The Flitchaye - Dibbun Slavers TP LOG

The Flitchaye was relaxing in their camp and ever so often purposely scared one of their latest captives, a small hare dibbun. The hedgehog they keep their distance from, least now they do, the chieftain comes forward "Youwa our captivefurs now ha ha...we D'Flicthaye!"   

Matilda glared at the tribe of vermin "Yeah ya repeated that ...why don't you come a little closer to the cage,then I will show you why this was a bad idea"
   
Keldorn went with the group to help free the captives, he stayed close and a blade at his side"So, what be the plans to handle the vermin, I have heard much about them.They like to put victums asleep,sometimes or  just keep captive to torure for a while, all ends in torture usually"   
   
Tenzin nods "Flitchaye they are called, or that's what someone else said, they ran into them before some seasons ago,the camp is close too just be carefull, we may be able to scare them hopefully"   

   
Zolomon nods "I am very willing to fill some of these pests with arrows"
   
   
Ciocan nods "We be careful if we do surprise them all the better for  us, someone needs to find where they keep captives and the rest of us can take care of these vermin, I rather they not stick around and harm anyone else"   
   
The Flitchaye are not expecting any more company as some sleep. A couple guards the entry of the camp and one guards the cage that has Matilda and Ciana in it.   
   
Varus is leading the rescue group as they sneak toward the camp, trying to avoid making any noise at all."   
   
Ciana cries a little and snuggles close to Matilda who just keeps an eye on the guard and scans the area, then examines the cage to see if there is any way to loose the lock without being noticed.
   
Keldorn hmmms softly, he whispers "Two..guards....no clue how many others or where captives would be"   
   
Tenzin nods, he smirks "I say slip in and look...maybe a back entry"He slips off quietly to find a back entrance to the camp, there likely is one after all.   
   
Zolomon has his longbow ready as he aims towards one of the guards in the front but he doesn't fire off the arrow just yet.   
   
Ciocan watches the two main guards "Likely more inside yes,need to take care of these two, both so no alarms are yelled out.Then slip in...and attack"   
   
The two guards look tried and distracted by a moth of some sort. Luckily they don't have their sleeping herbs out, least yet.   
   
Tenzin finds a back way in and only one guard, make that one dead guard as the sea otter stabs the vermin beast in the neck and watches them fall over dead. He chuckles as he walks towards voices "Time to slay some vermin"   
   
Zolomon waits on a signal and then fires off his longbow, he quickly reloads his longbow to fire off a 2nd arrow at the other guard before they hopefully alert others.   
   
Ciocan grips his hammer and walks forwards with the group of rescuers, he is not gonna put up with troublesome vermin, he has had enough of troublesome vermin ruining the peace.   
   
Varus gives the signal and sneaks toward the camp, running his sword through the first guard he finds.   

Matilda sighs, not much she can do while the guard is watching her, she does make sure Ciana stays close though, and stays calm as well. She softly hums to the hare dibbun.   
   
The one guard is killed by an arrow to the chest, the other is half-asleep, till his friend dies and then starts to call out but instead a gagging sound as the arrow hits his throat, A 3rd notices and DOES yell out, least somewhat "YAYYY...."The yell dies out as Varus stabs the vermin in the side and it's dead. Inside the camp are a little less than 3 dozen Flitchaye and their chieftain!   
   
Keldorn frowns "Well...guess we attck then" He sidesteps one that gets an attack in  and slices at their leg."Don't let them get any of those herbs of thiers!"   
   
Tenzin meanwhile stabs a Flitchaye beast and sneaks up on the one facing the cage, he stabs the beast in the back and speaks "Hello matey...."He looks at the hedgehog and the dibbun and grins "Miss me?"He looks at the lock and picks it with his dagger and upon opening the cage he hands off the hedgehog's blade "Ya droped this yesterday lass sure ya want it back, here"   
   
Zolomon takes a deep breath and fires off an arrow at any of the Flitchaye that get too close, he has a saber and will use it if he needs to, otherwise, his weapon of choice is his arrows and fighting from a distance for now.   
   
Ciocan charges into the main area of the camp where the Flitchaye is completely surprised! He swings his hammer left and right and sends the vermin flying. Matilda meanwhile has back the Blade of Martin and smiles at the sea otter "Right now let's get out of here."She looks to
Ciana and then Tenzin "Get her out of here and let the rest of us handle this, that dibbun is your main concern right now Tenzin,understand?"   

   
The Flitchaye chieftain gasps and quickly gets his pole, trying to light the herbs at the end "AAAAAAA....killya killya killem killem!!!" He says as he watches a couple of his own beast fall, he decides to forget the fact his captives are free, he can worry on that later"Gemum Getum!!!!"   
   
Keldorn slices at another and looks towards the main vermin"Well we know who is in charge now,don't we"   
   
Varus dispatches two more vermin, whittling down the chieftain's protectors just as fast as they start to fight back. These primitive vermin don't really stand a chance against a well-trained Long Patrol officer.   
   
Tenzin frowns and looks like he rather fights,he looks down at Ciana and sighs as he bends down to scoop her up "Come on little lass,lets let de others have all de fun" He goes the way he came, he does flick his dagger at one that charges him and snorts, he bends down and gets his dagger from the vermin's chest and kicks it as he quickly gets back to the path to the river.   
   
Zolomon sidesteps one of the Flitchaye beasts and gets a slice to his lower arm. He then backs up and quickly gets his saber to behead the creature and laughs "Ha....I've gotten better at useing a blade."   
   
