This is an open Rp so feel free to participate.
The sun had set and given place to the cold starry night. With blood dripping from his hands and scars, Ballcoth leads himself towards the nearest fountain. His eyes show no pity for the homeless people o Stormwind...he had long lost his once vivid humanity in exchange for knowledge on the dark arts. After washing away the black blood of his enemies he decides to drown his toughts in a mug of Ale, so he goes to the blue recluse. After sitting down at the darkest corner of the room the bartender finally finds the courage to come towards the mysterious customer... Bartender: I'm sorry sir but we do not accept demons inside this establishment!
Ballcoth:...(He slowly directs his eyes towards the bartender...the room is completely silent now) Bartender: I guess we can make an exception for your succubus, after all we have strip shows here from time to time. Ballcoth: Good choice... Bartender: So...Would you like something to drink, perhaps a cup of our finest brew? Ballcoth: I would like some Ale...Dwarvish Ale if you may! Bartender: I'm sorry but we ran out of Dwarvish Ale, you see groups of dwarvish teenagers come here everyday since they are only allowed to drink it in Ironforge when they reach majority, which i believe Is 85 years old. Ballcoth: Bring me Vodka then...and leave the bottle. As the Bartender goes away to attend his request, he glares at the people around the in wondering what could have lead them there...

Mean while, not far away from Stormwind in a dark mine, a female nightelf hunter named Siph, puts her bow away, and looks around. Only movement left in the mine is from a big lion that walks around scouting for another pray.
Siph: Come here boy, we got them all. Here's your treat, Salem
Siph hands over a piece of meat from her bags. Salem eats it happyly. Siph looks around and her sharp elven eyes senses something in a dark corner filled with boxes and crates. She quickly reaches her bow and an arrow, and is ready to shoot.
Nameless voice from the dark corner: Nooo! Don't shoot! I beg you! Siph: Who are you? Nameless voice: I'm nobody! I just want to leave this mine alive! Siph: Get out here so I can take a closer look at you!
The person in the corner takes a few steps out in the open, and of the light from the torches on the wall she can see a small green goblin, with a box in his hands.
Siph: Who are you? And what's in the box? Goblin: I'm Elmandris, I'm nobody, and what's in this box doesn't concern you! But I'll pay you for letting me go!
Elmandris takes a few steps towards Siph.
Siph: I demand on the great elven gods that you tell me what's inside that box! Elmandris: I don't care about your elven gods, but I got around 20 gold in my pocket that I'll give you if you let me go.
Elmandris steps closer towards Siph. With a sudden move he jumps towards Siph. Siph can't believe the swiftness of Elmandris, she shoots at him, but she misses. Elmandris kicks Siph's bow out of her hands, and pulls a dagger. But before he can do anything Salem jumps on him and puts his teeth in Elmandris's arm. He screams in pains!
Elmandris (Yells): Nooo, get it off me!!
Siph quickly draws her swords and with a quick swing she cuts his head off. The headless goblin drops his box and dagger on the ground. Siph, a bit shaken, takes a closer look at the dagger. It's a really fine dagger, but it pulses with an evil glow, and she decides to leave it. It's simply too evil for her to pick up. She takes a closer look at the box, and opens it slowly. Inside the box is an orb with a big orange glow. It's so beautiful! Siph can't do anything but stare at it.
Siph: So beautiful!
Salem senses the hypnotic effect of the orb and roars at Siph. She breaks the hypnose and closes the box with a swift motion.
Siph: Oh my god, what can it be?
Salem looks at her with a "let's get out of here" look.
Siph: Yeah, you are right boy. Let's get back to Stormwind.
They leave the mine together. They quickly finds the road and heads for Stormwind. A few hours later they arrive at the great gates of Stormwind. Siph heads for the Blue Recluse. If anyone can tell her what the orange orb is, it's some of the mysterious guests that passes through Stormwind. She quickly finds her way to the mage quarter. She enters the inn, while Salem find his favourite spot outside the inn in the sunlight. Siph and takes a quick look around. How odd. A demon in the inn? She heads to the bar and the big man behind is smiling at her, when he sees her.
