V stands back behind the fighters, and waits upon their actions. Currently, with Royston's smoldering body on the floor, he has little intention of interfering with the Orcs exacting their revenge.

Emrys realizes once he see's Royston's body that it is too late for his spell. Upon hearing the arrival of the slavers and those who pursue them, he simply steps out of the way ... he doesn't wish to impede the chase. He knows they wont get far.

Edson moves to the side.. looking for shadows to slip into. He keeps his eyes on the dwarves.. in his mind it was justice for slavery. But seeing orks attack Dwarves was still off putting.

Emrys finds that he is unable to heal the fallen paladin and steps out of the way when the dwarf and orc arrives, not wanting to impeded the chace.

Tishe hovers, invisible to see how events unfols while Velarin holds back behind the fighters.

Edson slips to the side looking for a shadow and keeps his eyes on the dwarf about to receive justice.

Brom takes a swing at the dwarf but is clearly thrown off by the scene and his blade only finds air. His swing is enough that both dwarves falter and are run down by the orcs. The hammes miss but again startle the dwarves who fall prone. The orcs stand over them brining the hammers up for a coup de grâce. {Not sure if you want to save them or not but I thought I would leave the option.}

As this happens a third orc comes out of the tunnel and smiles at the party. You quickly recognize this as one of the slaves you had freed. Clearly your instructions were not fully followed but he simply nods and waits for the hammers to fall as he speaks in very broken common.

“Last guard. Slaves live.” he points over his shoulder to indicate the direction “Dwarf.” again he points this time to the NE corner of the room to the hallway.

Barratore is torn on what to do, but mercy is mercy and he steps up to the orcs to do what he can to prevent them from killing the dwarves. The minotaur will attempt parry the strikes and calls for the orcs to cease, though he also knows they cannot understand him. Perhaps he movement and great sword coming in will be enough. Perhaps not.

If not, Barratore is really not losing any sleep over it and looks to the NE and heads to the hallway

V waits until whatever is done with the Dwarf is done. "Looks like we have some Dwarves to deal with. After that, we can return for Royston's body to collect for a proper burial, and search the rest of this place for hidden rooms.

V then turns to the Orcs and speaks in their language. "He died a warriors death. An honorable death. We will return for him after we have dealt with the Dwarves. While we do that, we ask that you guard his body until we return for it."

"Edson. You still have true sight and Invisibility. Why don't you get started on advance scouting what's waiting for us to the northeast while we wrap this up. and we will be shortly behind you"

Tishe’ is torn, with one yarn she won’t have any person killed outside of battle or a trial, with another the dwarf has clearly been a slaver which is grounds for summary execution, and on another both the orcs and dwarves hve been clearly identified as evil (her heart gives a quick pang for departed Royston) and they will revert to whatever as soon as the Keepers have gone, so why bother?

The hero, however, raises her hands and creates a 6’ Resilient Sphere around the probe dwarf! Maybe an example will sway minds when emotions are cooled, like a dye setting into a skein after shocked with cold water.

“By the Powers! Your actions will lead to the Lands of Unrest!”, she tells the orcs and dwarves. “Both groups have abilities that can make both rich without slavery if you choose to work together. Look at us, for example. We look very different, of different races, yet can accomplish much when working together.”

Barratore doe manage to stop one hammer from falling but the second hammer connects ending one of the slave guards. The half-orc who was one of those you had freed earlier smiles and hearing Emrys’s questions responds still trying to use common as best he can.

“Ten orcs two times. I kill dwarf and get hammers. Sleep area there, me girl there.” he gestures for the Keepers to follow “Tell orc you help. Tell make you dwarf go… we wait.” he heads off down the tunnel he came from.

The tunnels snakes in a narrow S shape that would be well over one hundred feet if it were straight. It opens to a medium sized cavern with a table and chairs. In this room are two orcs each kind of wearing pieces of dwarven armor and carrying dwarven weapons. These orcs are heavily scared and have clearly been abused in the past. You assume that this cavern was the guard post.

Past the another cavern opens up, a much bigger cavern. Eighteen orcs, of various ages and sex, are in this room looking scared and hopeful. They brighten a bit when the orc that was speaking enters but clearly do no know what to do with the sight of the keepers. A dwarf lies dead in the middle of the room, most of his armor is gone which lets you know where the orcs got their bits of armor.

