[20:26] <@ GWRD> Last we met, the group explored the area around the back of the children's housing where a well rested. Upon investigation, they found the water less that usable without care…
[20:27] <@ GWRD> Around the same time, the cries of small children could be heard approaching through the allies. Rightfully scared for their lives, the group made refuge in one of the abandoned buildings and barricaded themselves in. The children, barely older than toddlers tried to get the heroes to let them in, but they refused.
[20:28] <@ GWRD> Taking advantage of their security, they rested for the night, recovering slightly from their wounds, and had planned on making for the temple at first light.
[20:28] <@ GWRD> As our session begins.
[20:31] <@ GWRD> Outside a few birds chirp, as a few rays of light creep through any cracks in the walls they can find.
[20:31] * Garun_Degiron stretches and tries to shake the sleep from his eyes
[20:32] * @Tindai_Edo dons his armor, and checks his equipment over
[20:32] <@ GWRD> (Technically I believe you are a little ahead of this point, because you stepped outside and met up with Animal)
[20:32] * Dragoon_Kevoyan snorts once, sits up and checks his musket
[20:32] <@ GWRD> (But eh… it's been two weeks)
[20:33] <Garun_Degiron> (well technically not awake until the second cup of coffee)
[20:34] <Garun_Degiron> (so was the plan to recoup and then burn this whole place to the ground?)
[20:35] <@Tindai_Edo> “To the temple then.”
[20:35] <@ GWRD> (It could become the plan)
[20:35] <@ GWRD> Animal awaits outside with her wagon, stepping on a few stray white grubs for good measure.
[20:37] * @Tindai_Edo keeps his hands on his blades as he walks towards the temple
[20:37] * Dragoon_Kevoyan readies his bayonet and moves out.
[20:38] <Garun_Degiron> (ok i would like to adrees the “animal” but i have a real problem just coming up to someone and sayin :Hey Animal!)
[20:38] <@ GWRD> You pass by a number of buildings and abandoned shops as you approach the temple. From this side of the inner walls you can make out the top of the temple past a pair of heavy wooden doors that separate the outer section from the inner section.
[20:39] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (no one manning any defensive posts?)
[20:39] * @Tindai_Edo attempts to open said doors
[20:39] * Garun_Degiron walks up to Animal and says “ This place seems to be dangerous, we should not be wandering alone and separating the group”
[20:41] <@ GWRD> (No)
[20:41] <@ GWRD> The doors do not budge, however you do hear sounds from the other side that resemble shoveling.
[20:42] <@Tindai_Edo> “Hey!” he pounds on the gate
[20:42] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Ho! Worker!”
[20:44] <@ GWRD> Voice: “What the… must be losing it, thought I heard voices.”
[20:44] <@Tindai_Edo> “Open the damned gate!”
[20:44] <@Ptolamir> “what?”
[20:44] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Worker! Open the gates!”
[20:44] <@ GWRD> “I did hear voices… WHO'S THERE?”
[20:45] <@Tindai_Edo> “Tindai Edo, former Samurai of the Xenui Empire!”
[20:45] * @Tindai_Edo he thinks for a moment, “and Company!”
[20:46] * Garun_Degiron grunts
[20:47] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Dragoon Kevoyan, of the Lord's 5th Company!”
[20:47] <@ GWRD> “A small slide away visor in the door opens, and a sweaty face looks through it at the group of you.
[20:47] <@ GWRD> Sweaty Man: “What do you want, and who sent you?”
[20:48] <@Tindai_Edo> “Some crazy old man at a camp fire sent us… we're here to help”
[20:48] <@ GWRD> His brow raises in surprise.
[20:49] <@ GWRD> His eyes dart back and forth between the lot of you.
[20:50] <@ GWRD> Sweaty man: “Let me get the abbot, stay here, and stay alive.”
[20:50] * @Tindai_Edo turns his back to the gate and starts scanning the area
[20:50] <@Tindai_Edo> 1d20+2 perception
[20:50] <TolBot> Tindai_Edo's 1d20(7)+2 'perception']: 9
[20:50] <@Tindai_Edo> (Hey! I found a rock!)
[20:51] <@ GWRD> The path from wence you came seems clear, except for some horse poo left by one of Animal's steeds.
[20:51] * Dragoon_Kevoyan sighs and starts looking around for spots to set up a firing position
[20:52] <@ GWRD> The door visor slides shut and you wait for a good 10 minutes before it reopens.
