At the beginning of this year, I decided to start up a Let's Play of this old fantastic game by Dynamix called 'Betrayal at Krondor'. Unfortunately, circumstances beyond my control in late April and early May of 2013 (such as computer meltdowns and family medical emergencies) meant that I had to put the LP on hold for for some time. The first thread has therefore fallen into the abyss of the archives.    I'm back and ready to go. Let's do this thing!

Technically Update 17: Rebooting  That's where we left off. Mostly. The difference is that the pirates were alive before and about to attack us. Guess I played out the combat and subsequently lost the screenshots. Despite the fact that we are told that they looked quite insane, we don't know what at this moment was the problem with them. We'll go into the temple next to them in just a minute, but for the benefit of everybody rejoining here, a slight recap of what has happened thus far. Recap posted:It was some time ago, that Locklear had encountered Gorath, a Moredhel from the North who had information to convey to the Kingdom. Taking Gorath prisoner, Locklear intends to bring him south to Krondor to meet with Prince Arutha. Unfortunately, they are waylaid by Moredhel assassins on the way. At one such stop, they run into a young man named Owyn, who has some limited talent with magic. Owyn bandages Locklear up. Shortly thereafter Gorath straight up murders another assassin who entered into their camp, and Locklear shanghais Owyn into coming with them.  "That's more or less what happened." Rest of Conversation posted:... someday. Our place is in service to both the earth mother and those who worship her. Remember." "It's been five minutes, let's bother the high priestess again." "Well shucks. Guess we might as well go look for the Collector then."Next time: We find The Collector! Snugglecakes fucked around with this message at 17:51 on Apr 20, 2015 |

Delaying action for the moment, they exited Krondor and begin to explore a bit north, eventually hitting the village of Eggley. Only this was no ordinary city, it had been abandoned by its inhabitants, apparently due to an interruption (murder!) in some strange ritual to their Goddess for the harvest. They've refused to come back to the city. Putting it upon themselves to look into this matter, our brave heroes wandered north only to run into some insane pirates outside of the temple of said Goddess.