While this is happening Edson invisibly scouts the passage that leads to the north form the forge room. {D1} The passageway moves north about seventy feet before terminating at a large metal door. A quick examination shows the door is not trapped and you can hear muffled voices from the other side. The voices are too muffled to make out. {Edson I have positioned you at the door on the map. You all can assume he communicates what he has found.}

While the Orc quickly leads most of the group back to his kin, V speaks in Elven to those that can understand it.

"This might be an excellent opportunity to make a better place of the wold, and influence the future of the area. To these Orcs, we have come as liberators, helping them to be free from oppression and slavery. After we have dealt with the dwarves, laying the ground work for these Orcs living peacefully here may be possible. Perhaps even one day, trading goods peacefully with the outside peoples. Unless they are indeed inherently evil, at which point, we will be back in the future. I would like to think that there is the possibility that Royston's death not only was heroic and honorable in the here and now, but helped to make the Wold a better place for the future as well."

"just a thought, but either way, we should wrap up the introductions quickly and get back to Edson and deal with the Dwarves."

Once in the room, V turns to the Orc that knows some of our language, and in Orc speaks with him. "What is your name?" V then introduces himself and the rest of the Keeper's. He then calls out to the assembled people in Orc. "We are known as the Keeper's of the Vale. We are here to help you, and to stop the Dwarven slavers. We must go now to deal with the Dwarves, but we will return and speak with you all when we are done.

V turns back to the Keeper's, and quickly translates what has been said. "Anything else we need to cover for now? or shall we go catch up to Edson?"

Barratore follows V in and stands a dozen or so feet behind the elven wizard to be less scary. At V’s introduction, he raises aa hand. “ I am Barratore steelwind.”

The fighter does not hang around long, but moves to catch up with Edson at the door. Barratore keeps his weapons and shield stowed so he can easily draw what he might need

Velarin outlines a plan of action for the orcs and tells them that the Keepers will go live with the dwarves. The orcs agree and this time agree to stay where they are now that the bulk of them are safe. The idea of working for themselves is taken well and you get the idea that many years of selective breading may have made them more intelligent than the average orc. That done he asks if there is anything else to cover.

Tiseh waits knowing that there are more difficulties to come.

Barratore says that he will kick in the door and that he and Brom will lead the charge. He asks about any buffs that should be cast first.

You are all gathered in front of the large metal door.

Brom doesn't say anything about the orcs revenge. While he would have preferred to bring all the dwarves in alive, he does understand the orcs feelings.

At the door, Brom is fine with anything. He plans to move to engage the wizards using his ring and bring them down quickly as possible.

"Unfortunately, I have used all my group buff spells, and we have not had an opportunity for me to regain spells. I can however bring in some additional support for the front line, as well as a door opener."

Once the group is ready, after receiving any buff spells able to be thrown by the other casters, V begins casting, and several seconds later a huge Earth Elemental appears. V will direct it in Terran to open the doors, and then attack the Dwarves beyond the doors. V will move to the side of the door when it is opened so as not to be in the way of the greeting that likely awaits.

The room before you is far and away the biggest room you have seen so far. Well crafted stone tiles cover the floor while black stone tiles make up the walls. To the west are two rooms that are clearly kitchens. Directly to the right is a walled in sleeping area that it appears the bulk of the dwarves use while on the north wall are individual rooms. Also to the north is a very large passageway leading deeper, the glimmer of light on water seems to be present in that direction.

This area would normally looked well lived in but any furnishings that were in the main room have been pushed back to the walls leaving what is about to become an open battlefield.

In the room you find the two remaining wizards and the escaped fungal queen leading an forces of the remaining dwarves and a furnace golem. The are spaced out around the room and clearly well prepared for battle. Additionally you can see three spore pods that have been precast by the fungal queen. Additionally, you can only assume that the wizards took the opportunity to prepare their remaining forces.

All this is seen around the body of the huge earth elemental that is about to be bathed in flames and spells from the prepared dwarves. Immediately as the door opens the earth elemental is hit by a gout of flame from the furnace golem and enveloped in a ball of fire from the green wizard. {Breath Weapon Dam: 30 Ref 19 for ½ | Fireball Dam: 38 Ref 19 for ½}

The caster in green curses as he sees that he hit a simple construct while the yellow caster bellows to his companions.

“Smash them on the anvils of your hate! The will not take the lake or those below!”

What do you do now?

{ooc: Velarin, I moved the elemental to the neared dwarf and you would have been able to get an attack off, feel free to do so with this post.}

Tishe’ flies into the room to get some maneuver space. Spying the spores, Tishe’ decides pre-emptively exploding the spores will be better than having them menacing the team. And since the spores are closer to the dwarfs right now...