Bartender: Siph! Long time since your last visit! Siph: Yeah, mate. I've been busy. Bartener: Yeah, I suppose you have. Allways such a busy little bee! What can I do for you. The usual herb tee? Siph: Well, a cup of your delicious tee would be nice, but can I join you in the kicthen? There's something I want to show you. Bartender: Sure, follow me.
They get into the kitchen and Siph shows the orb to her friend.
Back in the inn, Ballcoth can sense an enormous evil is presence nearby. He sees an orange glow coming from the kitchen. He gets up and starts moving towards the kitchen...

Post by Endy on May 29, 2006 23:41:40 GMT
'How stupid am I, how stupid am I' could be heard from the people walking by in the catherdral, it was coming from the one person in the place that was given a task by Jana Proudmoore herself, It had started about 60 years ago.....
Endy was a born a very health baby dwarf his parents were a loving parents but not born to do anything heroic in life, but they were people of the church, Every sunday they went like clockwork, This beileve in the light and the healing power that it can give, Gave Endy the strength to tell his parents when he was 10 years old that he wished to get some training with the Great Archbishop.
After long training and around 45 years later Endy was in at the great theremore island, he had now become a brilliant Priest and was starting to gain some experience in how to handle him self with members of all races.
Endy was looking for the good doctor on theramore when we saw a herald with a mysterious parcel heading rushing along to find Miss Proudmore. The herald was a strange man, Endy could sense some evil in him, So as worried for Miss Proudmores health, decided to investigate.
Endy came to the door, he deicided to put his ear to the door and listen in.
Proudmoore: You have found it, you have done well
Herald: I did it for the King my lady, But i can feel this evil has started to rub off on me, I have always used the dark side of magic to help the kingdom but i Cant carry this anymore it may Corrupt me!
Proudmoore: I understand, I am glad you can come to me and say the task is to much for you, This is a great threat to the King and To the whole allaince. I will find another to continue this task, you may leave warlock you have done well.
The warlock got up and left the room, as he did so endy didnt move fast enough, and the door smacked him in the face, The warlock came out and yelled
Warlock: We have found the new Member to continue this task my lady!
So endy took the task and was told to take the item to Stormwind to the great Archbishop, Not knowing what or how the item had come to Theramore, he was worried that this might be a task that could envole great evil and many perils.
The only trouble endy came across, was a small young troll warrior that was easy to remove from this world, although Endy was taught to help people he wasnt so naive to not know how to defend himself.
Endy arrived at the catherdral, and the archbishop looked at him with joy, he threw his arm around him to give him a hug, the type that a good teacher gives a student near to surpassing him.
Archbishop: Its good to see you old friend, Hows the world treating you? Endy: Good archbishop but at this moment there are much more pressing matters than catching up, I was sent here by Miss Proudmoore. She has given me a Item which im sure has great evil in it, will u look at it for me? Archbishop: Of course i will.
Endy brought the Box out of his bag, As soon as he did the Archbishop changed, shouting, yelling
Archbishop: Endy cover that up! NOW! Use your Hide of the Wild its great Powers should hold the evil! Endy did as he was told, having never seen a reaction so great, from such a mild man. Archbishop: I know this item, but not well enough to deal with it right now, I must gather my peers and we will get toghter a action plan to deal with it. I cant go into more details now but endy for the love of the Light Please take this somewhere no one will find it, Id goto the mines near by the creatures are easy to get ride of but no one who would be looking for this would think it could be hidden in such a simple place! Go Go Now Endy, Leave the item there and come back here in 1 day!
Endy moved the item into the mine, the Archbishop was right, simple enough to be easy to go through but to simple for anyone to thing a item of this power would be hidden here.
