"wel, it certainly wasn't the one we encountered. He was a friggin' PSION!!" said Tem, exasperated.

And so Farnham spoke, saying: "Hey, he's awake. Marcus, you were druged, but everything's gonna be OK. We're nearly at the Targos gates, and there's a herbalist that lives at Targos. He can help you fell better. Now lay still, please."

_________________

"Musta been that...what was it again? Oh yeah, the squiddly man. I'll try to keep still." Marcus couldn't help but move his clawed fingers around like tentacles, and flicking his tongue in & out.

"I'm tied to a horse! Ha ha...hahahaha..."

Drek was very worried at the mention of a Drow. "I don't like this at all," he said. "If the Drow are getting aggressive, it may not be long until they move on Skara Brae or Suldeneselar."

_________________

"Well, we'll have to stop them before they get the chance to move." Xander said, stepping forward. "I saw some Drows just north of here when I was running from th-" Xander stopped. "Uhh...that's not important. Anyways, I say we camp out for tonight and then attack those drows if they are still there." he said. "Who's with me?"

Acedia could see the gates. A matter of yards up the road. o-o

"I hope he hasn't suffered permanent damage," she remarked inwardly to herself.

The Gnomes wriggled around in the air under Tem's mind-control.

"Please put us down, sir! We mean no harm!"

_________________

Xander grabbed the gnome and set him down. "Next time you take orders from a Drow, expect the worst. Your friends should regain conciousness in a little while." Xander told the gnome.

The gnome ran off.

"Now, who's with me?" he said once again.

"I!" said Tem, raising his hand."Now, let's set up camp. Micheal! Fire please."

The gates were open, but Farnham and Acedia had to slow down becasue of a donkey pulling a hay cart that was coming out from the gates. They let it pass. Farnham asked one of the guards: "Where might I find the herbalist?"

The guard replied: "His shop is at the town square, next to the blacksmith"

Farnham thanked the guard, and then proceded through the gates.

Meanwhile, back where everyone was setting up camp, Xander was with a few others scouting for good firewood for the fire.

"You think that in an area filled with trees there'd be tons of good firewood.." he said to himself. "I bet those drows took all the good wood!" he yelled to the others.

Suddenly, they all heard a huge crash. Perahps it was a fallen tree - perhaps it was a drow. Whatever it was, Xander as heading towards it.

_________________

Tem wa back at camp. He was trying to light the wood with his sheer force of thought, but it of course wasn't working"Someone want to play fire,water,grue with me?" he said.

Meanwhile....

Xander approached the place where he thought he heard the noisecome from. He swiftly ran around, hiding behind trees and dodging things that weeren't coming at him. He gave a signal to his other team-mates to be silent here.

He then fell down and made a really loud noise.

"I'm okay!" he whispered.

Marcus drifted in & out of sleep, his head pounding. It was hard for him to form words. "Ha-da. Hadadada. Pbbbbbbbbbbpbpbpb. Arrrlgggblblblbl."

The lizzardman looked up at Farnham. "Are we...there yet?

_________________

Farnham could see the town square now, and he looked around for the blacksmith shop... ah, there it is, and that must be the herbalist shop next to it.

"Acedia, see if the Herbalist is in. I'll get Marcus off the horse and join you inside."

[OOC: Is it OK if I play as Farnham for a quick sec?]

Farnham untied Marcus from his horse, lifted him off, & got him on his feet. Marcus could hardly stand up or keep his eyes open. Saliva dribbled from his mouth.

"Look at you, Marcus!" Farnham lifted Marcus's eyes open with his fingers. That must have been some powerful tea."

"I....I'm jjjj...just tttired. Hard day of rrrrruuuuunniningingg. Looking for the towowowowown."

"Well that was ironic." said Michael quietly.

Michael prepared for battle, in case the noise was caused by something dangerous.

<OOC: Yes I am captain obvious>

<OOC: He's talking about what is going on at the site where the gnomes attacked - we were hunting for food and we heard a really loud noise, possibly a drow.>

"You can be quiet."Xander said to Micheal. "This could be a very dangerous drow and we need to be really quiet."

"You do know that for someone who is trying to get everyone to be quiet, you talk a lot." a booming voice said.

Xander aimed his weapon but it was no use. A huge blast hit his chest and he fell back into the river.

<THAT is the Drow.>

Acedia followed Farnham until they reached the town square, at which point she dismounted her horse. The beast was tired - it wouldn't run off, and obviously was no worthwhile target for some kind of miscreant looking to get away quickly. The horse simply watched its rider through the door of the herbalist's shop.

Acedia smiled slightly and nodded a passing greeting to a woman exiting the herbalist's shop. The woman had looked at Acedia's essentially ruined skirts with disdain, but gave a nervous smile and nod in return, out of courtesy.

Walking up to the nondescript counter, behind which was absolutely nobody, Acedia took a brief look at the myriad of vials and pouches, extracts, cordials, jars, all manner of things to cure what ailed you - from a simple bump on the head to leprosy, should the claims attached to the shelves be true. There was even a section that claimed to "cure" pregnancy - she shuddered to think exactly how those elixirs worked.

{}{}{: There's your daily Extremely Gross Mental Image. :}{}{}

Marcus looked around at all the vials in the shop. "Ooo...pretty colors...like the ones I saw!" He tried to grab a couple in his claw, but Farnham pulled him back.

"No no no, Marcus. We need to get you some Purple Roses, and fast."

_________________

At the Herbalist's shop, Farnham rang the little silver bell that was on the counter. This was answered with a voice from the back room that said: "I'll be with you in a moment."
Farnham replied: "If you could hurry, sir. Our friend has been poisoned and we need an antidote."
A man wearing a white apron over merchant's clothes rushed in from the back room: "Goodness me, why didn't you say so. Which one is it?"
Farnham said: "Him" pointing at Marcus.
The Herbalist noded and said: "And what did he take?"
Farnham said "Gnomish Tea."
The Herbalist nodded grimly "Oh my... Gnomish Tea in a lizzardman... let me see..." The Herbalist got a ladder and climbed up to to reach the high shelfs. He came down with a wooden box that had a number of different pouches and packages in it, as well as an empty glass vial: "I can mix up the antidote for you now, but you'll have to pay in advance. It's fifteen gold please.
Farnham reached into his purse and produced fifteen gold peices. He put them on the counter: "Alright, there's your money, but I wanna see that the cure works before you pocket it."
The Herbalist nodded: "Fair enough, fair enough. Give me a minute, I have to mix the reagents."

The Herbalist went into the back room again. A pounding noise could be heard, then a grinding noise could be heard, then a bubbling noise, then a swishing noise, and finally the sounds of liquid being poured into containers. The Herbalist emerged from the back room with a glass vial that contained a swirling purple liquid caped with a cork. He walked up to Marcus, took the cork out of the vial and said: "Here, drink this. You'll feel better, I promise."

Meanwhile, back at the camp, the sound a blast hitting Xander roused the party from what they were doing.
"That sounds like an explosion!" Said Maxwell. He lit a torch (as it was starting to get dark) and drew his sword. "I think Xander and Micheal are over there. They could be in trouble. Let's go see." Maxwell headed off in the direction the blast noise came from.

Drek drew and loaded his bow and followed Maxwell to the noise.

Acedia simply watched the proceedings with interest and concern, unconsciously - if very slightly - shifting her weight from one foot to the other. Just a habit.

<Hey guys I'm back, welcome to The Noid>
Prosper woke up. He was in a small room, most likely a part of a cave, tied tightly to a stalagmite. A little to the left of him, he could see a prisoner of very small stature,most likely a gnome, dwarf or other short hafling breed, in the same predicament as he was.
There really was nothing else to do, so he decided to try to converse with his cell mate, while he figgured out how to escape.
"Hello, we seem to be in the same predicament." he said.
The stranger lifted his face, witch was badly swolen and bruised, and seemed to notice his visitor for the first time.
<For anyone wondering I've been capured by accident because of a young gnomish mage's mistake while trying to teleport the ring to the drow. I am in a cave near the drow camp that Xander saw. Ialso have a question for Sarge, do I get to controll the NPC I'm talking to because I'm interacting with it, or is that a GM power only?>

Marcus waddled over to the Herbalist.

The bruised prisoner said: "Aye lad, we're prisoners you and I. My name is Shamus Kaeirin, of the Clan Kaeirin. As I'm sure you've noticed by now, I am a Dwarf. You are a Human child, are you not?"
