 Game Master |
By the time the party reaches the outskirts of the city, Al has caught up with the group. It is late evening as the Silverwalkers approach the Swamp Gate. Almost immediately, Germain senses a problem.
|
 Germain |
Hold up. Up on the tower. Those are not our people.
|
 LE |
How can you tell?
|
| Germain |
Because I know our people. All the important ones, at least.
|
 Quinalin |
He's Right. Look at the armor they're wearing. Chain and steel lamellar. None of our people have armor that nice.
|
| LE |
The Odessans?
|
| Germain |
I don't think so. If the city had fallen, we'd know. The Wraiths, then? Damn. Why would they be wasting manpower guarding the swamp gate? For that matter - why aren't *our* people guarding the swamp gate?
|
 Kimika |
So.. What's the big deal? The Wraiths are our friends, too, aren't they?
|
| Germain |
Allies, maybe. I'm not sure we have many "friends" anymore, at least not in an institutional sense. Damn it! I should never have left the city again.
|
 Mose |
So, what's the big problem here, Germain?
|
| Germain |
Hopefully nothing. Still, I think we should probably not announce our presence just yet. Quinalin, you still have that magic rope?
|
| Quinalin |
nods.
|
| Germain |
Well, there you go. If it's good enough for the Odessans, it's good enough for us. I suggest we wait until nightfall, then scale the walls of the Magus' Tower and check in with Egg. He'll know what's going on.
|
| Quinalin |
And if Wraiths are also on those walls?
|
| Germain |
Well, then we'll know, won't we? We'll still climb the walls, of course. If there is a garrison there, as well, it will be much easier to deal with than the one here, especially if our goal is to get in without raising alarms.
|
| Kimika |
One day I won't have to sneak into my own city anymore.
|
| Germain |
One day. So, what do you all think?
|
| Mose |
Climb over the wall, eh? This plan sounds farrrr too simple to be a Silverwalker plan! snort laugh Why, we'd normally get Al to badger up a tunnel under the wall, or cause a big distraction with herds of wild animals, or have LE sneak in invisibly first, or disguise ourselves somehow. And here we're simply just going to scale a wall and sneak over. Maybe it's been our problem all along that we haven't tried simple plans. I like those best-- I'm all for it.
We should climb, but can't Kimika and Al fly now? At the risk of making this more complicated, perhaps they should float over and see what's up as we start climbing.
|
| Germain |
We actually have a magical climbing rope, but if Al and Kimi want to fly instead of climb, they're welcome to it. I mean, if the place is crawling with Wraiths, we obviously reevaluate, but we've got to get to Egg one way or another. You said so yourself. We're as concerned about simply being seen as we are getting apprehended, moreso honestly. I want us to know what's going on before we're thrust into the middle of it, for once.
Oh, speaking of Al, you find out anything hopeful from the Lizardmanlanders?
