Smon: Dagda are you following them through the gate?
Sandor Sunneson: is there a clear run?
Sandor Sunneson: yes
Smon: yes but they are all out of sight through the gate.
Sandor Sunneson: Dagda will head off in a circle away from the hooded figures, but go at speed in a hope to get ahead of them
Smon: OK so you're not warning the others... Dagda runs through the gate and sees the others heading down the track east through scrubby fields, no sign of their stalkers.
Sandor Sunneson: Now he'll approach them,
Smon: Shieldb and Hakeem hear heavy footsteps behind them as a big Tharbrian comes running up.
Smon: Suddenly the black clad figures of Nerathi assassins burst forth from the shadows, lunging at Hakeem!

chris107: (The price has just gone up Bill )
DESTROYERBILL: yeah
Smon: Downstairs several bolts are drawn back, and you see a cosy farmhouse thronged with a large family, a sturdy Antillian farmer and his sons eyeing you cautiously, weapons ready.
Smon: He beckons you in.
Smon: Aya: "Thanks..."
chris107: Hakeem thanks him and hands over the gold.
Smon: "He opens it, nods. "Thank you, milord."
DESTROYERBILL: thanks you will be repaided in greater amount of mony
Smon: "We have a warm fire, and will bring furs and bedrolls for you... He looks to Shieldbiter. "Are ye the one slew Tarcon of Trade?"
chris107: "A warm bed, some clean bandages and a little stew would serve us well."
Smon: "Stew - aye, Mona makes good stew."
Smon: You are welcomed in, the womenfolk fuss over you (esp Helga) taking your sodden clothes to dry at the fire, bringing bowls of stew and hard bread.
chris107: Hakeem keeps a low profile.
chris107: "So Dagda, what plans do you have?"
Sandor Sunneson: Dagda says thank you, quality countryside fare
Smon: Aya gratefully slips off her sodden rain-shawl and toasts herself at the fire, smiling. "This is the life, eh?" Helga nods: "Beats those accursed cells!"
Sandor Sunneson: I have none, I am happy to be free away from the fight pits,
Smon: Helga - https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_-_PyDLr0TMc57Kzdv3MUpP7UJioitvkOmyTtWd-vmRcidMHpBWvDg9SVovTfs5nT4YdzncUkWbA2_1Y7DU1I3wqq1EqZnvWbIkVd5miRIoglVsWl3vR10TS9B2Km4tHYGen4BFrL3DIx/s320/Barbarian_af19dd_5916081.jpg - looks over at Dagda. "How did you end up beside Aya and me in Gorok's pens?"
chris107: "Your sword arm is strong and your whits keen. Perhaps you could join us for a time?"
Sandor Sunneson: I was on a pirate ship, and surrendered to save my crew and sold off as a slave
Smon: OOC you get 3900 xp each for killing those assassins!
chris107: Nice!
Sandor Sunneson: I hold my captor no hard feelings, he could have killed us all
Smon: Helga nods, smiling. "Noble of you, Tharbrian. I got drunk in a tavern one night..."
chris107: Hakeem needs about 30K to level. So advancing nidely
Smon: Aya: "Hakeem, how is Malenn? It's been so long since I've seen either of you."
Sandor Sunneson: If we get into more fights and end up victorious, then I maybe able to improve my equipment too
chris107: "She, and the boy, we have a son now. Are well."
chris107: "I would urge you to go stay with her at Thusia Aya. At least until the war is over."
Smon: Helga smiles to Dagda: "Me too! I feel a little under-equipped..." She indicates her scanty pit-fighting attire.
chris107: "Prince Shielbiter may be able to help you both once we reach Trade. He has pots of money!"
DESTROYERBILL: when we get back your getting full plate helga
Smon: Aya looks at Hakeem thoughtfully. "That is wonderful, that you have a son. I suppose I will go to Thusia. There is little enough now in Selatine I expect."
Sandor Sunneson: Are you confident of victory in the near future in this war Hakeem?
DESTROYERBILL: yeah
Smon: Helga looks to Shieldbiter, eyes widening. "Full plate? Me, a Knight?!" She smiles happily.
chris107: "The war will be long and hard fought. But we will prevail."
chris107: "And Aya, we have friends going to free selatine soon. You will have your lands back and more. Much more!"
DESTROYERBILL: yeah full plate helga
Smon: The farmer brings over a jug and small cups. "Some ouzo? Ghinarian."
chris107: "And we will search for Max."
DESTROYERBILL: nah
Smon: Helga looks delighted at the thought of herself in shining armour. "I will need fitted, of course..."
Sandor Sunneson: Our adventure is long landowner, alcohol only comes in celebration at victory
chris107: "Aye,just a little. Thank you. You will be richly rewarded by my friend over there." He points at Prince Shieldbiter
Smon: The farmer nods, pours ouzo for Hakeem. Helga and Aya also take some. He pours last for himself, then drinks.
chris107: Just a warming sip of the anniseed flavoured liquer
Smon: "So, bandits on the road? Do they live?"
chris107: "They most surely do not sir."
DESTROYERBILL: i freak lightning strike killed them
Sandor Sunneson: We extinguished their lives, they will not threaten you
Smon: "Good. Ever since Yusan fell, times have been hard. The trade he bought is gone, but starving remnants of his army remain... Wretched dogs. Killing them is a kindness."
Smon: The burly farmer looks over at Shieldbiter. "Lightning? You jest..." he seems unsure.
DESTROYERBILL: didnt you here the thunder
Smon: A handsome young farmer's son pours Helga more ouzo. She knocks it back, smiling happily at him. "My, you're a nice one..."
Sandor Sunneson: Anyway, shall we get some rest? You wounded need to rest especially
Smon: He grins back. "Thank you... You're wounded... I have some skill at healing, shall I wrap your wounds?"
chris107: "I'll keep watch, at least for the first few hours."
DESTROYERBILL: please do
Smon: Helga: "Yes... rest..."
chris107: (Hakeem, who has never had more than 10GP in his life can only imagine what the 25,000GP price on his head looks like and what it is doing to stir up greed among the townsfolk)
Smon: GM: You settle down to rest, noticing that Helga and the handsome youth have retired to the rear room, while most of the family retreat upstairs (actually up-ladder).
chris107: Can we rest enough to use healing dice?
Smon: After an hour you have short-rested, but notice that Helga and the farmer's son have not returned.
Smon: yup
chris107 rolls 15d12+75 and gets: 7, 9, 10, 11, 7, 8, 10, 3, 6, 3, 2, 3, 5, 4, 12, (+75) = 175
Smon: You also notice the eyes of two of the farmer's youngest watching you from the croft.
DESTROYERBILL: someone shoiled check on her
chris107: 209/209, 2 HD left.
chris107: I think she will be fine
Smon: Aya yawns: "I expect she's getting on fine..."

Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 4,
Smon: ok
DESTROYERBILL: i dont have to go soon
Sandor Sunneson: 30 minutes more will do fine
Smon: The night passes peacefully as you share watches, although Helga spends the night in the back room and returns next morning looking like the cat that got the cream.
Smon: You long rest, so get half your hd back.
Smon: /roll d8
Smon rolls 1d8 and gets: 7,
chris107: "Prince Shieldbiter. Have you heard of a place, far to the south of even your families lands. The Isle of Three Swords?"
DESTROYERBILL: no
Smon: Outside the storm has passed, there is even a little sunlight peaking through the clouds.
Smon: The farmers give you breakfast, flat cakes & sausage with apples.
chris107: "Perhaps you and our friend Dagda would join me searching for this island?"
chris107: (He mentions this only in whispers, not even Aya should hear the name.)
Sandor Sunneson: I would be glad to assist you in this mission
DESTROYERBILL: ill hellp
Smon: (OK was about to have NPCS pipe up!)
chris107: "Thank you my friends."
