He introduces her and Selithe to everyone there. Polly was also with the earlier adventuring group, and helped retrieve Brock's Best Beer for the election of Crescent Valley's Burgomeister Calfast Rowgold Tunnely about, what, seven or eight years ago?

"If any of you ever want to read about their adventures, just let me know," he says to his friends. "I have a copy of a book my brother Kendry wrote about it. Interesting people, places, a two-headed wolf, metallic birds, the coming of Ebryon, King of the Fey, battles, songs, puzzles, wonders, danger, romance."

Eral and Edric are the first to bump into a panicking Cora... her husband has gone missing so it seems. Eral does his best to calm Cora down and tries to bring her to his room. He asks Edric to go get the rest of the group so they can talk privately to Cora.

Hazel and Alouryn make a romantic walk home as they see Eral and Edric talking wihe Cora... Then two lovebirds join their friends and immediately start asking when and where Cora last saw her husband. Cora eyeballs Hazel and Alourun wondering what to say... "He personally wanted to take care of Sarabella's supplies... he should have been back in time to watch today's games and the ceremony... something must have gone wrong... I know somethings wrong..."

Meanwhile Edric made his way back to the Belly Buster. He checks to find Murphy and breaks the news: "We've got a problem"
Quickly Murphy is brought up to date

Shel, savouring her own dish, sees there is somethig going on and joins Murphy and Edric. Odo still flabbergasted about Zylo's confession sits at the bar when Murphy comes for him. While they talk, Odo returns from the loo.
Flimsipold yawns as he wonders why Eldon coukdn't go missing after he slept...

Before not too long, the whole Humble's Sword team is huddleled together in Eral's room. Cora is seriously panicking.

"Eldon dicided to aid with the latest shipment for Sarabella... (knowledge local DC10 - to know that Sarabella is the Priestess of Flower) Something must have gone wrong for he wanted to be here to support you in the games. He was so proud of you... so it's very not like Eldon not to show on time."

Wednesday October 2nd, 2013 7:53:37 PM
Zylo's interest is piqued by learning about Selithe's casino. Should he go that direction, or some other? He chats with her at length, though, learning what he can of what she has been doing.

He has some things to think over.

When Edric shows up, he excuses himself. He had glanced over Murphy's shoulder briefly as the latter was writing.

He stands up on a table, and raises the banner he brought with him from the field of battle. "Friends! Hey, everybody, listen up! Yeah - quiet down! All right. Good. Hey, we want to thank you all for your cheers for us - and our worthy competition - over the last three days... and for free drinks for us tonight!" he adds with a big grin.

"So, anyway, Flimsipold and Murphy were working on a song. I don't know the whole thing. I don't know the music. But part of it goes like this." He chants the chorus that Murphy wrote:
By end of day, now each can say
In Crescent Valley many are good
In Humble's Ford there is no doubt
The best, by far, is Humble's Sword
"Not a very humble chorus, I know. It's like getting an award for being the most humble, right? Is that something that the one who gets it should go around bragging about? 'Hi. I am very, very humble. See? Here is my trophy for it!'

"But, just for fun, let's do it together. Though our little town is Humble's Ford, I think we are stepping up in our place in the Wold, eh? My uncle used to say, 'Before honor, comes humility.' Well, when my friends and I were being over-run with rats a few days ago, honor was not high on the list of things we were thinking about. They were dirty, and messy, and... rats! And we were there in the middle of them. Sort of humbling, you know? But we stuck together, fought together, thought together." Zylo is beginning to sweat. This is not the sort of thing he usually does. "These guys, and gals, taught me something. When you face obstacles, you work together. That's kind of humbling. It's not one person who is the hero. It's a bunch of people who do heroic things." He rubs his hands together, and wipes them on his pants. "Uh, I'm not used to making speeches." He pauses. "But, do you know what I'm tryin' to say? Yeah? Yeah?

"All right, then, ready? Together!"
By end of day, now each can say
In Crescent Valley many are good
In Humble's Ford there is no doubt
The best, by far, is Humble's Sword
He goes through it with them about three times. Then he calls over the innkeep, and pours about 40-50 gold pieces into his hands. "Next round of drinks is on Humble's Sword!"

He climbs down from the tabletop, gives his friends a chance to get away, then will try to break away in about five or six minutes to run to join the rest at the Dancing Pig.

Shel hugs Cora when she enters the room, trying to comfort her as much as possible. "You know we'll help find him, Cora. He might have just taken a wrong ten or something. What can you tell us about his trip? What details do you remember? Who was with him? He hadn't argued with anyone recently had he? Was there anywhere on the trip he usually stopped?" She looked around at the others hoping they could join in with any other questions. Shel was so frazzled, she was having trouble focusing, even more than usual.

Alouryn AC: 16/14/13 HP: 14/14 (Vaughn) 
Wednesday October 2nd, 2013 9:25:11 PM
Alouryn is genuinely concerned, but at the mention of Sarabella she feels dutiful. "Perhaps I should go talk to the High Priestess to get more details of Eldon's errand? I'm sure she won't mind me coming by the temple so late for a good cause. We're going to need all the information we can get."

After telling Murphy and the others about Cora, Edric heads back with them to Erals room. Upon seeing Cora, he gives her a pat on the back. "Don't worry Cora. As long as we're here, we'll make sure Eldon is okay. We're going to talk to Sarabella. She may know what happened."

"Ya' know, if there Sar'bella is really as wise as they say, she'll want us to sleep first. Why don't we do that instead and visit her in the morning?" Flimsipold replied to Alouryn, though only half-seriously.

OOC:
I am furious! I can't even begin to express my sheer hatred for google docs. I've leveled upon my separate sheet, which I use specifically not to have to deal with that horrible thing, for now I just updated the HP.

I will wrestle that pile of miserable formatting and long loading times either over the weekend or if I feel suicidal enough by then.

Odo shakes his head when Edric tells him about Eldon's disappearance.

"Well that's just awful. But maybe someone here has seen him around? Might be worth a try before we go running off to the Temple."

Thursday October 3rd, 2013 5:58:09 PM
Zylo's dissapointed that the song Murphy and Flimsipold were creating would never be sung at the Belly Buster... he gets on the table and brings the song to the audience. It's far from being as good as Hin Billy would do but apparently enough beer has been served at the Belly Buster for the crowd to really enjoy Zylo's performance!

To find a way for himself and his friends to get out of the inn, so they can all listen to what Cora has to say, Zylo trows a big pile of gold on the counter! When he says drinks are on the Humble's Sword the crowd goes berserk and by the time you're all outside you can hear the crowd chanting your names... HUMBLE'S SWORD!! HUMBLE'S SWORD!! Humble Swords... Hummel Swors... humm wors...

Back in Erals room Shel tries to comfort Cora and starts asking more details about her husband's transport...

"My Eldon would not take the wrong road!.. not my Eldon... not him... snif... Bingo's with ... sob my Eldon... he.. he's a goo good lad.. They to ook the ol' raider toad souh .., slobber ... I I I donnowhut.. sob what was he c cargo.. snif snif sob ... Sar sarabellala... slobber ... you have to find my Eldon... "

Cora burries her shoulder into Shel's comforting shoulder.

Alouryn is genuinly concerned about Cora but feels more concerned about Sarabella... She considers it her duty to talk to Sarabella first to jnow more about what's going on. Edric nods in agreement to the idea to talk to Sarabella first...Hazel too thinks talking to Sarabella is the best thing to do first...
Fkilsipold wonders why a wise priestess would want you all to go see her in the middle of the night... like her... you should be crashing onto your beds soon now... Odo too finds it bestto go see the priestess first.

Cora listens to what you are saying...

" You are not ging to let my Eldon out there in the wild now are you??

She actually pretty angry that you don't go looking for Eldon straight away...

