The Contact (OOC)

Olaf is obviously not going to like Roald's less-than-diplomatic observation. :)

I will wait to see what the others say before seeing if he storms off on his own.

Yeah well... We tried being tactful and diplomatic. Maybe now he can stop pretending.

Another thing I was thinking about is an NPC search party.

Noted...

@gen

Good cop, bad cop.

👍 Nice

'Good cops' need to be charming. Roll for charm. On a 7-9 he will need you to provide concrete assurances that you can make a fire.

I'd like that assurance as well. Who needs to roll to assure me? 😝

Added the roll. It's a 9...

Raynor?

Oh sorry, Norbert already started building a fire. He is relieved by Roalds interruption and is waiting to say "I told you so".

I think Norbert has enough experience to keep the fire away from the trees (if he gets it stared).

Presumable Norbert still used the trees for some cover so a quick renewal of rain will not put it out immediately.
It is very hard to set a tree on fire --even when it is not wet-- so Norbert will know he does not need to be that careful or get that far away from their protection. Avoiding roots so you can dig a bit of a fire-pit is probably the biggest factor in that distance.

yup, always :D

How confident is Albert feeling that Raynor is still with him?

That's a good question. I think the 'feeling' is not directly linked to the actual connection. The fire gives Albert a comforting feeling.
So I'd say he is confident in his own faith. It's up to Raynor to acknowledge that.

Does that help as an answer?

Sure, was just wondering since the last time we looked at this he was thinking he may have let Raynor down and his healings were not going so well.

If he has no doubts now then fine, else you can mention them when you narrate your roll. It won't affect the numbers, but might flavour the outcome.

Yes, that's true. I see it more like he knows that he's trying his best to do the right thing. Unfortunately, things didn't go the way he'd like them to go. And now he's a bit scared that Raynor is going to be unhappy with him.
But that doesn't mean he has lost faith.

Not sure if I had to wait on the 'check for glass' thing. Am I good to just keep going? Never mind

Hey look, I didn't roll double 1 at least! :)

I admit I am relieved, I did not want to have this force us to go back to the 'dungeon' because 'in-game deities' say we were wrong to leave. This means that Raynor does not mind you being out here, and we can go back when we choose.