[20:52] * @Tindai_Edo whistles to call Rhykir to his side to make sure his mount is safe
[20:54] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Who are you folks, and why are you here?”
[20:54] <@Tindai_Edo> “As we told your companion, we are here to help. . . We should ask whats going on here.”
[20:56] <@ GWRD> Abbot: “And he said an old man sent you here?”
[20:56] * @Ptolamir looks behind himself, mumbling, “Stay alive?”
[20:56] <@Tindai_Edo> “Yes, around some campfire, gave us three choices of destinations. . . and alas we're here first…“
[20:58] * @Ptolamir scratches his head.
[20:58] <@ GWRD> “So the gates are open again, and people are being pulled in once more.”
[20:58] <@ GWRD> He turns and tells somebody not in sight to open the gates.
[20:59] <Garun_Degiron> “You seem to know more than we!”
[20:59] <@Tindai_Edo> “No idea what you're talking about, care to fill us in?”
[20:59] * Dragoon_Kevoyan gathers up his things, keeping an eye on the trail.
[21:01] <@ GWRD> The gates begin to open, as Kevoyan spies a small flock of birds landing on a nearby building all apparently watching what transpires.
[21:01] * Dragoon_Kevoyan eyes the flock warily.
[21:01] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “I think we have eyes upon us, lads.”
[21:02] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (brb)
[21:02] <@ GWRD> Abbot: “Quickly, quickly, inside.”
[21:03] * @Tindai_Edo moves in, keeping Rhykir by his side
[21:03] * Garun_Degiron moves in looking bahind him to see if anything out there spooked the Abbot
[21:05] * Dragoon_Kevoyan shoos in everyone else before coming in himself.
[21:07] <@ GWRD> Beyond the gates is a emaculately kept landscape surrounding a large stone building apparently sculpted of singular slabs of smooth stone. To the right of the gates, is a fair sized cemetary with a fresh grave in the process of being created.
[21:07] * Dragoon_Kevoyan whispers a prayer for the dead
[21:07] <@Tindai_Edo> “Theres children, sane, held up in a house out there. . .”
[21:09] <@ GWRD> A very rotund man with greasy slick hair, the abbot, greets you as you enter. Two other men, nearly as fat, watch you carefully in splint mail that almost busts at the seams, with maces at the ready. The ditch digger, a man with a pot belly and sweaty tunic, stares at you in awe, his shovel at his side.
[21:10] <@ GWRD> They quicky shut the gate behind you as Animal pulls her wagon into the temple. Several of them look at it with surprise.
[21:11] <Garun_Degiron> (didnt one of the kids say something how those guys keep all the food for themselves?)
[21:11] * Dragoon_Kevoyan looks at their armor and weapons, quietly gauging them.
[21:11] <@ GWRD> (Yes they did)
[21:12] * Garun_Degiron looks at the freshly dug grave “Who is that for?”
[21:12] <@ GWRD> The 2 guards look capable, though probably a bit slow of movement. The maces look fairly cared for, not exceptional, but more than effective to break bones.
[21:12] * @Tindai_Edo eyes the residents. “So, whats the problem here.”
[21:12] <@ GWRD> Sweaty Gravekeeper:“The plants got another one of us last night.
[21:13] <@Tindai_Edo> “I'm talking about all the death outside of these gates, and the starving children locked outside of it.”
[21:14] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Looks like you're not missing any meals.”
[21:14] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“It's for our safety. We had to barricade ourselves in, in order to survive, and attempts to take the outer courtyard has failed thus far.”
[21:15] <Garun_Degiron> “What about the rest of the village?”
[21:15] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Are you threatened by the children?”
[21:16] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“The undead ones that wear the skin of the living, yes.” He motions towards the cemetary. “They took about a half dozen, before we realized what they were.”
[21:17] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Wait…what?”
[21:17] <@Tindai_Edo> “I'm not talking about the undead, I'm talkinga bout the scared children that barricaded themselves in a house. . .” he looks at Dragoon, “If you will permit it, I would more than happily go retreive them.”
[21:18] <Garun_Degiron> (i am getting a “cannibally” wibe here for some reason)
[21:19] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“I can't allow that, unless you can assure they are not undead posing as children, or agents of the druid that has also plagued us.”
