Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 11, 2013 Author Posted October 11, 2013 It seems Haldor was forgetting something.... where was Brutus? Quote
Tachyon Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 "Haldor, we best go to the palace to ask Brutus for permission to walk the walls." Mizuki flips a coin and starts waiting. Quote
Scorpiox Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 "Aye, we'll go and see Brutus at the palace." Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 "Haldor, I am nervous. My party messed up big time in Charis. I don't want the same mistake here. " Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 11, 2013 Author Posted October 11, 2013 The party heads to the Palace. They are greeted by a guard, who fetches Brutus. "Ave heroes. How is your reputation coming? Would you like to walk around?" The party sees the hall continues down a while. You are currently only in the front of the building. Quote
Scorpiox Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 "Haldor, I am nervous. My party messed up big time in Charis. I don't want the same mistake here. " Haldor puts an arm around the young man's shoulder. "Don't be. We're going to get this job done, and do it right. Then we'll go home and relax, you'll look back and laugh about how nervous you were. You'll do fine, we know what we're doing. Hell, if anything goes pear-shaped - which it won't - it's my fault, not yours." The party heads to the Palace. They are greeted by a guard, who fetches Brutus. "Ave heroes. How is your reputation coming? Would you like to walk around?" The party sees the hall continues down a while. You are currently only in the front of the building. "Hey Brutus, good to see you again, mate. Things are running just fine for us, the crowd seems to love it when foreign folks come up and slaughter some of their favourite fighters in cold-blood." The nord begins to walk beside Brutus along the hallway, talking as he goes. "So far we've managed to get a fair bit done. Cleared up a coupla' gangs and knocked off a prostitution ring, impressed the populace in a bloody fight, it's all good. What more d'you think it'll take before we earn Julio's trust enough to get inside?" Quote
posades Posted October 12, 2013 Posted October 12, 2013 Xander walks silently a few paces behind Haldor, as if he was not even there but listening intently. OoC: Family stuff came up, thankfully didn't miss any plot twisting stuff. Hopefully I'll be more active from here on out. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 12, 2013 Author Posted October 12, 2013 The party keeps on walking down he hall talking. Two guards in red cloaks patrol. The hallway ends, and it splits off Right and Left. Meanwhile, Brutus looks impressed. "That's great. I'm glad the people of Laticum view you favorably. You stop crime, you please the masses' favorite gory desires in the Arena. That I'm sure would make Julio respect you. However, that doesn't mean he would trust you; strangers. You need to earn his trust, somehow do something that would save Laticum. We are always faced with the danger of Barbarian Hordes. Luckily, we have mighty defenses and stone walls. But we are low on troops to keep an eye out. Stopping a siege would get you guys inside for sure." QM Note: No problem, posades. Quote

But about this breakin' up a siege thing, you got a guarantee that such a thing will be coming up soon? " He grins. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 12, 2013 Author Posted October 12, 2013 "Well, not sieges. But we often get small raids. They're a real nuisance. Guards are a little on edge, cause they never know if raiders are going to attack and set fire to a building. It's morning now, so an attack would usually come in the next few hours, when the guards have lunch break." Mizuki drinks a nostrum.

Guards are a little on edge, cause they never know if raiders are going to attack and set fire to a building. It's morning now, so an attack would usually come in the next few hours, when the guards have lunch break." Haldor laughs. "Bit unfortunate that those raiders always turn up during the lunch break - ever thought of re-arranging your mealtimes, just to be safe?" The nord checks that all of his gear is in place before continuing. "Shouldn't be too much trouble, we're experienced in this kind of thing. What size groups d'they like to turn up in, and with what kind of equipment? We dealing with pen-pushers or proper, hardy types?" Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 13, 2013 Author Posted October 13, 2013 "They range from 5-20 men per attack on each side. They usually bring just ladders because it is quick and silent. Anything else is too slow and we would have proper warning." Quote
Scorpiox Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 "So we wait here, watch the buggers run up to the wall with their little ladders... and then kick-in their heads? Sounds like a plan. I'm ready to prepare when my good friends are." Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 13, 2013 Author Posted October 13, 2013 "Right, I'll lead you to the walls. You are granted permission to walk on them." Brutus leads you up to the walls. Guards are scrambling around. "Sirs, are you ready? A barbarian horde has been spotted! This is your last chance to prepare before their ladders reach the walls." Quote
Scorpiox Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 "Their forces will break upon these walls like water upon rocks... I don't care how many there are: Let them come." Haldor stands behind the rampart with his hair whipping in the wind. He strikes an epic pose, wondering how much more exciting this moment would become if the heavens were to open with torrential rain. Quote
Tachyon Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Mizuki flips a coin as she starts waiting. "Good luck" Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 "If you have a nostrum drink it. Smelling Salts also. " Quote
Scorpiox Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 "Nah - I'm fine. Don't have enough drinks to keep swiggin' 'em at every available opportunity. Best save the hard stuff for later, you'll know when it's comin'." Haldor looks out over the ramparts to see if he can spot the barbarians. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Haldor sees nothing yet.... QM Note: I'll update later tonight, I just want posades awhile to decide if he takes any consumables. I know he wasn't available as much. Quote