So what will it be friends.. you go talking to Sarabella? go after the one who attacked? Go search for Eldon? Sleep till morning?

Shel was in favor of quickly speaking to the Priestess and then heading straight out to find Eldon. "Now Cora we need just a few minutes to find out all the information we can gather and then we are going to go get him. Eldon is more skilled at tracking than any of us. We need to know everything about his trip so we are able to get him home licketysplit!"

"I belive there will be no hearm in contacting the priestess to get her story before we go off on the search. BE assured Cora we will find Eldon but we want to make sure we are heading the right direction first. I will stay with Cora and see if I can get her to rest a little if a few of you want to go contact the priestess before we head out. I still need to stop at the store to stock up before we head out as well."

Eral wants to make sure that Cora is telling him as much as possible and the truth. He will study her words and reactions as much as possible to ensure that she is not working for some ulterior motive.

"All right, Cora," Murphy says. "Deep breath. Breathe out. Deep breath. Breathe out. Deep breath... hold it... breathe out. Now, slow down - my ears can only listen so fast. You know we love you, and Eldon, too. We will do what we can to help. I will go tonight, and likely most of us here will do so, too. But please, just a few more minutes to tell us anything you can remember.

"Any details you can remember may help. Now, Alouryn, a few others - go ahead and talk with Sarabella [local knowledge 10 - he knows who she is]. I'll stay here for a bit. Shel - do you want to stay, too, or go along with them?

"So, Eldon was with Bingo. Cora. Tell me about Bingo. Was it just the two of them? Did they have a cart? Ponies, mules, horses? Was anyone else with them you know of? Do you know what the cargo may have been?

"If we are heading out tonight, we'll need some supplies. Someone wake up Pirnook Deeppockets - unless he was at the Belly Buster with the rest of the crowd. Who will get him to open his store for us?"

"Don't worry Cora, we will find Eldon, count on it. People, let's go."

Hazel goes with the rest to the Temple of the Flower, to talk to Sarabella, while he tries to remember where the "Toad Rider" road is... and hoping Faoil nose can help them to find Eldon.

At the Temple he will stand back and let Alouryn do the talking.

Waiting until all members of the Humble's Ford team have regrouped, Zylo tells them. "Thank you for letting me on the team. Had a great time. But I have some things I need to do. Good luck with finding Eldon - I bet you'll get him back safe and sound to Cora. I am sorry I cannot join you in the effort. Maybe down the road we can do something together again, but my path is heading a different direction for now."

He shakes each person's hand, giving each one a silver piece. "Those are lucky silver pieces. Hang on to 'em - maybe they'll help you out!"

Zylo Runefaust turns to leave, and leaves.

Murphy attempts to calm Cora... few have actually understood what she was talking about. Hazel tries to remember where the "Toad Rider" road is?!? Was that what she said??

Young adventurers as they are the Humble's Sword decide to split up the party... now that always leads to a good outcome here in the Wold...

Alouryn and Hazel make a run for the Temple of Flower to speak with Sarabella LoveSong. Edric accompanies them on his way for the General Store. In a quick pace they pass along the Belly Buster again where they still here a lot of singing and merrymaking... it's inviting just to forget about Eldon and go inside again... but a job's a job and they did promise Cora to help find her husband. So they continue along the road. As they make haste they pass someone on the road walking his pet dog. The man eyeballs Hazel, Edric and Alouryn wondering what they are doing out on the streets at this hour in such a hurry. Soon they pass the General Store and Humble's Burrow. Pleasant smoke comes from the chimney's on the mayor's home. Alouryn and Hazel think they even see a glimpse of the mayor himself poking up the fire. The General Store is closed... after all it IS the middle of the night!! Edric nods to Hazel and Alouryn and walks up to the front door of the Store. Neither can remember seeing Pirnook at the party so perhaps he's just at home in his bed...

After a 5 minutes walk Alouryn and Hazel stand in front of the double door of the Temple of Flower. Alouryn can sense the serenity of her Godess here in the temple. The doors are shut...

Shel, Eral and Murphy stay with Cora and try to calm her down. Cora smiles thankfuly to Shel as she's offered something nice and warm to drink. Slowly she regains her calm and begins to tell what she knows...

"Bingo. Bingo Greenbottle is a true Buster. Eldon likes to hire him for his errands. Bingo's never been fond of the Pits and neither has my husband. In fact he was hoping you would step into his footsteps and be Busters too! He was even planning to give you our holiday home because he's so fond of you guys. Bingo's a young lad but a good caravaneer. He's done several runs for my Eldon already ... he lives close to Mme. La'Rues Herbarium. His lovely wife expects a baby shortly. This was supposed to be Bingo's last run before he would become a father... the poor lad. Let's hope nothing happened...
Eldon told me Sarabella needed supplies and some special salves to help protect the Valley from the Giant and Goblinkind. I don't know more... Why would I? I never ask Eldon what's on his cargo's. He just tells me something now and then. "

Odo's wondering if they should not talk to the townsfolk. Perhaps some one has seen Eldon or has heard what happened?

Flimsipold is too exhausted to come up with some good ideas. While Cora is panicking and the others begin running of he's doing his best to keep his eyes open. Every now and then you see his head almost drop on his chest and his eyes turning to the back of his head.

Zylo however decides to leave the party...

" I think going to the Belly Buster is going to rouse a little too much suspicion on the group. I need to get resupplied but I will not leave if the store is not open. Cora, we should probably check in with Bingo's wife as well. " If Edric comes back and was able to get gear I will leave and run and pick up my needs after they return.

OOC: I need to grab a new weapon and armor but I if my character cannot make it to the store does that stop me? I know a few of the other characters just ended up having the items.

"Now Cora, between Eldon and Bingo, I am sure they will be fine. Those two are very good at what they do. You know how resourceful Eldon is...if he had trouble, he will have left us a trail leading right to him, I guarantee. And we're going to go looking for the two of them right here in a bit. Just wait and see, everything will end up fine as can be."

She turns to Odo. "Odo, could you run check with Bingo's wife? Perhaps she has heard something. If not, maybe she could come and sit with Cora while we head out. I don't want the two of them being alone."

He has a think as to where Bingo's house might be (Knowledge: Local: 9), but if he doesn't know he'll just head to the Herbarium and have a look around, possibly asking a local if anyone's about.

Alouryn and Hazel stand before the Temple of Flower hoping they will be able to wake Sarabella LoveSong. It takes a while but when light appears Hazel refrains from breaking the door by force... After what appears to be ages the elderly woman opens the door slightly and peeks through the opening.  "Who goes there at this nightly hour..."
When Sarabella sees Alouryn the priestess opens the doors a bit more. "How may I help you child... you look distressed... Come... come in and share your burden. Tell me what is troubeling you and the Godess Flower will bring guidance...  "
Sarabella opens the door to let Alouryn and Hazel in.

Back at Shel's place, Shel herself, Eral and Murphy continue to talk to Cora. She smiles at the slender sorcerer Shel when she promises to go look for Eldon in a bit. Of course supplies are needed and Eral voices this wise concern. Once Edric is able to wake Pirnook everyone will be able to restock or get new weaponry and gear immediately. 
Shel also asks Odo to check on Bingo's wife. The roly-poly man complies and hurries into the direction of the Herbarium. Cora told him just before he left where to find Bingo's house so he promtly shows up at Bingo's house. His wife, being pregnant, wasn't at the party earlier and is also sleeping. It's up to Odo to waken a pregnant lady in the middle of the night only to inform her that her husband is missing... carefull lad... you don't want to startle her too much...