[21:20] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Go for it.”
[21:20] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Wait…druid? You mean a woodsman.”
[21:21] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“There is much we should discuss, and we were preparing for morning meal, perhaps you would care to join us and we can discuss matters at greater length?”
[21:22] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Good idea.”
[21:23] * Dragoon_Kevoyan looks back to the gate to make sure it's still closed.
[21:24] <@ GWRD> The gate looks securely closed, though a solitary song bird sits on top of it watching you all.
[21:24] <Garun_Degiron> “We met a group of children that barricated themselves in a house and then we met two other children sculking around looking very strange”
[21:24] * Dragoon_Kevoyan levels his musket at the bird as if to shoot.
[21:25] <@Ptolamir> ‘Yes, good idea. I seek much to know about this place.”
[21:25] <@ GWRD> The bird pays Kevoyan no mind, though the Abbot notices Kevoyan.
[21:25] <Garun_Degiron> (does this abbot and his guards seem strange at all?)
[21:26] <@ GWRD> Abbot”What are you doing with your strange staff?”
[21:26] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “seeing if that bird's master would flinch.”
[21:26] <@ GWRD> (Other than very fat, and somewhat nervous, not really. If you want you may roll sense motive)
[21:27] <Garun_Degiron> 1d20+9 sense motives
[21:27] <TolBot> Garun_Degiron's 1d20(11)+9 'sense motives']: 20
[21:27] * @Tindai_Edo ponders for a moment, “What Diety is worshipped at this Temple?”
[21:27] <Garun_Degiron> (yeah being under siege by undead and a druid and being fat doesnt really mesh for me)
[21:28] <@ GWRD> (Garun, you get the added impression they are being VERY CAUTIOUS with you, and don't quite trust you, and don't want to bring those kids in)
[21:29] <@ GWRD> Abbot“We worship several, as many cultures get trapped in these lands.”
[21:29] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (to quote Fiona from “Burn Notice”: “Should we shoot them?”)
[21:30] <Garun_Degiron> “Those blasted maggots claimed one of us already and almost killed me too”
[21:31] <@ GWRD> Abbot “Maggots?”
[21:32] <Garun_Degiron> “Yeah we were attacked out there near the stable!”
[21:32] <@Tindai_Edo> “What brought forth the undead here?”
[21:32] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “as in 'small worm' or as in 'undesirable person'?”
[21:33] <@ GWRD> Abbot “Come, I'll answer your questions and more in the dining hall.”
[21:33] <@ GWRD> He starts to head towards the temple, pausing to instruct the gravekeeper to show the halfling where she can tend to her wagon and steeds.
[21:34] * @Tindai_Edo goes with the halfing to stable Rhykir as well
[21:34] * Dragoon_Kevoyan follows the others.
[21:35] <@ GWRD> Gravekeeper:“I can tend to your horse sir.”
[21:36] <@ GWRD> He says to Tindai
[21:36] * Shad`afk is now known as Animal
[21:36] <+Animal> “I'll stay with the animals.”
[21:36] * @Tindai_Edo gives Rhykir a pat, and looks to Animal, “Would to mind watching over Rhykir as well then friend?”
[21:36] <+Animal> “Not at all”
[21:37] <@Tindai_Edo> “Thank you.”
[21:38] * Garun_Degiron follows the Abbot inside
[21:38] <@ GWRD> The animals are quickly taken to a small stable, with 1 old mule in a 4 stall stable. The accomodations are not nearly as large as the stables at the entrance to the temple, but it surfices. Animal and Tindai are lead back to the temple after their animals are tended for.
[21:39] <+Animal> (animal is staying with the animals, she doesn't trust the fat bastards with her cart)
[21:39] <@ GWRD> (Ok)
[21:42] <@Tindai_Edo> (brb, nature calls)
[21:43] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (brb – Tindai's nature is getting forwarded to my phone)
[21:43] <@ GWRD> Inside the temple, a large feasting table has been placed in the center of this room, full of fruits and fresh breads. A bust of an attractive woman sits on a small stand at the back end of the room with a small collection of fruit and bread as offerings around her. Aside from that, 4 heavy wooden doors lead to other parts of the temple.
[21:44] * @Ptolamir looks around inside the temple.
[21:46] * Dragoon_Kevoyan looks for ambush positions.
[21:47] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Please sit.” He motions to empty chairs, that other members of the clergy have not yet taken.
