Are you a GM with players who haven't posted? TheDelinquent Players Help will have Bay12 give you an action!
[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

When?
Soon. About the same time I do this turn. I'm watching for Xant and Oreo to RP about the shield while I think of cool stuff for your cool stuff to do.

"Dran, I still think this Bubble Sphere could serve us well. I mean, I could use it to defend ourselves from further harm, but... I suppose that it's value would also help us..."
True enough, but really, most of the places we explore are abandoned. I don't see how we could use it, and the money we could get from selling it - quite a bit if we negotiate correctly - could let us get other, better gear!

"More money would indeed help... Hmm.. You know, you're onto something there. That might be a good thing, if we can find a foolish merchant who doesn't know the value of some of his wares. Fair enough, brother. We'll sell it, I suppose."

Cool. Time to shoot pigs! Or lizards. Or whatever that thing is/was.

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

It's like a rat thing. I was picturing the Fire Swamp rats from Princess Bride while I was writing them, except stubbier and more disgusting, but just as angry and pitiable.

Wow, I'm glad we're killing it now.

Yeah always be super glad you're killing stuff. I'm not even sure you'll want to eat it after. None of you have ever cleaned anything before. Not even Derry (since he's not actually a hunter).

Derry and Jack prepare for a fight, the stout young boy levelling his spear while Jack's wind kicks up. The Goreby meanwhile is not burdened by such nuances and charges forward with abandon and a gurgling snarl.

[4 vs 9, 5 vs 4] Derry sidesteps easily but Jackson isn't prepared for the sudden attack. The Goreby leaps and crashes into his chest, toppling him to the ground and breaking his focus. It's dagger teeth clamp down on his arm before he even knows what's happening. [3 DMG] Jack howls in pain and throws it off to one side, nursing his ragged arm and fighting back tears. The arm hangs uselessly at his side and Cromwell, still weak from the encounter in the Oldway, looks pale as Death itself.

Despite his wounds, Cromwell still musters the strength to fire off a spell. He focuses that strange power that he can feel flowing over inside himself and concentrates on the Goreby. [-6 MP] The sky above grows angry and hurls forth a bright white bolt of pure energy. [10 DMG] It slams into the Goreby, blowing it backwards and slamming it into a tree. It falls to the ground, blackened all over and bleeding where the bolt struck him.

Derry is eager to finish the fight. [9 vs 6] [6 DMG] His blade passes through the fell creature's throat, ending his struggling.

Goreby Runt [0/12]

Derry leans his spear against a tree and inspects Jack's wounded arm. It looks terribly serious. Cromwell can't move his left arm and the clothes and skin beneath it hang in strings. Luckily he isn't bleeding too badly, somehow, but he won't be able to keep it up for too long.

Alex seems to be having a difficult time translating these particular runes. He's not sure why. Beth isn't sure why either. She decides to start building something out of sand, but she doesn't know what it's going to be yet. No one knows anything right now.

Meanwhile Kyle wants to see if his powers will help him reach the top of the tree. Huh. What should he try to do, exactly? He wonders idly, leaning against said tree watching Alex do his letters and Beth do her constructing.

---
The brothers, being the agreeable sort, despite some early disagreement come to a quick decision. They were set on trading the valuable bubble for cold hard Bie gems as soon as they got the chance. They soon came upon the trees marking the edge of the Oasis. They're just talking, reaching for their empty water skins, when they spot two children, two healthy, fair young children standing there next to a dead Goreby. They exchange bewildered glances. One of the children spots them and the brothers notice his wounded arm.

Told you to stay behind.

Bandage him up and drag the beast back.

Beth didn't know what she was making with the sane, but it would sure pass the time until her wings were ready to fly again.

She flapped them experimentally, but they were still a bit sore...

Action: Continue resting!
