"Did she seriously just say Josejik would be our doom?" *ANGRY FAYC*

[Canalan]

Hey, I want your steel toed boots.
Your boots. Give them to me.
I'll sew some smiley faces into you when you get injured if you don't.

As we walk, I keep an eye out for kobolds, and try and "herbalist" up some plants.

You do so, and find quite a bit of food!

OM NOM NOM. Now I gots some SEEDS, too! Good for chuckin' or plantin'. Multi-purpose, seeds are.

"You are not following the path you were given." Says the Crone. Her voice is the rasp of dried leather rustling through grass, of crackling flames and smoke. She gives off an aura of great power.

"Find yourself the answers in the town of Oslee, in the hands of the forsaken-and-remade. Find yourself the solution in the caverns below Drumdeeps, the smoothe hole the dwarves have made. Find yourself the key in the black tower of Arg'Bonodel, obsidian of goblin-make. And find yourself the gate back home in the island in the lake.

"But stray not from the path ye be given, lest ye call the gods themselves upon your head! Kill not the forlorn hunter, else he be your death, and let not the key from the tower enter the hands of the noble long dead.

"Beware the one that you have killed, and all her little cubs. Beware the ones that ye have spurned, for they still wish your love. And beware the pups of whom ye have befriended, for they shall be your doom."

"...And when you wake up in the morning, consider Suicide."

just fixed that up, there.

"Stray from the... path? Did you guys find a path? Are we supposed to be following a road somewhere? And what IS the local pantheon? Is there a god of mumbly ramblings and uncoherent finger-waggin's?"

She said Josejik's PUPS will be our doom. I think. She also said we shouldn't be going where we are going, I think. No town-building for us. *Sigh*.

Time to start doing laps, learnin to swim stealthily. Who can be a life-guard?

I'm a qualified lifeguard!
Swimming stealthily would be swimming distances underwater, which we're not supposed to allow but which I like to do anyway so we're totally cool.

[Diablous]

Are we there yet?

[Karnewarrior]

Are we there yet?

No. You refused the crone, so another event is due to happen. Here's one last chance to change your minds...

[Diablous]

So thinking about what she was saying, my theory is that we should ask around in Oselee, get a key from the black goblin tower, and take the key to the island. But we should found a fort and prepare before we even think about storming a goblin fortress. i for one am in no hurry to die, and thats assuming that the old crone is not full of it! Hell im in no hurry at all, what is waiting for us anyway? a way back?

Contemplate this. Mutter, "He maybe onto something. We can build up our strength and then do whatever she was babbling about"

I still say we do this. Build a fort and muster up our strength, then do that shit the crone was babbling about.

Yes, why suffer the fate of Frodo and go alone to a dark and strange place when we can do it the Aragorn way with an army behind in front of us

[Karnewarrior]

Because there will be no army. Didn't you hear her? The gods will be pissed. they'll take you down before you get there.

[Diablous]

Why can't they let us build up an army first>

[Karnewarrior]

Why can't they let us build up an army first>

The gods are assholes. Get over it.

Also, I have no idea how to run a TBSG on a forum... So, adventuring for you!

[Diablous]

Damn. Let's go to Oslee. Anyone know where it is? Maybe it's a human town?

[dragnar]

So either we follow the railroad of we will be smote by the power of plot? Fine, lets head to Oslee.