Endy left the mine, and went to his house in Stormwind where he slept for a full day, He had dreams that he would keep with him for the rest of his life, dreams about the scourge and undead warriors that where gathering in the Undead City.
Endy woke and put these dreams to the back of his head, he went back to the mine to find the item, but it wasnt there! Endy couldnt understand it! he was confused! His world was spinning! How could this have happened, he ran, and ran and ran all he could do run to the archbishop.
Before he went in the people walking by could hear Endy mubbling 'how stupid am I, How stupid am I'
As he walked in to the catherdral he could feel it, calling him the orb he knew it was nearby, he ran as fast as he could to it, he came to a pub the blue recluse, sensing the evil in this place gave Endy goosebums,
He walked in slowly, gathered his thoughts and wondered if the people in here would be willing to help him? did they know what he did not? What it seemed he just wasnt ready to know,
He sees a famailar outline of a man moving into the kitchen and follows him in there...............................

Bartender: Oh my... can this really be?
The orange glowing orb was pulsing heavily. Siph closes the box quickly to avoid her old friend from being hypnoticed.
Siph: Do you know what it is? Bartender: I'm not sure, but I might have an idea. But I hope that I'm wrong.
Siph can see that her old friend is very scared, as she looks him over.
Siph: Do you have any idea what I should do with this? Voice from behind: Well, I know excatly what to do with this.
Siph turns around quickly and draws her swords. An evil looking man is standing behind her.
Evil man: Sorry, I didn't have a chance to introduce myself. I'm Ballcoth, and please... Don't mind my succubus...

Ballcoth senses the Pulsing evil power coming from the orb, he's only tough is to posses it...to use it...to control it * That item holds great power Elf, power that you could never wield or even understand, now give it to me little one* *Over my dead body*The Elf shows nothing but anger... She whistles and a few seconds later A huge cat is standing side by side with her with his mouth open wide showing his enormous teeth towards the Warlock Bartender: Now, now there's no reason for this, let us discuss this in a more appropriate place...My basement is very cosy and no one will disturb us there. Follow me. The bartender blinks his eye at Siph *Lead the way*-Says Ballcoth «ELVISH»*Trap him* BAMsquashUPhrmmh ...... ...... ...... Ballcoth wakes up tied to a chair, his mouth tastes like steel *Now you are going to tell us what this item is, and what truly is his power* The Elf had a wicked smile on his face... «In his mind» The orb is already working...I'll tell her something so that she'll help me find the other pieces. *This is not an orb, it's a shard...a fragment of a very powerful relic* Surprised by the Warlock's easy and quick reply the Elf starts to wonder if he's telling the whole truth.., *So, what does this relic do?* Siph wonders «In his mind» I can't possibly tell her the truth... *This relic has the power to banish the undead FOREVER* Siph Is becoming more, and more intrigued...she is now imagining herself as the Elf hero that has banished the UD for good...this tough is consuming her mind... *Where are the other fragments?* *Each, fragment holds the key to the next...If you let me study this one I might be able to discover where the next fragment lies* At this point the basement door collapses and a Dwarf falls straight on the floor. *Endy??*-The night Elf seemed to know this Dwarf *Endy, what are you doing here? aren't you supposed to be in Theramoore?* The Elf the Bartender and the Dwarf gather at a corner of the room for a couple of minutes... *We need to Craft this relic, it's our hope against the Undead and it would become a major loss for the Horde...* She now speaks even lower making it more difficult to understand.... *It's my dream to banish the Undead I'm in* The Dwarf spoke with hope and heat in is eyes...´ *I'm a simple man I would do no good...But what are you going to do with him??* *Killing him would be the best option* Siph's eyes glow, she still holds the relic *NO, We need him only him can lead us in our Quest* *We will release you Warlock, and you will join us on our quest, but remember one false move and you're as good as dead and I'll make it painful* *Wouldn't expect less* Sayd Ballcoth with a smile Ballcoth gathered is alchemy tools and after a few hours analyzing the shard... *We must go to the Barrens there is a cave there that has a Runic inscription on it, if we place this orb there it should tell us where to look for the 9º piece of the relic* *The Barrens, it is then* The Dwarf's voice echoed throw the room and the 3 Strange heroes took the griphon to the Wetlands and from there to Theramoore where their Quest continues.... ((I got some ideas from this link www.wowwiki.com/Shadow_Orb keep updating the story I find it hard to write in English without repeating the same words because it's not my mother language. Loved your replies what do you think about mine? ))

The travellers pulled up in the boat at theramore, Endy was happy he enjoyed the peace and tranquility of this place. He may have been born a dwarf and he loved the mountains of Ironforge but theramore to him was his spirtiutual home.
