 Satyavati "How many Gnolls are there that need to take the entirety of a country's army to deal with?" Satyavati shrugs as she covers her face with her hand. "Lady Bryn, as much as I admire Tanna's fighting arts, can't those dogs be dealt with just one squadron? And there might be the need of diplomacy in order to convince both countries to help, yes. But as someone who have tried to ask for help for an year... I can say that this is not really going to work." The Elven queen lets out a long sigh. "Were I more desperate, I'd dress whatever still followers I had as Andamanian troops and have them burn villages of both countries. Perhaps only with such a provocation that a war could be..." She stops for a bit, deep in thought. "Or what if the daughters of the rulers of both countries made the kind of diplomatic insults that would make Varna declare war on the spot?" She says while looking at Bryn and Mirabelle with a devious look on her face.

 Bryn "Well that ain't gonna work on account of my natural charm," Bryn said. "Sorry babe, I can't help it if everybody loves me. Mirabelle's a natural at bein' unlikeable though, so you're halfway there at least." She then turned her attention back to the Queen. "So hey, are we sure there aren't any, like, super-powerful army-destroying artifacts kickin' around somewhere unattended? Like a horn you blow on an' it summons the legions of the dead to do your bidding, or an axe that ends the world when you swing it or something? 'Cause that'd be pretty awesome, probably solve all your problems too."

 Mirabelle de Pasade"Wait. I did see something earlier in the parade. An eladrin and Lafarean talking to each other. They wanted me to see them. And..." Mirabelle lapses into silence for a moment. "I vote we go to Lafarea. Something may be happening there, and we should try to gain my country's support first, if Bryn is so sure her country is hopeless. At the very least, Lafarean magic can take us to Tanna and may be the edge needed to remove the gnolls. We will not require Varna to personally declare war, and no militant noble house is stupid enough to think Varna will never cast his eyes over Lafarean land that used to belong to the eladrin. It is merely a point to convince them the time to act is now, not later. And Bryn, on the way, tell me about these...demons. If there is an abyssal cause, then that happens to be something I can very purposefully help with."

"Bunch of 'I don't have to live next to an endless horde of demon-loving dog-cats' or whatever the hell gnolls are supposed to be.

The Queen lets out a little cough, an amused smirk on her face. "Thank you. I will send a missive to Varna in an attempt to begin negotiations; I only hope that I can stop his advances until you return." With some help from Mirabelle, Celestine charts a course for you to the southern country of Lafarea which would take you through the ruined lands of Almora and across (or rather, through) the Carinian Mountains. She also grants you 1008 gold (168 if you want to split it) from her coffers to prepare for the journey. If you have any last minute stuff you want to do in town before departing, now would be the best time to do it! Feel free to roleplay going to shops or whatever

Bryn "Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine," Bryn said in the tone of someone being forced to eat something they didn't particularly care for. "Let's all go to the place Mirabelle came from, I'm sure that'll be super fuckin' fun and not annoying at all. Wood-ear's right, though," she said to the Queen matter-of-factly. "Don't go gettin' yourself all stabbed up again, a'ight? 'Course, if you do wanna make a play for Varna while you got his guard down, don't forget to lead off with some sand in the eyes or somethin'," she said slyly. "They can't do all that teleporting bullshit if they can't see. Just a little pro tip," she said, winking and slapping Celestine on the shoulder. That done she hefted her axe and nodded to the others. "I'm'a go get drunk so I can try an' pretend like this whole plan is a good idea. Plus I gotta say goodbye to Alexandra, she's gonna be pretty upset that we're leaving an' all. Oh and I guess we oughta buy some supplies an' poo poo too. Since we're rollin' in gold how 'bout we spring for the rations that don't taste like rear end this time?"

Mirabelle de Pasade "I have but one suggestion: let me do the talking. If need be we may need to count some of you as my entourage in order to gain full access to all corts; apologies, Adrian, Genevieve, but you are not of noble blood, and Edouard, you are not of recognized noble blood. And do not worry, Bryn, I'm sure at least one noble family will take offense to something you will inevitably do and demand satisfaction, at which point we can arrange a dual to keep you busy. Oh, and Adrian, fey pacts were so out of season when I left, and they may still be, so don't flaunt it."

