Armello: fate of Kings and Heroes [NSFW,violence]

@Cerebrate  
Such as?

@EclecticInspiration  
Griotte: “a few fires, a few murders and they’ll be running for the border.”
 
 
@Jinx  
“Armello is pockmarked with a colorful past, and a nearby catacomb known as the hound’s grave may hold such a stone… or a sleeping bane, fair chance of that being there too.”

@Cerebrate  
We cant really fight a bane though. We barely survived the last one.

@Cerebrate  
“I have special tools to make good fire; I’m open to that. I’d like to make sure they don’t come back in force. They’re of the opinion our sort has no place in nature; I’m unwilling to let them see that through.”

@Jinx  
Oreo: “that’d be up to luck, and i understand you don’t like trusting something so fickle.”
 
@EclecticInspiration  
Griotte: “they will not be a problem for much longer, they depend on forestslands, and when those are cut back, they have nothing.”

@Cerebrate  
“Then I think we’re good to go. Any special places to start the fires at?”

@EclecticInspiration  
Griotte: “to the north are the menhir forests, the druids home.”

@Cerebrate  
“Not for long. I’ll meet your men there and we’ll see them run far.”  
She’ll stop by some shops of different sorts to request odd items, then leave, making haste to Menhir.

@Cerebrate  
We cant risk another few days out, or dying.

@Jinx  
“you face Tau with only three stones and he’s going to have your head on a pike before they work their magic.”
 
 
@EclecticInspiration  
as she arrives she sees the riches of the clan had indeed mobilized, paid off guards and armed mercenaries were standing at the ready.
 
Worm: “it warms my heart to see so many willing to feed into the cycle of death. instruct them to smash the rune covered stones and set ablaze the huts of the bears, when my children can breathe freely they shall assist.”

@Cerebrate  
I dont need to face him, i need to cut off his head when hes not looking.

@Jinx  
“becasue that’s so much easier… he is paranoid, meaning he’ll keep some alert guards close to himself.”

@Cerebrate  
So whats yoir plan then?

@Jinx  
“well we already have the armor for me and the stewart kitty around your little finger, so i figured we grab the fourth stone get kitty to bring us in officially, rather than trespass, and claim to hand one stone over for the reward, except when he enters me and the snakes come in with the other three and we surround him, the king keels over and MAtt proclaims the queen.”

@Cerebrate  
She steps upon a rock to be seen and heard. “Spare no time smashing rocks with runes, and try not to get yourselves burnt. Now go and butcher until it is done!”
 
(Brb)

@Cerebrate  
And if that doesnt work?

@EclecticInspiration  
the mercs yell out and charge, only for the first wave to get smashed strangled or impaled on wild vines.
 
Worm: “let them exhaust themselves on the fodder numbers are with us.”
 
@Jinx  
“carving out his rotten heart while we have him surrounded would make an adequate alternative in a pinch.”

@Cerebrate  
Then the bandit army will begin the siege once you and i are inside. The others are already on the move.

@Jinx  
Oreo: “sounds like an idea, so… we make a try at ruin exploration or not?”

@Cerebrate  
I remember actually matt walking off with a stone at our first meeting. Perhaps he still has it or others. I will not risk fighting a bane though.

@Jinx  
“then let’s see if he kept things together well enough.”
 
there was a whisper in the wind SHyanne would recognize as zosha trying to talk to her.

@Cerebrate  
she stopped, making sure oreo was quiet too as she listened in

@Jinx  
Zosha: “an internal matter, Shy, please meet me alone.”

@Cerebrate  
Oreo, go to the campsite i told you about, i have something i must do.

@Jinx  
the shark nods and leaves, shortly after the rat steps out of the shadows.
 
“you’d best make good on your bid to the throne quickly… and then rally any forces you can. the other rats are moving, with the dragon clan in tow. their target are the bears and the deer in the north.”
