Vindsval steps back to a subordinate position slightly to the side and behind the knight. She is his commander on this quest, if need be he will stand in as the muscle. He stands at the ready to act on her lead.

"You need not help if that is what you choose, the path you choose if your own. But I would ask you not stand in the way of ours. We seek only to come to terms with what has disturbed and destroyed this area."

"You presume much guardian, but you know us not. I spoke the truth to you, do you answer my candidness with thinly veiled threats?"

Vindsval quickly glances back and forth between Slyph and the Entity, he cannot help but see the striking similarities between the two, but the intense contrast between them as well. Like a coin with one side polished and the other left to weather. Vindsval turns directly to the Entity and bows his head. "Greetings, I called Vindsval, Called the Half-Born. May the Wanderer reveal your path. We have travelled here to investigate the destruction of the forest outside. We are here only to gain a greater vantage. We wish only to solve the mystery effecting the area."

"errooh"

More muffled noises come from the chest. Now that they are concentrating on the sound they can tell it is speech, just hard to understand. hoof grout tear ell ee hoof oo aah

From inside the chest the party hears something like. "Hoof Grout Tare."

There is always Female Half Giant.

It would seem that the front of this tower at least is as strong as it ever was. The sign mentioned a weakness is the rear of the structure. Let us explore that direction. Vindsval flexes his shoulder to get the soreness out and proceeds around the tower to the back, looking for the "decay" mentioned by "miller."

Vindsval grins as his new friend attempts to help. "You have a stout heart my friend, perhaps I will be able to budge them." Vindsval grasps the chain in his massive right fist and pulls hard, putting his significant weight behind the action.

Calamity finds, with some relief, that the reason the dead mans hands are scaley and yellow looking is because he is wearing yellow leather gloves with tiny scales stamped into them. They are obviously part of the Falcon Brotherhood uniform. They might just take the animal symbolism a little too seriously. As she is kneeling beside the body she also hears a muffled noise, coming from inside the chest. Gloves of the Falcon Brotherhood (worth 15 gold to the right fashion forward collector.)

It may be the imagination of the heroes, but the entire parlor seemed to grow a little more dim with Keliim's final statement. The big man moves to the corner of the now emptied room. He nudges the dead body aside and attempts to open the chest. Unlike the last time the lid seems to be stuck. It is not locked as that has been smashed, but something is holding it shut. The man hears muffled sounds coming from inside the chest.

ok

Vindsval and Poe look over Slyph to Inspect the new sign.

Note: you already have him putting on armor. He cat take more than one action in a round.

I have never known anything that could strip the flesh so cleanly and leave not a mark or burn. What could have done this? Vindsval places the skull in his bags and looks over at Warlen. ​It would seem I was correct, our word to the boy would take us North.

Vindsval looks around at all the furious digging and decides he might as well help in the search. He picks a particularly large torn tree and begins digging next to it with his Shovel. Come Poe, let us aid in the search for clues to the Forest's destruction.

Muradin’s furious blows deal severe damage to all of the surviving creatures as well. The party’s mages both miss their intended targets. The two un-accosted Bats sink their fangs into Keliim and Rethinal, but this round falls in favor of our heroes. Will they keep their momentum for round 2?

No, He never equipped it.

Vindsval runs a finger over Pox's small green head. It would seem we may venture into the dark or into the keep. If you are leaning towards the west I will not dispute your decision. But make that decision quickly.

It would seem the country lad has already forgotten that everything in the Parlor was designed to test those who enter. He moves loudly across the room and begins tapping on the door. The noise makes the bats begin to stir on their perches. t would seem the country lad has already forgotten that everything in the Parlor was designed to test those who enter.
