Gel'larian watches Daniel start to mobilize people and his brow becomes knit. He walks up to Daniel and Aesthir talking, and begins speaking at the first opportunity, however small.

It may seem a small point gentlemen, but exactly whose authority are you here on? Just a small detail.

He crosses his arms and looks at them expectantly.

Daniel waves over the Healer of Aeridin and produces a document with orders signed by Justicar Reus. "As you can see, We of the Dragon have decided to take an active interest in this matter. We also have the request of the Aerindite temple here, so we not good sir?" Daniel waits for the Healer of Aeridin to confirm.

gilshem ironstone · « **Reply #42 on:** August 11, 2011, 09:40:56 am »

Gel'larian nods a little.

I am not sure what Justicar Reus has to do with affairs in Brelin or the Silkwood, but if the Aeridintes requested you to be here, then that is well. Can't be too careful. I am sure you understand.

He gives a small smile.

So are we going on patrol then?

Daniel nods brisky, "Assuradely, as soon as matters are more settled here I shall accompany you along with a few other brave souls into Silkwood Cave, Master Gel'larian. We shall leave no tunnel unexplored, no rock unturned until this dark menace is found." Daniel resumes organizing his command post placing chests of food in charge of one Ranger and making him quartermaster and so forth.

*Wren returning to Center hears of the dark elf rumors. He seeks out friends and informants to get as current as he can on the situation. Shaking his head while he talks with some friends.* First Voltrex and now here, there is more a foot then just an incursion. I was told of a great dark dragon in the deep demanding slaves for whatever it nefarious plans are. I bet my elf bottom that this has something to do with that. *he laughs* never any rest!

Gimli quickly finishes packing his gear and reaches for his axe. He overheard an excited conversation between a couple of rofirein scum concerning drow in the silkwood and a reward in true for they're heads. Hell the truth of the matter was he would not need a reward, the very thought of catching them darkies topside and exposed brought a little spittle to his lips. He quickly washes it down with a large gulp of ale. Stopping in mid step he bursts into laughter...suppose he comes across a pitched battle between the darkies and the rofies. Who would he side with? Grinning he steps into the portal.....

From Riley Alexander:

These Dark ones still persist in the caves and I do think they are adding cunning to their tact. I dispatched a bowman just prior to entering the lower depths of the caverns and had taken to rest and heal before continuing. While seeing to my wounds a Dark Warrior squeezed through the tunnel shaft and stood there. Quietly. I immediately arose and made ready but he made no effort to attack. Didn't even turn to face me when I hailed him. After a brief moment he proceeded deeper into the cavern. This I believe was a trap and having not fully recovered from my wounds I made haste to leave. Two warriors followed me out and attacked with the assistance of a long legged pet. I do believe that if I had continued deeper rather than out I should have had a very different out come. Travelers beware.

Quote from: cbnicholson

Daniel responds by clasping Aesthir's arm, "Greetings brother, I am thankful to the Gold you have come. Word has reached my ears a mercenary company seeks glory and true by slaughter. It is my wish that you deal with them. I will have no looting, lawlessness, rape of the forest, or discomfort brought heedlessly to the folk of Silkwood." His visage grows stern. "You are to communicate this to the leader of these mercenaries and politely inform them that any such accusations against any member of the company will be investigated and prosecuted to the full lethal extent of the Gold's Law. Is this understood? Also, they will report to you and you to me. It is my intent to use these warriors as a anvil with our own men as the hammer once the dark elves are located. Inform them to camp in the clearing nearer to Haven, Sir. Any dark elves they come across there are their own to deal with as they see fit." Daniel regards Aesthir calmly awaiting acknowledgement of his orders.

*Aesthir clasps strongly his arm* I am not -coming- brother. I've been over this area before you and your company arrived, and had been fighting this blasted creatures for some weeks now. **he passes him a report of the sightings he found* And have been looking for the source of this infestation. Now perchance , its amoung your friends someone who knows the dark tongue?

**Once he speaks of the Mithril Legion , he nods and smile* And of course I'll see about that if you see my abilities better fitted to put those savages in control over my knowledge of the situatiion, gladly help you on that task, I'll head back to Haven then and start to trace them inmediatelly .

**he relases the clasp after after a small squeze on the arm, looking at him for answer to his question as he mounts his dark steed *

Daniel looks a touch disapointed then turns thoughtful, "Perhaps my gratitude was premature, as for an expert on dark elf matters I have given some thought to using a mercenary of the same breed, brother. I await an answer to my inquiry as we speak.I do; however, thank you for attending the mercenaries, Sir." Daniel pats the flank of the horse and waves.