Flimsipold and Eral take notes of what supplies everyone needs and also hurry to the General Store. By now, Edric should have been able to get Pirnook out of his bed... Edric does his best to wake Pirnook. He's lucky for after a moment Pirnook opens a small shutter...
"What do you want lad? You're waking up half the town with this racket! What... supplies you say... weel now... depends how much you want these 'supplies'... hehehe. After all, prices after hours tend to go up."
From be shutter Pirnook notices Hazel and Alouryn as they rund for the temple of Flower. (DM Steven : you're free to go to the catacombs and immediately pit the items on you char sheet.)

It won't be that long before the Humble's Sword have roused half the town from their bed!! The other half is still at the party...

We need your help so we can try to find him. Do you know where he was going and how he was getting there?"

Murphy decides to go along with Odo. "The Greenbottles are my neighbors. Let's take a listen at the door before we go knocking or something. In case we can tell whether she is up already or not." Once they get there, he puts his left ear to the door to listen (Perception 13), but there would likely need to be a reasonable amount of noise for him to perceive anything in particular. He also looks to see if there are any lights lit within or other signs as to Mrs. Greenbottle's level of activity (Perception 20).

If it seems she is not already awake, he whispers, "Should we just leave her be for now... maybe slide a note under the door for when she wakes up - ask her to talk with Cora?" If that seems good to Odo, he jots down quickly:
Mrs. Greenbottle,

Please get in touch with Cora TossCobble at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely, Your Neighbor,

Murphy Leafwin Pipewood
Stepping away from her house, he asks Odo quietly, "What do you think about seeing what Genokal MoonWhisper and the Hairfeet clan might be up to this evening?" He tries to recall if he saw Genokal or any of the Hairfeet members at the celebrations after the contest.

If there is no direct interaction with Mrs. Greenbottle (what is her first name? Knowledge Local 15), and if Odo agrees, they'll head over to the Hairfeet caravan area.

Shel sits quietly with Cora, holding her hand. "The others will be back directly, sweetie. We'll just hold down the fort for a few moments and then we will be off. You and Ms. greenbottle need to look after each other until we make it back. She'll need you to be strong as she's in a motherly way, you know."

"Yeah. Yeah. That's probably a better idea than what I was thinking." Odo nods in agreement at Murphy's suggestion to listen at the door before knocking (and to leave a note if it comes to that). He has a quick look around himself (Perception: 10), but if neither of them spot any sign of Bingo's wife being awake he'll join Murphy in visiting the caravaneers.

Dispite the fact that earlier Hazel had decided to let Alouryn do the talking, the Ranger notices it is difficult not to spill his concerns to the Priestess... Alourun too fires multiple questions at Sarabella...
"Did you see him? What way was he going? Do you know anything that can help us locating him? Do you know where he was going and how he was getting there?"

Sarabella back a little as the young Halflings start a true bombardment of one question after the other...

"Children, children calm down... don't overload an old lady with soo many questions... now take a deep breath and calm down... one after the other. You, my love, speak..." Sarabella softly says to Alouryn. Dispite her old age she still has enough charisma to quiet you down. Slowly Alouryn explains the situation and informs the Priestess Eldon did not return from his errand... an errand he apparently did for Sarabella herself...

Sarabella gasps as she hears Eldon has gone missing...

"Troubled times lay ahead of us young Halflings... the Giant and Goblinkind are growing ever stronger and I fear the Valley will soon face great danger. I asked Eldon to bring me ingredients so I would be able to protect the Valley... there was even a substance that would protect our militia from the rash the Goblin Dogs can cause... you know Goblins aren't affected from this rash but if we were to touch those Goblin Dogs it would irritate our skinn. This would seriously hamper our militia should we face Goblins...

Someone must have found out about the cargo Eldon was bringing...

Who can I trust... someone must go out to find Eldon quickly... who can I trust... you? [b]" Sarabella says looking at Alouryn, [b]"You came here for help... you seek answers to help the lovely Cora and her Eldon...

The Goddess has brought you before me. Please child of Flower, make haste and go find Eldon... find out what has happened to him but talk to no one and don't trust anyone... I fear there's more behind all this but Giants 'n Goblins... Hurry. Rouse your friends, find Eldon and hurry back here...

Now go with the Love of Flower my child and make haste..."


Odo and Murphy hurry to Bingo's home and see the lights are on in his house... in front of the window a lovely looking halfling lass stands looking down the street. As she sees Odo and Murphy she smiles at first but then looks at them in fear... only seconds later the door swings open...

"Is it Bingo? Has something happened to him? He should have been back by now! Murphy? Is that you? Where's Bingo? Tell me!"

Seems like Odo and Murphy may need to deal with the lovely Lilly first.


Eral, flimsipold and Edric make sure everyone has the supplies they need.

Shell remains with Cora trying to keep her calm. As Shel asks her to take care of Bingo's wife cora says : "Poor Lilly... she must be panicking also as Eldon and Bingo should have been back by now... perhaps it would be best to bring Lilly here while you and your friends go out looking for our loved ones. Lilly needs her Bingo back... a child should not grow up without a father...

I fear you should hurry dear... "

"Hello, Lilly. I know it's late, but, can you put on a pot of tea? Let's sit down, and Odo and I will tell you what we know. Please, I think Odo and I may be up late, and the tea will help. Oh, Lilly Greenbottle, you know Odo Barfoot, right? He's pretty good with numbers, and just came back to the Ford recently."

He figures that getting Lilly busy in making tea - a common everyday ritual among many halflings - will be a task to give her focus and perhaps help her calm her nerves.

In any event - whether she agrees to make tea or not, Odo and Murphy will tell her what we know - which is not very much.

Yet before he will tell her what he knows, he asks her what she knows about the journey of Bingo and Eldon, and what their plans had been - if they mentioned anything about their route. Then he tells her, "Lilly, we just came from Cora TossCobble's home. She says that Eldon and Bingo have not returned from their journey - as you know. Cora told us it is not like Eldon to be late to return like this. She asked us if we would look for them." He looks at the very pregnant woman. "Would you like us to go look for them?" He is prepared to comfort her as best he can, with whatever help Odo can also offer.

"You know, Lilly, it might be good for you to be with Cora. Can we help you get a few of your things over to her place? We are getting a few things together to help us in looking for them, so will need to leave soon."

If she agrees, he will ask Odo to help her for a few minutes while he steps over to his home not too many steps away. At his home, he gets one of his siblings to get the pony saddled with the saddle pack, bags, bit & bridle, etc., and brings out a few sacks from his room. "Put these things in the bags on the pony. I'll be back soon."

He then heads back to the Greenbottle's place, and assists as he can.

(OOC Catalin, please let me know if I need to help you or clarify a few things. I don't want you to feel at loss of what to post... contact me by email of you want please if I can help)

Murphy and Odo are welcomed into Bingo and Lilly's home. She looks puzzeled for she can't understand why Murphy and this friend of his (Odo) are standing in front of her door asking for tea in the middle of the night... she was expecting Bingo hours ago and not these two...

Gently the two break the news to Lilly about her missing husband. Tears soon roll down the lovely halfling lass's cheeks...

"I don't know what exactly the transport was carrying... Eldon has asked Bingo on so many occasions to deliver goods all over the valley. But I don't know why Eldon joined him on this errand.

She agrees to join Murphy and Odo to go back to Cora also is at the moment. While Odo tends for Lilly, Murphy quickly makes it to his home searching for one of his siblings to help with the pony... now... wasn't his family also at the party?! None are either home nor awake so Murphy has to take care of it on his own. Perhaps a little note is all he can leave right now... Now we don't want his family too to get all panicky about a missing family member do we?! On the other hand, the Leafwin Pipewoods have a history filled with the adventerous family type.

Together Murphy, Odo and now also Lilly go back.

Edric and Eral are also ready to go back to rendez-vous with their friends. They thank Pirnook for having opened his store and take all new supplies with them. Among their load are a new warhammer and a nicely crafted Shortbow...

