Gunnar takes a long pull on the flask and hands it back to Ryyrik. "Thanks, my friend. NOW I'm ready."

Phineas quietly smiles to himself. It seems as if the team is back to its old self; perhaps the recent tussle took the edge off their unique situation? He ponders the importance of violence in Dwarven culture as the team readies itself for the next leg of the journey.

"I move when you do," Baern says, speaking to the group rather than a particular person.

Ulfren sighs, as it seems nobody really went to inspect the dead frost orc. He steps out of the ropes that pull the sled and walks over to the corpse. However, Ulfren only does the bare minimum of poking the corpse with the knob of his axe to see what can be found.

Phineas comes up alongside Gunnar and Ulfren.
"Would you like some assistance? The ice and wind sometimes sees what our eyes cannot."

Gunnar and Ulfren both find a giant club.
Phineas finds a pack barely attached to some tattered cloth on the giants back. In the pack are some very rotten and decayed rations, a letter in orcish and 6 gold pieces.

Phineas takes the gold and the letter.
"Hmm, a communiqué was hidden among the creature's old victuals. And it reads, ahem:"

Ulfren hmphs. "I guess the thing can read," he says flatly, remembering its behavior prior to combat. He goes back to the sled to carry whatever cargo the team sees fit to load, and waits for the group to move on.

"Crag, I will hunt you down and murder you and your family when I get done here. See distant lands, meet interesting people you said. It will pay for herbalist school and you can stay at peace, you'll probably only cook or be doing something mundane like that you said. I have had to kill scores of these humans to keep the slave masters happy. I will find you!"

"Well, I'm not sure what that means but I'll file it away for future reference. And the gold should be put towards our unit's operations budget. If there are no objections, I'd like to suggest any unused funds liberated from the enemy be returned to this kingdom for rebuilding purposes and as a gesture of good faith from the King Under the Mountain."
Phineas plants the moldy rations in the ground for the worms to eat.

"Sounds like we did this 'Crag' guy a favor." Ryyrik chuckles. "I couldn't think of a better use for our unused gold, besides some more ale."
May 17, 2017 6:32 am
"I do believe that falls under the scope of the operations budget, Ryyrik. Perhaps we should move on; I suspect there are taverns awaiting liberation as we speak."

Then let's git the dern show on the road! exclaims Billy. He attaches a strap to his dulcimer and begins playing a little traveling music.

Traveling down the road, you converge with another road.
The surrounding area is spotted with houses, some burnt, some intact. The keep is off in the distance, but looks like it can be reached late evening. The buildings become more numerous, a many of them destroyed. A shoulder high wall is in the distance. It looks as if the road went through a gate and by two small buildings. The once ornate cobblestone wall is destroyed for most of the side, apparently the army came through here. People are milling about and look confused and misplaced.
Passing the wall reveals carnage the likes most have never seen. Bodies lay everywhere, torn in pieces and some have been reduced to pudding. Water pools and drips from the battlefield, the ramparts, siege engines, everything. The keep is on the other side of this charnel pit.

Ulfren plods along, pulling the sled. He says nothing to any of the people milling about, at least as far as starting the conversation. The barbarian has his objective in sight now and decides the best course is straight.

Gunnar reads Ulfren's intention and nods his approval. Best get to the Keep without any further distractions.