The group was starting to get to know one anothers back story starting to form some kinda of bond, He could feel a epic adventure coming on and was certain this group would get him through it.
The group had left the evil orb back with the bartender at the blue recluse, an ever since then endy had started to feel himself. Endy knew that Ballcoth must be kept under close watch but everything that he said made Endy trust him more and more, while Siph his old friend that he met running around Deadmines after the Evil Van Cleef, was a worth compainion on any journey.
The group rode through Thereamore and off on there jounery to the barrens. Along the way they found a old pub burnt to the ground:
Endy: Guys we need to stop there might be some people we can help? Siph: Endy we are on a urgent mission have you forgotten? Ballcoth: Yea we can be swayed from it! Endy: Look we need to help these people, there injuried and i can heal them, givev me 5 minutes and ill be back out, You guys watch my back here ok? Siph:..... Ball:..... Endy: OK?
:heads nod in compliance.
Endy wanders in to the burnt building trying to remember that he is on a urgent quest, he knows that he must be fast and hopes that whilst hes gone Siph and Ballcoth just dont kill each other......

There's something wrong. I can feel it. Why isn't he back yet? Siph looks around but can only see Ballcoth who is sitting in his own thoughts on the ground, scorching the grass around him.
Siph: Please stop burning the grass, please. It wont please the mother of all living spirits. Ballcoth (grinning): Like she cares! Siph: Well, it cares to me you know. And I know that the greater spirits will support me. Ballcoth: O'rly? Well, if she really cares about us, why is there a war going on out there? Why do so many have to die? Not that I care about them... Siph: There's a reason for everything! And if our mother wants someone to die, there's a reason for it.
Ballcoth looks at Siph, then jumps up and fires a shadowbolt at a bird flying by.
Siph: Now stop it!! Ballcoth: Now tell me... What was the purpose of that birdies life? Siph: Well, I can't tell, but I'm sure our mother had a purpose. Ballcoth: You elves and your fucking gods. Siph: Don't swear about our gods! Ballcoth: To hell with your gods!
Siph draws her weapons
Siph: Don't ever treaten our religion! The elves will rule again some time! And I'm not scared of demostrating it.
Ballcoth eyes fires up.
Ballcoth: Ahh... you want to duel, eh?!
Siph aims her bow and poins it at Ballcoth.
Siph: You will feel sorry for this
Endy (yells): Guys! Stop fooling around!! Lay down your weapons and come and take a look at this!!
Siph and Ballcoth: WHAT?!
Endy (yells): I found something. Come take a look at this!! Quick!!
Siph and Ballcoth takes a quick look at each other, but decides to listen to Endy. Siph puts her weapons away and follows Ballcoth towards Endy's voice, but she is keeping a distance to Ballcoth, just to be sure.
They are both wondering what Endy has found, while they go towards the burnt inn...

The pub, or what was left of it, was covered by ashes and the air smelled like burnt flesh, nothing that Ballcoth wasn't used to. There were many corpses laying on the floor, most of them were so burnt that when touched would turn to ashes. Endy was chocked by this cruelty, but he managed to put himself together and say a few prayers for the dead. Siph just stood at the entrance watching, it wasn't like the burnt corpses didn't affect her but Ballcoth's arrogance and disrespect towards the Old Gods made her Mad. While Endy was praying and giving his blessings, Ballcoth couldn't stop looking at a strange set of stones laying on the floor. Ballcoth walked towards the center of the pub and knelled.
