Strangers IC Thread

"A bit, yes" Ewyn responds

[Fidoric]

I don't think there are enough of us to explore that endless tunnels safely. Plus we are lacking materials such as torches, ladders and so on. Besides, the welcome ceremony was not exactly...warm.
I think we won't find any help down there. But it is a place I will want to go to in the future to learn more about what makes the spirits shun those ruins.

For now I suggest we just pick a random direction and go looking for any civilization.

"I agree, let us go elsewhere until we are more likely to survive the dangers below. Since we came North from a bit to the South, I suggest that we continue heading North for now. At least that way, we are not backtracking over land we have already traveled. Besides, I would rather avoid the flying creatures that drove us in this direction to begin with."

[Fidoric]

"I agree with you my friend. Let's have some rest and then to the north.", says Ceillen after a quick look at the sky...

At the base of the ruins a portal opens up about 15 feet above the ground.  Out tumbles a Dwarf, his flightless bird mount, and a human that pile up one upon another in a chaotic pile. 

The Dwarf finds himself in tall grass and stares up at a uniquely styled pyramid that is partially covered in green weeds.  At the top of the pyramid he sees four figures that are partially obscured by the fact that the Dwarf's trusty retainer's leg is covering up his vision. 

The Dwarf seems to have forgotten much about his past and only the vague recollection of his name, and the name of his retainer are there.  The rest is clouded in mystery and forgetfulness.  He does however retain all of his training and skills.  He also immediately realizes... that this place is not the same place as where he grew up.  It just feels... different.

Ewyn looks at his companions, "I believe that we are witness to how we originally arrived here. Let us go give them a hand and see if his memory is any better than ours was when we first arrived here"

[Fidoric]

I am with you my friend. Let's see what we can do to help.

[Sunwolf]

"Oy, Gustav get off me.  I want to see where we are."  He pushes his companion out of his way and stands up to get a better look at the Pyramid.

[samwise7]

The four figures are coming down the block steps of the pyramid and approaching the new arrival.  They seem friendly, though they do seem like they would be dangerous towards any enemies that came their way.

[Sunwolf]

Thorite untangles himself from Gustav and the bird and stands up waiting for the strangers approach.  He is ready for battle if needed but doesn't have any weapons in hand.

[imported_Rasyr]

Ewyn walks up to the new comers. "Hello, my name is Ewyn. Do you have any idea how you arrived here?"

[Sunwolf]

"Thorite is my name and I have no idea how I got here or where here is."

[Fidoric]

Well met, friend Thorite. I am Ceillen and this big guy (Ceillen point at his retainer) is Aldor. We are lost here, just like you. We were going to have some rest before going north in search of answers. Will you join us ?

[Sunwolf]

'Gustav, and I will join you, it seems our manner of arrival is against nature and if there is someone behind it I will have some words for them.'  Thorite strokes his warhammer as he says the last bit.

[imported_Rasyr]

"My tall friend here is Creg. We ourselves arrived a little to the south here and upon seeing this structure came this direction. It is extremely dangerous inside this pyramid, at least one creature that requires stronger magic than what we currently possess to fight. We have therefore decided to explore a bit further before coming back dealing with the evil that lies within. Care to join us on our further explorations?"
