LOTR RP Game part 1- Journey to Fornost

(so you said :"Zeratul, currently bashing at him with his shield."😉

No, Fire, I wes ADDRESSING you as Zeratul, I was TALKING about the Orc! That is an incomplete quote, there was half a sentence and a comma before the 'Zeratul'.

Palanfirith, that would mean wading into the melee...

... but the melee seems to be breaking up anyway! The Orcs are pulling back and out, throuhg the gates and back towards the cover of their javelin throwers. The large orc snarls loudly towards all of you, but happily, having achieved his mayhem for today. His bodyguards pull back more slowly, covering his escape.

Most of the orc spearmen are dead.

(ok I apologize sorry)

"Good, we have won (!) we should go and inspect the damage and find the reason why they have attacked us"

Palanfirith, Kumar's neck is broken.

(Anilca, you may now start playing from, this point, as you watch the Orcs retreating from nearby. You sw their attack on this settlement- and you have seen Elves defending it, which makes you curious to go there and see what this fuss is all about...)

*Aniica looks around. She wonders what the fuss was about. Garisal lands on the rock beside her. She slowly climbs down the rocks. She had seen the Elfs, and wanted to see who they were. She carried her bow in her left hand and Garisal flew at her right side.*

Vardalain joins the others watching the retrieving orcs. He's happy that no too grave injuries were made to his comrades.

There is at first a panic at the sight of the other approaching figure- but you can see it is anither Elf, Vardalain. Shorter, though- a Silvan. Her kind have never seen the light of the west.

Kumar is dead, there was no chance to save him. Only a handful of people are left defending this place. Grum is alive, having killed two orcs in the fight. Many men are wounded- but no civlians were hurt.

Vardalain, your left arm needs treatment, that will take a few days to heal up. Thw wounds to people like Tarin will pain them but not disadvantage them, once patched up. Palanfirith has the biggest irritation. Even with your best treatment and his Elvish constitution, he will be barely able to walk for a day and will have a bad limp for at least a week. The wound may take a month to fully heal. Being an Elf, it wil heal completely and without long-term effect.

All this, though, assumes you have the herbs you need to treat everyone, which you do not. Some people will have to go out and look for it. Gosh, if only you had a few outdoor tracking types in the group...

(oh, but but i do😈)
vardalain waits for the elf to approach before doing any action on that. He adresses the rangers of the group.
"i need some herbs to treat our wounded"

Aniica walked up to Vardalin and looked at him. She looked around at the wounded. She spoke.
'Aaye! I'm Aniica Woodland, an Elvish healer. Why have the orcs attacked you?'
Anii looked at the Elf.

(finally I'm back)

I get up and also go and join my mates.I see the orcs running far but another elf is near vardalain.Palanfirith gets curious.He aproches...

(do you have the herbs to make me better ?or shell we search for them? )

I say:"Vardalain, go find some rangers or scouts to go and get the herbs, Palanfirith can you have a talk with aniica, and maybe she can help you and the rest of our wounded. Master Dwarf can you go and inspect the camp if possible, the rest of you go and see where you can be of use"

I go and see wether or not the gate is fixable

Nope, though it would make good firewood.

"Damn them," says Grum, walking to your side. "WHY did they come? Why waste their time with us?"

Vardalain could certainly do with some stuff. Too many orcs poison their weapons.

As Mah seems to be away, he can go out looking for the stuff you need, the rest of you can check out any other leads that you like.

I speak softly:"I think this wasn't as much a raid as it was an assasination, Palafirith found the body of that cloack man that was in your camp, stabbed in the back, what was his story actualy? for I suspect that was their target and everything else was a diversion"

"He was a traveller, like yourselves," says Grum. "He came to the camp this last week."

What did you mean by 'cloack', Fire?

(sorry thought you said he was wearing a cloack or cape or something like that could be that I am mistaken°

"So you really do not know anything else about him, he must have been of some importance!"

"I know nothing. And if he was of importance, why was he here?"

I araise my voice, not shouting just speaking rather loud, tho some ppl could call it shouting:"Palanfirith get over here, I need some information, maybe master Aranui should come aswell!"

"Well, by the coins he had in the pouch, he seems to be a Gondorian or a man from that area. But I should know little of the Gondorians, so I am of no help."

Aniica looks at Palanfirith.
'Yes, I do have herbs, but it really depends on which one you need. Nightdew will heal most cuts, Shadowleaves will heal arrow-wounds, Geven-leaves will cure most poisons. I'd have to see what you really need.'
Aniica takes out her pouch of herbs and lays them on a rock.
