Time Passage on the River
This river will lead you straight (almost) to Sloobludop. It would be an 8 day rafting trip followed by 2 days of hiking through more Underdark. It's not all Faerzress infused, though a good amount of it is.
You guys have a few choices here, the following 3 styles as well as 3 routes:
Styles -
1) Hand Wave the Trip - We'll say you guys went on with no major issues.
2) Hand Wave Part of the Trip - We hand wave the daily activity but you guys vote each day by day how far you travel (we sail for 2 days and then do an RP stop).
3) Full RP - As we've done so far, we play out every day.
Routes -
1) River route (8 days sailing, 2 days land)
2) Mixed route (1-8 days sailing, 3-15 days land) - Land travel is slower than sailing.
3) Land route (less than 2 days sailing, 15-18 days land)
Vote on both sections.

Sort of. No herbs or anything, but you can easily get fresh water (you're on it) on demand. You can also have Dustin do mage hand fishing for food.Dec 27, 2016 7:04 pm

I'm all for taking the river as far as we can and hand waving some but not all of the trip.

I decided to put this here so it didn't interrupt the flow of the game.In his mind Eldrith was more then just his pupil, she was a warrior in her own right, and for Cemos that means she deserves a warriors death rights. After the pyre is set and the body placed atop it, Cemos sets her shield and hammer ceremoniously next to it. he asks his companions to gather around so he can begin.
It seems like not to long ago I found myself locked in a cage awaiting my death or perhaps something worse to befall me. Most of us here remember those days and the journey that would come after, that would ultimately lead us to this place. And it was in that cage that I meat a young dwarf girl named Eldrith. I know she felt the same way I do when I say that I could have never in my wildest dreams imagined I would find myself traveling with such a diverse group of people such as yourselves. now during our travels we have seen people come and go and all the while we have tried to do right by those we have come across. Not because that's what we were told to do or because we were going to make a lot of money to do it that way... or for any other reason other then it was the right thing to do. That's what Eldrith believed in and that's what good people do.... the right thing for no other reason then being a good person. And for all of us to come together from different races and backgrounds and choose to do the right thing even if that means putting ourselves in danger... then I can say I am truly blessed and so was she.
Cemos pulls his mace from his side and ignites the flame. looking to the group he says -
We all here stand in remembrance of those that have fallen, we stand for those that have laid down their lives for what is right! And we stand for those that can no longer stand for themselves. We will always remember the sacrifice made here today, and stand ready for all the ones yet to be made.
Cemos lowers the mace to light the pyre, he then kneels clutching his holy symbol and begins to pray in dwarven.
Dwarven prayer translated:
Dumathoin... God of the Mountain, Great Father of the Forge and keeper of the Honored Dead. I commit to you the body of your daughter Eldrith that lays here slain. She fought bravely and brought honor to her Clan. See her safely to the other side so that she may find her place in the great hall of her ancestors. Open the gates of your Great Mountain Fortress and welcome her home. Bring her peace by reassuring her that we will carry on and that I shall keep my promise and see her hammer and shield brought home to her family. Bless me with your forgiveness for I failed to protect one of your children. And give me the strength to see the tasks you have laid before us done.
he wipes the tears from his eyes and looks up to see another spectral form.

Given that we're down to three active players, I was wondering if you all wanted me to try recruiting another one or two adventurers into the fold (or if you had friends that have been looking to get into games here that would want to join in).
Thoughts?

I think we have kinda hit a speed bump as of late and the action is being affected by it. The player attrition has been real bad and it's affecting the story. We need like 2 more committed players to help Drive the storyline onward so it's not just the same 3 ppl trudging along.

Life has been a bitch, I feel I'm not the only one who is experiencing it lately. I do agree with Bad_forest_monkey that probably bringing in two committed players would make things more lively so when life kills time for one or two of us the game keeps going and we can have more dynamic talks. Overall I think one or two more players could make a lot of difference^^

Sorry about that on my part. I've been pretty busy at work lately, but it's letting up. I agree with an additional player or two.
