Don't worry about Caledfwlch, he won't be around for long.

Chapter 10
-1
Ivanhoe groaned. Numerous thoughts raced through his head, most of them involving his misjudgment. Worst of all, he failed to realize Vlad was among the number he charged at.

Ivanhoe rapidly moved his hand towards his scabbard. He sighed with relief, the Excalibur was still in place. However, Jeran was nowhere in sight.

Ivanhoe hadn't slept since he left Bustoke. He tried to stand up, only to stumble like a drunkard. His body defeated his willpower, and he collapsed to the floor. Sleep came to him instantly.

--2

Caledfwlch hacked haphazardly at the door. The thick oaken barrier crumbled with his last axe swing. He kicked down the pathetic remains and stumbled into the dust laden chamber. Inside lay the various implements formerly owned by Ivanhoe.

He removed a wickedly sharp steel halberd from the rack. He swung the blade at several imaginary targets, fatally missing. Unsatisfied by his incompetence, he donned several items of armor. The iron chain mail itched him uncomfortably, the helmet irking his ears, and the greaves pinching his thighs.

He stumbled in the steel-toed boots he was wearing and wandered off to his quarters. The window was wide open, waiting for his exit. Below he had tossed many cushions. Muttering a brief invective at "his" armor, Caledfwlch leaped from the window onto the cushions.

His ankle cracked loudly. Caledfwlch cursed under his breath and limped off into the night. As he left, a vampire fire bolt corrupted the wall to its downfall. The undead were shambling in. All the people he loved were surely gone now, but adrenaline taught him to limp as fast as he could.
---
Several days later Caledfwlch arrived in Stonewell. His ankle had healed, but not his grief. Events had forced him to leave Bustoke behind.

Caledfwlch approached Stonewell's docks. A rusty old man clambered aimlessly about the docks.

"Give me a ticket to where the Anama are," Caledfwlch said sternly.

The man was clearly drunk, but managed to speak coherently, "Hey man, don't be so foul. The Anama are all over the place."

Caledfwlch tossed his halberd on the ground and seized the man. He shook him violently as he spoke, "Where are are their damn leaders you wanton weasle?"

The man was clearly frightened, he cowered away and tore off a ticket from his belt. Caledfwlch snatched it from his hand, and promptly kicked his shin. Caledfwlch then boarded the boat, attracting quite a sight as he shifted uncomfortably in his armor.

Ahonar is a god, let alone more powerful than all the others. He just can't be knocked unconscious so easily.

Um, Taliesin...Ahonar can't be taken out like that, and what's this thing about turning to wolves?

ET's godmodding was great, but Taliesin's just isn't realistic.

When Ivanhoe finally caught up with Jeran, he was dead silent. Jeran signaled impatiently, obviously attempting to make Ivanhoe cease his noisy activity. Ivanhoe approached slowly.

Off in the distance was a high priest carrying a glass onion. Since they couldn't speak, Ivanhoe waited for Jeran to make a move.

Gee, Maybe I should take lead for once, Ivanhoe thought.

Ivanhoe withdrew the Excalibur from its scabbard. It's brilliance definitely caught the attention of the high priest several hundred feet away. Meanwhile Jeran expressed a look displaying the thought of "You moron, what in the heck are you doing?"

After slaying a few more invaders, Ivanhoe took refuge in nondescript room. A body lay on the opposite, still breathing. Ivanhoe tossed a bucket of murky water toward the man, which provoked him to waking up.

"I already told you," he panicked, "Vlad went below with the fighters."

Ivanhoe unsheathed his sword, causing the man to become even more frightened.

"I don't like slaying people. Now who is this Vlad?" asked Ivanhoe, etching marks into the ground.

"He..he's the high priest of...TM." the man replied rapidly.

Ivanhoe frowned. During his times with the Anama, Ivanhoe paid little attention the the Spiderweb Pantheon. However, he had sufficient knowledge of TM.

Ivanhoe prodded the ground with additional etchings, "Now, tell me, where is a fountain."

The man simply pointed in the direction.

Ivanhoe walked cautiously in that direction. Sure enough there was a fountain. He quickly washed the blood from his sword, as the liquid had obscured its brilliance.

Ivanhoe heard Jeran in the distance. Based on the man's reaction, Ivanhoe guessed Jeran had already grasped a hold of him. Ivanhoe ran towards the sound of Jeran, if they were going to deal with a priest of TM Jeran would certainly need help.

I assumed there were more than a few invaders at the chapel. Anyways, they're in small groups.

Ivanhoe hesitated, "We have easily disposed of them. I feel that some greater power is at hand, we must proceed with caution."

I thought Rentar-Ihrno died in Avernum 3. She did reappear as an apparition, but having never played A4 or A5 I wouldn't know.

The vahnatai are overrated.

Ok, I just thought of a place in Avernum 3. There's a whole bunch of dervishes camped near Blackcrag Fortress. I was incapable of destroying their whole camp, so is it possible to do so?

Most bots list their occupation as "human" or "porn." Favorite Spidweb game and real name are almost always listed as their user name. Their location, e-mail, and interests are always random.

Nalyd conducted funeral rites if you wish to see them.

During the forum's death, it became flooded with spam and the like.

Ivanhoe sheathed his sword for the purpose of concealment. He contorted himself into a niche in the wall, constricting his breathing to undetectable levels.

Several iron clad mace bearers entered his peripheral vision. Ivanhoe ceased movement altogether waiting for them to pass. After a short duration of time his target came into view.

Ivanhoe leaped out, slaying two priests in one strike. A mage several yards behind him volleyed a fire bolt towards him. Ivanhoe riposted the blow, swinging the ball of flame towards the several warriors rushing him. The warriors screaming, as they were seared to death.

Ivanhoe threw the now scalding hot Excalibur towards the mage. The blow obliterated the man's pelvis. Ivanhoe sprinted towards his weapon, avoiding several arrows directed towards him. Ivanhoe picked up a dead mans shield and charged. However, just before the Excalibur dealt a blow do one of his foes, Jeran appeared from nowhere and slew them.

"You just had to do that, didn't you?" Ivanhoe asked. Ivanhoe tossed the bloody shield he was holding at a bony torch. The torch didn't respond.

"Eh, I was bored. You know, I've never seen a control foes spell." Jeran replied.

"That takes all the fun out of it. Anyways, my prayer energy is exhausted from healing that prophet or whatever you call it."

Ivanhoe skulked further into the chapel. He thought he heard Jeran behind him, but the ancient hallways could probably echo footsteps from anywhere in the chapel.

I enjoyed Salmon's 3456 milestone, especially the flying turtle.

Unfortunately, the number of bots has been increasing at a near exponential rate. Hopefully someone will place prevention measures to keep the bots out. However, most of the bots never post.

Lord Putidus is a great beginner scenario, even though Kelandon suggests using a prefabricated party. If you start with that scenario, you still have a decent level of skill in thrown missiles after continuing on to another.

Have you e-mailed Jeff by any chance?

Many laptops I've seen have numeric keyboards that work only if number lock is on. However, I highly doubt you wouldn't have noticed that already.

Ivanhoe withdrew his sword, illuminating the room. "I'm with you Jeran, Dazzle would you care to join us?"

Ivanhoe followed Jeran's lead, he could hear voices around the corner, but left the decision up to Jeran. Ivanhoe wasn't to worried about Dazzle, he could certainly catch up when he wanted.

No, some of us aren't bots, so I estimate at about 10000.