"Looks like you lads are up to something he... argh it's none of my business... stay outa trouble that's what me says." and then Pirnook quickly double locks his door again. Only seconds later the torches are extinguished in his house and all returns to what is normal at this ungodly hour.

To Hazel Sarabella answers that the ingredients were mainly to be used for making all sorts of potions. Something Sarabella fears will be needed a lot soon...

Hazel and Alouryn ask one last question before leaving... "Which way did they go?"

"Now that would be the Old Traders Road South of Angel Springs... "

oh... now that's what Cora meant when she said 'the ol' raider toad souh'...

Shel is great in keeping Cora calm and gives the old lady something else to think about. Someone needs to take care of Lilly and her coming bundle of joy while the Humble's Sword are out looking for their respective husbands...


Roughly an hour has gone by since Cora came running all panicking for her husband...
You now have new supplies, another lass in panick, some more guidance from the old Priestess Sarabella and... a promiss made to Cora anf Lilly to find their husbands...
Not bad for one night!

Now lads 'n lasses... where do you go?!

Ach! No one is home. So Murphy takes a bit longer than he had anticipated. At least he'll know his pony is properly packed. He grabs a couple of blankets - one to serve as a saddle blanket, saddles the pony, and distributes a number of items among the pack saddle and saddlebags. "Ehya, Pippa. Got a surprise trip for you." He puts a bit of grain in the fodder bag and lets her enjoy a night time snack. He also sets a bucket of water in front of her as he shoves items here and there and ties things down. He cuts some canvas to size to be able to cover the lot, and keep rain off should that befall on their trip. "Yeah, it's not a light load, girl, but it's not gonna break your back, either." Lastly bit and bridle are placed. He leaves her there for a few minutes, and pops into his father's workshop, grabbing a handsaw and a pair of handaxes, adding those to the load.

From the kitchen he puts about a dozen apples and more carrots than that in the same sack, tucks that in under the canvas, tying it down, steps back, putting his hands on his hips. "Pippa. We're goin' on an adventure."

He takes the lead rope, and guides her out of the stables, where a couple of other ponies his father uses for trips to the Culverwood also reside, closes the door, and heads back to the Greenbottles. "Ready, Lilly, Odo? Let's go to the TossCobble's."

They wend their way that short walk, he ties Pippa to a tree, and with Odo escorts Lilly in to meet with Cora.

"Shall we head to Angel Springs, then? Should be there by morning if we leave now, don't you think?" Murphy asks once everyone is back and stories are traded. "From there we can take the old trail. I mean, nobody is particularly tired, right?"

Alouryn likes the idea of leaving immediately. She would have suggested the same. In fact she stopped at her house on the way back with Hazel to get her backpack. Considering everyone was in a war game earlier it shouldn't take long to be prepared for the road. Alouryn has never been outside Humble's Ford, but has longed to leave in search of new people to help since her first days at the Centre for Enlightenment. She is feeling nervous and anxious regarding Eldon but finds comfort knowing a certain ranger is going with her.

"Murphy and Hazel, you are both familiar with travelling in search of things. Do you know any special precautions we should make before leaving? Are either of you familiar with the road we are looking for? Or, anyone else for that matter?"

Murphy Bumblebee Leafwin Pipewood (Kim McCoy) 
Wednesday October 9th, 2013 8:31:34 PM
"Well, Alouryn, it might be nice to have a cart, but I think we can travel as we are. I have a couple of tents if we need 'em, a few other things. Best everyone bring a bed roll.

"I've been many times to Angel Springs. Our family has a toy and music shop there. As for the old Traders' Trail - I have only ever been about a mile or so south on that, myself. There are fields of grain, a few stands of trees. Some elves have a place just outside the walls of Angel Springs, and no doubt a few of them know the trail. I know we have a map at home of some spots to the south, but I couldn't find it, and everyone is out still celebrating. Selithe - my sister - told me about going that direction once, and fighting a big white bear. She was at the inn tonight. Should we go ask her?"

[At the decided risk of overposting:]

"I could ask my father if we could borrow his cart and ponies. He uses them about once every fortnight or two for trips to the Culverwood, and to Angel Springs. But I can ask."

He looks at Flimsipold. "You look tired, man. If we had a cart, you could lie down in the back and sleep along the way. Truth is, a few of you could do that. And if something happened to their cart, then ours could carry their supplies.

"Maybe we could pay him the price of the cart and ponies - maybe 50, 60 gold - though, for rescuing Eldon and Bingo, he might just let us borrow 'em."

He does some quick calculation. "Figuring the time it would take to talk to him, then harness them, that will set us back about a half hour to an hour. Might be worth the extra time in the long run.

"You all tell me whether I should get the cart or not. Otherwise, is there anything else we need to do before we go? Oh, and there's a livery in Angel Springs - you can buy carts, wagons, mules, ponies in the city."

If at least two people ask him to get the cart, he will leave Pippa there at the TossCobble's, and ask if anyone wants to come along to help get the ponies harnessed if he gets permission from Papa Samell, and let everyone know he'll meet them back here once they are ready.

"Anyone have lanterns, oil?" he asks. "Or some other decent light sources?"

"If we are going to take a few minutes, I can return home and grab my backpack, and a blanket. I don't carry much when I don't have to, so I'm woefully unprepared, to be honest. Unless you guys have an extra pillow and blanket, and can let me mooch some grub from you for the night."

Hazel might be right about being quicker being better, but the cargo sounded pretty important, so if their cart broke down it'll be good to have a backup. Anyway, I got a lamp, some oil and a few... uh... 'emergency' rations in my backpack at home, so I'll run and get that if we have time."

The group reassembles with Cora and Lilly. the prospect of going for a long walk doesn't really appeal to some. Perhaps a cart can help! Like Murohy says, a cart could allow some of you to rest along the way and if solething happened to Eldon's cart it could be used for the return trip...
Alouryn doesn't favour the cart but Odo likes it all the better.

(not much to go on atm... I'm letting you all decide on how to proceed and to reach a consensus... On foot, by cart, towards h Old teaider road, or elsewhere...
everyone can take time to prepare and fetch your gear.

"All right - Hazel, I understand the urgency, but it looks like several of us need to pick up their gear at home. I can be quick when I need to be. Hazel - you can say yes or no - but if you were to run over to my place and start harnessing the ponies, I can meet you there after I see my folks at the Belly Buster. My family knows you, so just tell them what we're about if they ask what in the Wold you are up to. Anybody else can go grab what they need from home or where they are staying. Let's push it, all right? Everyone back here in 20 minutes."

He wants to be certain his friends think this is a decent plan. If they don't - he will listen to their counsel. If they do, he runs off to speak with his father (he pulls him aside to a private spot so others cannot overhear), then runs to his home to harness the ponies to the cart, and toss in a bunch of hay and some feed, thence to return to the TossCobble's place for departure. If he brings the cart, he will tie Pippa's lead rope to the back of it. The pony on the left is Nutmeg, and on his right is the mare, Sugar. "Sleepyheads can hop in the back, and bed down on the hay. I'll drive the cart. There's a seat next to me."

Shel heads to the old home place, gathering all her gear. She makes a point to drop off the 10 sided gold nugget and the two purple roses. She turns to leave, looks over her shoulder, and steps back to grab one of the roses and put it back in her hair. I can still look pretty and save Eldon, she thinks as she heads back to meet the gathering group.

Eral agrees to help get a cart or two to help speed the passage along. "I'm not much for handling ponies but I am willing to help pay for a cart and ride in the back. I like the idea of borrowing or renting if we can." Eral will toss 5-10g in for the cart and the ponies.

