Found, Helped, But Zaram Is Hurt!(Redemption Of Marek TP)
In the woods of Mossflower, first a camp and then near a clearing of sorts….wow these woods are LARGE!
Irinevok grins down at Marek, most of the way out is covered now, “Hope ya having fun down there Marek, this is your grave now as when the last bit of this is covered your air slowly goes away” He tilts his head “And you die”
Marek frowns “You want me, not Scioto’s daughter.” He sounds defeated and down, still depressed over Reseda.
Irinevok shrugs “Oh well, it’s her grave too.” He then backs off as the last bit is covered “Goodnight Marek..” Then evil laughter is heard and it fades leaving just the young cat Blisa and the stoat Marek alone in the dark.
Meanwhile unknowns is the fact a mole is following a bird “Do..slow go.” He speaks in broken common as he tries to keep up with the hawk.
Scioto and about 5 guards are with him as he looks around “Are you sure you saw them?”
Boaz nods “Boaz saw..Boaz take to them..”
Irinevok is close with his group of beasts, an over happy grin on his face. He doesn’t see Scioto as he skips along “Hee heee…The stoat is dead, the stupid stoat…hee hee the stupid stoat is dead!”
Scioto hides behind a tree and nods to the guards to hide as well, so they do so and he watches the insane mouse skip off and frowns, “Dead?” He whispers and looks the direction they came from and quickly heads that way quietly and as quietly as he can.
Boaz follows and flaps from tree to tree and tilts his head.
Zaram catches up and pants “Zurrr..you’re going too…fast yeah?”
Before them is an odd pile of logs, dirt, leaves and signs of an old steel grate of some sort and signs of a campfire put out recently. This was a camp and not just any camp..Irinevok's camp! It’s not been too long, DUHH..that he left. Some areas of the covered up grate shows small holes forming as if some of it caved into something hollow?
Scioto frowns and looks at the grate signs and looks around “But where are they?” He then drops to his knees as a thought comes to his mind “No..no no no…”
Zaram looks around and then places an ear to the ground and then his mole skills kick in and he backs up and quickly starts digging a hole, he makes a sort of slant like tunnel and he can move fairly fast it seems. He doesn’t stop for a good 10 minutes till he breaks threw to where Blisa and Marek are and steps over to check on them.
Boaz stays where he is and gets out of the way once of flying dirt and tilts his head and simply watches the dirt fly from the hole with great interest.
Marek is beside Blisa, whom he has not woken up, he has checked her for a pulse off and on and looks ready to pass out, he blinks when he sees light and there is air..sweet air! He coughs and lifts Blisa up as he sees Zaram he smiles “Zaram!”
Scioto ears perk and he demands a guard go down there when he hears Marek’s voice, one of the guards get Blisa from Marek and quickly get her to the surface, Scioto ears go flat as the guard checks his daughter and nods “She is alive sir” Scioto sighs in relieve for this and looks down the hole, “Marek! You ok?” He looks to the guards, he sends two off to Ferravale with Blisa “Get her home, do it now! I will catch up soon I need to find that insane mouse and KILL HIM!”
Zaram smiles and hugs Marek, he then helps him back to the surface as they are both covered in dirt. He nods to Scioto “Marek beum right ere zurr” He reverts back to mole, something he does when nervous and worried. “We..need..go now”
Boaz tilts his head as he speaks “I help find mouse, mouse is bad mousie need go away. Me hunt him now” He flies off in search of where they last seen the insane mouse.
Marek is back on the surface and coughs, he nods to Scioto “I..am fine now, thank you and you as well Zaram, you have always been there for me my friend”
Scioto speaks with the 3 guards still here and walks back over to Marek “Any idea where Irinevok is heading off to now, I want him dead he just about killed my daughter” He barely controls the anger building up inside him.
Zaram smiles and lets the cat and stoat talk to one another as he stays off to the side. He is not too worried on the tunnel into the pit, he can have it filled in later maybe. Right now he checks Marek over to make sure he is ok as the mole does know healer skills.
Marek answers “I am unsure where that insane beast went. Probably towards Ferravale if he thought me and your daughter dead. And you forget Mr. Scioto…I want Irinevok dead as well so maybe it’s a who gets to him first.” Cold hate for the mouse is in his voice. “I need my crossbow, and my blade..” He goes to look for them as he knows they are most likely at Ferravale as he only had a simple blade with him when he was caught.
Scioto folds his arms over his chest and goes to head back towards Ferravale, “We find him and take care of this threat together and I could care less that gets to or doesn’t get to kill that insane mouse.”
