The group gathered themselves to launch a rescue mission.
King Regar whispered his cautions to Euwyn. Yuri volunteered himself to come
along. Shelby sought information from Justice. But as they were finalizing affairs
for departure, Lex and Giada appeared. They had a harrowing tale to tell of
capture, slavery, sacrifice and escape, but central to the tale was the gnoll,
demon-priestess. She had to be removed from power if there was to be any hope
of peace with the gnolls.
As usual, Lexington had an unusual plan. Rather than try to
fight their way down her, they would draw her out. And how? With the power of
Strom! They would go to the plains and bring the power and the word of Strom to
the gnolls, convert them to their faith and when she heard of this, she would
have to come forth to put down this blasphemy.
Adding Giada and Lex to the mix the party journeyed forth.
They sent Yuri to gather info from the logging village. He came back with
rumors of dissent among the ranks amid concerns that Antionne might be losing
his mind. He dug up his son’s dead body the other day!
Hurrying on, they reached the plains in a day and half only
to find the town under attack by giant insects. They rushed in and killed the
bugs, saving several gnolls in the process - by the grace of Strom - though one
house was destroyed.
