[The Wandering Bard]

Kadion laughs at the wrymlings comment. "Well little one, surely you didn't expect evil to taste divine" the bard smiled even wider at his own word play.

after a moment the bard gestures for Ashkore and Valkier as well as Omiran to move to the side for a private conversation.

"Gentleman we seem to have an a new option avilable to use. we could leave my our new captive with Lord Marven's men and also introduce Leoster to the Lord and his men. they would be able to watch him and might even gain future information through him or about him after were gone. I will not give up our captives with out majority consent. so can we come to an agreence?"

[Zane]

Liani cocks her head to the side, not understanding the extent of the bard word play. But as Ashkore chuckles a little, she just moves in what seems to pass for a shrug from the wrymling and goes back to watching the events as they unfold.

Ashkore glances back at the captives after Kadion's idea, and replies. "It would be best to leave them instead of dragging them around with us. I would like to question your attacker about who has aided him in Mustifon. As long as Lord Marven agrees to try to question him and agrees to set Leoster free once all is done, I can see no problems with that idea. I did agree to allow Leoster to go free once showing us the dungeon, but I don't want him free just yet, in case he decides to return to Iellon."

[The Mistwalker]

The Warforged nods his head to the Bard Lord.

Afterwards the warforged walks up to the others and listens to the Kadion's idea. "I agree With the both of you. I would rather leave Leoster here so we wouldn't have to consider him in our coming battles."

[Anaesthesia]

Assuming that Valkier pointed out Ashkore, and his fellow cleric (Majah) waited until a break in the current conversation; Majah clears his throat.

Cally & party do arrive at the campsite. You see people talking, cooking over campfires; Bahamut clerics milling about near Ashkore and Valkier.

[Zane]

Ashkore turns to the visitors, and noting the symbol of Bahamut (which I'm assuming at least one of them is displaying) Ashkore smiles. "Si huven wux widegoa ekess oposs vhira ixen shafaer malsvir," he says in greeting. "You appear to be needing something, what is it?"

Ashkore turns to the visitors, and noting the symbol of Bahamut (which I'm assuming at least one of them is displaying) Ashkore smiles. "Si huven wux widegoa ekess oposs vhira ixen shafaer malsvir," he says in greeting. "You appear to be needing something, what is it?"

((Yep, they have small crests of Bahamut on them))

"Vi charric ihk wux," he says, "From our Brass dragon friends." He hands you a folded and sealed piece of parchment, which has a crest of Charlemange and Alexander.

Opening the wax seal, there is a letter from Alexander:
"Chiili svabol wux zklaen, balance zklaen qe restored. qe sela di wer arcaniss batobot ui harbored persvek wer whedab arena di Iellon."

[Valkier Silverwing]

Valkier agrees with the others on what they should do with the parties prisoneers. then turns his attention to Ashkore who just received the letter.

[Zane]

Ashkore reads over the letter, then folds it up and places it under his left gauntlet, so that he does not lose it. Looking to his companions, he tells them, "Our quest, nay - our job ahead has been shown favor, and reminded to be cautious of Iellon's magic. Based on the notice of the Spellflinger's Challenge, it is not surprising that Iellon will have a strong magical support. This will be a battle to remember, I am sure. But we will burn out this spot of evil and return peace to the locals. How soon before everyone is ready?"

[Anaesthesia]

Cally dismounts her steed, with Draeden and Amarilla not too far behind. Cally is close enough to hear the last bit of what Ashkore said. "We have a lot of support with us now. We're going to give them a good run for their money."

[The Wandering Bard]

Kadion walks up to the gathering of people. "I think that little stone I gathered earlier will help alot in the coming times. as will silence spells if we will be fighting casters."

looking "That all who came at the groups behest. thank you all for coming, reguardless of your reasons. soon we will be battling a plague that has effected this entire region. we gather here in this place uncommon allies, united under one goal. togeather each of our unique abilities will help us to prevail in the coming trials. I can't as one promise that the road ahead will be easy, but what is to be gained is so much gather then the sum of us. togeather we will free this land of a darkness that has covered the green sun dappled plains, and darkened our meadows, and cast a gloom over our city." having given his mel gibson like speech full of emotion and more then its share of flare the bard quites down and listens to the ideas for stratagies.

[headeast76]

Shay shows up next to Kadion and says " I think it best to send in a couple of secret scouts under the cover of darkness to see what we are facing and if the oppurtunity arose maybe take out a general or two."

[The Wandering Bard]

i agree pipes up the bard. any gathered information before our our battle would be very useful.

[Anaesthesia]

Lord Marven frowns at this. "We've lost so many scouts that way..."

[Zane]

Ashkore nods to Lord Marven. "Then we will send no one else. Iellon is expecting a visit and from Liani's report - even more of Iellon's forces have been called into the arena, so he'll have even more eyes open for spies sneaking in. And if many have been lost before, I will not send others in without hope that they can return. Of course, if someone wishes to scout ahead, I will not stop them either - but no one will be ordered in ahead as a scout." Ashkore looks around as he speaks, making sure to look at everyone, especially Lord Marven and Shay. "From what I have been told, the layout of the arena has been scouted before. So, we use that information and make the best plan we can."

OOC:Reposting the maps here.
This is a known hideout for some of Iellon's minions (Just ignore the word Rebel on the top) It is also going under some repair. This is a temple they have claimed. It sits right outside the Arena, there is no visible tunnel between the two, at least above ground.


This is the catacombs that the above leads to and is directly under the arena.
