RP channel logs: Gethrk,
Salmissra
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): The man, hidden
in the growing shadows, waited for the sun to set. He stares at
the building ahead of him, pondering his task.
[RP]:
Gethrk on his knees praying to the gods above for help, mutters
under his breath 'I know I can learn eventually,
just give me a chance!' and no more is heard aloud
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): When it is totally
dark, he lithely climbs off the roof and down the wall. He draws
up his hood, and steps into the shadow of the pillar.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): Cautiously, he
peers into the entrance of the temple. Clear... except for a young
man kneeling at the far end of the temple.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): Quietly, he slips
into the temple and skirts around the pews, keeping close to the
walls.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): He approaches
the altar, and the young man, silently.
[RP]:
Gethrk, just rising from praying to the gods, all of the sudden
crumples to the ground from something heavy hitting him on the head
and knocking him unconscious.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): The thief stares
down at the 'sleeping' man and grins. He quickly reaches past the
altar and takes the box sitting there.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): He stuffs it into
his pack and trots back to the entrance of the temple. Just as he
is about to step out, he glances over his shoulder.
[RP]:
Gethrk lifts his head off the ground a little bit and looks around,
noticing a shadow figure in the doorway. Trying to get up he falls
again and watches the figure rush out of the doorway
[RP]:
(Eternaal Salmissra): An elderly priest
slowly shuffles via a side corridor and his eyes widened at the
sight of Gethrk, lying on the ground.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): After the initial
shock, the elderly priest hobbles as quick as his aching joints
would allow. 'Gethrk? Boy? What happened?'
[RP]:
Gethrk stirs and looks up at the priest, and says ' A.....
man....... thief!.......' in a rough voice, and the priest
tries to calm him and get some clear answers.
[RP]:
(Gethrk): As the next day comes the priests and guards are all trying
to question the young boy. The priest ushers the boy to bed, telling
him they will deal with the situation soon enough. As he leaves
the room, the priest says to get some rest.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): Someone knocks
at Gethrk's door - three hard, short raps.
[RP]:
Gethrk waking up and stiring slightly he answers the door.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): 'You
are Gethrk?' asks a middle-aged man, dressed in boiled leathers
and chainmail.
[RP]:
Gethrk nods at the new face.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): He smiles slightly.
'Must be tiring after all the questions. I'm
afraid I have a few of my own. May I come in?'
[RP]:
Gethrk nods slowly at the man, and steps back to let him through
the doorway.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): He hefts a waxed
bundle in his hand as he enters, and sits down on a chair.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): 'Let's
deal with the introductions. I'm Zoltan, Sergeant in the Sendar
City Guard.' Zoltan pauses, and unwraps the bundle. 'Want
some bread to eat?'
[RP]:
Gethrk says 'Sure'
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): The Sendar guard
offers a bun to Gethrk. 'So you say you were
knocked out, and when you woke a man was leaving the temple. Can
you describe him?'
[RP]:
Gethrk says 'Not really, he was covered in
a cloak, and i was still drowzy.'
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): Zoltan frowns,
tearing a piece off the bun he is holding. 'A box was taken. Hm.
We'll have to conduct an investigation. Do you mind if you came
with us? It's dangerous, but maybe you can identify the man.'
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): He pops the piece
of bun into his mouth.
[RP]:
Gethrk says 'Sure, I'll come with if it helps
catch the thief!'
[RP]:
(Gethrk): Gethrk takes a bite off of his bun, and swallows loudly.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): Zoltan slowly
nods. 'Can you use a weapon?'
[RP]:
Gethrk nods and says ' Yes, I'm somewhat skilled
with a dagger.'
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): The man's weathered
face breaks into a smile. 'Good. You'll be
of some use in a fight.' He stands up, and looks at the Sendar
closely. 'You better start packing. I suspect
we'll have some travelling to do.'
[RP]:
Gethrk as he nods to the guard he raises and walks over to a chair
with some clothes on it and puts them into a sack that he is carrying
around.
[RP]:
(Eternal Salmissra): Zoltan gulps down
the last of the buns and watches the young man's movements closely.
[RP]:
Gethrk then turns to the table and grabs his dagger, and he puts
it into his belt.