None of the Flitchaye  want to get close to the badger at all and quickly run from him, sadly, for them, a couple of  them run right into Matilda's waiting blade, one gets brave and charges Ciocan only to be sent flying into a tree by his hammer   
   
The chieftain starts to panic a little, so far no good beasts have been slain but a lot of his have. Yes, there are a couple of woodlanders wounded and the chieftain is failing at getting the herbs light. He finally does and grins "Hahahah...D'Fliitchaye gonna winwin now, yous so deaded dead!!"   
   
Keldorn stabs another Flitchaye beast and looks towards the chieftain, "Really?"   
   
There is maybe a dozen and a half now of Flitchaye left   
   
Ciana looks at Tenzin and smiles, even hugging him as he gets her to a safer place.
   
Varus doesn't know what the fire could possibly mean, but he knows it can't be anything good. "Tahget th' Leadah! Take 'im out!"   
   
Tenzin looks down at the hare dibbun and frowns, he dislikes hugs and has even said this several times but he just nods and gets to where the camp is and sits the little hare down"Stay..."He starts to head back and then sighs as he sits down, he will stay also, he was asked to watch her..even though others are at the camp now wanting to know details, the otter shrugs he has none yet he is just here as he was asked to keep an eye on the dibbun.   
   
Zolomon frowns, he is not too close to the leader or he would fire off an arrow, he does fire one and ends the life of another Flitchaye beast but he needs a good opening to take out the chieftain  or least wound him.   
   
Ciocan swings his hammer again at some advancing Vermin and looks to where the leader is at.   
   
Matilda tries to get closer to the leader but other Flitchaye goes to attack her.   
   
The chieftain backs up as some more fall, one runs in fact and is likely smarter than most of the Flitchaye here. A dozen and the chieftain are left, he grins as goes to wave the smoking pole of herbs at whoever gets too close "Ha ha....youa needa sleepfast now!"   
   
Keldorn coughs as he gets to close and backs up a little, he shakes his head and backs up now"D..Don't...breath that stuff...in"He coughs and tries to place a rag over his mouth now flighting an urge to sleep, falling asleep now would be very dangerous.   
   
"Zolomon! Shoot 'im! Now!" Varus yells, keeping his distance from the enemy, and gesturing for the other hares to keep back.   
   
Zolomon takes careful aim as others back off, he frowns noticing Keldorn in trouble but focuses on the leader of the Flichaye only and notices he has a clear shot as no other Flitchaye are getting close to that smoking herb pole. He then lets his arrow fly straight and true!   
   
Ciocan slams his hammer into one of the Flitchaye that get too brave and steps back a little when the leader waves around the long pole. Matilda beheads another vermin beast and keeps clear of being too close to where the leader is right now.   
   
The Flitchaye leader chuckles and cackles and then the smoking herbs, pole, and all fall from his grip as the arrow sinks into his chest. He gets a look of surprise frozen on his face and falls off his tree perch dead as a doornail! The 6 Flitchaye left instantly stop fighting and look in shock and horror as their leader falls dead. They drop any daggers and pikes they have and flee into the woods.   
   
Keldorn backs away more from the smoking pole and stumbles a few feet away still coughing and ends up passing out from the smoking herbs.   
   
Tenzin remains at the camp and paces now, he slaps away a paw of one of the other hares and paces more, looks at the path, and paces more muttering how he should of just went back there and helped.   
   
Zolomon fires off an arrow at one of the running beasts just for the heck of it, he snorts slightly and starts to go towards Keldorn and then frowns as he wonders what to do about the smoking herbs.   
   
Varus sheathes his sword and looks around, counting heads. "Huzzah. I do believe we took no casualties."   
   
One Flitchaye is hit with the arrow and falls over, the last 4 disappear deep into the woods and likely won't be anywhere near the river, or other places, a long long while.   
   
Ciocan watches them go and nods "Yes, very good."He looks towards where Keldorn is and looks around for something to cover up the smoking herbs with. Matilda finds a bucket with water and holding her breath gets close and puts the flaming herbs out, then quickly places the bucket over them and backs away coughing slightly..."We can check on that later" She does go to check on Keldorn though to make sure he is ok.   
   
Keldorn has a pulse, he is fine and in fact, makes a weak sort of grumble. The sleeping herbs will likely make him a little ill and knocked out a couple of hours, otherwise he should be fine in about a day or less.   
   
Zolomon steps forwards as he looks around the camp "So...back to our own camp then?"He kicks a rock "i do hope the rest of teh trip is bally wIll peaceful, we have thee a week correct?"   
   
Ciocan speaks "From Redwall...yes"He leads the way back towards the camp "We shal rest for a couple of days and then head to the abbey, should be there in a week's  time , you are correct...give or take a day .We rest a couple of days as I said and head on up river, we are good on supplies. We can go out to gather anything from the woods maybe, and there is always fishing"   
   
One of the healers that came along will tend to Keldorn once the group gets back to camp. There are shrimp and fish in the river, and nearby were some berry bushes, walnuts, and some watercress that could help the supplies go further.   

Varus leads the hares back to their camp and sets up a watch for the rest of the night.   
   
Tenzin is glad everyone if back safe and sound and likes the idea of a couple day rest along the river. He seems unsure of whether he will stay but one never knows, he might stay and he might not...for now he will get a nap in.   
   
Zolomon sits down, he will help with watch duty when told it's his turn. They are likely fine but it never hurts to make sure.   
   
Ciocan updates the others before heading to his own tent to rest. A couple of days rest will be good he has decided, to get some rest needed so the hares and others are prepared to finish the trip to Redwall. A rest also lets anyone wounded or tried from the Flitchaye, to recover as he knows Matilda and Ciana need it and now Keldorn. The others will enjoy the two-day rest also, then its back to the task at paw...getting the dibbuns and others home to Redwall
