I stand up forcibly willing my body to forget about its wounds and fatigue. I cast the ritual version of Detect magic quietly chanting in the corner readying myself for the next fight.
"An excellent idea Titus, our first priority are the prisoners, once they are safe then we can complete a through search of the dungeon.
I pause for a moment contemplating the rest of the party before continuing ...
I don't know how the rest of you feel, but when i saw the body of the villager at the bottom of the crevasse, I made a silent promise to him that i would not leave him behind. When we have eliminated our enemies, would you help me recover his body so that the family might know some sense of peace?
"My dear fellow I'd expect nothing less! Let us head down then gentlemen and complete the cleansing of this viper pit. After we have our three snakes in the cells lets complete a thorough search. I'd expect that i our cyclops friend appears he should be well satiated on the meals we have already left him. We can then escort the prisoners and captives back to town. I say we should sell what's left of he armoury after we'v had our pick to the town for their use. If Eedim does the honors of escorting our new found companion I'll take the lead"
I then head off to cells following the direction we have wrought from our prisoners, including the password for the crypt.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Thank you, i dont mind leaving the one eyed beast and the undead until after the prisoners are safely away but the two guards should not be given the opportunity to take a hostage, we should rush the door when we get there i will shift now so that we can catch them unawares, if you open the door i can jump on one and Kargan can put his axe to the throat of the other.
OOC: if titus agrees i will shift into Direwolf form.
I follow closely on titus's heels.

As we pass through the room with the crevasse i will keep an eye out for the creature.
You all amke your way through the underground complex, moving through the large cavern and northwards to the store room Kryinor keeps an eye out for the one eyed creature. He spots it hiding in the cold below. It has taken a lot of trouble to conceal itself and only Kryinors sharp wolf senses would find it. It sits hunched over the corpse of one of the Bugbears it has dragged into a notch in the lower crevasse walls. It stops eating to track the progress of the party through its domain.
Moving into the store room Eedim frog marches the Thug to the wall and he indicates the location of the secret door and it is soon opened. Beyond the corridor is revealed and as told the secure wooden door to the armoury is right there and the door to the crypt is to the south. Moving through the southern door wakens the undead guardians though the still again when the password is spoken. Their cold glowing eye sockets are unnerving as their heads follow your movements within the crypt. You all ready yoruselves for a spurprise attack on the guards in the cell block. Then Titus pulls the door open suddenly and Direwolf Kryinor rushes in!
The two Thugs [R4 and R5] are surprised!
OOC: Free round of combat till they gather their sense to counter attack.
Titus moves in and a blur of short blades, stabbing and slashing a one eyed thug forcing him to back against the cell bars, as he desperately claws at the hilts of his swords.
Kryinor is a streak of fur and fury and launches himself on the second greasy haired thug,. Jaws clamping down on his shoulder but teeth failing to get through the tough leather armour.
The Thugs look to defy Titus' demand and try to fight!
You all pile into the room and attack the Thugs. Titus drops one eye while Kryinor and Kargan attack the other. When the greasy haired Thugs sees his comrade fall to the Elven ranger he drops his weapons and begs for his life.
I will push him against the back wall standing on my hind two legs, teeth bared and still growling looking him in the eye ready to tear his throat out if he makes one false move.
If there's a vacant cell i'll push the three of them into it and lock it, if not then make them face the back wall with eedim covering them with his crossbow
I will attend the cell containing the woman and her two teenage children.
"Peace be upon you friends, you are free. You have nothing more to fear from the thugs that once inhabited this place. Here have some food and drink to calm to yourselves. We have a little more work to do 'er this night, then we shall accompany you back to the village."
I then offer then some food and drink from my provisions.
"I am sure you have many questions, but I would ask that for the moment you concentrate on yourselves, We will be happy to oblige you once we have completed our sweep of this place and are out in the open again."
"My dear lady, I will ask one thing of you, Do you know the fate of your husband?"
Eedim brings the bound Thug in at crossbow point, Kargan and Kryinor herd the other with Eedim not the spare cell on the Southern side of the room.
Titus approaches the northern cell with the villagers in it.
The Woman and her two teenage children are clothed in ragged grey tunics and have rough iron collars around their necks. They look thirsty and hopeless. Their fear turns to nervous smiles and Titus introduces himself and they readily take the proffered food and drink through the bars.
The woman looks at Titus when he mentions her husband and she swallow hard and replies, "I know my dear Thel is dead, more than that I cannot say. Thank you sir, thank you all..." her voice cracks and emotions overwhelm her for the moment.
"Hush now child all will be well. Your husband did not die in vain, your village will be free and his actions against these thugs will be remembered for the courageous acts they were. You are alive and your children with you. Live your lives knowing that those tat are free must always defend their freedom against those that wish to diminish you"
"Now lets see about getting you out the cells and free from those shackles:
I will then search the ruffians and area for the keys.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
When the thugs are ushered into the cage i will move out of the room back into the crypt. Standing guard outside the door, watching the skeletons for any sudden movements.
If any should move or go to draw there weapons i will attack.
Perception: 18
If they do nothing i will wait until the others are ready to leave before attacking, when the others try to move past me i will go and stand in front of S2 and start to growl at it readying myself to lunge at it, when the others move into the room i motion with my head for them to come closer to me before pointing with my nose at the other 2 skeletons urging them to be ready
Attack: 18 Damage: 9
OOC : advantage only applies if one of the others is next to me.
OOC: I guess don if you want to tidy it up ready for introducing Dean tomorrow I will give you a run down of what Titus will do prior to heading back to the village
Titus will free the lady and her children and once settled will ask if any of the three remaining thugs brutalised them in any way and get an account of what happened to them from capture til now.
Then conduct a methodical search and use detect magic (Kryinor) throughout. Any magical items catalogued and distributed in party. same with any gems or money. Any items requiring further investigation as well. Search to include looking for any papers from glasstsaff including in the ruined mansion proper. any horses? if so used as pack animals to get the pricer weapons etc in the armoury to the village.
To the party in general - I don't know if we should try to kill the cyclops - seems he's doing his thing and only appears to eat the already dead. We definitely need to get thiels bones and would say that the monster that he can stand by while we search the cravasse and recover the bones or he can die - he's seen us just wipe out all the bugbears and humans - I don't anticipate any trouble from him.
I think we then go back to the village. I would say that we go back the outskirts, check all is well and taht the remaining thugs at the in are still there then have a couple of us go to the inn and start drinking while the other take the thugs to magistrate hand them over with the womans testimony and come meet us at the inn where we will arrest the remaining mob. hahaha easy!!!!!!!!!!
happy to play it out eitherway you guys want to go
OOC: id much rather play it out, i wont be as invested if we just skip ahead now. dean had the option to join in earlier, he chose to wait, im sure a couple of days (real time) wont hurt his enthusiasm. It hasnt been an overly fast paced game this weekend but it cant be helped sometimes.