Better change his actual story though, strump it up, make him some kind of champion of man who took his pact through victory rather then some poor peasant who got tricked into it.

Mirabelle de Pasade The eladrin gets an almost musical laugh from Mirabelle in response. "Oh, dear. Listen. History is littered with fools who simply took bargins with otherworldly entities. Anyone can do that. We are merchant princes. Did I not already say that Lafareans always bargin from a position of power?" The dark skinned girl gives a predatory grin. "Anyone can simply indebt themselves for a copper coin's worth of magic. We demand only fair agreements. Magic and loyalty both are coins like any other. The pact givers pay in certain currencies, and we in turn repay in further investments as rightfully agreed contracts see fit. And we are very good at ensuring those contracts are written properly."

The following morning, you congregate at the city gates; the queen sends one of her servants to see you off, and he hands you a map with what her advisors have decided to be the quickest, safest (relatively) routes to your destination. It takes you about a week to reach the border of Almora, and the trip is pleasant enough; you fought off a few highwaymen and a band of goblins along the way, nothing too tough. The edge of Almora is immediately apparent, as the soft green grass of the Lenuan Plains comes to an abrupt halt and gives way to dry, crackled ground. After a few hours' travel, you're really wishing you'd dressed lighter; the sun beats down on you relentlessly. Eventually, you see some figures off in the distance, a cloud of dust trailing behind them.

Satyavati Satyavati endures the desert heat silently, although the encounters with brigands annoyed her quite a bit during the trip. "Hmph. More of them?" She says while holding tightly to her mount's saddle, squinting her eyes to the distance and trying to make sense of the figures. "drat armor is so hot... Still, might be useful that I brought it."

Bryn Bryn endured the desert heat as she did most any hardship...gracelessly, with a steady stream of profanity, grumbling, and complaining along the way. One thing that Tanna wasn't especially well known for was warmer weather, and while Leuna had been pleasant enough as far as she was concerned in Varna wanted Almora then he was welcome to it. "Ugh...gently caress it, whatever," she said, slumping forward in her saddle, sweat rolling down her neck, not even the prospect of violence managing to excite her. Somehow this was all Mirabelle's fault. She wasn't entirely sure how just yet, but she resolved to blame the other woman regardless. "Maybe we can kill'em an' use their bodies for shade or somethin'."

Edouard: "I know, this heat is stifling. We have been walking for only a few days but it feels like it has been a month since anything has happened." Edouard peers at the approaching cloud. "I suppose it would be too much to expect that to be a welcoming party for a party of foreign emissaries."

Adrian "Don't worry, oh glorious leader," Adrian chuckles darkly, "whoever they are, I'm sure they'll have some water on them." He keeps his hood up - it's warm, but at least it saves his head from being straight under that blistering sun. This trip had been entirely too boring, with entirely too little alcohol - although they'd gotten some of Alexandra's stock before they left, drinking in this weather was a recipe for disaster. So they were stuck with water until they could find some place to stay; and for Adrian, that couldn't come soon enough.

