Topic: What's in an Adventure
Subject: Smell the Flowers ( Barrows of the Forgptten II )


The undead army invading Barrowshadow has been destroyed, but all is not well yet. The Mage-Cleric had a back-up plan. He had enlisted the aid of an evil Druid prior to his defeat and, after his narrow escape from a previous series of encounters, he brought the Druid and his "children" to a previously-ransacked barrow he had inhabited before. These "children" were actually fast-growing flowers that had a rudimentary intelligence and ejected a poison-spore cloud when certain conditions were met. These new flowers were now growing in profusion in the area surrounding Barrowshadow, and have decimated the population. The call has gone out for someone to rid the town of this new menace. Are you one of those who answers that call?

Topic: Under The Sea
Subject: Sing, sing a song ...


The halfling began his "sea song", then the dwarf began one of his own. It seemed contagious, for the crew above began their own singingm but they didn't seem to all be singing the same song. The result was more cacophony than melody, but it had the desired effect. The mood above and below seemed to change for the better. And while Jon did not sing with the rest, he was not above slapping his leg or stamping his foot in time to whatever his ears heard.

When the halfling stopped singing, his demeanor changed. The lightness seemed to leave his face and was replaced with a sort of curious look. When the rest of the "washing crew" stopped singing also, the screams from above-deck could be heard plainly. About the same time, some of the "crew" came rushing down-deck, stumbling and/or falling on their way donw the ladders, some screaming, some bloody, all of them showing fear -- or something akin to it.

Jon needed no prompting to turn and rush up the ladder, fighting as best he could to make his way to the upper deck against the rush and press of those trying to escape that area. As soon as he gained the deck, he glanced about to see what was happening, drawing his short sword as he looked. He could have wished for his bow or staff, but he had left them under the watchful eye of a fellow passenger. Jon was briefly thankful that he had the weapon he had, because it didn't look as if the boarders threatening (and killing) the crew were going to let him just walk up to his stash and claim them.

And noticing those who were invading their peaceful little vessel, he also noticed that the ships, although side-by-side, were facing opposite directions, and the ropes they had used to grapple and pull the two vessels together were strained by this odd circumstance. Maybe, just maybe, if all or some of the ropes were cut, the boarders would have other worries more pressing. It was worth an attempt

The majority of the crew were defending or fleeing, so Jon felt that a plea to them for help to do what he was about to try would fall on ears deafened by other worries. He did a double-take when he saw the dwarf making gestures and muttering, rather than grabbing a weapon. He glanced about for Ja'ara or the halfling and (if nearby) asks the nearest to assist him as he tries to cut the ropes. Whether or not either of them is near enough to hear him, Jon will run to the nearest grappling-rope, as quietly as possible so as not to draw undue attention to himself, and try to slash it in twain with his short sword. He will move on to cut the next rope only after the one he is currently working on becomes severed.

Topic: Under The Sea
Subject: A taker


After speaking to the halfling in his native language, jon notices a change in the small man's face -- brief, noticeable, but undecipherable. Jon was unsure if it was surprise at one such as himself knowing the language or because he botched his translation somehow. Oh, well. That could be determined later. For now, he would speak in the Commmon dialect to answer Finder, as the halfling called himself.

"A song? I would like to hear one, yes," Jon smiled big, "but please don't ask me to sing along. I couldn't carry a tune in a tin cup."

As they worked, he glanced askance at the silent dwarf, wondering how to elicit some form of response from him. He knew that, while most dwarves were ebullient and gregarious, some had a tendency toward introspection and aloofness. Jon had a thought that this one might be one of the latter types. Well enough, that. He would wait without rancor, having made his "gesture", as it were.

Subject: A rub-a-dub scrub, bub ....


Figures. Jon was almost eager to leave the "crow's nest" and get to deck. Take a few strides, stretch, breathe in some cool night air while mulling over how much longer this would take. Nope. New duty. Wash bowls and plates, and stuff like that. When he saw the piles of what they had been eating off of, and the condition they were in, Jon frowned, but said nothing. But his new friend Ja'ara was also assigned to this duty and it would give them a chance to talk some more. And with something to actually do to break the monotony. When he and Ja'ara arrived on the galley extension, there were also two more men, of shorter stature, that had also been pressed into the scrubbing ritual. One was obviously a dwarf. The other, although Jon would have guessed him a halfling, seemed to be much too tall to be one of that diminutive race.

Emboldened by Ja'ara's acceptance and likeable attitude, he asked the two smaller men,"Alrighty, then. What ones have been done and where do I start?" As his eyes adjusted to the dimmer light here below, Jon soon became a tad disheartened to see the sheer number of vessels and the deplorable condition thereof. "By the way, my name's Jon. Jon Small. It's a name you may hear again soon, and with good reason."

He dipped his canvas rag into a barrel of water and snatched a stack of bowls and begand to scrub them, He then rinsed each off, carefully noting not to use the barrel of water that had already obviously been used for that purpose heaven knows how many times already. It soon became evident that the vessels were not ever going to be really clean, but he did his best to sliminate what soil he could as quickly as possible. When his rag needed more water, he ladled it onto the rag with a clean dipper so as not to contaminate any more water. But at least here there was somanionship, of sorts, if allowed, and a doable task to occupy them, albeit that task was a bit unpleasant sometimes.

To test his guess, Jon turned to the non-dwarf and spoke in halfling. It was imperfect, but it showed a knowledge of the language, at least. "And are of the shire you?"

Topic: Under The Sea
Subject: chirping in the nest


"I am called Ja'ara. It is a pleasure to find another who seeks only recognition of his name. Perchance we will find glory in the coming days?"

Jon took and shook the proferred hand. "Well met, Ja'ara!" He hoped he pronounced his new friend's name correctly. He almost missed the hesitation in the pronunciation, as if Ja'ara had a slight catch in his throat while saying his name. "Did I pronounce your name correctly? Or is it Jahrrah?"

Waiting briefly for a response, Jon then answers Ja'ara's question:

"Find glory? For sure and for certain, I would say! For that is how names become known, indeed. By action and deed. Thought and intention are well enough, but I have been taught that to manifest intent with solid action illustrates to all who witness it what your name should mean to them."

"But we cannot chat and also do our job efficiently. A barrier has been lifted twixt us, and that will ease our communication. And though I feel that it is fine to break the monotony with an observation or thought, we are up here to watch. Even though I know not what we are to watch for, I will watch But I look forward to telling you, later, whatever you wish to know about me, and to learn about you as well."