The Spellweaver casts Magic Missle, two missles at the spore closest to the entrance, and three Missles at the Teal dwarf nearby. (Spore. 4 dam; Teal Dwarf. SR 25 11 dam.)

Then she casts a Quickened Scorching Ray ; one at Spore#2 and two at the nearby Purple Dwarf! (Spore TouchAC 23 Dam 15; Purple Dwarf TouchAC 27,25; SR 19fail, 30; Dam 11)

Barratore gives V a small smile, he liked the earth elemental idea and pours in right behind the creature as it opens the door. Barratore squints instinctively as the fire erupts about the powerful elemental and
chuckles to himself a bit as he hears the dismay of the wizards at realizing their target.

If Tishe's spells have destroyed the spore to the left of the entrance, Barratore draws his sword, activates his familty Torc and moves past the dwarven fighter at the wizard.
He knew he was exposing himself momentarily to the fighter, but getting right on top of the spellcaster was worth it. He noted Brom was heading to take out the other one.

The summoned elemental takes the full brunt of both magical attacks, slightly lessened by his natural resistance(DR). As the attacks hit, he reaches out and punches the purple warrior(last round), followed seconds later by 2 more blows. Missing all three times.(seriously? a 3, a 1, and a 5? The Woldian die roller is ridiculous)

With the path in front of him cleared by the fighters, V moves up into the air, and into the room, positioning himself so as to cast a maximized cone of cold that will effect as many of the bad guys as possible without getting his companions(Looked like I could at least get the black cleric and fungal queen without putting myself in a vicarious location) V's wave of magic washes around the bad guys, who are unaffected due to their SR(and a second 1 in four rolls. I surrender)

Brom, activating a ring, disappears and reappears next to the yellow wizard as he slips into a rage. He then gathers some extra energy and swings hard at the wizard connecting. Dumb ass GM forgot to state they had mirror image up and since you could see it it didn’t happen.

Tishe’ casts a flurry of spells striking, but not destroying, both spore pods. The rest of her magics hit the lt. blue and purple dwarves singing there beards but not doing a lot of damage.

Barratore, seeing the spore pod is not dead and having no clear path, charges in and finishes off the spore.

Velarin flies into the room and casts a cone of cold. The fungal queen and the cleric are unaffected but he does destroy the second fungal pod. {If you want to give me the location you want, I just moved you into a spot that could get both and was not in immediate danger.}

Emrys, unsure what he is facing decides to prepare to protect those in his charge. He mutters a few words of necromancy and another spectral hand appears.

Edson……….

The yellow wizard, bleeding, takes a quick step away from Brom and gestures with his hands while mumbeling some arcane words. A Wall of Clockwork appears between the barbarian and the wounded wizard. {Concentration 21, in case Brom has some ability to step up – rolled a 4!}

The Furnace Golem, not being smart, continues to attack the earth elemental. {Hit: 32/38 Dam: 21+4 Fire/32+9 Fire}

Seeing Brom appear and cause a terrible injury to the wiazard the fungal queen changes her focus and casts one of her innate spells. {Brom DC20 Will – Slow Spell}

The black cleric, thankful to not have been devastated by the cold, moves closer to Brom and begins casting a spell.

The lt. blue and purple warriors collapse on Barratores positon and each swing their hammers. The lt. blue misses but the purple connects with one blow. {Hit: 32/41 Confrim: 30 Dam: 18}

Finally, the green wizard spots the flying Velarin and grins. He mumbles a few words and tosses a bit of clay at the flying wizard as he casts a spell. {Velarin DC21 Will – Feeblemind}

Having not been directed elsewhere, the Elemental continues it's attacks on the purple warrior, hitting ac 33/33 for 12 and 28 damage.

V feels his mind being assaulted by the spell of the wizard, and shakes off the effect(will save 30) before flying to the western wall, between the two rooms' doors, at 40' in the air. He then drops an empowered fireball in the NW corner of the room, so that it only effects the fungal queen and the black cleric. 65 damage, reflex save of 26 for 32 damage.(SR 32. Finally!)

The dwarves converge on Barratore and he slashes each of them as they do.

One of them lands a glancing blow, but more importantly, Barratore notes he has been cut off from his intentional target. He would have to deal with the dwarves.
Barratore sweeps the blue dwarf's weapon away and slashes multiple times across him.