He starts packing his gear and will take as much rest as possible until we get going. Whenever we get on the way he will rest as much as possible in the carts as well since it has been a long day and will probably be a long day. "Hopefully we can rotate drivers of the carts to help let everyone get as much rest as possible throughout the night."

OOC: Sorry for missing I am on a business trip and yesterday was a long day.

"I've never ridden a pony before Hazel, but if it will get us there quicker I'm willing to learn" Alouryn shows no sign of objecting to holding hands with Hazel.

Friday October 11th, 2013 11:57:08 AM
Shel sprints back to the others, huffing and puffing when she arrives. "I'm ready to go, when you all are. I can ride in the wagon, but I'm going to be too hyper to fall asleep, at least for a while. Or, I can sit up front with you, and keep you awake, Murphy. I know riding along in the dark is going to get tough."

"Thanks, Hazel, for getting the ponies hitched."

"Cora, Lilly - Hazel needs something your husbands have worn. A shirt, or shoes, or the like, that have not been washed since they wore them. His dog, Faoil, can track by scent. I have some bags we can put them in until we get close enough for Faoil and Hazel to take over."

Murphy asks his fellow party members, "Does anyone have a lantern and oil, or some other means to light our way? We don't want to drive in the dark."

Finally, once all members of the group have re-gathered at the TossCobble's home, he says to the two women, "Please pray for us - I know you'll be praying for your husbands." He gives them a hug, lets others take their leave or conclude any needed business or conversation, then says, "Time to move."

He checks Pippa's lead rope, makes sure it is secured to the back of the cart. Then he walks around, checking the wheels and axel pins. Finally he climbs up into the driver's seat. "Sure, Shel, that would be great to have you riding up front, make sure I don't nod off. You can learn how to drive, too. Though the ponies know the way, once we've set out on the road, if we don't stay on top of 'em, sure and they'll stop to graze, or sleep."

"All aboard who're coming aboard." He waits a few moments until people who want to ride have climbed into the cart.

"Up now, Sugar. Up now, Nutmeg." The towhead druid makes a double clicking sound by pulling the tongue from the inside of the cheek, and gives the reins an upward wave. He guides the cart to the south across the bridge, then takes the eastbound road toward Angel Springs, on the way to the Old Traders Road.

Once they are out of earshot of Humble's Ford, Murphy suggests, "If anyone has missile weapons - slings, bow and arrows, or the like - make sure they are kept at the ready. With the report of wolves out a couple of days ago, you can't be too careful."

[Handle animal: 12 - good enough for now]

Fine by me...
Hazel feels like walking on the air while going to Murphy's house while grabbing Alouryn's hand.
When is time to go he ask Alouryn to ride next to Murphy, while asking his friend, with his eyes, to take care of her.
He takes the lead, riding Faoil, ready to track the missing halflings.

Murphy nods to Hazel. "Sure, Alouryn, if you want, you can sit on my left, with Shel on my right. If you see me nodding off, just poke me in the ribs." He doesn't say so, but feels pretty lucky to have such pulchritudinous companions bookending him as he drives the cart.

Sunday October 13th, 2013 12:30:15 PM
As the group discusses the road ahead and how to explore the Old Traider Road Hazel and Murphy talk back and forth about using a cart or not. Hazel would much rather just get going but Murphy stresses the fact that he can assemble a couple of ponies and a cart while everyone prepares.

Hazel gives in if Murphy promisses to hurry... they have lost enough time already! And... who knows... perhaps every second counts. He does want something from Eldon and perhaps also from Bingo so Faoil can pick up their scent.

Hazel takes Alouryn by the hand and with Murphy they go to his home to get the ponies. Alouryn sure doesn't object to holing hands with Hazel and is more than willing to learn how to handle a pony... albeit perhaps more to be close to Hazel rather than the ponies.

Shel, Edri and Eral all seem to agree with the Cart. Shel would be most happy to rest on the cart for without sleep... she will be a mess. She gathers her gear and puts a nice rose in her hair. Even while on a rescue mission Shel considers she can look good... who knows... perhaps a Goblin will fancy her good looks :-)
Edric considers it even wise to take a cart for if they need to bring back supplies or who knows... casualties... a cart would be most useful. Eral too prepares for the journey and suggest to rotate drivers so each can catch enough sleep.

......

A little while later Murphy, Alouryn and Hazel turn up with a cart that is pulled by Suger and Nutmeg. Murphy also found a small lantern he could attach to the wagon. It comes with 2 refills. Pippa is tied to the back of the cart, her line well secured.

Goodbye's are given to Cora and Lilly with the promiss that the Humble's Sword will return with their loved ones.

Murphy hopes in the driver's seat and is quickly accompanied by Shel who is way too hyper to fall a sleep anyhow.
Then the sign is given : "ALL ABOARD"

Edric, Eral, Odo, Flimsipold all hop on the cart quickly finding a spot to sleep.

Hazel asks Murphy to take Alouryn besides him on the driver's seat. Murphy smiles... of course who wouldn't! Two lovely lades sitting next to him?! Of course one is spoken for... keep your eyes on the road Murphy!!

Faoil has sniffed some garments from Bingo and Eldon so Hazel takes the lead and rides with Faoil ahead of the cart.

....

All through the remainder of the night the wagon, pulled by Nutmeg and Suger, travels eastbound toward Angel Springs. There the Old Traider Road will take the travellers south.

Night slowly passes... some are snorring in the back. Others keep an eye out on the road. Hazel rides ahead of the cart while Alouryn is proudly watching her hero...

In the East the sun slowly rises what rewards our friends with a magnificent view on their beloved valley. The road follows along the Crescent River for some time. All shades of lively greens, flowers awaking, bees buzzing and the morning birds starting their morning song. Several hours after their departure from Humble's Ford Hazel and Faoil can spot the towers of Angel Springs. Chimney's smoking in the morning air are proof of a city that rises.

Then the cart comes to the crossing point. The road that leads to Angel Spring goes North. The Old Traders Road beackons the group to go South. Somewhere along that road something might have happened to Eldon and Bingo...

(from here on - depending where you go - try to make the appropriate checks friends... who knows what might be lurking along the Old Road...)

Odo will run home to get his backpack and drops off a fair amount of his winnings while some of the others see about the cart. Upon meeting up with them again at the Tosscobbles' he'll give Murphy his lamp and a flask of oil if he needs it before hopping up on the back of the wagon, having a quick snack from his rations and grabbing a few winks on the journey.

When he wakes again in the morning he'll have another snack, probably finishing off one of his trail rations, and offers food to anyone who doesn't have their own.

Other than that Odo keeps pretty quiet, and when he's done snacking he'll get Pebbledasher at the ready as Murphy recommended. He keeps his eyes peeled as well as he can for any sign of trouble as they head down the road (Perception = 22), but also has a think, trying to recall if he's heard of any dangers in these parts before (Knowledge: Local = 12).

"Y'know, I've been up all night. And the ponies need a rest." Murphy had stopped a few times during the night to let them take some breaks. "How about we take a short break, let the ponies roll in the grass, eat some food, then re-hitch and follow the trail. Now, who wants to take a turn driving?" Unless Hazel and Faoil say otherwise, he suggests we head south. He brought enough trail rations to feed everyone for a few days, to add to what Odo offers.

[Perception 20 on general principle]

Sunday October 13th, 2013 9:29:44 PM
Shel yawns and stretches. She didn't know anything about how best to find clue and track, so she kept quiet while the others figured out the route to follow. She had spent he night trying to keep Murphy and Alouryn entertained and awake. She had asked about their families, favorite foods, and anything else that came to her head.

As the group considered breaking, however, she knew she needed some rest as well. She could only cast her little jinxes when she had some sleep. As her stomach rumbled a bit, she added, "I'm ready for some breakfast, too. Whoever drives the cart needs someone to keep them company. And I fancy a nap myself, if some of you in the back can scooch over a bit!"

