Chapter Eighteen - Part 4
Oggelly went to remove his clothes and clean himself as he explained where he found the pits. After comments about the location, the Eglets started explaining their thoughts to Feladin. He barely knew any chemistry, but worked to only make certain that the elves had a method and were not simply wasting his time.
It took effort to crack the pits and separate the husks. The protective coating of the piths were then placed in some cloth and pounded into as close of a powder as possible. The crushed remains of the husks were placed in the pot before Sylvia cast a spell to release the fire from the substance. A bubbling liquid formed that was poured into a cleaned beer bottle. The total liquid was not much, but they hoped it was enough of what they wanted.
The results of our heroes experiment becomes apparent.

Chapter Eighteen - Part 3
The evening was not unpleasant. Some of the people were nosey, and stopped to chat to the travelers. Few claimed ever seeing an elf. A number of the men complimented Sylvia on her appearance. She was friendly to everyone that approached. All noticed that her two companions were protective of the lady, so she was treated with respect.
Oggelly found himself watching the people. He originally started just because he was uncertain of his surroundings. The people were friendly enough however, and his sister was wonderfully managing the conversations, so he simply started watching the people because they were keeping tabs on the strangers. He knew that there was lot about this world he had yet to learn, so analyzed a lot of minor details simply to try and get a better understanding about those who had grown up in this culture.
Our heroes act on a plan to hurt the outer network of the forces that brought them to this world and changed them.

This month's Gearing up for Eberron article on WotC is a bit of a dual feature as it also has a connection to the new Expanded Psionics Handbook.
The fifth article in this line presents some facts about the place of psionics in the world of Eberron in form of a new race (the Kalashtar) as well as an organisation (The Dreaming Dark)

Chapter Eighteen - Part 2
The party did not head into the mountains. They spent the day walking and looking. The complete change in terrain from the hills to jutting peaks was just more of a transition than they were prepared to make.
The peaks were not bare. There were trees, meadows, and all the normal components of a tremendous parcel of land. The peaks went up into clouds, but the clouds were presently not thick so they could make out the tops of most mountains within sight. There were claims from each of the three about spotting deer and goats on the slopes, but no sighting that all three could verify.
The heroes learn of a situation and move to take advantage of it.

Legends of Lyros: General Reborn - Chapter 1 Part 3
Posted by tamrick on Monday, April 05, 2004 (11:44:12) (607 reads) 2 comments |
Colin had known beforehand that if they were defeated there was only one possible solution left and time was precious. Time was so precious in fact that in a short two months time, his world had changed forever. He had been happy once, but it all seemed like a fading memory now. Like a beautiful dream escaping from the mind just after waking. Now, his family, his friends, his home… all of it was gone. In one swift blow the hand of fate had sent him on this downward spiral. No, he thought, the hand had a name, and it was not fate. It was this name… this man, this one man who had taken it all from him. He swore to himself, that he would have his revenge.

Chapter Eighteen - Part 1
The next morning was an active occasion at the viscount's table. The high noble tried to handle most normal business with his advisors between bites of food. The knights would fill pauses in the viscount's activity with both important and hopefully amusing comments. Guests were not forgotten, but the nobles did have business to transact while the three had nothing truly important on their agenda.
Feladin did manage to speak words of thanks for the gracious treatment of his group. He stated the desire of him and his companions to continue on with their travels. The viscount stated his pleasure in the quality of their company and allowed the three permission to return to their journey. The knights informed the three not to go directly west into the Beyshathile, but look for a path north. The knights mentioned that the witches headed west yesterday and that they were looking for trouble. Feladin responded that it was good advice that he would attempt to follow.
Our heroes start their journey to discover themselves while the absent member initiates a situation of his own.
