Re: The Boar\'s Head Pub
While Drago and Tom where out, monty and I were doing our best for our poisoned friends.
The poison was not the same, of course, but we had no clue. All we had was to hope for some recovery, until the moment we had to use some magic, and expose ourselves. The leaves, I kept dissolving in hot water next to them, but we had to come out to the starry night.
"Do you think they'll recover, Dread?"
"I don't know. They're stable, from what I can see, but not knowing the two poisons used is like facing two daggers from the dark". I shook my head in disbelief."I never expected we would be attacked this way, though I antecipated some action when the Elven Lord mentioned what was, or what I thought was, a kept secret".
"Will you tell me about it?"
"Not yet, my friend. All that there was to be known is out in the open, and the Elven Lord should have never discussed it openly".
"Do you think him a traitor, or a Dark Elf?"
"No, unless he was recruiting to get rid of the opposition, but that's difficult to conceive, when he had a Dwarf beside him. I'm sure he's sincere. Careless, maybe light-hearthed, but sincere."
We strolled back together in silence and tended to our friends in need. I only hoped they would recover soon...

I wish I had more time to adventure...
