The young acolyte brings a goat's bladder filled with goat's milk and feeds the infant in Father Renaud's arms.


The young acolyte rushes off to procure the curative potions offered by Father Renaud, returning a few minutes later with a leathern case containing 24 potions of cure light wounds, which he hands over to Trevaga the Redeemer with a bow....


The young acolyte also channels, but the healing is superfluous.... Jean Lamarre is restored to full vigor....

Is the Acolyte with the weapons coming up the stairs to hand them over? If so, I take one. If not, Alphonse just keeps going until he hits the top of the stairs.

Yes, the acolyte hurries up the stairs, passing out the cold iron weapons....

Alphonse winds up with the +1 cold iron greatsword....

Trevaga took the +1 cold iron short sword....

Paddy gets the masterwork cold iron dagger....

Ubchell gets the masterwork cold iron scimitar....

Tiberius is handed the +1 cold iron earth breaker....

Hisao gets the +1 cold iron heavy mace....

Charmaine is given the +1 cold iron morningstar....


We can assume the four rounds required for the acolyte to fetch cold iron weapons passes tensely with everyone waiting at some level on the stairs....

The young acolyte hurries back from the shadowed nave of the great cathedral with a bag containing:

A masterwork cold iron dagger

A +1 cold iron heavy mace

A +1 cold iron short sword

A +1 cold iron battle axe

A masterwork cold iron scimitar

A +1 cold iron earth breaker

A +1 cold iron greatsword

Tevaga asks the acolyte & the priest:

Quickly! Do you have any daggers that are like these bolts!

The young acolyte turns and races off into the shadows of the nave without answering....


At this point, another young acolyte comes racing out of the shadows of the nave, a pair of leather quivers in his hands....

Ici! Utilisez ceux-ci!

English:
Here! Use these!

He thrusts a quiver containing 20 cold iron crossbow bolts at Tevaga....

His other hand holds a quiver containing 20 cold iron arrows....


1 person marked this as a favorite.

The chunk of mortar strikes the young acolyte on the back with a sickening crunch! He cries out once and sprawls prone on the cobbles of the plaza before the portal he intended to enter, a pool of blood quickly expanding under him....

The young acolyte beckons the newcomers to follow, a look of hope mingled with pale fear on his face, and dashes back through one of the great portals into the cathedral, stammering a quick explanation in breathless French:

Les cloches ont commencé à sonner quand personne ne devrait avoir été dans la tour.... Le père Renaud a couru pour enquêter et ces méchants diablotins coupent une cloche libre, percutante le cher père!

English:
The bells began to ring when no one should have been in the tower.... Father Renaud went to investigate, and those damned gremlins cut free a bell, crushing the dear father!


A frightened human male voice cries out from the front portals of the cathedral, in French:

Aide! Le père Renaud a été écrasé par une cloche!

English:
Help! Father Renaud has been crushed by a bell!

A young man in simple brown robe cinched at the waist with a rope from which depends a rosary races into the plaza....
