Week 1 - Monday afternoon
Steelight looks up as he finishes his gruel. As he stands he speaks. "It seems we have true examples of halfling creativity and halfling stupidity in the same room. Well done Levanna."
He turns and walks away to place his bowl with the other dishes. Once that is done he turns back to the students he has been leading.
"Lunch time is over. Come, Master Tann'Talas is waiting for us."
Without another word he walks out of the room.

And I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that your excuse is perfectly acceptable. Though we expect you to be back and updating again soon. Take as long as you need Meri.

Allyn allows you each to take a few days worth of rations from the third wagon.
*********************************************************
Kyara sits up in the branches of a tree, searching for some sign to tell her what direction her quarry fled. After ten minutes, and several other trees, she finds another small snapped branch. The signs are invisible from the ground, seemingly deliberately so. But the occassional broken branch or disturbed leaves gives her the impression that the survivors of the attack, and perhaps Jocelyn as well, are headed to the north west.
**********************************************************
(In order to maintain sight of the trail, someone will have to move through the trees, unless the party choses to assume a constant northwesterly direction. This will slow you down significantly as none of you are used to swinging through branches.)

Topic: RedWyrm School of Online Adventuring - Q&A Subject: I would imagine
Attack spells would be viewed in the same light as weapon use. Illusions and such (and things like making a bowl fly using mage hand) wouldn't necessarily be frowned upon. Meri can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Topic: Mivara's Delirium Q&A Subject: I'm also curious
I guessing either undead shadows or creatures from the Plane of Shadow. I suppose we'll find out soon enough.
Though I'm not so sure about taking out Conquest's weapon hand just before a fight. He was invisible for a while, but doesn't that make him useless as far as combat?

Topic: Realms of Twilight - A Journey Begins / Q&A Subject: Well...
If people are here (even if it is just the two) then post in the game thread so I have something to go on for an update later today. Otherwise we'll end up skipping 2 updates due to lack of posting.

Topic: Mivara's Delirium Q&A Subject: I have a question
I was under the impression that since Mivara started the game, it was up to Mivara to determine what we came across and the challenges we have to overcome, not any of the rest of us to make stuff up. This is my first Freeform PbP so correct me if I'm wrong. It just doesn't seem right if any random player starts throwing challenges at the group that may have absolutely nothing to do with one another or the overall plot of the game.
Again, please correct me if I'm wrong about this concept.

Well, that was sudden. We go from a good, full game to no posts at all. Where did everyone go? I know I've seen some of you on at least once or twice. So what's the deal? Are people waiting for something from me or what?

So, who cast the polymorph spell? I thought they were half-orcs! Well, perhaps I'll just let the elf get pummeled then.

Topic: Mivara's Delirium Subject: Relaxed
The Watcher gives the minotaur a look of disgust, then walks over to a nearby tree and leans casually against it. After a few scratches in his book he looks up with a sly grin, his eyes blazing almost... excitedly though his entire demeanor remains calm and emotionless.

Are the half-orcs armed and armored?

Topic: Mivara's Delirium Subject: The Watcher
The Watcher glances up as the hunters return. In an instant his book is in his hands and notes are being recorded. He calmly walks over to the hunters and looks them over with an analytical eye, his hand never ceasing in its ongoing scratching in his book.
As he closes the book, and it disappears once again, he looks to Kel and shakes his head disapprovingly. Then turns and takes a seat by the still burning fire, gazing at its hypnotically dancing flames.

Well, let's see how Levanna handles this. Steelight smirks a bit and gives Levanna a significant glance, then goes back to choking down the gruel.

"Now that I've got you all clustered around me for this inquisition I will answer this final question. In business there are always rivalries, but the merchant's guild prevents them from getting too far out of hand and acts against those who attempt to take it too far. As far as Illurian contracts, I don't deal with anyone in particular long enough to really be a rival."
He takes a deep breath and then starts steering each wagon in turn off to the side of the road.
"Thank you for fixing the wheel of my wagon, and for guarding us this far, for whatever good it did. As I said before, I'll be here long enough for my horses to get some rest, then I'll be heading back to Maruk. You can find me there when you return with my daughter."
When the last wagon is in place he gathers wood and begins to build and light a small cooking fire.
(That's all the answers your going to get from him. The time for questions has passed.)

Topic: Realms of Twilight - A Journey Begins Subject: Interspersed Answers.
unbolded quotes are spoken by Heironymus.
"Your daughter seemed very kind. She certainly didn't treat the hired help like servants. We all appreciated that in her. She must have had many friends."
"Indeed she did. even a few among the younger noble houses. But she never seemed very close to anyone."
"Don't worry about some of their questions, they just want to help. Perhaps if we discussed other things? We signed on to help out without even really knowing what sort of things you sell. What type of goods do you sell?"
"I sell many things. Since trade is the only open line between Illuria and Valin, I buy what quality goods I can in either place and sell them in the opposite. Recently many of the wild herbs found commonly in the forests of Valin have been all the rage in Illuria. Apparently they are rare in their lands."
"Really? I have never known much about such things. Generally I either purchased most goods in the markets or the temple provided them. It is much easier that way. have you met many interesting people on your travels?"
"I've come across a number of interesting individuals, but I make an effort not to become too involved. With the tensions between our two nations, you never know when trade lines will be cut off.
"Travel, yes, it has always been something I have wanted to do, as you can see I am here with you. Did your daughter enjoy travelling? As your daughter it would seem hard to not have bug."
"She's traveled among the major cities of Valin. But this was to be her first long journey. All in all I suppose she hasn't really traveled all that much.
"Of course, you had already said that, hadn't you. But then I guess I have been paying more attention to wounds than words, which is probably as it should be. In my temple the lead clerics always carefully controlled who got the traveling assignments. I was privileged as I was a favorite of the prelate, but others weren't so lucky. You'd be amazed at the kind of stories that can run through a temple. But I suppose business is the same way. Rumors and favoritism - politics I guess you could call it. It is everywhere."

Topic: Realms of Twilight - A Journey Begins Subject: Answering the third
Allyn looks at you quizzically. "Her mother is alive, but she hasn't been a part of our family since shortly after Jocelyn was born. She's one of Elvaril's chosen. What does that have to do with this? And no, I haven't considered remarrying... and I hope you're not offering right now. This wouldn't be the best time. I hear relationships based on traumatic experiences never work out." A small smile shows on his face.

Topic: RedWyrm School of Online Adventuring Subject: A sneer and flash of anger
Steelight Shadowborne
Main Corridor
Week 1 - Monday Afternoon
"Hey, Shadowborn, what classes will teaches us the most about melee fighting and dungeon skills" Darkon says just as Levanna almost runs into the elder student.
In a flash he spins around, fire blazing in his eyes and speaks in a low, calm and angry voice.
"Careful where you step little halfling. There are many here who would just as soon put you under their boot. And you elf... I wouldn't spit on these floors if I were you. The professor doesn't particularly care for it."
Without another word he turns back around and continues down the hallway. After a few moments he speaks again.
"Tann'Talas will teach you all you need to know of the martial arts elf. Though he does tend to go a too easy on beginners."

"Slow down dwarf. One question at a time. To my knowledge Jocelyn had no reason to be unhappy. We are moderately wealthy and we have a good life. She had friends of course that she might have told about the trip, but I can't think of one that might wish us ill, particularly her. As far as my business, I work for myself. I deal with some relatively important people in Bevaris and I have a few connections among the merchant's of Maruk but again, none that I believe would wish me or my daughter harm. And no she is not betrothed. Did I answer everything? My memory isn't always perfect."
(The suspicions of Virif yield a Sense Motive check ( 18 ). This check makes you think he might be holding something back, though on what topic you aren't sure).
