“MOVE YOUR SCALY BUTTS!” shouted Zundar.  He kicked a few of the Ramia warriors in the butt as they were fumbling around the place. The main force of panicked Ramia warriors tried to create some semblance of a formation under the guidance of Chief Raibread before the Infected could reach them. Fluffball, already full-sized, was running behind the battle line …

Bam!  A heavy blow from a one-handed war hammer slammed into the chest of a Skinny Grunner.  Crack! The blow to the chest hit the core gem causing it to crack wide open.

“…be sure to keep buying all the supplies that Grand elder Hegir and the others need for their research,” said Akira.

He pulled out a random red scroll from the bottom of the stack scrolls. The red scroll looked to be rather ragged and ready to fall apart. Ding! You have …

“Where’s Zundar?” asked Akira, interrupting Samuel who was listing off all Kodria’s small matters that needed his attention. “He should be at the trade plaza across the lake,” said Samuel. “I’ll take a look at everything you have for me when I get back,” said Akira. He gave a wave to Samuel and left the room that was supposed to …

Another hour passed as Klyn and Grand elder Hegir, along with the other shaman, continued inspecting the unconscious Fluffball, trying to glean anything new that would help them in their research. Walking up the short flight of stairs, Akira left the dark underground room and stepped out into the castle courtyard carrying a bundled blanket. He found Captain Pegleg standing …