Smon: GM: After breakfast & ablutions you bid farewell to the farmers and head east down the road towards Ahyf, passing the morning traffic.
chris107: (Not Malenn nor even Lady Meda can know the secret. It will be the only place to take his son should things go wrong)
Smon: The clouds clear and a hot sun beats down, steam rises from pools of muddy rainwater.
chris107: Toward Ahyf?
chris107: Not Trade?
Smon: Trade sorry
chris107: phew
DESTROYERBILL: brb
Smon: The road goes Ahyf-Trade but you go east
Smon: Helga seems a bit unsteady on her pins despite the extensive succouring she received last night, but you make reasonable time.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
chris107: "Aya, I have a friend at Thusia. An ugly, smelly little fellow named Ursa. He will protect you while I am gone. And provide you with funds."
chris107: "He i going to Selatine with others to retake the temple of Apollo."
Smon: Passing a few farms and inoffensive travellers, towards evening you arrive at Trade, the port village now held by Shieldbiter.
Smon: Aya nods to Hakeem. "As you will... I will be happy to go with him to Selatine. And... thanks Hakeem. I owe you my life."
chris107: "And will make sure your lands and more are resecured."
DESTROYERBILL: i show off my new wings
DESTROYERBILL: to my town
chris107: Nice wings
Smon: GM: The gates are thrown open. The loyal folk of Trade gasp as Shieldbiter flings his wings wide.
DESTROYERBILL: thanks
Smon: "The wings! The Dragonborn comes!"
DESTROYERBILL: yeah
chris107: yeah!
Smon: Bill roll 2d4 for the number of Dragonborn you have in Trade.
DESTROYERBILL rolls 2d4 and gets: 4, 4, = 8
chris107:
DESTROYERBILL: yeah
Smon: The peasants start singing "The Dragonborn Comes", apparently a traditional ballad...
Sandor Sunneson: llol
DESTROYERBILL: hello my pepole
chris107: "They make songs about you Prince Shieldbiter. You are blessed indeed."
Smon: The leader of Sh's Dragonborn is a big fellow called Steelclaw Delmirev.
Smon: He hurries up, glaive in hand.
Smon: "By Bahamut!"
DESTROYERBILL: hello steelclaw
Smon: He kneels, as do the other 7, bowing their heads at this vision of the King of Dragons.
chris107:
DESTROYERBILL: rise
chris107:
DESTROYERBILL: you really dont need to bow
Smon: Sunlight shines on Shieldbiter's golden scales so that he glows with angelic radiance as he bids his warriors arise.
Smon: They do so.
Sandor Sunneson: A nice town you have hear
DESTROYERBILL: thanks
Smon: A couple of human maids hurry up, bringing Shieldbiter oranges and lemonade.
chris107: (OOC was stating up a Dragonborn Warlock earlier. Called Shadowscale, black dragon heriatage)
DESTROYERBILL: yum
Smon: The Dragonborn warriors get to their feet.
Smon: Steelclaw: "Lord Shieldbiter, while you were gone we received word from your father. All is well in the South. Your sister is to wed."
DESTROYERBILL: ill go to the weding then
Smon: He hands Shieldbiter a note - the wedding will be on 14/6, a bit under 5 months.
DESTROYERBILL: okay
DESTROYERBILL: ill go in a bit under 5 momths then
DESTROYERBILL: ill leave on the 12/6
chris107: "Iremember your sister well Shieldbiter. She fought with us against Yusan?"
DESTROYERBILL: yeah
Smon: The guards and maids escort you into the Hall of Trade, where the slaves/servants Shieldbiter inherited from Lord Tarcon help you wash the travel dirt from your bodies and bring you all manner of comforts.
chris107: Nice
chris107: (except the slaves bit )
DESTROYERBILL: thank you my frends
Smon: In a day or so you'll be renewed and ready for new adventures...
chris107: Excellent!
chris107: Thanks for all the extra games Simon
Sandor Sunneson: well done all
Smon: Feasting that night, Steelclaw explains to Hakeem that Lord Shieldbiter believes that slavery as an institution will eventually wither, but its abolishment requires a sound economic basis.