Alouryn enjoys the company of Murphy and Shel during the ride. She mostly watches Hazel and Faoil leading the way though. When they stop she is tired but sees no point in resting yet. She is far more intrigued with the art of tracking and studies Hazel and Faoil intently.

"This looks like a good place to rest and hopefully if we send a few people each way we might see a trail. Anyone have a guess of where they would be?"

"Thanks, Eral - you can drive for a spell while I catch some winks. I'll watch for the first ten minutes," Murphy says. "I'll show you a few maneuvers, let you get a feel for the reins, then I'm out for a while."

If Hazel and Faiol can tell for sure which way the men went, we'll go that way. If they cannot tell at all, the group (after breakfast) travels down the Old Traders' Trail.

Monday October 14th, 2013 6:39:19 PM
During the trip Alouryn finds it very hard to sleep. She enjoys Murphy and Shel's company a lot but most of all her eyes are fixed on Faoil... or would it be Hazel... Shel enjoyes he small talk during the trip. Murphy holds the reighns well in hand and makes good progress. Suger and Nutmeg have no problems pulling a wagon filled wih only halfligs. Pippa trots slowly behind occasionally blowing her nose in the morning air.

At the crossroads the group comes to a halt... did Eldon pass this way and perhaps went to the city of Angel Springs or hasn't he made it this far... Hazel and Faoil try their best to detect possible cart trails coming up from the Old Traiders Road in the past few hours. After all, Eldon was supposed to have come home not long ago. In the bacj if the cart Flimsipold is loudly snorring...

Murphy makes sure the ponies can rest for a while. In the meantime he and Odo prepare some rations for the group. Eral and Shell are happy to dig in and add some of their own rations as well.
While Hazel and Faoil check the possibility that Eldon hasn't passes this place by, Eral tries to find clues he has...

A little while later, both are pretty certain Eldon and Bingo didn't make it this far... Once the ponies have rested and everyone ate their full the caravan is ready to start moving again. This time Eral is keen to climb onto the driver's seat while the others catch some sleep.So far all but Murphy, Shel, Alouryn and Hazel slept for at least several hours. Murphy and Shel want to catch some sleep. Alouryn feels tired but is not up for a nap yet. Her Hazel isn't planning to sleep either apparently.

Once Muprhy is sure Eral can handle the cart 'n ponies he finds a spot next to Shel in the back of the wagon and soon the both of them are also sleeping quietly. Slowly the cart follows the Old Traiders Road South...

Slowly hours go by untill suddenly Faoil comes to a halt... Hazel, immediately on alert stands next to Faoil and tries to see whatever it is caught Faoil's attention...There in the distance, Hazel thinks he sees some remains of a wagon...

OOC: Perception roll of 11 if needed to see if Shel hears Hazel. I'm assuming she does, but if not, ignore this post.

"What are you yelling about Hazel," Shel growled in a snit. Clearly she wasn't a morning person, even though it wasn't the morning anymore. She elbowed Murphy, making sure he was miserable as she was. After shaking her head for a few seconds, she remembered what the group was hoping to achieve, and she crawled to her feet.

"What do you see, Hazel?"

Here he was slumbering soundly when somebody or other yells, and then he feels a sharp elbow in his ribs.

"Wha- what... hey! Let me sleep." Murphy shifts to his side, ear resting upon his shoulder, and his hand covers his other ear. He attempts to resume dreaming about fishing with a pole on the ol' river.

Alouryn is accustomed to late nights of dancing, but not this late. She feels fatigued but the needs of others always outweigh the needs of herself. She continues to ride beside the driver, this time Eral. Her head is nodding when Hazel's shout snaps her back to attention.
"Hazel, is there anyone with it?"
She strains to see from the cart, but waits for Hazel to respond before reacting further. She grasps her holy symbol and begins reaching with her divine connection to Flower praying things are alright, but preparing to start healing if they are not.

Lights already starts to fade when Hazel spots the wagon, or what's left of it, he and Faoil run of to it...
There in a curve of the road a wagon can be seen laying on his side... the pony or donkey that pulled is no longer there... Faoil and Hazel are the first to get to the wagon. The first thing they see is a heavily wounded man on the ground his back against the wagon. The guy's clothes are covered in blood... in his shoulder an arrow has burried itself deep... that must have ben very close to the heart...

From their own cart the rest calls out for Hazel for more info... Shel and Murphy are brutally awoken by Hazel's shouts. Alouryn feels exhausted but with Eral she manages to steer the wagon slowly towards the broken cart.

Hazel sees a lot more arrows... a broken hand axe even... supplies all around on the ground. No immediate answer to what hapened here.

"Well... lad... Will you pleasers help a true Buster???

Shel stands up in the back of the cart, trying to get abetter look at the scene laid out in front of them. Once they get close enough, she hops out of the back, and makes her way to Hazel and the injured man. She waited for the others who had made contact with him to start the questioning. She was ready to jump in if needed, but didn't want to make him so nervous that they might not get the appropriate info.

The dream now banished from his mind, Murphy's head pops up to see what Hazel is going on about. When he sees the wagon and scattered debris, he jumps off the cart and hurries over to where the others are gathering. That has got to be Eldon, "What happened to you, Eldon? Cora is worried sick over you, and Lilly is wanting to see Bingo." He does not get in the way of Alouryn or Eral, as the old man may still need more help.

He takes a cursory glance around at the aftermath of the attack (Perception 16), the arrows, the handaxe, the general mess. "Who did this to you? How long have you been here?"

Eral beats Alouryn, jumps down the cart and races towards the one on the groung hoping Domi will help him to stop the poor man from dying... Too tired to realise what is happening Alouryn sees Eral taking care of the guy's wounds. Hazel steps aside to let Eral using Domi's healing powers over the injured one.

Shel too gets up from the wagon to see what is going on but she allows the healers to take of his injuries before the questionning starts...

Murphy banishes his dreams from his mind. Fixated on the fact that they hope to find Eldon, Murphy hurries over to where the others are gathering and starts talking to the one he hopes is Eldon... Only to see that it's not Eldon who lays on the ground...

Murphy recorgnises Bingo Greenbottle!! His face is very pale in the evening light what is only intensified by the blood drenched overcoat he's wearing... the arrow sticking out of his shoulder penetraded deep into the flesh barely missing his heart so it seems.
Seeing his mistake he questions the whereabouts of Eldon and takes a cursory glance around the wagon...

Murphy make a knowledge Nature check to identify the arrows being Goblin made... A quick glance informs Murphy of the presence of a few torches, a blanket and a jar of orange cream... (make an Alchemy DC5 or Knowledge Nature 10 to identify hte cream) Sadly though Murphy also notices another halfling laying face down in the ground... his legs bent in an unnatural angle (clearly broken) and in his side a large cut. A cut deep enough to make all help come too late.

Everybody make perception check

Bingo's too badly hurt to start talking. But thanks to Eral's quick healing the poor lad is out of danger... for now... The arrow is still sticking out of his shoulder.


Faoil reacts nervous to the spot and sniffs at the right side of the road...

"Bingo! It's you! Your faithful wife awaits you - and the child in her womb will need you to come home." Murphy gets down on a knee in front of his neighbor. "Also - you know I've always been a Buster - but for the games I'll make an exception - so, go ahead," he says with a wry smile on his face, "call me a pleaser." He turns his head. "Friends, our friend Bingo needs a bit more healing, and the arrow removed. What can we do for him?" He looks to Eral and Alouryn.

He stands up. "Everyone who is not attending to the injured or fallen - see if there are any others about." He holds up a wooden arrow shaft and indicates the fletching. "These are in the goblin style."

