The liquid didn't stick to the piece of wood at all.

Branches, trash and pebbels were about to be cleaned when Lugus noticed a curious thing.

The altar was dry. So was the bowl, there was naught but black liquid inside. The four cornerstores similarily had dry surfaces. In fact, for some reason, not a droplet of rain dared to fall on the shrine's rocks.

Cynbel growled right back at the Formorian, bearing his teeth. "SPIRIT ANIMAL!" The brute of a man smashed his fists together once, twice, thrice! "GRANT ME STRENGTH!" What came after was nothing more than a inarticulate shout of rage that sounded far more bestial than human as Cynbel charged the Formorians.

Call of Spirit, CHARGE! (Smack the same Formorian Asmund did if possible)

Cynbel suddenly began to have a certain glow about himself! (Call of Spirit: +2 unarmed, +5% Hit/Evasion)

Show them what Svagard shows you, brothers!

Group Predictions!

Then Lugus and his companions caught a glimpse of the future! (Group Predictions: +10% Hit/Evasion till next turn)

Summon bear to attack attack Fomorian!

Suddenly a large brown bear jumped out from behind the trees with a thunderous roar! (Bjorn's Bear joins the combat!)

"Focus your attacks! Bring down these monsters!"

Hack at the rockless Formorian!

Asmund attacks Fomorian without Any Rocks!

Hit chance: 70+10+10-0 = 90

"These are Formorians?!" Was all that Geraldine shouted, already preparing the rain.
Rain call!

The clouds darkened and soon the rain descended upon the shrine.

!Enemy Phase!

GRUULLLL.

Fomorian with Rocks glared at Geraldine and then thrown a rock at her. It must not like rain.

Hit chance: 70+10-10-10-0 = 60
Hit roll: 45, hit!
Damage: (dice: 9, + 1) = 10 x 1.0 = 10dmg

"Your wyvern can sleep in cargo bay amongst dusty, empty crates."

Margaret took the whole crew on a little tour. She have shown them where the metallic beds are (with super cozy matresses), and how to operate the InstaDish machine (which apparently created nothing else but cooked peas, carrots and roast steak), and then there were bathrooms...

"...and after you're done undressing, you step into the cabin, push the red button, wait for the doors to seal, then push the yellow button for complete shower and soap scrub. Green button is for opening the door once the shower's done. That concludes our tour of the ship. Do you have any questions?"

Oili ran into the thicket and quickly found herself on a path.

The rest of the group quickly found themselves at a shrine. Large, white, square-ish rock was standing in the middle, with a empty wooden bowl on top. Four smaller rocks encircled the shrine. It was a simple but decent shrine.

Unfortunately, old bits of hair, gnawed bones, some skulls and lots of other trash was strewn about on the ground, the trash covering flat rocks that made the shrine's floor.

Then there was a loud grunt. And another.

And a pair of hairy, overtly tall and large humanoids moved from behind the thicket that was behind the shrine. Their small black eyes, embedded in deep eyesockets, stared down at the Walkers. They grunted again, their voices louder and harsher.

One of the mini-giants roared and the other lifted few rocks, snarling and drooling.

They were hungry beastly men...

They were Fomorians of foreigners' tales!

Oili in the meanwhile managed to reach the glade with burned out stump. Her companions where nowhere to be seen.

There was however a small arrow drawn into the dirt, pointing to Oili's left.
