Beyond the Veil

The warder swings his axe arm giving Garrosh a bad gash. Darkness closes on his vision but he remains standing. He misses the construct on his turn. Yshven cleaves the warder and the melee norker. A slingers hits the dwarf. The other slingshot sailing ineffectively across the room. The flailer swings for Garrosh but he twists aside. On the floor, Kurgan coughs a gout of blood and lies still.

The warder hits Yshven. Garrosh sees an opening and makes good on a swing, stepping away at the last instant. Yshven takes advantage and connects this time in a shower of sparks and parts. The bronze warder’s reach affords it a swing at the fleeing cleric and Garrosh falls finally, his yelp of pain clipped.  Both swaying Yshven and the warder engage with a flurry, Yshven imbibes a health potion from his belt pouch.

Yshven contends with the Warder, two norker slingers and a flailer. As the situation worsens, he shifts into a more focused form, shrugging off all the pain. This turns the tide. He prevails and end the battle, dropping first the flail norker with a timely hammer strike. Later, another norker slinger is felled with a whopping blow. The bronze warder and the remaining slinger fall before the dwarf’s unyielding constitution.

In the misty room, in a coffer under a bed Yshven finds a hefty amount of coin. A table yields a map of the Nentyr Vale indicating a specific spot as having “Vast power for the taking – Seek Carravacus”; also he finds rituals for Arcane Lock, Brew Potion and Leomund’s Secret. He takes Paldemars’ Staff, as well. He rest til Garrosh and Kurgan come around.