He excuses himself, and looks about. He sniffs the jar of orange cream, examines its texture. "I've seen this before. This is _(DM fill in the blank)_." [Knowledge, nature: 15]

He then goes to look at the badly mangled body. He leans down. "Hello. Can you hear me?" He waits a moment to see if there is any response - which he does not really anticipate. If there is no answer, no sound, he will gently turn the halfling over to see whom he fears it may be.

"I'm hungry." He stands up in the cart, and through initially blurry eyes (Perception 7 - natural 1) begins to take in the surrounding scenery. He spots his hat and puts it on, and puts a piece of straw between his teeth.

In no time the group is surrounding the ambushed wagon looking for clues and survivors but simultaniously destroying many of the tracks... Shel and Odo hope to hear some good news about Bingo's chances.Shek does take note of Faoil's odd behavious but already Hazel's on top of that.

Murphy feels somewhat offended to be named a Pleaser but he figures Bingo's in too much pain to realise what he's saying. He hopes Alouryn and Eral will further patch up Bingo while he looks at the other vistem. Murphy hasn't seen this one before but it is clear that all help comes to late for the poor lad.

The jars Murphy looks at the jar that contains an orange salve. He seels to have seen this before and he realises this salve will protect against Skinn Afflictions

Edric takes care of bingo and with a little nudge to getting up from the cart, so will Alouryn. Hazel and Flimsimold are combining forcesand scan the surroundings. As Hazel is keeping his eyes open he notices 2 vials tucked away in the wagon. After some time, Alouryn and Hazel are quite certain this raid was done by Goblins. From the tracks they can tell there muct have been between 6 and 8 people with this raid. Rhe goblins left the road going souh from here... they went into the direction of the forest. The tracks lead towards the area where Faoil searched earlier.
Clearly the group dislines Goblins,,,

Assuming the vials were pointed out to Shel, she takes a look at the two of them, casting Detect Magic, trying to see if any magical auras existed.

Spellcraft 10 on first vial, 7 on the second vial. The other rolls were duplicative. Stupid internet connection.

"Looks like its Goblin Hunting for us. Let Alouryn and I get Bingo Cleaned up a little and see if he wants to come with us or head home." Eral will cast one last CLW on Bingo and try to wake him and see if he is conscious enough to talk. "How are you feeling? Any Idea where Eldon was taken?"

Flimsipold's eyes lose a bit of their blurriness (perception: 10), but he gathers that they have found Bingo, the place is a mess, and Eldon is not around. He sits down, and spends some time going over his spell choices for the day.

"Were you able to get the arrow out, Eral?" Murphy inquires of the cleric of Domi.

As he knows most of the people, more or less, from Humble's Ford, and some from Angel Springs and other spots around the valley, does he recognize the fallen halfling? (Knowledge: Local: 16) Or, is the deceased a stranger?

If for some reason Eral did not extract the arrow, using his limited healing skills, Murphy will attempt to do so - after he has Bingo put a wooden stick in his mouth so he does not bite his tongue (Healing: 17). Also, with the healing check, he tries to ascertain how much more aid he may need in this area.

Giving Bingo a few minutes to recover from his ministrations, he spends a little more time examining the field of battle - including moving aside the damaged wagon to see if anything (or anyone) is underneath, or if there are other things tucked in nooks and crannies, or scattered upon the ambush site. (Perception: 26).

"Hazel. Now that we've messed up most of the footprints - do you suppose that Faoil might get the goblin scent, or you get a feel for the footprints we may have missed over here?"

He really was not offended by Bingo referring to them as 'pleasers' - he was more amused, really, which is why he teased him about the moniker. Now that the young father has benefited from a bit more of the healing arts, he returns and asks, "Bingo - what can you tell us about what happened here? Did the goblins take Eldon with them?" He gives him some food and water, and spends a few minutes trying to coax out of him what he might know. He will help him up when he is ready, and get him moved over to the cart.

"Perhaps we should bring Bingo in the wagon. He seems to have stabilized, but I don't think he could make the trip back on his own. However, every second Eldon is with the goblins is one he is in danger. We must follow."

Murphy/Kim  d8+2=10 ;
Saturday October 19th, 2013 10:19:49 PM

Let's assign Murphy's heal check (17) to aid another (+2) for Alouryn (total for her healing check thus is 19). He assists her in removing the arrow - and, if necessary, casts a cure light wounds spell (rolled max: 10) on Bingo immediately afterwards. (that should be 21 hp healing, and maybe 23 if you include +2 from use of the heal skill by Alouryn - so it would be surprising if he's not in fairly decent shape by now).

If Edric, who is quite strong, will help him, they should be able to get Bingo over and up on the cart - that is, if for some reason Bingo is not now strong enough to do it under his own power.

"I agree, Hazel and Edric. Let's follow the trail." He collects anything of importance left among the scattered supplies around the wagon, accepting anyone else's offer to help in that task, gets it aboard.

"I can mend the wagon, make sure it's usable, or we can do that on our way back - if we come this way," the druid says.

"We don't know how long we have to travel. So, let's get going." Murphy gets in the back of the cart with Bingo and whoever else wants or needs to be there. He offers more food and water to Bingo - and again asks if he can tell them anything about the event, and how long ago it may have been.

He also shows Bingo some of the boxes and bags in the cart. "If arrows start coming our way, hide under or between these. We are assigned to get you back in one piece, y'know."

Eral and Alouryn take good care of Eldon. The Goblin arrow is securely removed and many of his wounds healed. Bingo soon looks up with eyes a lot brighter again.
Shel examines the vials but is unable to identify them... they do look rather familiar and pretty comon though... Meanwhile Hazel and Faoil are able to identify the trail where those Goblins took of. The trail leaves the road and dissapears into the woods South of the Old Traider's Road. There's no way Murphy's cart can take you that way... Perhaps Pippa could come alone, but Hazel soon realises it might be best to leave the cart.

Murphy first helps out healing Bingo. Then it's time for some answers...

"They attacked us at nightfall. First arrows were shot at us making our pony panick and run. It made our cart tumbling over. Then suddenly they were all over us... At least 6 Goblins popped out from the forest edge... we tried to defend but there were to many and I got shot. All became blurred but just before I passed out I saw them dragging Eldon into the woods. Eldon was expecting trouble.. why else did he hire that stranger.. but seems he hasn't be able to protect us either...
You must find Eldon... you have to rescue him..

When suggestions are made to take Bingo along on the trip, the man hestitates... "I'm sorry friends but I'm not cut out for Goblin Hunting. You won't be able to take yiur cart with you Murphy. Let me take it back to your home and inform the mayor and Lady Sarabella of what happened."

Sunday October 20th, 2013 7:32:45 PM
"What stranger did Eldon hire, Bingo? Is that the stranger you are speaking of or is it someone else," Shel asks, pointing at the deceased body the group had found.

Shel grabbed the two potions, knowing the group would need them, if their inexperienced group were going goblin hunting.

OOC: After we get Bingo's info, someone else needs to check the two potions. Shel will carry them until then.

"So, Bingo, you said the attack took place at nightfall. Since you all were supposed to be back by yesterday, that must have been night before last, right?" Murphy asks for confirmation. "So you've been here, waiting for help, for a day and a half? Neighbor, I am glad you were able to hang on for so long.

"But Bingo - you are right - you need to get back home to your wife and the bun in the oven - and thank you for offering to take back the cart. The things in the back just make sure my family puts in our burrow once the cart gets there. But give us a few minutes. I need to put some gear on Pippa, then we'll send you on your way. Maybe Alouryn or Eral can speak a blessing over you on your trip back - though it was pretty quiet the way down here."

He takes some gear off of Pippa to place in the cart, and moves some that was on the cart to place in saddlebags on Pippa, so they'll have what's most useful with them on the trail.

Murphy waits for any additional answer or words Bingo and his friends may have to say, and bids him farewell.