Emrys moves 30ft forward and gets a good look of the large room. He spots the Green Wizard casting what looks to be mind affecting magiks.

"Oh no you don't! That's my job!" He then utters the word "BLIND!" which seems to magically echo within the chamber. The word feels like a headbutt to the green wizard.

The closest spores vaporized, Tishe’ looks about and sees the Keepers resisting many of the spells on their own; “ no need to try and counter so many spellcasters then”, she comments to herself, “good.”

Instead, she focuses on making sure this is the last battle needed. Weaving two Magic’s into a more powerful, Coalesced whole, the Spellweaver targets the Fungal Queen with a dull blue ray, heroically ensuring the Ray strikes the monster, and traps her in the cavern!

Brom resists the spell but faces a clockwork wall. As most would do, he quickly moves around the end of the wall to peruse the dwarf he had already injured. This time though as he approaches the wizard the wizard smiles and as he yells for the golem.

After getting hit once Barratore absolutely lays into one of the dwarves. The light blue warrior falls cradling his guts while the purple takes a nasty cut as well.

Emrys moves thirty feet forward and blinds the Green Wizard. The wizard is clearly stunned by this development! This is followed by Tishe anchors the Fungal Queen to this plane so she cannot escape again.

Velarin’s elemental pounds away on the purple warrior landing two blows. At the same time he launches a fireball that engulfs the fungal queen and the ranged archer, neither of which manage to avoid any of the damage! Both the fungal queen and the cleric have taken a substantial amount of damage but continue to fight. Also this damage has stopped the clerics spell form completing.

Edson…… well who the hell knows, maybe he is at the Giggling Ghost.

The cleric spares Velarin a wither glance before moving around the wall himself and casting another spell, without such a long casting time. As the spel completes a vertical column of holy fires flashes into existence engulfing Baratore, Emyrs and Tishe’! {DC19 Ref for ½ - Dam: 34 – half fire half holy}

The yellow wizard again takes a small step away from the enraged Brom and fires several scorching hot rays at his antagonist. All three rays strike the barbarian. {Hit vs Touch: 19/25/22 Dam: 15/11/10}

The Furnace Golem listens to the wizard and moves to slam, and possibly grab, Brom. {Hit: 30 Dam: 23+4 Fire Grab: 54} The blow lands and it manages to grapple Brom.

The green wizard, now blind, attempts to delay things by stumbling backwards towards the wall.

Finally the purple warrior attempts to hold the line, raising his shield and opting for total defense while yelling “I can’t hold. KILL THEM!” at the mage that he does not know is now blind.

The elemental takes an attack of opportunity on the furnace golem, whiffing with an ac 24. He then turns his attention back to the purple warrior, missing both times...again,,,(with a 3 and a 6.)

V, obviously irritated at the ineffectiveness of his elemental, drops another empowered fireball between the yellow wizard and black cleric so as to get them both, as well as the fungus queen and the furnace golem in the blast, but leave Brom un-singed. 68 damage reflex save of 26 for 34 damage. (SR 25. Success, barely)

Barratore notices the column of fire too late to do much about it. Thanks to V's spell of protection though, it does little. The dwarf raises his shield and assumes a defensive
posture. A posture, Barratore knows will do him little good. Barratore works over his defences and quickly leaves him dying on the floor

Seeing Brom in trouble, Emrys invokes Divine Appeal to the Great Culverwood. He calls forth freedom of movement to break the golem's grasp. He sends forth his spectral hand to deliver the touch.

(Emrys uses Divine Appeal, Bloodwitch ability, to cast Freedom of Movement on BROM ... 4th level cleric spell.)

Velarin’s elemental is again ineffective for anything other then clogging the field but the wizard shows his power. Again he calls forth an exploding ball of flame that baths many of the combatants. As the flash of light fades the group can see that the Yellow Wizard, Cleric and Fungal Queen are all dead! The fires also battered the Furnace Golem but it is immune to fire.

Tishe’, not to be outdone, launches a pair of lighting bolts at the golem. Both bolts connect but one of them seems to do no damage. Still some damage was done.

Edson is in the fight. He slips into the room, invisible, and is only see as he and Barratore take down the remaining warrior quickly and efficiently. Barratore turns towards the cleric only to see that he is nothing but charred remains.

Brom is caught tight by the golem and fails to break the grasp. This ends quickly as Emrys casts a spell freeing him and making him impossible to grapple for some time!