Ballcoth: Guys, theses stones have runic inscriptions on them, my guess is that the fire came from here. Siph: Says the all knowing corrupted Human, what would a warlock know about runes. Ballcoth: What I meant is that the fire came from within the runes, and I know this because I was a mage once and the archmages used these runes to teach us how to create fire out of them. Endy: You were a disciple of the magi order? Wow that's a surprise! Ballcoth: Well sort of, it's a long story maybe some oth... Siph: like anyone cares, so shall we get going? Ballcoth: Yes there's little more that we can do here. Endy: Guys these people were killed and all you can say is "let's get going?", I mean shouldn't we at least try to find the people responsible for this?
Ballcoth looked at Endy with pity, he was starting to feel his humanity trough this noble Dwarf. Siph said something in Elvish and the party left the pub in silence...

Looking around at the burnt bodies on the ground, he glance from left to right he needed something, something to show to the group to make them want to become envoled in this inn, to help be able to give there families the answer of who what and how.
*glances from left to right*
Nothing! for the love of the almighty NOTHING?
Siph: Endy we need to go,if the gods let this happen it happened for a reason. Endy: Siph your gods are not mine, I think we need to help these people and there families in someway, give them some form of answers. Ball: NO we are straying from the quest! This is urgent! Siph: For once i agree with the Shadowweaver Endy picks up the runes that seemed to be the source of the Fire puts them in his bag and leaves the pub. Endy: I will carry these and have alook at them at a latter date, maybe they will come in handy, or maybe they will show me a way to solve the riddle of the burnt inn who knows lets ride to the barrens.
(Short post i know, but i wanta keep the runes for a small idea latter a inventory of stuff we can call on at a later date)

The Burning Sun scorching the sky, the dry cracked soil, the sound of Kodo stomps and the intense orange glow on the horizon, everything warned us that we had arrived to the Barrens.
Endy: Guys, we are now behind enemy lines, proceed with EXTREME caution; we should avoid any unecessary confrontat...
Endy hadn't finished his sentence when a Tauren Guard came out of nowhere screaming like a mad cow.
Tauren Guard: Moooo, Moooooooo (cow sound efects)
Siph aimed, and shot at his head but the arrow hitted his neck leaving him bleeding to death. Endy was about to heal the Tauren, when Ballcoth and Siph looked at each other.
««There was no feeling in their eyes»»
Knowing that the other Taurens would soon come to investigate, they started to attack the nearby Tauren Outpost. There were 4 guards guarding it, 2 of them were imideatly tanked by Salem and Thannar (Ballcoth's Voidwalker). The two remaining guards were quick to charge at them, Ballcoth used Deathcoil, Fear, Curse of Shadow, spammed two Shadowbolts and Imolated the Tauren until he died. Meanwhile Siph managed to defend herself at melee range, but she was fighting the most experienced Tauren of the Clan and Ballcoth decided to help her. Together they killed the Tauren chief while Thannar broke the skull of his enemy and then came back to his Master. Salem wasn't attacking at all he was just doging the Tauren's attacks, and making sure he didn't attack Siph, she sneak back the Tauren, made a quick move with her polearm and...
Endy: Stop! What the Hell are you doing «« The dwarf was carring the bandaged Tauren on his back»»
Siph completed her move but instead of killing him she knocked him down, and after tieing him up she said.
Siph: That Tauren you'r carring was patroling this area, if he didn't come back to report they would surely send someone to search for him, and we can't afford having patrols on our tail. Endy: Really! And what do you think Ogrimmar will do when this camp doesn't report. Ballcoth: Good point Siph: Let's get the hell out of here Endy: Wait, what do we do with these two?