[21:47] <@ GWRD> The room lacks much in the way of ambush positions, save for whatever lies on the other side of the wooden doors.
[21:47] <Garun_Degiron> (How many people are here)
[21:48] * @Ptolamir takes a seat, “Thank you“
[21:49] * +Animal will keep her battle axe down, but at the ready as she tends her animals, and tindai's while keeping an eye on her wagon at all times.
[21:50] <@ GWRD> (At the moment, the Abbot, one of the guards who was at the gate (the other stayed with Animal), and 3 others who are unarmed (2 men, 1 woman))
[21:50] * Dragoon_Kevoyan sits facing the door, with his musket resting against the door.
[21:50] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (chair, musket resting against the chair)
[21:50] * @Tindai_Edo takes a seat, making sure his blades remainly within reach
[21:51] <@ GWRD> One of the men offers you all some plump grapes and fat strawberries from a silver platter.
[21:51] <@ GWRD> Abbot: “I am certain you have many questions, hopefully I can help answer some, if not all of them.”
[21:52] * Garun_Degiron ignores the fruit being more interested in what the Abbot has to say
[21:52] <@Tindai_Edo> “First and foremost.. What are these 'Gates' you spoke of”
[21:54] * Dragoon_Kevoyan takes a grape and a strawberry…sniffing them first.
[21:54] <@ GWRD> Both pass the “sniff” test
[21:54] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“You mean how you came here to this land?”
[21:55] <@Tindai_Edo> “Indeed.”
[21:58] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“I am surprised you did not learn more before you chose to come to the temple. A dark entity pulls those it thinks is worthy to this pocket dimension every 100 years or so when some nonsense or another aligns, weakens, or comes in contact with something else.
[21:58] * Dragoon_Kevoyan pops the grape in his mouth
[21:58] <@ GWRD> He reaches for some fruit, stuffing it in his mouth as he speaks.
[21:58] * @Ptolamir eats a starwberry
[21:59] <@ GWRD> The fruit is delicious, and quite possibly close to the best fruit you have ever tasted. It's no surprise the residents here are so portly if all the food is like this.
[22:00] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Why are you not giving this fruit to the children?”
[22:00] <@ GWRD> “Because they are dangerous.”
[22:01] <Garun_Degiron> “How long has this been going on?”
[22:01] <@ GWRD> He ponders this question.
[22:02] <@ GWRD> “Quite a while we have been at war with the druid.”
[22:03] <@ GWRD> Abbot: And longer still have we all been trapped here. I think this has been going on for some 800 or more years.
[22:03] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “A while.”
[22:06] <Garun_Degiron> “is there anyone here who can help with healing, our last fight left me barely alive”
[22:06] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Certainly depending on the nature of your wounds.”
[22:07] * @Ptolamir smiles enjoying the fruit
[22:07] * Dragoon_Kevoyan eats the strawberry
[22:07] <@ GWRD> (What do you have for wounds?)
[22:08] <Garun_Degiron> (Constitution is down in the cellar)
[22:08] <+Animal> (a con mod that looks like shit :P)
[22:08] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (Chew marks, loss of appetite)
[22:08] <@ GWRD> (Visible wounds?)
[22:09] <Garun_Degiron> (well whatever thos grubbs left on my skin and the burns and such)
[22:11] <@ GWRD> The abbot motions to the priestess to examine your injuries. And she entones some strange words while pressing her finger into one of the tender spots.
[22:11] <@Tindai_Edo> “Why are you at war with the Druid?”
[22:11] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “What is a druid? Do you mean a woodsman?”
[22:11] <@ GWRD> 2d8+10
[22:11] <TolBot> GWRD's 2d8(13)+10]: 23
[22:11] <@ GWRD> (+23 hps)
[22:12] * Garun_Degiron thanks the Priestess
[22:12] * @Tindai_Edo looks at the Priestess, (is she cute?) “If you don't mind Ma'am, one of those plants got ahold of me earlier.”
[22:13] <@ GWRD> Abbot:He looks at Kevoyan oddly for a brief moment.”Yes, a woodsman capable of manipulating nature into attacking us.
[22:13] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Yes – a woodsman.”
[22:14] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “How hard is that to say?”
[22:14] <@ GWRD> The priestess is definitely above average, and has mostly kept her figure intact, despite all the food available.
