Roland woke up the moment Turin closed the door. He sat upright and looked to his left and saw an empty bed. He later dressed and walking down the steps to the table Turin reserved. He sat down on the wooden chair. "Good morn!"

Robyn Stratsworth

The sun shining through the curtains woke her up in the morning. When she went down to the main floor Turin and Roland had already half finished eating. Her food had gotten a bit could, but was still acceptable. She wolfed down the omelette with bacon Turin had ordered for her. After eating it she heaved a sigh of satisfaction. "How did you know that I would like that? It's one of my favourite dishes."

For Kirûn and Bober:

You do some exploration in the two small arenas. One of the arenas is empty when you go there. It has mostly the same structure as the arena you had been watching the fight in, but much smaller. The other small arena has a fight just starting in it when you go there. A fight between an orc and a human. An organizor walks up to you and asks you whether one of you would like to fight a wild wolf in the other arena.

OOC: you have the choice of watching the fight here or participating yourselves.
Also waiting on a post from Terias.

For Turin's group:

After finishing to eat you are now ready to leave. You leave by the front gate. For several hours you follow the directions Lord Easthome had described to you, only needing to use the map he had given you a few times. All through the day's journey vegetation grows scarcer and the mountains loom closer and closer. As night falls, you can see that you still have about ten hours journey ahead of you. You have the choice of making it at night and getting to the mountains around the break of dawn, or you can camp for the night.

OOC: Larry you can just incorporate your answer to Robyn's question in your post. Waiting on a post from Therlion too.

Turin

Turin and roland had been gobbling down food like hungry animals when Robyn showed up. Turin quickly wiped clean his face and sat up straighter, not wanting to look like a complete beast in front of the lady.

When she asked about the meal, he had responded,

"Actually, I had ordered a little of everything that they had on the menu, and by the time you came down for breakfast, what you found was basically all that was left."

Turin smiled sheepishly, feeling pretty stupid now.

Then the party had set off, and had traveled all day, and even up to sunset. There was no reason to go any further this night.

"Let us set up camp here, for it appears to be quite a nice place to do so. We shall be all the better tomorrow if we rest now. Roland, go find us some firewood and Robyn, scout about and see if we have a river nearby for fishing, or maybe a rabbit. I will set up the tents and prep the area."

dplax · 05-13-2004, 03:08 PM

A general area description for Turin's team:

Camp was set up on the edge of a small patch of trees. To the west plains stretched for a long way, and after that to a distance they could not see was the town they had departed that morning from. To the north was the small expanse of trees, though they were not as small as to be able to see through. To the east a rocky land could be seen, where mostly grass grew, and in the far distance loomed the foothills of the mountains they were headed for. To the south only grasslands could be seen.

Robyn Stratsworth

"I was lucky then to get that food."-she replied with a slight giggle to Turin's remark, and the embarassment visible on the man's face. After she finished eating they were off. At nightfall Turin decided that they were going to stop for the night. He told her to look for something to eat. She obliged scouting around in the forest to the north of them. She saw lots of birds and small mammals like squirells and rabbits, but she was not fast enough to catch a rabbit and she did not have any snares with her. Just as she was giving up hope she suddenly tripped on something. Getting up she saw that it was a large rabbit, who stood motionless, visibly shaken by the blundering human knocking into it. Robyn deftly using the opportunity grabbed hold of the rabbit's ears, which suddenly coming to its senses started to wriggle desperately in her grasp. It was not able to break through though and five minutes later Robyn got back to the campsit with the rabbit still alive in her grasp. She handed it towards Turin. "Will this do?"

Turin

"What? You simply caught it with no tools nor weapon? How did...nevermind. I suppose it is a trick that the elves taught you, right? Well, when Roland gets back, we'll have a good bedtime dinner.

Now hand me the rabbit."

Turin prepared the rabbit, knowing that Roland would not take very long to find enough firewood. He even located a mint plant that would do well in the recipe he was going to cook up tonight.

The Fallen One · 05-13-2004, 11:26 PM

Thinking, Terias didnt want to abandon his mission. But wasnt that also part of his mission? To act as a captive and find out more? He Decided that he would see how fate would lead him around. He turned to the Stranger and said " I shall accomapany you, but may i ask your name? I am Terias, a wizard"

dplax · 05-14-2004, 02:02 AM

For Terias:

While they half-walked and half-ran out of the prison area the man told his name to Terias along with a short history about himself. He was called Oronuin. He grew up on the other side of the mountains, but then his thirst for adventure brought him hereabouts. Somehow the enemy found out one of his grandparents was an elf and inprisoned him. He was now 29 years old, but had passed the last 6 years of his life in the stronghold's dungeons. They turned another corner and then Oronuin pulled Terias back behind the corner. The glimpse that Terias could catch of what was beyond the corner was that of several orcish guards talking loudly amongst themselves in front of a large metal grill."This is the prison's exit. This is where I need your help. Can you get rid of the guards?" Upon a second glance Terias could see that there were 11 guards in the room.

Robyn Stratsworth

She blushed slightly when Turin aked her how she captured the rabbit.

"Let us just say that I was lucky."

Robyn then busied herself in helping Turin prepare the rabbit, however she did not participate in its killing.