««Ballcoth looks at Siph but she's staring at Endy»»
Endy: We can't kill them, not like this! Ballcoth: I can make it painless, well sort of. Siph: Taking them to Theramoore would take to lo...
The earth starts to tremor and 2 earth elementals rise from the ground at charge at Endy, like if he had something they wanted.
Siph: I'll do the left you two take care of the right. Ballcoth: No need
« Ballcoth banishes the right one and the party nukes the left»
After 2 minutes fighting...
Ballcoth: Dam these guys are hard...Banish expired «he yelled»
Endy turns to the no longer banished elemental and says. "Incarnus Flamare" and a huge column of firte comes from the skies raising the threatening elemental to the ground.
««Ballcoth had never seen Endy showing his power before, he was impressed, he would now respect his wisdom and power even more»»
Ballcoth: The Taurens are no longer here. Siph: What, where, How? Endy: I'm sure there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for this. Ballcoth: I'm sure there is an explanation, about the "reasonable" part I doubt it Endy: let's get going, it's north right Ballcoth? Ballcoth: Tha's what I could figure out, a cave north in the Barrens.
The party leaves quietly but Siph and Salem stare at some bushes, «There was somebody there» She tought.
Endy: Siph, are you coming? Siph: Yes i'll be right there.
((My idea is that there is/are more people looking for the orbs - Alliance and/or Horde - I have an idea about how to explore this, but I'm not greedy so feel free to add. Hope you enjoyed my piece as i've enjoyed yours - Spih and Endy - and for the non participants Hope you enjoyed it too, give us some ideas by posting them on the other thread so that we can make this even more interesting.))

Post by Siph on Jun 9, 2006 15:05:14 GMT
So thirsty! Knew I should've brought more water.
Endy: Siph? Anything wrong? You look very bad. Siph: It's just this hot desert that kills me. Not the perfect enviroment for elves I must admit. Ballcoth: Here, take some of my water
Ballcoth hands over some water for Siph who looks at him, but quickly grabs the water and starts to drink.
Ballcoth: You know that Warlocks drink the poison from Scorpions, right?!
Siph spits the water out in shock.
Endy and Ballcoth laughs at her.
Ballcoth (grinning): Oh, hehe... I forgot to mention that I only drink normal water Siph: You guys are NOT funny!
Siph starts to drink again. Endy has stopped. He is trying to see what's in the horizon. But it's hard to see that far.
Endy: Siph, what does you eleven eyes see out there? Right in front of us Siph: It's an oasis. Endy: Anything else? Siph: Hard to see, but I think there's a mountain further back. Ballcoth: Maybe that's where the cave with the runic inscriptions is. Endy: Well, let's go there and investigate.
Siph hands Ballcoth the water.
Siph: Thanks Ballcoth: Your welcome
As they get closer to the oasis Siph feels danger. Well, she had sensed it all the way back from the burnt inn, but didn't think about it because of Ballcoths presence. But now she isn't so sure that it's him anymore. There might be something else out there. Siph stops.
Siph: Guys! I have to tell you something. I got a feeling. Ballcoth: Yeah, somebody is watching us!
Siph looks weird at Ballcoth.
Siph: You feel it too? Ballcoth: Aye! Endy: From where? There's nothing but desert out here. If someone was following us we would see them! Siph: Ever heard of rogues, Endy? Endy: Aye, but they are a myth! Noone can turn invisible but great wizards, and great wizards are almost extinct or corrupted by the way! Ballcoth: Well, I don't think it's a rogue. They do exist Endy, but this one is not a rogue! Siph: But where is he? Ballcoth: Use your elven eyes, Siph. I bet you can see him, if you just wanted to!
Siph looking at Ballcoth to see if he yet again is mocking her, but it seems that he actually means it. She looks around. Focusing. Did something just move over by that pile of stones? She tries harder to see what it is.
Siph: Claws... Endy: Eh? Siph: I see footprints... but they have a shape of claws, like a panthers or something. Ballcoth: Any suggestions? Siph: Stay here!
