The agents had boarded up every opening and slept in shifts. But Groversville's horrors had not coming calling since Oakley's death. Morning finally broke. Guppy perked up. "I think I hear vehicles!" They moved one of the desks out of the way of the office window. Sunlight streamed through. At the bottom of Skyline Road, a large vehicle drove into view, and the sound of its laboring engine grew louder. There were...

Once introductions were completed, Thunder checked again at the insignia on the Dragonborn’s muscular chest. “That is a symbol of Bahamut, correct?” he queried. “Yes,” she replied simply. “The Platinum Dragon is both my patron and my ideal. I strive each day to live up to the standards Bahamut sets for me – to battle against evil, to prevail, and to help others do the...

Jo led them down a main road into the town. The road here too was cobbled and well-maintained. Shops crowded for space along the edges of it. They were diverse without the appearance of shabbiness. All of them were well-built. Dorin and Jo took no notice of them.

“They are not coming back,” said Calder, the older of the two men, as they peered out warily at the bridge across the chasm. They had rested warily where they had been left near the gate to the Horned Hold but once several hours had passed they had returned to the smithy from which the six companions had departed. “We should have more faith,” said the matronly woman Bessa who had seen more than sixty winters and seen many a warrior and...

Quote: Originally Posted by Baron Opal I thought that they were going to do a variation of the bag of holding / portable hole trick. That's what I thought first, except I'd never heard of it being done that way. Beat him and take his stuff sounds right though. I'm also wondering where the gates go, and what sorts of raids they could pull off...
