[Sinpwn]

Kaelan makes his way back through the forest, seeing if he can find any isolated mercenaries to pick off.

"Really? A cat punching things? And no, I'm a scribe from the Earth Village, haha."

Saldren gave Nnaranha a few quick strokes on the head before pausing a moment.

"Hey, how'd you know his name was Nnaranha if you found him in the woods?"

"Good. For starters, take this axe and wheelbarrow and go chop a couple trees down. Fill it up."


Jacques

"Ahh!"

The kid is startled, and jumps up before looking around.

He runs into the forest, and you can hear the sound of four feet running away.


Mier

You notice a a couple of people with pets talking to each other, but little else.

You enter the temple. The main hall is dark, with a number of people praying, mostly the temple's outsiders. To the right is the more loud room, and the left is the atrium.


Thoki

You create better than average shadow puppets and play in a corner.

A close observer might notice that your hand movements and the detail of the shadows don't exactly match up, but you pull it off more or less well.

[6->5]

You meet head-on with a mercenary. He looks startled but not very hostile.

"Hey, watch where you're pointing that bow," he calmly says.

[Sinpwn]

"Don't worry, I do my best not to miss."
Kaelan leaps back, urging the roots of the trees to grab the mercenary's feet before taking aim with his bow.

Mier enters the atrium, looking around for the man mentioned in the bounty note. If he is present, Mier approaches him cautiously and asks him, "You're the one to talk to about those totem things that are supposedly in the valley forest, yes? What are they, and why are they so important? I think I know someone who might have information on them-old fart knows something about everything, it seems-but only if he's personally interested, and he asked me to come here and see if they're worth his time."

Gods, I hope this fellow isn't the suspicious sort. Might have to leg it if things go sour.

A lot of Snowberries - (black color - warmer months ; whitish red in the winter), renowned for both their medicinal properties (vigor) and their taste!

Talking Cat "Nnaranha" - Held in arm

Aile's face turned from a happy :3 to one veiled with suspicion.

"An Earth Village Scribe! Very pleased to meet you, um, sir. But I...never said anything about finding him in the woods."

Though, the man looked trustworthy enough, but how did he know?

[Grek]

That was not quite what was expected. But close enough for Jacques - after all, the child is gone now, oui? Now it was time to get the namu. First, he would try to pull it up. If that did not work, he would dig it up with his hands. If even that did not work, he would pry it out with a stone or a branch.

Jacques ignores the fleeing child and sets to work on uprooting the namu.

Talking Cat "Nnaranha" - Held in arm

Aile looked away from the man while thinking about the question. What did bring her to the village other than Nnaranha's suggestion?

"I was...looking for herbs. Medicinal Herbs. And it seems I've forgotten, I'm Aile Urien by the way. Nnaranha also suggested to go up here."

She wondered if she said it right. That was being discreet, right?

You spend 1 power but fail to make the roots entangle the other man.

The man doesn't understand your words for a moment, then a shocked expression washes over his face -

phit- thunk.

An arrow buries itself in the man's chest. Blood oozes out from him. He stands frozen, cupping his wound and looking at his chest, before he falls. His red blood drains from him, and he twitches in pain.

You fell one tree down, jumping aside as it bears down on you. The second time, you narrowly escape, and on the third time your luck runs out. A huge thing crashes down on you, and you are knocked out.

. . .

When you come to, you feel immense pain over all your body, but especially your head. You feel that something is matted on your hair, and also feel the weight of a full-grown tree lying on you. You are pinned.

Cutting down a tree doesn't seem to be something anyone can do ...


Mier

The man nods.

"Well, not being an officer, I don't really know. What I do know is that the higher-ups really want these to be found, and that they are willing to pay for it. You know the bounty is f1200? It's been upgraded this morning to f1500. Really desperate, you can see."

The man seems to be rather young and honest. He is perched on a bench carved from stone and placed next to a wooden round table. On the table is a small pile of gear including his helmet and sword, and a stack of papers.


Jacques

You huff and you puff but you are unable to simply pick the namu up.

You think even the 'king's' horses and men couldn't make this thing move, it is so solidly rooted.

You ask around, but don't find any work you can do. You find yourself in the atrium, where a number of people are loitering about, and in a corner an armored man and another person are talking.

The raven on your shoulder stays quite still.


Aile & Salden

Are talking.

[Flying Dice]

"Hmm. Thanks, anyhow. Do you know where I could talk to someone who might have a bit more information, friend?"

After hearing his answer, Mier smiles, thanking him again, and leaves the atrium, glancing around as he exits.

Kaelan finishes him off with an axe to the throat, trying to avoid getting much blood on him. He goes on to loot his third kill of the day.
With the way today's going, I might just have to go find the rest of these totems after I'm done with this lot. Seems like whatever's going on with them could be very interesting.