Siph shadowmelds and dissapears from the others view.
Endy: Siph? Ballcoth: Ah, the old elven dissapearing trick.
Some minutes is going and nothing happens. Ballcoth is losing his patience. And is about to yell something to Siph when he feels a poke in his back and something roars at him. Ballcoth jumps in the air.
Ballcoth (shocked): What the.....
Siph is standing behind him and laughing madly at him and next to her is there a big black cat.
Ballcoth: Not funny, sister! Got you another pet? Endy: Siph stop fooling around, what did you find out?! Siph: haha, well this is not another pet. I think this cat has a will of it's own.
The cat starts to transform into an elf.
Siph: I bring you Mustski! Mustski: Heya! How'ya doing?! Ballcoth: Oh my. Not another elf... Endy: Who is that?! Siph: My old friend from way back. We grew up together. He is a master in feral combat. Mustski: Aye! Sorry about the sneaking around, but wanted to see how long would go before you would find out somebody was following you. Endy: How long have you been following us? Mustski: Since Theramore. Saw Siph and wanted to surprise her. But then saw you guys, and thought she might be in some kind of trouble. You see, I know this girl pretty good! And trouble comes quick when she is around! Siph (blushes): Oh, stop it! Mustski: Ah, the truth is hard to hear, aye?! Oh well, I transformed into a cat and stealthed after you guys. I quickly found out you where on some kind of quest together, so thought that I would continue stalk you, to see if you belived your senses. And you didn't until now! Siph: Well, there's an explanation for... Mustski: Always have trust in your party members, I say. If you can't put your life in their hands, you wont succeed on your quest! At least that's what my old papa said. But he was wise. More wiser than me! Endy: This all sounds very cool, but shouldn't we be moving now? Ballcoth: Aye, I agree. We have wasted enough time today! Mustski: Oh well. Seems like your friends are in some kind of hurry. If you are ready, let's move on. You can fill me in on the details while we walk.
Mustskis words got Siph minds going. Maybe she should just leave the hostility towards Ballcoth and maybe focus a bit on their quest. Ballcoth wondered what the two elfs were up to. Would it mean anything that there were two elfs now? But he pushed the thoughts away. He felt that something dangerous would be right ahead of them. Endys thoughts kept going back to the runes he found in the inn. What were they and what was the use of them. Mustski was just happy to be on another dangerous mission.
The four heroes reaches the oasis and steps under the shadows of the trees, and are happy finally to get away from the sun. They are looking inside a big an beautiful oasis, with a big lake, and alot of mushrooms. They run to the lake to fill their water supplies. Mustski looks closer at the mushrooms. Then takes a big bite!
Mustski: Fill your bags guys! These mushrooms are safe to eat, and uuhmm... they are tasty!!
Male voice: Drop your weapons! You are surrounded!

Endy looks left he looks right, him and ballcloth are alone with 8 guards. He cries a little inside, hes confused and scared his supposed friend in siph has just run off with out him and the new member of the group mustski has left them as well, Endy looks at ball, he is worried endy can sense fear in people and always feels the need to ward it away.
All the guards are speaking in orcish apart from one funnier looking guard he steps foward
Guard: You Two are in the land of the Horde what are u doing here? Well speak now or i shall be forced to.....help me......kill you both. Endy turns to ball with a surprised look on his face Guard: The Guards here *turns and points at the 7 orc guards* Will not be able to hear me they dont speak common but i must pretend to be asking you questions! Endy: What happened to you? Guard: I was a human captured by the orcs not so long ago they ran tests on me! Tried to tell me that there magic would 'fix me' so they said! I can speak there language as well but I need help to get out of here The guard turns to the orcs: Zug Zug Lok Kar Thrall Endy: The 3 off us wont be able to help you here we are outnumbered and overpowered! Ball: Endy we can take em ill just call upon my..... Endy: NO BALL, dont bite off more than the 3 of us can chew we need to escape. Guard: What are you 2 doing out here? Is there no way u can help?
