I suppose it may be a common sight. Here.
Rorek places a hand on Henricks shoulder.
Blessed light, grant this man the strength to continue.
Perhaps we should speak around, maybe someone here knows something.. also, I doubt this giant is dead. My first strike was not intended to kill. It may be prudent to restrain him.
"I feel mostly better. That big ugly sure hit hard. "
"Sorry, don't speak giant. I focused on ancient languages which are useful in my work. "
"I wonder what our chances are of chatting up some of the locals?"
"They're not queuing up to talk to us after dropping that giant."
Mihail moves the spiked club far from its reach.
"I mean this big sack of meat is twice our size. Normal ropes of his size won't be enough. We will need something better to secure him with. Or leave him barely conscious while we question him so that we can knock him out with just a hit if he is uncooperative."
"Yeah, I'm a bit concerned about him resuming his passion for beating us up when he wakes. I'm a bit inclined to make sure he doesn't. "
It is an insane giant. I doubt it could survive what we did to it and if by some miracle it does still lives...let that miracle be ended quickly.
taking a moment to check the giant, you do find that it is indeed quite dead, blood leaks out of its multiple wounds upon its body.
But, looking closer at it, you do notice that the face itself is heavily scared with burns. Not burns from fire, but from acid. Parts of his face, what you thought were burns and whitened scar tissue, is in fact, bone.
Upon the lifeless giant body, you do notice that the club is made of excellent material, not only the handle material but also the spikes as well. Upon his body you see 5 javelins, a chainshirt, and a decanter.
he has a coin purse tied to his waistband, but it is surprisinly heavy. Pouring out its contents you dont see the traditional monetary forms of gold, silver or copper, but instead just 5 iron bits.
"Chunks of iron as currency? How very odd. Is there a surplus of precious metals here or a shortage of iron?"
"I wonder who, or what, attacked him first?"
J'Victus looks at the giant again. Seeing the items that appear to be of excellent quality, he mumbles a few arcane phrases under his breath.
As Idril searches the giant and removes the items that peak her interest. J'Vicuts will lifts certain things up and examines them for a few seconds before placing them to the side in a pile separate from the others.

"Oh, he already passed on. Guess we miss it."
Mihail eyes are sparkling as he assesses the mace while giving a sidelong glance at the dead giant.
"I think we can ask around while we are selling all of this sweet loot. This mace looks like it could fetch some good gold."

the decanter and the club show magic.

[spoiler=mihail KN checks]
you know that there is a plant that has some sort of acid attack. It is the TENDRICULOS. otherwise within the planes, you know demons and devils abound with acid attacks.

Idril steps back from the giant as J'Victus begins looking over the items.
"Hopefully some of this stuff is worthwhile. We can try to trade some of it perhaps for supplies, split it up the best we can among ourselves.
I could also follow where the giant came from. I'm fairly proficient in tracking. I could spend a little time seeking out where it came from while the rest of you find out what you can in this place."
perhaps, however I'm unsure if any of use could even use that giant club.
Rorek will urge Dash upwards into the air about 300ft and scan the land from which the giant came.
"Whatever attacked that giant before we showed up might not be welcoming to us either."
"So we should have some care when tracking where he came from."
"Yeah, best to be careful. Did we ever hear work of a goal in this Desolation, or are we just wandering aimlessly?"
"We were hired to end the Desolation by people who don't actually know what it is."
"That is annoying; but I like a challenge!"
"Finding out as much as we can about where we are now is as good a start as any, I reckon."