Genevieve Is that two Endurance rolls per character per round, or two for the entire party per round? "Oh Eddie, your rapier wit makes ze travel bearable!" Gene looks over to him and smiles radiantly, matching Mirabelle in beating the heat and maintaining an upbeat attitude! What a joke! Gene always dresses lightly for she knows the value of plain beauty... and the difficulty of engaging in high society trends without a continual source of wild riches. She does make the occasional blip when she has a windfall, but a continuous effort... ah well. Traveling in this sort of climate or without any creature comforts can only come naturally with her upbringing so she has come dressed as the simple and practical traveler. With some extra cloth she is fully-covered to evade the cruelty of the sun but she is also stylish and stealthy with a face-wrap scarf. Oh, some saucy boys want to test her on that. Gene drops into a roll off her mount, dashes to D12 and finds the cover of the petrified tree just right(Stealth 31). She takes up a dagger and casually casts it out towards a Raider! The blade almost looks like it may falter... before it catches a bit of that dust-cloud desert wind and flips about into the Raider's eye! This deals 21 Damage and Slows Raider 1 UEONT(Gene.) Did I mention that Gene does not mind the heat at all? (Endurance 25 and 28!) Move to D12 Stealth 31 Unbalancing Shot vs Raider 1 Hits for 21 Damage and Slows UEONT Endurnace 25 and 28 pre:Genevieve Beauchene HP: 47/47 (THP: ) AC: 21 Passive Insight: 15 Surges: 6/6 (V: 12) For: 15 Passive Perception: 13 Initiative: +12 Ref: 22 Action Points: 1/1 Vision: Low-light Will: 17 Speed: 6 Stealth: +16, No Penalty for Movement Beyond 2 Squares, -5 When Running May Stealth after Moving 3 Squares with Cover At Will Encounter Daily Acrobatic Strike [ ] Fey Step OR Fey Duelist [ ] Bloodbath Deft Strike [ ] Vicious Assault [ ] Blinding Barrage [X] Unbalancing Shot [ ] Duelist's Dagger [ ] Fleeting Spirit Strike [ ] Spider Climb [ ] Master of Deceit [ ] Widow's Veil [ ] Gloam Armor [ ] Rapid Motion Daily [ ] Shimmering Athame [ ] Shroud Teleport [ ] Perfect Feint [ ] Rapid Motion Interrupt [ ] Luckbender [ ] Shroud Mark Dagger Dex/Thrown: +14(+16 against CA), 1d4+6+3 Radiant (+1 against CA) Sneak Attack: +2d8 Shuriken Thrown: +12, 1d6+5 Conditionals/Resists: Eladrin Will: +5 Save against Charms First Strike: Combat Advantage against anyone lower in Initiative in the First Turn/Surprise Round Cunning Sneak: Stealth Enhancements Weapon Talent: +1 Attack with Daggers, Shuriken are 1d6 Sneak Attack: Once per Round against CA opponent deal additional 2d8 Damage Master of Deceit: Once per Encounter free reroll of Bluff Swift Footwork: Shifts granted by Encounters/Dailies are up to 2 squares longer Reaver Level 5: +1 to melee UEONT after reducing non-minion to less than 1 HP

Edouard: "Oh, they are raiders," Edouard says flatly. "Not a welcoming party at all." Edouard moves to H11, taking some cover behind the prickly succulent and the raider skewered on it. "Mirabelle, would you do that again? The faster we get this over with the sooner we can skin them all and tan their hides in the sun for parasols." "...what?" That's a Direct the Strike, giving Mirabelle another RBA against Raider 1, Sniper 1, or either of the cats near those two. She's at +1 to hit and +2 damage. (No way to make two Endurance checks for the party, since I'm last to go and everyone else failed, so I'll just ding my healing surges by one.) pre:Edouard...L'Everett III HP: 48/48 (THP: ) AC: 22 Passive Insight: 13 Surges: 6/7 (V:12) For: 18 Passive Perception: 13 Initiative: +9 Ref: 18 Action Points: just the one Speed: 6 Will: 19 Conditionals - Everyone in Edouard's party gets +2 Initiative checks - If someone spends an action point to attack, +8 to hit.

Mirabelle de Pasade Hash can correct me, but I believe it's "everyone makes ONE endurance save. If the party AS A WHOLE makes two saves, you're good. If the party AS A WHOLE doesn't make at least two saves, you lose a surge" "That's...rather disturbing, eladrin. But you are right, in that the sooner we are done, the sooner I can claim one of those cats for my own!" With an imperious wave of her hand, Mirabelle finishes off the enemy raider. Elemental Bolt vs Reflex: 1d20+15 23 1d12+1d6+23 29 "HERE KITTY KITTY KITTY!" pre:
