Quest #36 "Out Of The Jungle, Into The Swamp"

[jemmus]

Til-dirion and bugs both gone, Theo remarks. I wonder if there is any connection.

I'd like to keep the sword, if that's alright.

Tlachtga

"I have no use for anything at the moment and am fine with both of you keeping those items. Maybe the helmets should be kept as group items."

[Quonundrum]

Aliendron

"Whomever takes the Grey Mega-Gem should carry either the mask or helmet for practical purposes. To be honest, after my disastrous experience with the disruptor torch, I am averse to claiming any of these strange artifacts."

[OGRE MAGE]

+1 Bastard sword Theo
Light Saber: (3 charges) Torbath

Glue Gun: (2 uses) Unclaimed
Toxic Sprayer: (1/4 remains) Unclaimed
Nail Gun: (31 nails remaining) Unclaimed
Welding Helmet: Unclaimed
Gas Mask:/Grey Mega-Gem: Unclaimed

Group items still need to be carried by someone.....in the group.

Once this gets decided, I will lay out some XP for this mission. (there, that should do the trick)

[Quonundrum]

How about this? Gives Lerrick more offense options, and I know Alordan loves those killer trees and if Tlachtga wishes to refrain, Andron will take the gem and mask.

[jemmus]

Sounds good to Theo.

Lerrick

The cleric walks over to Andron and hands him the large gem. You know more about the riddle of the gems and obelisks than I. Are you going to continue looking for the other gems and obelisks?

Lerrick wouldn't mind keeping the mask but doesn't need the bulky glue gun. Does anyone want it?

[Quonundrum]

Done! Gives me an idea for a new spell.

How about this?

+1 Bastard sword: Theo
Light Saber: (3 charges) Torbath
Glue Gun: (2 uses) Torbath
Toxic Sprayer: (1/4 remains) Alordan

I posted my last post before seeing this post. There are two gas masks, the other one in Lerrick's possession. Tlachtga can either take the glue gun and nail gun OR take the gas mask. Your choice

[OGRE MAGE]

Did we forget about Tlachtga?

Or did she refrain?

[Quonundrum]

Tlachtga

"I have no use for anything at the moment and am fine with both of you keeping those items. Maybe the helmets should be kept as group items."

Refrained, unless I am mistaken?

Only one gask mask.

You may be thinking of the welding helmet?

Aliendron

Lerrick

The cleric walks over to Andron and hands him the large gem. You know more about the riddle of the gems and obelisks than I. Are you going to continue looking for the other gems and obelisks?

"Indeed, I am. After what we've learned from Til-dirion, the nature of the threat is quite evident now. I was perplexed why a temple to Pelor would have an undead inhabited crypt to dark gods underneath. He said the system of obelisks is reliant on a delicate balance between positive and negative energies and the seemingly random pools of utter darkness are sources of negative, evil energy."

"The abandoned and corrupted temple to Pelor suggests this balance has been disturbed. The pools, perhaps also The One, may be symptoms of this damage. A complete collapse of the system could be catastrophic not just for this island, but the entire Oerth!"

[Rex]

I have been calling them both helmets.

Torbath

Torbath will agree to the division.

This is what we are going with then?

Any disagreements?

[kruk]

sounds good to me

[jemmus]

Theo agrees.

[Rex]

Agree

[OGRE MAGE]

Heading Home?
The Dead Marsh
Moonday, 8th of Harvester?
Mid Morning, Cloudy, Humid, Buggy

After a quick discussion about who should get what from the metal ship spoils, the group decide they better get back to civilization sooner then later.

Looking around at the froglings, who are now all but ignoring their presence, the group knows it is time to depart, despite their inability to speak with the swamp dwellers absent leader before they leave.

Actions?

Back the same way you came?
Staying on the underwater path as long as you can?
Most direct path to the beach?

You sorry little ingrates!

"Let's follow the submerged path until we're out of the swamp, then south to the maze and the trail to the beach. I'd like to avoid the dwarves on the main logger's trail."