As soon as the guard had finished, the sound of a horn went off and 4 trees Sprang to life! They started to attack the guards. Mustski: For Cenarious! Siph: For the Allaince!
The battle was long The trees were removed rather quickly from the battle by the orcs, The 4 heros stood in battle back to back, Swords drawn, Spells firing off everywhere. Siph was like a woman on a mission, so much so she didnt notic the orc guard charging at her with his last few breaths Ball: SIPH DOWN NOW!
A massive Shadowball came flying past siph's head as she dropped to the ground. Smacked the Orc in the head and knocked him down
With 3 guards dead and the party of heros tiring, Endy was feeling himself being drained of his energy his mana some people would say. The battle was still raging on with Mustski using his druid powers to hold the attack in his bear form. Endy: I cant heal for much longer we need to finish this Must: Siph take the Front line NOW! Siph using 5 or 6 arrows brought all the orcs on to him and with endy's last bit of energy he sheilds Siph so he could hold the attack Must: Elf Goddess Hear my prayer Give Endy the Energy he needs for us to win this battle! Endy was struck my a bolt of lighning And all at once his energy was being restored to him, he felt wonderful more powerful than before. Siph needed help and Must shapeshifted back into bear form and held the orcs. Endy was now at full energ and he gathered all his might and summon a Holy Fire to rain on the Orcs! Endy: Leave This Plain! I hope you can Run Your tests on poor people In the Next Life!
Two orc guards fell, with only 1 left the group will still all standing the 4 of em side by side, Taking the last guard would be easy.
He charged at the Human disfgured guard and with one move had removed his head Guard: At last free from this curs...........
The Orc guard was in the throws of bloodlust seeing his orc guards fall has made him real angry. Ball: Siph Distract him one moment and ill finish him Siph: Ok one moment
Siph let out 4 mighty arrows that nearly knock the poor orc guard out cold he was dazzled and couldnt move Ballcloth Let the guard have it, He went up in flames.
The battle was over and all off the group just fell to the ground they wanted to sleep for 1000 years but they new they must move on...................

Amber sunlight shines between the palm leaves of the now stationary trees above, the surface of the water glints of sundown with every ripple. Siph, Endy and Mustski are inspecting Ballcloth's wounds. Ballcloth: I, I don't know when I got struck but atleast I'm with the right people for it to happen...ey endy? Endy mutters some words and the peirced skin on Ballcloths arm slide together and seal tightly. A loud but high pitched voice breaks into song.. 'Ooooooh I may look awefully purdy and smell like roses and rum! But given a stick infront of a foe, I'll squash 'im with my old thumb!!' Endy: What the... Siph: It's coming from above the cavern Mustski: I'll check it out, I'll call you if I need help Group In unison: Aye
Mustski springs into catform and heads off to the side of the cavern entrance and begins to climb the reeds attached to the wall. Swinging from the hillside reed, he lands on the cavern entrance roof and smiles back at the group. They're huddled beside the lake, salem going for a paddle with Siph throwing some chunks of meat in for him to catch in his mouth. Mustski spots the entrance to where the singing came from, an orange glow seeps out of it and a crackle of fire can be audible within.
'Heey ho stock and stone, it's what keeps the heat in, hey ho a cave you know, for people to always meet in!' Mustski pokes his head round the cave entrance and adjusts his eyes to make out what he can see.. 'Pink...' A rather well dressed, well pruned pink haired gnome looks up from the cave floor startled, he jumps onto his feet but accidently steps into his logfire, setting his purple robe on fire.
'EEEEEEEeeeeeh' The gnome runs out the cave entrance and leaps off the edge of the cavern roof and lands rather awkwardly onto his shoulder, sending him tumbling down the lake enbankment and into the lake.
Ballcloth: BLIMEY! What the bloody hells that? Salem drags the gnome onto land and Siph inspects the gnomes robe, revealing a name tag underneath the collar..
'Short....Shortbread'
