Hard Landing

Elwyn blushed, "I try to make their passing as comfortable as possible, and this is Gurguch, he is my familiar, a flesh golem." Gurguch stiffly rose a hand, and moved it in such a manner as could be guessed to be a wave, or he was just testing his joints, hard to tell. "Fear not, there is nothing in this hut that would hurt your, without my express commands." Elwyn turned to Gareth, "And my pleasures are not sick, thank you very much, I just need ways to maintain distance from battle." He turned back to Gurguch, rummaging around under his cloak, he pulled out a flask, then let a few drops of oil fall onto some gears and cogs inside the golem's chest. The he closed it up, and turned back to them, "Gurguch has been with me for a very long time, and so requires some maintenance." The golem rose stiffly off the table, "So, what is your planned course of action concerning this anomaly?" Elwyn asked, looking a Ven

OOC: Hmm, what the heck....

IC:

Lotyhir is walking along throught the woods, enjoying a bit of peace and quiet alone, when he spies a small cabin up ahead. He heads toward it, hoping to ask if he might rest for a while, as its's a rather warm day, and he's been walking for some time (okay, he's lost, but doesn't really want to admit it...) He knocks on the door.

Elwyn was just about to go into a long and complicated explination about the wonders of Gurguch, and the intricacy with which he made his constructs, when he heard a knocking on his "door". His mouth was open and everything, "We-" he sighed, and passed his hand over the section of wall from which the knocking came. It promptly fell to the ground, and Elwyn stepped out to meet his new arrival. The sight of another drow was quite unexpected, "And here I thought the drow were a subterranean race... and here I have a pair out in the middle of nowhere. Well, then, be welcome here, in my home away from home. Fear not, nothing here will harm you, etc. etc." He snapped his fingers, "By the way, where did you travel from? We have discovered something very interesting."

"Hey, its you! This is one of the bards from the tavern Elwyn, How you doing man? Hehe, Such a surprise to see a Somewhat...famous face around the middle of no where."

Elwyn looked from the teifling to the drow, "Ah, so I see the two of you know each other?" He smiled, and nodded, "Perhaps then Gareth you could fill him in as to our little situation." With that he absentmindedly turned to his table, and started packing away his tool, some he placed into his pack, all the tools with sharp cutting or points, he placed onto compartments in Gurguch, that glittered with other sharp metallic instruments of doom. When he was done, every surface was cleared of anything except a large gourd in a corner, leaving blank metallic walls and floors. Elwyn's hands rose, and suddenly, the little cottage started to dissolve into fine metallic sand, that flew into yet another compartment on Gurguch. When that was full, all that was left of the cottage was the table on which Gurguch was assembled. That too started to fall apart, and it filled the gourd, which Elwyn promptly put on his back, with a small grunt of exertion.

He looks about the room as he enters, suddenly feeling a vague sense of- trepidation? "Famous? Sir, you flatter me. Ah, I don't believe we've met foramlly. Did I come at a bad time?" he says, eyeing the- thing- on the table, and all the strange blades and what-not.

He looks at Elwyn "I've seen the two of you about the Half Moon, I think. I was just taking a nice stroll through the woods, and..." He looks back at Gareth, slightly embarrassed. "Actually, I got lost. I've not been in this reagion long, and don't know my way around so well. I was just looking for a well or something where I might get a drink. I'm parched!"

And that's when he notices the other occupant of the room. A strange-looking drow with odd clothes, and some sort of huge arquebus holstered over his shoulder. "Is that gnomish make? I've never seen an arquebus that big. What sort of shot does it use?"

Elwyn rummaged around in his cloak, and pulled out a fairly battered waterskin, "Here, drink up, there is a river not far from here, I can take you there." He scratched his chin, "The Half Moon Inn you say... hmm Ah! I remeber, interesting, I have memories of you there... then again, after a long life of solitude faces are like water to me."

"Well, My name is Gareth, And were in a bit of trouble here. You see this drow friend right here found some sort of... wierd... abnormality in space, We dont know whats happening but its probably nothing good, So were going to go see whats happening."

I said, Trying to explain so he could understand.

"Interesting. Yes, I agree that you really should keep an eye on this matter. What do you think can be done? Oh, I really should introduce myself- forgive the lack of manners. Lothir Ustdalharn E'Terrin'dar, pleased to meet you. On second thought- I've forsorn that accursed House, forget that part. Just Lothir, if you like."

He looks a bit embarrassed for a moment; the formal greeting still comes far too easily to one trained in the politics of Argonia's First House. <I'm an idiot,> he thinks. <Now they'll probably think I'm some sort of snooty noble brat.>

"Um, could you show me the way to that river? I've got my own skin, but it's been empty for days- no reason to fill it when I was at the inn.'

Elwyn nodds, "Come, we will all go," Nd heads off towards the river.

"Indeed, My canteen is running a little dry, And Grif looks like hes about to drop dead of thirst"

OOC: "Grif" is the name for the gryphon because i cant think of any good names

OOC: Funny! You named him after the Gargoyle? Kidding. It's a good name.

IC:
He follows the others out, and studies the stranger as they walk along. From his dress and weapon, one might think he was an overgrown techie-gnome. He'd heard of them, but never met one. They had a tendancy to cause accidents, so he'd heard.

OOC: Imagine the titanic trying to sail on land.

Elwyn didn't notice the look Lothir gave him, he seemed to be preoccupied with something, if it wasn't for Gurguch occasionally directing him, Elwyn might have come face to face with trees more than once. They got to the river without mishap, they passed the trench carved out by Ven Alil's ship.

OOC: Griff, Gurguch... Im just not seeing how you could have thought i named it after the golem lothir...

IC: Griff lowered his face to the water, Drinking to his hearts content, And i filled the large metal canteen to the poit of nearly overflowing. And i took a big mouthful of the cold water. It was refreshing on this hot day.

OOC: no, not the golem, I said Gargoyle!! The odl disney cartton Gargoyles, there was one from England named Griff, who looked like a griffon!! LOL!! Sorry, I should have been more specific. And I was looking at Ven, not Elwyn... He's familiar with gnome tech...
