"Breaking Free"

Played on April 15th, 2012

March 31st, 21 Years After the Departure (Atd)

Luckily Galtar sprang to my aid, as I had taken a lot of hits from the Greyskins. It also helped that Soniah did her "turn into a flaming ball of death" routine, thereby routing a lot of the minions. Combined with Tharen's attacks from the dark, that left us with a few of the leaders.

As I only learned after the fight, Vaal had killed one of the leaders on his own just by shooting arrow after arrow. Very nice! The other was dispatched of by Boulder. I was not entirely sure that he only dropped down after taking the very large beating that I saw on his body, but I decided that I would rather skip that detail.

As for myself during the battle, I managed to get the prisoners out of the thick of it. Then I focused on keeping them calm and in a sane state of mind.

That was all there was to it, really. We were not entirely sure that no Greyskin had escaped, but to go back and pursue them was not an option. So we executed the final part Boulder's plan, and set fire to the support beams just before we left. That would surely slow down any pursuers enough for us to get out.

In the meantime, Tharen was already busy freeing as many of the prisoners as he could manage. With the help of Galtar, we could set out as quickly as possible. Fimbur led the way. For all of his confidence yesterday though, he was not entirely sure all the time. We had to walk the rest of the day.

It took us the better part of the next day to reach the exit as well, but find it we did, with many thanks to Fimbur.

While we walked, Boulder and Soniah were "interrogating" (for lack of a better word) the prisoners. They were really desperate to find the supposed warlocks. They talked to an elf named Thaithir, which they "suspected". To me, it looked like one smaller group of the prisoners kept together, a bit separated from the rest. That group included the prisoners that both Boulder and Soniah initially suspected. However after their talks, while the group did not tell them everything, it appeared that there were no warlocks to be found after all. This disappointed both of them, but I was secretly glad inside that we freed all of the prisoners anyway. The more people free, the better!

When we finally arrived outside I was glad to see daylight once again. Boulder delivered a nice speech which I was glad to see heartened the spirits. We had a few days journey ahead of us and we were all hungry. I was hoping that most of the freed prisoners would join our resistance!
