Alright thats it for today! Sorry Fenrir, Helmaroc and Dreadfang, im afraid you're characters have been delayed due to not being able to find a human town. If you're wondering, that martial trance was completely random, I just threw some meat at the wolf in an attempt to collapse its body into a lump of gore, but I ended up with a trance.   :D

The search for humanity continues. Yet another wolf pack has been stumbled upon, its starting to get tiresome. Imp's sword tore through the air and slashed across the face of the first one to get in range, blood where its eyes once where. Eshtan meanwhile was upset about the loss of all his bolts and didnt see the wolf bite his head. While he wept into his hands the wolf was gnawing and slobbering all over his steel helm. He started to get a headache and snapped a wolf leg with his crossbow. The wolf continued its helmet-chewing, while Eshtan was still wearing it, when a sword came from behind and mangled its head and brain. Eshtan would have been highly disturbed by the sight, if he was not infact lying on the ground asleep. Imp slit a throat. Eshtan snored. Imp slits a gut. A wolf vomits. Eshtan woke up so as to avoid the vomit and Imp decided to gut a still living wolf.

...
Oh well, lets continue on he thought.

(EDIT OOC: OK TOADY THIS IS NOT FAIR, I didnt even move off the tile and I got attacked AGAIN!)

From now on the story will consist of a series of violent imagines of wolves getting slaughtered.  :mad:

The story will resume once Eshtan dies, I find a human town or I burn out all my anger and give up.

Strangle you with a wolf leg!!!

Eshtan gave up. While Imp remained unmoved by the constant slaughter and endless journeying, the swamp finally did it. It felt like he was going around in circles, like he was going back the way he came. It couldnt be right... how long were they going around like this? He prayed he would find town soon.

 

(OOC: augh, that screenshot is just north of the previous one. Im heading north now, im pretty sure theres a town there...)

It was dark, it was hopeless, Eshtan refused to go on, he would give into hunger and let his corpse feed the many wolves he fought so hard to escape. He wept as he bumped into a figure standing in the night. "*Sob* Srry strangr *sob* jussit on meh way *sob* te die..."

"What?" asked the figure.
"Its hopeless *sob*, hopeless hopeless hopeless!" he wept.
"Whats hopeless, tell me dwarf, what ails you so?" it asked.
"I cannae find eny humans arund... im hopelessly lost in the middle a nowhere an..." Eshtan spoke.
"...Well you've found us havent you?" It said.

(OOC: ive found humans! Its a good omen I say!)

The two journeyed for weeks, never finding any town since their meeting with the humans, but they were determined, they had not seen a wolf in all that time, things were finally looking up- until Eshtan noticed there was a wolf latched onto Imp's head. Imp cut it off, all of it, and Eshtan crushed its leg with his crossbow.

He looked at Imp, blood pouring from his eye- from what used to be his eye...

They cleaned up the rest of the wolves without trouble. Imp was alright, he wasnt badly hurt, just lacking an eye was all. He was troubled, perhaps they should camp and rest before continuing onwards...

(OOC: sadly thats all for today, sorry for anyone who chose a human, not my fault! Only good thing that came out of today was... I got to throw a bear head at a wolf.)

I lost an eye? Took me long enough. I'm normally dead by this point in the journey!

So true... hopefully il get to a town tomorrow, but at this rate I dont promise anything. I only hope Imp doesnt die until our whole party is assembled. Plus if he dies Eshtan will get eaten by wolves.

So the conclusion is... A thousand letters say more than a thousand words?  :confused:
