Bielsi curses his stubby, dwarven legs. Even after the scorpion rushed forward and cut down one of his companions, it was still so far away.

He tosses his crossbow aside, knowing the battle would likely be over by the time he reloaded it. He pulls out his scythe, instead and hurries toward the beast as best he can.

It is pretty beat up, I bet a blast of good old cleansing fire would finish it off. Shaking away the brief thoughts of insanity, Ren withdraws from the scorpion and lets his team mates deal get close an personal. Teammates with armor. Teammates with shields.

Full action withdraw. I'm assuming that if it had reach, it would have taken its AoO on Kim.

I'm gonna wave my GM stick around here and wait for other PCs to do their actions before you do take that AoO... hold your withdraw in check for now and allow Umberto to do his thing please. Thank you.

Finally drawing her sword, Kim takes a 5' step to the Scorpion, and hopes to draw its attention with a pretty powerful swing.

Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

And, if she didn't hit, at least draw its attention away from it attacking anyone else.

Yuukyou breaths deep and points at the scorpion again.

Ray: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

However, it sputters a few inches from his hands. He swears in annoyance, his voice coming out in a growl of reverberating sound.

Oh come one... stupid spells... ugh, affecting physical matter is so much harder than ripping apart the mind.

Bielsi is still chugging along to get into the fight. He's still not close enough to use his scythe but he does reach out with his mind, picking up a nearby rock and flinging it at the scorpion with tremendous speed.

Telekinetic Projectile minus firing into melee: 1d20 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (3) + 1 - 4 = 0
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

And it goes terribly astray.

Umberto counts his blessings for dodging the giant scorpions blows. He resolves to finish it off.

Umberto's mace lands squarely on top of the giant scorpion's head and all can hear a sickening 'CRACK!'. The monster slumps to the sands and lies motionless. [dying... two of its left legs twitching...]

COMBAT OVER!

The young Aayef falls to his knees, finally giving way to exhaustion and pain. He looks at you all. "...thank you all! whoever you are... I'm guessing mother sent you yes?"

He takes a long drink from his waterskin, listening to you all.

Bielsi finally makes it to the beast as it is brought low. With it no longer being a threat, he turns his attention to the boy. He pulls out a wand and touches the tip to young Aayef.

CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

"She did, yes. She is very worried about you. What made you come to this holy place of Sarenrae?" he asks, turning his gaze around the ruin.

Ren is distracted as he speaks, as he investigates the old shire. "Yes, we are here as a favor to your mother. This is quite the destination. Do you know the history of that sword or this shrine?"

Yuukyou breathes deeply, trying to bring himself under control.

He growls a little as his eyes flash.

Ren inspects his cracked ribs and his torn rope. "Yes, I would not refuse healing. I'm sure glad that thing grabbed more robe than flesh, I would be in bad shape if it would have got me in those claws."

That's the biggest dang scorpion I've ever seen! It nearly took my head off. Umberto slumps down by Ren and fills a mug of ale to calm his nerves. He is keen to hear the answer for knowledge of the sword.

To Ren and Bielsi, the boy says, "I just felt like exploring... Mother can be a tad overprotective at times, but I see the wisdom of her ways now. Still, she should have involved me an an earlier age in the ways of the warrior. She did the best she could without Father, however..."

He then nods at Umberto's comment, agreeing.

Before you have time to reply and before Aayef adds more details, the jeweled sword in the boy's hand loudly hails you all with a deep voice and says, “Brave adventurers! I am Soldier’s Glory, servant of the noble bastions of the Last Azlanti. Identify yourselves!”

Ren looks up and thinks about standing before deciding it would hurt too much, "Yes, we are helping a descendant of Alcasti. Honored to meet you, um, Soldier's Glory. 'Noble bastions of the Last Azlanti'? The Last Azlanti; I've heard that name somewhere. Does anyone recognize what his noble bastions are?"

Ren is not trying to be flippant about Aroden, I just don't know what amount of campaign setting info the average Pathfinder would know. Not sure if Ren would know about Aroden's different nicknames.

Yuukyou raises an eyebrow.

That... suddenly some of the cards I drew this morning make a lot more sense. Hm.

He seems content to let the others talk to the sword for a moment.

It is fortunate that Bielsi had not shared some of Umberto's libations. Otherwise, he would have spit a mouthful of it across the desert when the sword speaks to them.

He was about to ask Aayef another question but could only stare, open mouthed as the sword announced itself.

"Did you know it could talk?" he finally asks the young man, when he has recovered somewhat. "Did it suggest you come out here?"

"Oh yes, I am Ren. And that is Umberto with the ale. Our friend with stout legs but a big heart is Bielsi. Over there is Yuukyou, don't mind him, he takes a while to wind down after a fight. Kim here is our resident crusader of Iomedea. Last is Frostwind with the explosive concoctions"

After hearing your introductions, Soldier's Glory says, "A good blade advises and helps, but it is above all a weapon. Weapons are meant to kill, and once a blade deems the swordsman worthy, that decision to draw sword is taken him or her. Young Aayef has been deemed worthy to carry me in battle, so I will assist him in any endeavor he sees fit. I will hear your allegiances and take the weight of your virtues before serving a new master. While it is true that I served Honaria Alcasti, my services are not exclusive to her bloodline and I have since been shipped off to new lands where I have found need of my assistance in battle!"

Bielsi frowns and strokes his craggy chin after hearing the sword speak. And not just because it is a talking sword.

"This leaves us in an interesting predicament. I don't believe our benefactor has much claim on this weapon. It was willingly sold and not stolen, after all. I assume that neither Aayef nor Soldier's Glory want to be separated from each other and I have no desire to separate them," he says.

"Am I correct, Aayef? Do you still want to carry that sword and put it to use in the name of what is right and good?" he asks the boy.

"Perhaps just confirmation that the sword is real and its testimony about Honaria will be enough?"

"Well said Bielsi."

Aayef answers, "Mother makes all decisions in our affairs. We shall consult her in this matter, as I understand she was receptive to Mister Alcasti's request... you work for Mister Alcasti, yes? and he needs this sword again? why for?"

To restore his family's reputation, I'm sure an arrangement between Mister Alcasti and your mother can be struck. As I understand it, this sword was not yours to have in the first place, but for your elder sister. Umberto gives a look, appealing to his guilt.

"Whatever the reason he sold his blade to my family, he must have had his reasons. But yes, let us discuss in front of Mother and see what she says." says the young Aayef, diplomatically before the sword cuts in. "His sister will never wield me, as she is neither worthy nor capable. Aayef has more backbone than some generals I’ve known. Why should I care about Honaria's descendant at this point? do you find him worthy yourself?"

The sword hums audibly and its radiance increases upon hearing Kim's comments, before adding, "If you serve the Inheritor, then I deem you particularly qualified to answer my question, Sister Kim. Speak your thoughts clearly. I can hear what people say, but I cannot enter their mind to make guesses."

For having sold you in the first place, perhaps not. But his his motivations to restore honor to his family rings true. Surely, you would hear him out if Aayef, the master you serve now, is willing to.


Knowledge Checks

"What tales of heroism can you bring to my ears, adventurers? what personal obstacles of note have you faced? what kind of heroes does this descendant of Honaria has surrounded himself with in order to regain his lost honor? are Honaria's deeds in question or just this fellow's deeds, or lack thereof?"

I will need a diplomacy check at this point; depending on how your answer his question, bonuses or penalties will apply. You also sense that Aayef now hesitates in returning to the estate, fearing to be branded a coward or troublemaker... so diplomacy or intimidate will be required for him as well.

Ren slowly steps up onto the ruined pedestal, careful of the injuries sustained in battle, and speaks allowing the light of sarenrae to add a fiery eloquence to his words.

"We just recently came from the depths of a basilica dedicated to the memory of Aroden, within we fought toe to toe against ratfolk. Umberto led the charge on them kicking down the door! While galliant Kim turned aside their counter attacks on her shield."

[success]

While traveling in the desert, Soldier's Glory vividly listens to your personal journeys, and for those who allow it, she asks a series of follow-up questions out of genuine interest. Upon hearing all your stories, the sword says, "Friends call me Glory; you may now do so, O brave ones!."

You all convince Glory to present evidence supporting Remaio’s claim to nobility, but the sword reserves the right to change its decision after she meets the man. Some of you understand that Glory still cares deeply about Honaria Alcasti. Glory graces you all with an account of how, after defeating an enemy battalion in the Conquest, Honaria turned opponents to her cause by treating her prisoners with dignity. The blade believes that Taldor only lost the war because insufficient resources prevented Honaria from implementing her masterful tactics.

You also convince Aayef to return home, where his mother greets him affectionately. Aayef’s resolve to seek adventure has not dimmed, but he has learned his lesson about charging off alone. At some point in the evening, he also mysteriously seeks an audience alone with Umberto and Kim (check your PMs).

After you explain your purpose in Qadira, Lady Ghazali allows you all to leave with Soldier’s Glory - for the moment on loan, she explains that future details of this arrangement will be brought forward to Remaio directly.

Back in Taldor, Remaio is relieved to see the blade, and he asks you if the rumors about it are true. Upon hearing this, the blade addresses Remaio directly and explains her intent to restore Honaria’s good name. To this effect, she addresses Kim, "Noble War Priestess, I would assist you until the end of this mission, if you will wield me. What say you?"

The boy can't avoid a smile when you say that. You can't avoid noticing how strong his grip is when he shakes your hand and how well-balanced his entire posture is. You think he has probably spent the better part of 10 years training with sword masters.