The golem holds its position and again attempts to slam Brom, this time with both fists. {Hit: 42/30 Damage: 25+6 Fire / 23+5 Fire}

The blind green wizard, having been unmolested for a few seconds gets his wits about him, whispers and gestures before he disappears. The arcane casters of your group recognize a teleport spell when they see one.

V, pleased at the effectiveness of his fireballs, directs the Elemental to attack the Golem. It moves under the airborne Tishe and takes a swing at the metal beast, which it does striking it (ac 35) for the minimum damage of 12.

V watches in extreme irritation at the Wizards disappearing trick, and quickly ponders his spell possibilities for a way to bring him back or find him easily, and is again irritated as nothing presents itself. He is about to take his irritation out on the furnace golem when he holds back, choosing to conserve his spells and allow the fighters to quickly turn it into scrap metal.

He waits until they have dismantled it before reminding them that the wizard had mentioned us not taking the lake and others below. We weren't done yet.

“Piggies! One got away!” Tishe’ is angry with herself for not ‘grounding’ the spellcasters before getting into the battle. Now they have a rogue leader who will only re-enslave the mines as soon as they are gone!

Tishe’ flies further into the room, giving the Furnace Golem a wide berth. She waits to see if the melee fighters are able to bring the construct down. If it’s still standing, she casts another Sonic Lightning Bolt.

Velarin’s elemental slams its firsts off the furnace golem but the dense metal resists the damage. Velarin, irritated at losing the wizard, turns to vent his spleen on the golem but stays his hand, letting the others finish off the construct.

Barratore quickly locates the last opponent and delivers a mighty blow to the construct. This blow is quickly followed by another bolt of lightning that makes a patch on the front and back of the golem glow red.

Finally, Brom does what Brom does not slams the furnace golem over and over again until its animating force is destroyed leaving an empty, warm, husk.

The room is quiet for a few beats as the adrenalin leaves the bodies of the Keepers. They look about and see that this is indeed a sleeping area and that nothing appears to be trapped and there are now more dwarves hiding.

Velarin reminds the Keepers of what the dwarves said about not taking the lake and 'those below'. Still you can all fell that, while there is a problem to be addressed, it is not something that cannot wait for a bit.

As this very brief sweep is finished the orc who now seems to be the leader comes into the room smiling and speaking in broken common.

“Strong saviors. You would make good orc war leaders! We talked and will not make trouble. Would like to stay, build life here. Trade if can.”

He clearly looks hopefull. Over time he would ask the the orcs be allowed to stay and keep enough gear to defend themselves. Some armor and weapons but not too much. His idea is to trade things they make with the villages around. That said the orcs have had no contact and do not know how the mood of the tows is. They also do not know anything about the lake you find at the end of the short passage to the north. {See slide 2}

The lake you find is over one thousand feet across though not all the wide in an arching cavern. From what you can see it gets progressively deeper as it moves from the shore. The first person to walk in that direction is also surprised when any enchantments that are active stop functioning. It is clear that there is an anti-magic property to the lake.

The party has some dwarves locked in the mansion. {I almost forgot about them.} The party must also decide the fate of the orcs.

Between the gear on the dwarves and what has been found in the living area the Keepers have quite a haul of items, gems and gold. The orcs do not wish to keep much, four pieces of armor and four weapons. If this is allowed the following remains.

3x - Amulet of Natural Defense +3 - 18,000gp each
3x - Heandsbans of Vast Intellect +4 -16,000gp
2x - Rings of Featherfall - 1,100gp each
1x - Ring of Spell Storing 50,000gp each
1x - Pearl of Power lvl3 9,000gp each

V thanks the Elemental, and then dismisses him to his home plane, and then turns to look at the orc, at his friends and at the pile of loot. "We have 15,000 in rubies from earlier as well. Anyone got anything against these Orcs trying to make a peaceful and honest living here in these caves? And, while cash is always fine and dandy, is anyone opposed to leaving them 4 of the breastplates and the 2 Earthbreakers and 2 Warhammers? Perhaps even a longbow or two as well? I would think that is a start for them considering generations of servitude."

V waits for an answer before answering the Orc

"We are obviously not done here my friends. Right off the bat, we have Dwarves in the Mansion to deal with, we are definitely in need of rest. we have an escaped wizard, an antimagic lake, and "others" beyond it that the wizard did not want us to get to. Following all that fun, we should definitely have a word with the nearby villages regarding these Orcs, perhaps even taking one or two of them with us to meet the villagers."

Edson just stares at the loot. If no one claims the ring of spell storing, he"ll claim it. Something a friend of his named Zeoll shared with him.

