Forums: Forums -> Nice time for a...white wedding

Month of Tempests, 27th day, 400

I'm standing abound wondering what the hell we're doing next when Carlin goes over to Mordryth to tell him it's a no go with the door. He can't pick the lock. Mordryth strolls over and tells me, Carlin, And Ben Grad to shoulder the door open. If you're wondering why he didn't include himself in the fun, don't be. I'm not. I'm so bored that I could care less and give a go at it. After a few shots we get the door open. When we open the door we find out why it was hard to get in. We find a skeleton in a wedding dress who seems to have barracaded herself in. Why and for how long I have no idea. There's nothing else interesting in the room so I leave. Opal comes back from where she went. She's found some doors down a couple of hallways. Me and Carlin decide to go with Opal to check 'em out. Before I head out Mordryth asks me to give him a boost up to the central dias since it is way up high.

Most of the rooms that we go through have mostly ruined stuff in 'em. We check out this one room with robes in it. They're not in any shape to be worth anything. We're about to start walking out when we're attacked by spiders. Big spiders. Bigger then Riz and he's pretty big for a rat. As we're fighting them Carlin calls for the others since we're out numbered. As we're waiting for the cavalry to arrive Opal falls to the ground and doesn't seem to be moving. I don't know if she got bit or what, but it doesn't help that I'm halfway across the room and have a bunch of spiders between me and her. I shoot off a magic missle at the one on her a take a bite from the spider I'm fighting in exchange. Just as me and Carlin are mopping up the spiders the rest of the group shows up. A bit late and a gold short guys. Shara checks out Opal and says she's just paralyzed and should be fine in an hour or two. We check out the next room and find a wand. We give it to Mordryth to research and figure out what it does when he gets the chance.

Since there's nothing else here we decide to head over to the library in the other building across the courtyard. It's a long pace to the other building. The open courtyard is a not a safe place to be. Any archers perched on any of the buildings would find easy pickings. We get to the building and find the door is locked. Carlin steps up and tries a key he found in the chapel. We luck out and it works. There's a long hallway stretching down to where the library should be. We open the door at the end of the hallway and enter the librarywhere there's a flight of stairs. As we get up to the top of the stairs arrows go flying by us. It's more skeletons. As we get ready to take 'em on I'm expecting Shara to do her prayer thing she did earlier. Except she doesn't and instead goes in attacking them front on. Would've been easier for us if she did the prayer thing. They'd be easy pickings if they were trying to run away. What makes her look dumber is that she misses. Not that I should talk. I get in the way of Opal as she's lining up to shoot one of the skeletons. It's my fault. Not that I'll admit it. I'm lucky she misses. I've got to get use to how everyone acts in a fight in this group. It's not like my gang on my home turf where everyone knew how each other works in a fight. Especially since we've been fighting for years. With this group it's been less then a week. I better learn quick or next time I won't be so lucky. As we're fighting, Ben Grad runs away like a sissy girl. [ENVELOPE]. We finally take care of the skeletons and decide to break here for lunch. Good timing too. I'm freaking hungry.