Lance Stargazer · « **Reply #49 on:** August 12, 2011, 04:02:26 pm »

*Aesthir gives him a smile and nods*

Gratitude is not what i am here for, and should not be accepted by this knight till something was done about this situations. *he nods slowly smiling* So worry not since its not gratitude what i expect or search. Still it won't be disrespected nor words dishonored from my brothers or other equally honrable people

If my advice is appreciated even if not asked, I'd be wary for hiring mercenaries on that regard brother , they blend amoung us and Dark elves are not to be trusted, none of them, and mercenaries or not we should be wary, We don't want to get caught by a doble-agent. At least if there is one of them that you can call friend at least that would give you some reasurance. I leave that situation for your better wisdom to decide of course it was just an advice with the best intent of my heart.

We'll speak later brother, Please let me know if you find someone that speaks of the dark tongue, **he nods slowly* May His Holy Breath cleanse your way of enemies.

**he awaits enough respectfully to hear any answer before departing *

Daniel's face clouds with a touch of anger after Aesthir leaves and he mutters low, "Does he think I am fool? Bah, of course I do not trust any mercenary, but we must have someone who speaks their wretched tongue."

From Riley Alexander:

The Dark Elf threat in the Silwood Caverns increases. Not only do they have Warriors and Archers they have now managed to infiltrate Master Rogues, Clerics, and I do believe Priests. Recently a band of us, Kian Takeda, Zigruum Frostbeard, Griff Silverstrand and myself were clearing the caverns of the long legged death when we came upon these newcomers, as well as the plain Warriors and Archers, on numerous occasions. These newcomers have also brought new pets. Those that steal the armor off your person during battle and those that sap your strength. These are in addition to the species I have warned of prior. Beware adventureres of all manner and type. It would be foolish beyond all measure to venture to the caverns without the gift of sight as the Master Rogues can fade into the shadows again and again. As always. Stay vigilant. Stay brave. Be victorious.

A long line of Toranite Knights and a handful of scouts led By Sir Cedric are seen riding slowly into Folian's Vale, 23 in all. They stop at the outside perimeter of the circle to pay their respects to the Healers of Aeridin before making their way to the Rofirein command center. When they arrive, High Protector Poetr exits his tent and surveys the armored column of Toranite knights with a raised brow. Sir Cedric presents himself and hands over a diplomatic pouch containing his orders and states. "High Protector Poetr, Lord Commander Stargazer has ordered us to Folian's Vale as an attachment to your forces, under your command. Where shall we set up camp Sir?

As they set up camp, Cedric gently reminds his men that they are to uphold the standards of Toran while on this joint operation, even while under Rofirein command. They all nod in understanding.

Gel'larian watches the Knights come in to the clearing and raises an eyebrow.

Something tells me the druids have their work cut out for them regardless of the outcome. I hope this is done soon.

Enzo roams Folians Vale speaking to each of the rangers on guard. Thanking them for their service and doing what he can to bolster them up. Stick to it lads.... Longstrider watch over each of you.

Ravemore · « **Reply #56 on:** August 13, 2011, 01:04:20 pm »

Enzo's actions have a definite impact in raising the morale of the rangers standing guard and patrolling the perimeter. Many of them share the sentiments of the archer Gel'larian, who has also been assisting with the defense of the grove. War always takes a toll on nature and the balance...

cbnicholson · « **Reply #57 on:** August 13, 2011, 01:22:09 pm »

Daniel greets the Toranites with a smile on his face. As the newly arrived Knights settle in he familiarizes himself with each of them sharing a few kind words. "I know the worth of the warriors of your order, you are all most welcome here." Daniel makes it clear that they serve under thier own commander, but he will make suggestions of the group from time to time.

Ravemore · « **Reply #58 on:** August 13, 2011, 01:50:31 pm »

A few wandering druids have heeded Zigrum's call and have showed up in Folian's Vale. They begin preparing natural defenses and scouting the surrounding areas in animal form for signs of the dark elf menace. They meet with Enzo, Rory, and Gel'larian inquiring into the situation and seeking information on what has transpired thus far. They frown when they see the encampments of Toranite and Rofirein knights, whispering "We must end this and restore the balance."

*Zigruum's mood picks up when he senses his fellow friends of the forest arrive at Folian's Vale. He makes haste toward Folian's to meet up with them as well as Gel, Enzo and Rory to speak about what they've seen and determine the best way to bring the balance back to the Silkwood.*
