I REALLY want to take my detour back to the keep to see if I can find anything related to my family history. However, after having time to think it through, any information or heirlooms I might find could hardly be worth the life of Ella's friend. As such, I will accept whatever course the party feels is best.
That said, I do not believe heading straight to Thunderspire is wise. We'd be running headlong into the gods know what, with little or no information on our opponents or their plans. The burial site seems to me to be the logical place to start. Our current intel only indicates they were preparing to leave. We don't know that they have yet. And, even if they have, there must be something at the sight to give us a better idea of who/what we are up against. I recommend that we stay here in Winterhaven tonight. Gear up (lots of healing potions) in the morning and head south.
If we do chose this course of action, then I plan to attempt the keep tonight, but I will do nothing to delay or jeopardize our mission. If we decide to leave immediately to go to the burial site or Thunderspire, I will accept that decision and leave whatever might await me at the keep to the fates.

We have all been friends for a long time and I would expect any of you to help me out on a personal mission of my own. I will gladly go with Ella to find her friend. I would like to go to the burial site fist to complete the quest that we are currently on. With all that happened it is possible that we might find out more info about her friend there as well. I beleive that if you friend is a good character he may have investigated the problems here as well and may have gone to the burial site. I suggest that we do that first then head to Thunderspire if that is where you still believe him to be.
ReplyDeleteI vote for the burial site then Thunderspire. Andros, if you are thinking about going to the keep at night without us, you better not. you are great at fighting with your little army but by yourself you are about as worthless as me, and that is really bad. Besides you couldn't see a hidden door if it had "Open me" written on it. I am sure Ella wouldn't mind if all of us went tonight to look for the sword or whatever your ancestors hid there in the keep. Then we just start off in the morning. Who needs sleep anyway?

ReplyDeleteI appreciate the support and the concern for my friend. Normally I would have stormed off on my own, but I have realized that this party has purpose. You have been able to make me think with my head, and not just with my heart. I think that checking out the burial site would be a wise choice, my friend Aldus was a wise and cleaver person, and if possible would have left some clues behind that only I would understand.
Just as I am reacting to a situation on a very personal level, I understand Andros' reactions as well. I would like to help him find out any information about his past, however, I feel that we have more time to deal with Andros' past than we have time to find my friend. So I ask that we seek out the bloodreavers before time and distance is so great that we will be unable to follow them.
Bemon and Ella both make good points. However, this soon after our victory at the keep is probably the best time for me to go. Any of the remaining cult memebers have likely fled, or at least wont be looking for a fight. And it is unlike any new threats will have moved in in such a short time.
ReplyDeleteAlso, while it is true that Ella's friend and our mission to protect the region are much more urgent than anything I might find, we are only a few hours from the keep right now. We do not know where our quest will lead us or when we will be back in Winterhaven. This may well be my only chance to discover what is there, if anything.
I would still ask the parties leave to make the attempt tonight. I'd also ask Bemon to accompany me because, as he pointed out, I probably find anything by myself. I believe the two of us could make the trip safely and not delay our departure. That way the rest of you will be fully rested.
Again, I will honor the will of the party. If the rest of you feel it is too risky or jeapordizes our mission, I will accept your decision. However, I still recommend that we wait until we can resupply in the morning before heading out.
I would ask that the four of you discuss it amonst yourselves, or put it to a vote, and let me know what you decide.
There is nothing really to discuss. Bemon and Andros head out and check the keep. Ella and I can get some rest or look for more cluse during the night. She and I will head out the next morning to the burial site and look around. You too can meet us there and after we see whats going on we can go straight to Thunderspire. Lets have a plan on a time and place to meet if we dont see each other. Im not a fan of splitting up the group, but sometimes it will be nexessary to do when there are multiple adventures to take care of. I will commit to just recon until the party is together. That way we wont all get into trouble and need rescuing at the same time.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget brother Gathkin. I'm assuming he will accompany you and Ella to the burial site.