Tishe’ helps with gathering and identifying the magical treasures and considers Velarin’s words. “I don’t think there is anything we can do about the anti-magic lake or the dwarf wizard that got away, more’s the pity. What we can do is maybe help the groups here set up some cooperation.”

And inspiration strikes. “What we have here is something very similar to the history of Cinnamon Valley! Several groups of different people under the tyranny of a great evil that is taken down by a hero group. The group then suggests a Council where all the different groups have a say to run the place. “

“ In Cinnamon Valley it was Hill People, Druids, Hmanas, and Witches subjugated by Royd the Merciless and when freed established the Pitchfork Council.”

“Here we have the Villages, Dwarfs, and Orcs subjugated by Wizards and now free to establish a common governing body. The only thing they need is direction. “

"I have no issue with the orcs wanting to make this mine their home ... and the prospect of fair trade is always a benefit to all. As long as they don't attempt to pursue the same conventions these dwarves employed here. Other than that, I wholeheartedly wish them good luck."

While he says these things, he takes out one of his specimen bottles and takes samples of the Fungus Queen's fungi for study. May produce interesting potions he thinks.

Velarin dismisses his elemental and makes sure the full loot list is up to date. He points out that that orcs seem to want to make a peaceful and honest living and has no problem with leaving them some weapons and armor.

Edson is worred less about the politics then personal gain and would like the ring of spell storing.

Tishe’ helps with the gathering and identifying of the treasure while considering Velarins words. The thinks they may have a special situation here, recounting the events of Cinnamon Valley and the council that was created.

Emrys, like the others thinks that the orcs could make a home. Fair trade seems a good thing.

The orcs do explain on interesting property of the local ore to the party. While within or near the mine the woldblood streaked ore resists magic that effect quickly lessens as you move away from the mine.

They are happy with the idea of trade and look on the group as their saviors, they will willingly do whatever is asked of them including meeting with the townsfolks. The townsfolk will take some time but will come around to them as the partner. It is only late in the conversation that the lead orc expresses concern of the lake. He knows nothing about it but does no that the wizards, and other dwarves, would occasionally speak of it.

Before leaving the lake would be examined one more time. The ceiling in above the lake arches up at least one hundred feet. There are rickety boats and rafts near the shore with oars, examination proves they are not stellar work but are seaworthy in spite of their appearance. The boats each hold two to four people of medium size. There are also two large rafts that would hold ten. There are no active threats in the area, as there was not earler.

Barratore has no issue with the orcs stating at first glance at least. "I think we grant them the armor and weapons as well as
some coin and any of the normal provisions within this complex. Generations of slavery cannot be simply paid for, but I believe we should
provide some compensation. What say you all to 500gp for each orc? But as we discuss this, what do we do with the dwarves then? Do we have a location relatively far from here
where they could make start over."

Barratore gives it some thought, "Perhaps we find a clan willing to foster them? The Scab?"
Know Local 26 to think of someone who may have a contact to the dwarves in the Scab

Barratore agrees with Tishe that The Keepers need to facilitate a meeting between the villages and the orcs. Barratore is confident that the orcs
understand the consequences of following the dwarven path as demonstrated.

Barratore is interested in one of the Headbands, and will put the 8,000 of his share into the group kitty for it

Barratore is for introducing the orc leader to the villagers tomorrow morning. While the wizards need rest to gain spells back, he and Brom don't and could leave now to go back and work on setting up the meeting

"Oh yess... the lake from my vision. I almost forgot! We should investigate before leaving ... learn of its significance."

"Ain't there laws against slavery in the valley?" He says. "Should be the laws job, not ours ta decide their punishment." He says. "Take 'em back an let the council decide."

Brom is not interested in keeping any of the items and will just take his cut. Besides he thinks the headbands look like girly headbands- too frail to be on his head.

Brom has no problem leading the orc leader back to the village to introduce him to the village leaders. Even help to broker a trading agreement between the two peoples.

Tishe’ was hoping for a multi-lateral Council that included the dwarfs as well as the orcs and villagers, but she has to admit re-locating the dwarfs to the Scab would work too.

She doesn’t like the idea of exploring the lake at all. “Anti-magic water and rickety boats is a recipe for everyone drowning. Better if we were to just seal it up!” Not being a strong swimmer or fighter, the Spellweaver uses magic to do things like defend herself and breathe. The anti-magic lake scares her worse than facing a hundred BloodWeed monsters!
