[Archangel]

"What are we likely to have to kill in the course of this task?"

[Ochita]

How big is the altar?

[Iituem]

"I've never seen the altar, so I don't know, but by all accounts not much larger than a small table.  Two to four of you should be able to lift it without trouble. As for what you're going to have to kill, I should warn you that the Elven altar is supposedly found in a near-endless forest.  I would be wary of wild beasts if I were you."

[Ochita]

"Is there any help you can give before hand?

[Archangel]

"May I have a full suit of armor, preferably plate, another axe and a sword or two?"

[Lordinquisitor]

Well, all the Elves actually emigrated when Luna offered them amnesty to return to Aether, so only the Dwarves live there.

Also, you aren't actually on the Plateworld yet.  You're still on the ringworld of Aether - but you'll be headed to the Plateworld soon enough.

Oh, i think you are wrong here. Yes, most went to Aether. But some stayed there, as far as i`m concerned. But it shoulnd`t be that many, that`s true.

[Iituem]

Oh, i think you are wrong here. Yes, most went to Aether. But some stayed there, as far as i`m concerned. But it shoulnd`t be that many, that`s true.

Really?  Well, in this particular adventure, the elves are as good as gone, in any case.

[Iituem]

The dwarf bursts into laughter at Trun's request.

"Oh yes, orc, a fine request!  And what sort of reward would I have to offer if I gave you that?  Not to mention the fact that only the greatest of warriors can even afford such a thing.  I can offer you and your companions one weapon, shield or piece of armour, in finest copper, from our hoard.  Or a supply of medicines we received in trade from the elves.  Or whatever sort of tool you feel you will need, if we have it.  Once you have retrieved the altar, you can take your pick of our treasure, but until then I am afraid our resources are somewhat stretched."

[Archangel]

OOC: I assume you mean one item each? The way it's worded, we, as a group are only allowed one item, which would mean that these people are in a very bad situation.

IC: "Then I shall take a sword, a claymore preferably."

[wolfchild]

Well then, i would like to look at you're herbs and medicines

GEt "shamanistic" supplies

[Iituem]

Unfortunately, the secret of swordsmithy (and in fact smithy) is closely guarded by the orcs.  These dwarves don't even have a functioning foundry; they produce weaponry by hammering and drawing native copper mined out of the rock.  They are unable to produce a claymore for Trun, but a quick search of their hoard produces a pole-arm consisting of a wooden shaft with a curved sword-like blade as long as the shaft on the end.

Riest, you examine the 'medical supplies' brought to you.  The clay jar contains a variety of dried herbs, most intended for fevers and similar minor illnesses.  You do find some powerful painkillers amongst the herbs, though, which should serve well in battle.  There is also a small pot of ointment you can use to stave off rotting on wounds.

[Ochita]

Is there anything that has a trace of magic?

[Iituem]

Elian: [WAH: 13]  You try to use the techniques you developed for sensing concentrations of Essence, but it appears that nothing in the hoard is enchanted.  Which makes sense, given that dwarves don't have magic.

[Ochita]

I take a swallow (Read: A shaft with a blade on each side, like an oar)

[Karnewarrior]

Take a dagger. Stow it in a hidden compartment in my clothing.