[22:15] <Garun_Degiron> (so an 8/10)
[22:16] <@Ptolamir> (oh brother)
[22:16] <@Tindai_Edo> (Heeelllllooooo Priestess!)
[22:16] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (I can safely say I've been thrown out of every building)
[22:17] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Your culture is a curious one. We use the term druid for people who get their magic from nature. We use the term woodsman for somebody who lives off the land and cuts trees.”
[22:17] * @Ptolamir looks at the Abbot, “How could we have learned more about the temple, seeing as how we just got sucked into this dimension by the Entity? I’m just looking for the quickeest way out.”
[22:17] <@ GWRD> (Probably more like a 7/10)
[22:17] <+Animal> (stil higher than what his ugly mug can achieve.)
[22:17] <Garun_Degiron> (so did that heal do anything about my con wounds?)
[22:18] <@ GWRD> (Not the con wounds)
[22:18] <@ GWRD> (Who else was asking about healing though?)
[22:18] <@Tindai_Edo> (I did)
[22:19] <@ GWRD> The priestess comes over to Tindai and examines his injuries, before pressing down on a tender spot a little too hard.
[22:19] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “We call people who *that* rangers…or those who work for the enemy 'concealed targets'.”
[22:19] <@ GWRD> 2d8+10
[22:19] <TolBot> GWRD's 2d8(9)+10]: 19
[22:19] * Garun_Degiron takes a piece of the fruit and munches on it deep in thought
[22:20] <@Tindai_Edo> “Thank you my fair lady.”
[22:20] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“As for escaping from this place, we have yet to figure that out, and have decided to fortify ourselves here until such a time as a path is made clear.”
[22:20] <@Ptolamir> “Were you brought here by the Entity as well?“
[22:21] <@ GWRD> Abbot:”“What you see here are the decendents of those who came before us.”
[22:21] * @Tindai_Edo he looks at the Abbot, “So why have you been at war with this Druid?”
[22:23] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“He seeks to erradicate our way of life for errecting this temple here. He believes we have defiled his forest and must die for it. We have tried reasoning with him, but his wrath can not be overcome.”
[22:24] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “So…have you tried killing him?”
[22:24] <@Tindai_Edo> “And, where does these beings of undeath come from?”
[22:26] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“We have tried to, but it is difficult to kill an enemy when they have the advantage of terrain.”
[22:26] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“The undead creatures might also come from him.”
[22:27] <@Tindai_Edo> “I have never known a Druid to raise the dead, the act would be against nature itself.”
[22:28] <@ GWRD> (Sense motive?)
[22:28] <@ GWRD> (And / or Knowledge: Nature)
[22:28] <Garun_Degiron> (can who is listening anyone roll?)
[22:28] <@Tindai_Edo> 1d20 (sense movtive)
[22:28] <@ GWRD> (Sure)
[22:28] <TolBot> Tindai_Edo's 1d20(3) '(sense movtive)']: 3
[22:28] <Garun_Degiron> 1d20+9 Sense motive
[22:28] <TolBot> Garun_Degiron's 1d20(17)+9 'Sense motive']: 26
[22:29] <@ GWRD> (Garun, you believe he might know more about the undeath subject he is not comfortable explaining)
[22:31] * Garun_Degiron looks at the Abbot “We might be able to help but we would need all the information you can provide”
[22:31] <@Tindai_Edo> “Indeed, the more information we have the more of a help that we can be.” (Diplomacy?)
[22:32] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“I have told you what I can. If you can help us against the druid, we can help you in kind with healing and other services in exchange.”
[22:32] <@ GWRD> (Not in this case)
[22:32] <+Animal> (that just sounds kinky lol)
[22:33] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (“Oooh…priestess…I have this *itch*…”)
[22:33] <@Tindai_Edo> (… I've corrupted you… )
[22:33] <+Animal> (that's what you think)
[22:33] <@ GWRD> ()
[22:35] * Retrieving #grovewood modes…
[22:36] * @Tindai_Edo looks to the others, “I beleive the undeath is a more pressing matter than the Druid right now, what do you think?”
[22:36] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “I say kill them all and let teh gods claim their own.”
[22:38] <@Tindai_Edo> “Or, we could go talk to this druid. . .”
[22:39] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Then kill him.”
[22:39] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“The druid would likely attempt to kill you on sight.”
