The heroes met the King. Things got tense when Valin wouldn't bow to the King, but Seraph managed to calm things down. Check the second page for more details.
Tan'quin and Sirloaz return from their scouting mission, reporting the presence of goblins around a mountain. The group splits up into two groups, one group (Valin, Alden, Sirloaz, and Tan'quin) will create a diversion, drawing away the goblins. The rest of the group is going to hit the goblin camp and travel through the mountain.
Valin's group begin their diversion. They pass through some magical wards. Alden's jewel has some sort of magical reaction with the ward, causing the ward to fail.
The rest of the group begins to feel nervous about the attack, since the enemy appears to be too strong.
In the cave, we're introduced to a NPC known simply as "The Priest." He's commanding the goblins. He sends 50 goblins after Valin's group and retains 50 goblins at the mountain.
Ursa suggests that the rest of the group should pretend to surrender, so they can get close enough to kill the leader.
Finn and Henry do some reconaissance, but they are captured after killing a few goblins.
Cyrus leads the charge to attack the goblin camp, where he promptly challenges the leader to a duel. He is lead away.
New Characters:
misspriss: Carmenia (Car-mean-yuh) Virsetil
She's an elf that has been captured by the goblins.
aeroman: Damon (no last name due to amnesia.)
Damon is able to switch from a falcon to a man and back. He's a merc, who would be a brawler.
Cyrus engages The Priest in combat. The Priest is a combat mage, meaning he uses magic to enhance reflexes, strength, endurance, etc.
In the meantime, Valin's group engages the 50 goblins sent to kill them. A battle ensues, but the group prevails with no losses. They pursue the surviving goblins to the mountain.
The group is about to get burned to a crisp when Cyrus calls off the dragon, which apparently has some affinity for dwarves, go figure that one out.
The dragon leaves, but is hit by a really nasty fireball in the process. The dragon lands on the mountain, causing a cave in that keeps the group inside the caves.
Seraph is buried under rock, but he is brought out. He was injured in the process. He has odd dreams in which Fatlhyr and Bane are discussing his fate.
In the meantime, the group attempts to recover from serious injuries.
The group rests in the caves. Adrian heals Henry before going over to heal Seraph. When he tries to though, Seraph unconciously sucks the life force out of Adrian in order to heal himself. Adrian is drained of energy and falls unconcious.
Alden notices that the jewel in his possession is changing.