Marek is listening as they walk along the path, he is good at tracking and looks around, his ears and eyes open as he is fully alert.
Not too far away is Irinevok, he raises an eyebrow as he singles his beasts to stop and looks around, he gets a surprise and his eye goes wide “Marek is alive? Well…I will have to make sure he is dead myself then, separate his head from his body and keep it as a trophy..” He smirks and laughs insanely. He also spots the mole and grins “But first a little more….mental pain for our stoat” A ferret archer is beside him as the mouse speaks , “Kill the mole” The archer nods and goes to follow the group as the mouse just chuckles insanely “Soon Marek…SOON!”
Zaram is getting tried and given up on catching up to Marek now and looks for a place to sit down on a fallen log.
Scioto growls and wages his tail as he gets close to the dirt road, why..why is the stoat so annoying today he seems to ask himself. They are half way between Ferravale and the abbey now, but he wishes to go him now not the abbey.
Marek is ahead of the cat and his guards, he is close to the mouse or so he hopes he is. He has found one weasel and killed it, and he found a couple rats and now has a long sword and some throwing daggers.
The ferret archer aims for Zaram and waits for the right moment and fires off an arrow, this is not one of the best archers the mouse has but he is still fairly good.
Zaram wipes his brow and goes to move as a grasshopper hops along the log and a good thing he moved as the arrow was aimed for his chest, it hits him in the shoulder and he cries out and falls backwards off the log. The arrow is in deep and it hurts badly.
Scioto is not too close to where the mole is.
Marek is for sure close to the mole “Zaram!” He scans the area and sees the archer and growls dangerously and goes to flick both daggers at the ferret and then slice at the ferrets neck “How..DARE you!
The ferret has little time to think or react when stoat comes after him, the ferret loses his head as the head rolls to the forest floor and the two daggers bury their self in his chest and is clearly dead.
Zaram looks up and shivers “Sir….?” He is alive but clearly in pain and it would be hard to remove the arrow, he has lost some blood also but is clearly luckily to be alive.
Scioto rushes over with the 3 guards and they scan the area, he sees the headless ferret and raises an eyebrow, and then sees Marek and the fact Zaram is injured by the arrow and frowns “I..Don’t have a healer with me, he was the only one…and the master healer is dead in Ferravale, he would need to be taken to the abbey.”
Marek tears up as he is reminded of Reseda and nods. “Yes…he will, I will take him the gates are bared to me, not him. I am not allowed inside it does not mean he cannot go inside. I will hand him over to the guards to take inside..I..I got to go!” He scoops up Zaram and rushes off quickly, he can run fast when he needs to. He stops by the gates and speaks to one of the guards “I know I am not allowed but the mole” He hands him to a guard and backs away “Save him please, don’t be against him just because he is with me, he needs Brother Leon’s help..You can send a sparrow with word to Ferravale, I will be there or searching for the beast who caused this.” He turns without another word and walks leaving two very confused guards who didn’t get a chance to even speak, but they do quickly get the mole to the infirm.
RW Abbey: Infirmary ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Several beds are lined against the red sandstone walls of the Abbey's Infirmary. An examination table, separated from the rest of the room by hanging blankets, rests against the far wall. Tucked into a small alcove is a sizeable workbench with various containers for mixing and preparing medicinal compounds. Against another wall is a desk for use by the Infirmary Keeper. A curtained off alcove behind the desk hides a locked door to the Infirmary's supplies and linens. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Exits: Infirmary [Rec]overy Room, [H]ealer's [D]ormitory, [O]pen [G]round, [Hall]
Zaram is carried into the room by the guard that was on duty, he quietly speaks with the novice. The mole has an arrow deep in his upper arm, some cuts and bruises but nothing is too serious but that arrow needs out for sure.
Rayen goes to look at the arrow and frowns, she then nods to a novice helping her, "Get me something to carefully remove the arrow, and then apply pressure to the wound, it’s not in a vital spot but still care is needed." The novice nods as they go to help and work slowly, once the arrow is out pressure is applied to stop the bleeding.
Zaram tenses up as the arrow is removed and mutters something as he is half awake and half not awake. He should live but his arm will hurt most likely when he wakes up.
Rayen sews the wound and applies any needed herbs and bandages the arm carefully and steps back as she glances at a novice "I..guess, we can send word to Ferravale that the mole is ok, he will need to stay a few days though" the novice nods and heads off to speak to a sparrow on a message as the fox sits down.
Zaram groans and slips into some tried needed sleep, his arm now bandaged and he will recover in the infirm here and hopefully that message finds its way to his friend Marek.