[22:40] <@Tindai_Edo> “Maybe, maybe not, perhaps we can be a bit more diplomatic.”
[22:41] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “I say we kill him first, then.”
[22:41] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“I doubt that, the man has more or less degenerated into a ravenous rage beast.”
[22:42] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “All the more reason to kill him.”
[22:42] <@Tindai_Edo> “if it comes down to it, he dies, problem solved, save for that of the undeath.”
[22:43] <Garun_Degiron> (is this guy buttering our toast , he wants us to kill without trying to ask questions?)
[22:43] <@ GWRD> (He's been answering your questions, but he does seem interested in buttering your toast)
[22:44] <Garun_Degiron> (hubba hubba)
[22:44] <+Animal> (i think it's trying to figure out how much fat you need to gain before he shove's you in his ovens)
[22:44] <+Animal> (it's=he's)
[22:45] <@ GWRD> (There is no sign of meat on the tables.)
[22:45] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> (Because I'm wearing pants)
[22:46] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Do you eat meat, abbot?”
[22:46] * Dragoon_Kevoyan nods at teh pauch.
[22:46] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “It would take a lot of fruit to get that big.”
[22:47] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“It is rare that we have fresh meat available, particularly so since we've been forced to barricade ourselves in this part of the temple.”
[22:47] <@Tindai_Edo> “I say, we rest here for the day to recover our strength, then seek out this Druid come daylight.”
[22:47] <@ GWRD> (Note: It's still morning)
[22:48] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Excellent. I shall have rooms prepared for you.”
[22:48] <@Tindai_Edo> (indeed, but a day of rest and information gathering sounds like a good idea to me)
[22:48] <@Tindai_Edo> “I'm assuming you have a library of this temples history?”
[22:50] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“I'm sorry, but you would not be permitted past this section of the temple during your stay. The guest house will be prepared for you, and you will be welcome to join us for meals here.”
[22:51] <@Tindai_Edo> “Then could the necassary books be brought to us. I would like to know more about this place, and this war with the Druid. I was taught, the easiest path to victory is to know your enemy.”
[22:51] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Thank you. Where can we find more information for this 'druid'?”
[22:52] <@Tindai_Edo> “Strategies that have been tried as well, would be very helpful to know.”
[22:53] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Our written history is limited, as paper is not in ready supply. We can discuss those matters in person.”
[22:54] <@Ptolamir> “hmm“
[22:55] <@ GWRD> Abbot:“Asandra, if you would show our guests to the guest house, I'm sure they would like rest from their long journey.
[22:55] <@ GWRD> The priestess who has been tending your wounds nods and rises from her place at the table.
[22:56] * @Tindai_Edo grabs a piece of fruit as he stands.
[22:57] <@ GWRD> Asandra: “This way.”
[22:58] * Dragoon_Kevoyan grabs a handful of graps, strawberries and an apple
[22:58] * Garun_Degiron does the same and follows
[22:58] * +Animal will have fed the animals and brushed them down.
[22:58] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> Brb)
[22:58] <@ GWRD> She leads you towards the entrance and to the right out the entrance towards the side of the temple.
[22:59] <@Tindai_Edo> “Priestess, I must ask. How long have you served this temple?”
[23:00] <@ GWRD> Asandra: “Long enough.” You notice as she walks that the bottom of her grey robes are tattered, though the upper portion is mostly intact, save for a few fruit stains.
[23:02] <@ GWRD> The side of the temple contains a sand filled training area, lined with smooth stones, with several training dummies in the center. Opposite the training grounds, is a simple building, inspired by Tien (asian) design, that looks like it could house 8 guests comfortably.
[23:02] <@Tindai_Edo> “Looks like my people have been here before.”
[23:03] <@ GWRD> Asandra: “During your stay, you will be permitted to use the training grounds, visit the main feasting hall for meals, and use the guest house. Any other part of the temple is off-limits.”
[23:03] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Why?”
[23:03] <@ GWRD> Asandra: “Because it's off-limits.”
[23:06] <@ GWRD> She leaves you to the guest house, which contains a small center gathering place and four doors, two to each side that contain bedding for 2 people each.
[23:07] <Dragoon_Kevoyan> “Sounds good enough for me.”
[23:08] <@ GWRD> As the group receives their new guest quarters, new revelations are revealed, and new questions emerge… as this session comes to a close.
