Arngeir stands

"Will try to heal him again. Last time today, I think."

Once again he kneels in front of the man, and prays before placing his hands on his chest in an attempt to reduce the infection further.

Idril inspects the wounds and wipes at the man's forehead with a wet cloth. To Arngeir, she says, "You look tired. You have done enough for now. Did the khuzdal bring your breakfast? Then you should get some sleep. Sax can show you to a palette in one of the wagons."

Can a second Physician check do any good?

Once again Arngeir prays and focuses and the infection shrinks a little more and lessens in its sickly color.

Infection healed from H4 to H5, will be healed at H6. 24 hours after becoming infected he will gain a natural healing roll, %d vs his Endurance x5 plus the attending physicians SI (5 for Idril). Much better odds for him then if it was an H3 still. Arngeir has 2 FL, 40 minutes of rest or 20 minutes of sleep.

At this point you are just tending his wound, keeping him comfortable etc. This grants him your Physician SI (5) as a bonus on his natural healing roll in the morning. Infections get 1 roll per day, wounds get 1 roll per 5 days (for Humans and Dwarves, Elves are immune to infection and get 1 healing roll per 3 days). Arngeir can of course attempt Psi Healing before that if he wishes but as noted there is a 6% chance each time he upsets Eynwif (with a 50% chance she then requires retribution). A CF on Psi Healing is also bad as Arngeir will end up with an infected G4 injury to his thigh.

Algrim rolls his eyes and grabs what is needed to serve soup to the injured.

After handing out the food and having some to eat himself Algrim notices one of the guards waving him over.

Algrim heads over to see what the guard waving him over needs. "How might I be o' service?"

Guard to Algrim. "I just found some blood here on the ground, I am pretty sure none of us were over here last night and I know we didn't find a Foulspawn body here."


Algrim would know that a badly wounded Orc is unlikely to return to the tribe as they would be just as likely to serve him up for dinner as help him with his injuries.

Please give me an Awareness Skill check (%d vs EML 65).
You don't have tracking but you can substitute Awareness x 1/2 if you decide you want to try tracking it, you would get a bonus as there is a blood trail to follow.

Arngeir nods and stands

"It is good. Will heal with rest."

"Food yes, then small rest. I'll not sleep in day, not child."

The Ivinian will get some food, and then ask "Is beer for thirsty man?"

There is a hogshead of small beer on one of the carts.

Idril Nagfly asks Sax the merchant if he is willing to open the keg for Arngeir and Algrim.

Algrim "Likely it's from that injured orc. Their kind likely put em on a spit if it returns home. So I bet it was scopin us out last night. I'll try n hunt it down, don't you worry."

Awareness Non-Combat Skill Roll [1d100]=52
for some reason rolled twice Non-Combat Skill Roll [1d100]=30

Sax, "Yes of course. Everyone could use some before we try and get moving I don't like the idea of spending the night here again. I have decided we will be heading back towards the ruined abbey we passed, it isn't to far and it should be more defensible."

To Arngeir and Algrim, "You are both welcome to join us." Looking around, "Where is the Dwarf?"


Algrim looks along the trail of the blood and notices something sticking out from under a bush, moving up and examining it, it appears to be an Orcish Mang. Algrim is able to easily follow the blood trail (the second roll was CS for Awareness x 1/2 /tracking. Algrim can make an Awareness Skill improvement roll, %d+Awareness SB, you need a 66+ to go up 1).

Arngeir

When the beer is handed out, Arngeir takes one enthusiastically and drinks deeply. He frowns "You útlendingur need to learn beer like my people.", however he continues to drink it while he eats.

To Arngeir and Algrim, "You are both welcome to join us." Looking around, "Where is the Dwarf?"

"Dwarf? I know not. We sleep at abbey last night. Where you go after?"

He looks around for Algrim.

Arngeir catches a glimpse of Algrim off in the woods 50 yards or so with one of the guardsmen.

Arngeir points

"Algrim there, in woods."

He starts to walk over, beer in hand.

Algrim points to the discovered weapon "Found some orc blood an that there orc weapon. I suspect there be one skulking out here Arngeir."

Arngeir looks around the woods suspiciously.

"One orc not problem for all us? We keep eyes open, guard. It not with other orcs?"

Algrim "I'm thinkin it's tha one they hurt in the raid. Best take it's weapon and head back. Harder fer it to do much if it ain't got a weapon."

The teamsters get the Mules hitched to the carts and the panniers loaded on the other mules. The injured man is moved to one of the carts where a makeshift bed has been made. Then Sax orders a return to the ruins of the Abbey.

"It would be great if you two would come with us. Safety in numbers and all." Sax says to Algrim and Arngeir.

Actions?

Algrim needs to make a %d roll to try and improve his Awareness.

Algrim after grabbing the orc weapon and moving back to the wagon and others the dwarf nods his head at the offer "I think we already decided ta go with ya folk if offered. So that'd be a yes, safety in numbers and all that."
