Alejandro and Khal meet again
Score: 214 | 11/9/13 |
That night, Abac informs Alejandro that an unnamed source advised him that a friend of his was on his way to the Caves of Tamal to render assistance to the Mercati defending against the Impuniti. Before leaving, Abac gives Ale a stone that he said will tell him whether a loved one is sick, healthy, or dead. Tirelessly, Alejandro trudges through rain and merciless terrain at great cost to his stamina and finally meets up with his friend the next morning. Khal introduces him to Mouse and Laroen.
Laroen confirms that the Impuniti have joined with an orc tribe to attack the Mercati. The four agree that Laroen should shape change and fly to warn the Mercati, and that when the trio reaches the caves, they are to use the password "Paladin".
They press on towards the caves and run into two Impuniti scouts on a path. Khal and Mouse surprise them and Khal delivered a critical strike to the lead man, felling him with one blow. The two men turn out to be Pandak and Crilith. They strip them, tie them up, and interrogate them. Finding nothing useful, Khal slays both of them and hides their bodies. Khal and Ale dress up in their uniforms and the three continue on towards the caves.