He takes a few more minutes to examine Eldon's wagon on its side. Looking for damage, he will cast one mending spell on whichever part of the wagon appears to need it most. "Maybe on the way back we'll hitch Pippa up, and return Eldon's wagon to him."

Finally, he joins Hazel, mentioning to Alouryn and Shel - "Sorry I kept you up all night keeping me awake. No more sleep for us for a while, I'd wager. I hope our lead tracker doesn't fall asleep on the way."

The druid tries to help a bit with the tracking: Survival 20 (2nd roll does not count - grew impatient at lack of response to first attempt to roll)

Eral will work with Murphy on examining the wagon and anything around the area. "There is no use of us heading off if half of the group is going to be falling asleep on their feet but if you think you can make it lets head off not."

Eral will get geared up and pull out his shield and hammer. Following after the trackers and scouts he will head along the path that is chosen.

With a grunt Odo finally hops down from the wagon, stretches, and draws Ratcutter.

"I'm ready whenever you folks are." he announces as he performs a few quick slashes at the air with his longsword.

When the others are all ready to leave he'll try to keep to the back of the group as they travel.

Flim is settled on his spells for the day. The journey was not as comfortable as his own bed, but the straw wasn't so bad for catching winks. "If you get tired, Bingo, just climb in the back. You can be sure those ponies know the way home."

To Hazel and whoever wants to take the lead, he says, "I'll keep a good eye out for the middle backside. Got to work out some important words." He finds a spot about two thirds of the way back in the gaggle.

Monday October 21st, 2013 6:39:26 PM
(First some timeline clarifications. You left yesterday in the middle of the night and rode all day untill you you arrived today at nightfall. So when Bingo sais they were attacked at nightfall Bingo means yesterday evening while you were all celebrating your victory in the children's games.)

Shel and Murphy further talk to Bingo before heading out on the Goblin hunt.
"Yes... he was the one Eldon hired to help us get the wagon safely back in Humble's Ford. We lost quite some time to find someone to make the return trip. But the poor lad didn't stand a chance... Now that I think of it... I don't even know his name... So if you fail to find Eldon alive we will never know who he was... that's bad.

I don't know how long I passed out Murphy... and when I woke up I was all alone... when I tried to pull this arrow out, I passed out again.

Let me take care of your wagon Murphy, and if we can repair the wheelwe will be able to take this wagon back later. I now need to get back to Humble's Ford. How's Lilly? She must be panicking... please find Eldon and come home quickly..."

Then Hazel finds the track and when everyone retrieved all they need from Murphy's wagon the party prepares to go hunting for Goblins... Odo
's quite grumphy from the lack of sleep and Eral is worried that it's ludicrous to go out when most are about to fall a sleep where they stand...

As the group looks over their shoulder they just see Bingo carefuly turning the wagon and raise his hands to the group... ahead of you the forest awaits.

Only a bit later night is falling. The moonlight sheds a macabre light over the forest. A forest filled with noises of all kind... But sole are close to getting exhausted... from Bingo's feedback and Hazel's tracking expertise you know the tracks you are following are about a day old...

So my friends... do you press on or come up with a campsite under the open air...

Before Bingo left, Shel made sure to tell him where to find his expecting wife, at Cora and Eldon's.

"Hazel's right. Even if we were to find the goblins tonight, what good would we do in their terrain in the dark? Resting until first light, then busting our hump to get after them would be the best plan, I think.".

Tuesday October 22nd, 2013 3:45:05 AM

Murphy has two tents. With another's help, each one takes about 5-10 minutes to set up, and sleeps six. He offers to get one or both set up - maybe just one would be better for now, as we need someone on watch - and perhaps not all will want to sleep in a tent. "Flim, you want a tent - help me set this one up. Yeah, I know that's not a typical bard task, but humor me tonight. You're the one who got all the sleep."

He sees to Pippa, offloading her burden, giving her some of the water he brought along, feeding, and brushing her down. If he can tie her near where some grass or safe foliage is, he does so.

The gear, for the most part, he sets near the tent and covers with a canvas, staking it down. He also sets trip lines several feet outside the perimeter of the camp using silk rope, and concealing it carefully (survival: 29 (natural 20)) - and he'll be happy to show anyone else how he did it. He points out to everyone where it is, so that, with care, the members of the group will not trip. Outside the camp a ways he digs a hole for waste, and lets people know where that is. He asks who would like to take that job next time.

For those who did not bring their own, he shares trail rations.

And falls fast asleep in his comfortable bed roll within the tent.

When night falls, the Halflings decide it's no use to further chase the Goblins... besides Hazel will have a hard time following their trail in the dark - even with the cloudless sky and almost full moon... Edric too finds it better to make camp right here and offers to taken second watch...

It worries Hazel that the trail might get cold but all things better that getting lost from sleep deprevation.... Shel nods in agreement. It would be foolish to attack a pack of Goblinoids when they can't see equally well at night.
'Resting until first light, then busting our hump to get after them would be the best plan, I think."

Dispite the fact that the Bard has slept during most of the trip to Bingo, Flim's main concern is where he will sleep... Murphy calm him down offering two tents for the group. He 'encoyrages' Flim to help out with settin up both tents... not very bardlike but not one tent has ever been built by playing music...

Odo offers last watch and then seeks comfort of his bedroll.

Alouryn makes sure she gets her bedroll close to Hazel's... armour undone she quickly falls a sleep.

Murphy mainly concentrates on tending for Pippa and making sure his companions have a safe spot to sleep in. He also prepare a couple of surprises for anyone or anything that appraoches thecampsite.

---------------------------------------------

The night passes quite uneventfull... so like Shel advised, the group rises at first light. Hazel and Faoilcan find the trail quickly. Tents and gear are loaded on Pippa. In no time the group is ready to follow Hazel...

Hazel, please make a DC 12 survival checl please to continue following the Goblin tracks...

Murphy awakens and spends some time in prayer. He breaks fast, then asks Flimsipold to help him take down the tent (we just put up one). He takes down the silk trip lines, covers over the waste hole, repacks Pippa, and heads out with the others.

"I am most certain that dealing with tents is not the proper role for a bard," Flim grumbles. "My fingers do best at flying over the strings, not at pulling up stakes or running tent lines." He speaks slowly to help Murphy understand his reasonable objections. "If I strain my back bending over to do this sort of thing, how will that help us fare against the goblins? You really need to think these things through better, Murphy. No doubt druids go traipsing through the woods all the time, setting up tents willy nilly. But not bards. Nope. Our role is to write things down, and tell stories, and make up songs. So, you do what you do best, and I'll do what I do best."

Despite his protestations, Flimsipold did work with Murphy on the tent set up and take down. He decides the onerous task is grist for the mill.

Settin' Up The Tent
by Hin Billy

First you find a level place
Without too many rocks or bumps
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
Then you lay the ground tarp
Smoothin' out the many lumps
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
Unfold the blasted canvas mess
Spread it even all ways 'bout
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
Then you stake the corners down
Grab two poles and crawl inside
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
One end up - there!
T'other one too - there!
Crawl on out and grab the lines
Pull them taut and stake THEM down!
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
Before your eyes the tent does grow
Two thin poles hold up the canopy
Make all tight and neat and snug
Now your tent is fine for all to see
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
Doing this is lots of work
Murphy made me he is such a jerk
Settin' up the tent
Settin' up the tent
Now I'm sleepy - go inside
Fall asleep and in sweet dreams abide
The tent's set up
The tent's set up
[snoring sounds]

If any object to his singing a song while on the trail of the goblins, he says, "Oh, for pity's sake. They are a day ahead of us. If they can hear that far ahead, I should cut off their ears and sew them on."

Otherwise, he enjoys this jaunt through the woods. But his sling is ready.
