Yes, the undisturbed rest will be welcome indeed. Perhaps in the morning you might can send us on our way with a Wind Walk or Eagle Aerie?
Ilithial stays alert and ready to act at the Inn but Shimmer slips out to see what mischief she can get into. Receiving an extended invisibility from her master Shimmer casually moves bobbles from one pack to another in the camps, over salts cook pots, ties a shoe laces together, loosens pack straps, cuts cords here and there and genuinely is a nuisance, always doing things that one rival group might blame another for. She is constantly detecting magic to learn what she might learn and is on the lookout for valuable and opportunities.
Shimmer returns to Ilithial and recommends There is an orc caster, a devotee to some dark orcish god. We should try to avoid that side and go the other way.
Counting on her small size, skill at stealth, and speed, shimmer joins the scouts to assess the danger of the side rooms.
Shimmer addresses the knights There is your solution men, and it is one fitting those who are brave and dedicated to eradicating evil. An undead dragon threatens innocents. There can be no greater call for action. We will go to deal with this blight. Are you with us?
Shimmer studies the woman using both Detect Magic and Detect Evil. She confers with her group with her findings. She then speaks to the woman. Either this entity is evil, or you are. Or you both are. In truth it does not matter which. These knights will not release you and without sufficient additional reason we will not try to compel them to do so. And since you are a wiling host I do not think we can compel the creature to leave you. So you will remain a captive unless you can better plead your case to us. Tell us of the creature you have provided a host for and why its evil does not threaten others.
Shimmer's face turns red and she stammers in a small furry Fey! Fey? I'll have you know I am an Azata of the higher plains and a handmaiden to Densa herself. I have attached myself to this human to better bring goodness into this world that is sorely in need of it. Now will you reject the help you need simply because you do not know us or will you thank the gods that we are here like you should and invite us into your camp like civilized men to see if we can help?
Shimmer flies to within earshot of the camp as the group makes their way forward. Hello in the camp. She calls. We are friends from the same camp you departed from. We are on our own mission and would speak with you to trade intelligence and offer assistance if you need it.
Shimmer feels it necessary to report back to the group with her findings.
That is correct. the small woman agrees with a wry smile. You cannot hurt me with all the electricity you might bring to bear. So you shall be my knight in shining armor and shall come to my aid should evil assail me. How valiant of you.
Shimmer follows flying at 80. But she trails the group keepin them in sight.
Shimmer also scans the entrance her always on Detect Magic and Detect Evil looking for magical dangers and hidden evil. For now she hides in Ilithial's robes but looks out unhappily at the cavern entrance. |
