The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

The Lost Tale Of Eymreil

Kyo decided to look up at him, showing more of his Rabbit features, due to similar features they can share. - "That entices us? well, I think we should wait for the rest of our group to show up after their own... business they have to take care about now. But as long as you are not related to slavers, then that is a good thing for me" - but the curiosity is starting to gain the best of Kyo.

Qa'Meret looked at Walker and he grinned to see someone with those great aiming skills. But there wa sno time to celebrate anything, this situation has only just started and it is a matter of time for him to fight again. Funny enough, the last time this Khajiit did have a serious fight against other people (and no monsters like in the tunnels) was to save Kyo from a group of slavers.

any extra gold, would be appreciated, goodness knows, we can use it. how far is Azihara from here?" dru Essa asked ' Since you are here for reasons of your own, i will respect that. No need to pry into the business of others, if you can avoid it.' Dru Essa shrugged. thee are others in our group, but they are nor present at the moment. they are.. on an errand from the current count, and as you might imagine its worth quite a bit of gold. One could call us mercenaries, and we'll accept that title, if for no other reason, that no other moniker really applies.

Its a long story, suffice to say the ruler of this region is a deranged lunatic .. that some of us have had dealings with previously. the others can tell you more, but i think they'd be interested in hearing what you have to say' Dru essa replied.

"RIght." Chaka said, casting a bound weapon so she could use that to fight the bandit.  She kept her other hand free to cast spells if needed.  She turned sideways she'd present less of a target to the bandit as she sliced at him with her sword.

nicula cast a fireball from her blae, striking the bandit smack in the face and singing his armor to boot. a few swings was all it took, to kill him, and nicula rifled through his belongs. 8 golds, a vial of healing and a few bottles of mead was all this bloke had. typical' Nicula sighed as she put her findings away. she then turned to help Chaka, if she needed it.

Chaka fought with the bandit using just her bound sword.  Then she took a step so her front was facing him and with her other hand let loose with a lighting bolt, hitting him.  The damage from her sword, combined with her lightning was enough to do him in.  She kept her bound sword drawn and started to see what sorts of stuff he had.  A few gold, his normal quality axe, some food a bottle of liquor and in a pocket a bit of skooma.  "Looks like he used skooma." She said to Nicula.

Qa'Meret noted the noise coming from another side of the fort. - "the others started the attack." - he mumbled to the other members of the sneaking group, then the Khajiit separated from the group and started walking silently through a corridor, task made easier by the attacking group. He then heard some bandits exclaiming they were under attack and how several were running to where the riot is. Qa'Meret took his chance with a bandit that stayed behind to guard the stair to one of the guard towers, he came closer from behind and with a swift jump he landed just behind the bandit, placing both arms around the unfortunate person's neck and snapping it. The Khajiit just sighed as he placed the body to a side and signaling the others to come closer.

In the mean time, Kyo looked back at Journey with some curiosity since he cut his words. - "is everything ok?" - he then looked his reaction to the new people that entered the inn. - "ehh.... how is your lunch, Feli?" - he asked as he quickly looked at the young Khajiit and trying to act naturally.

Dar maa and Sed Nues quickly followed Qamaret as they headed down the passage further into the fort.
_ nicula headed down another passage as she heard voices approaching ' intruders! Find them! Kill them, Strip their bodies of their skins! cried one voice.

Chaka put the Skomma and the small bottle it was in into a belt pouch.  "To bad it's not moon sugar instead, there are a number of useful potions that you can use moon sugar to make." She said.  She cast a spell to summon a frost Atronach, instead of a fire one, since being a melee type it may help to keep some of the bandits off of them.  

----

Walker throw both of his chakrams at 2 different bandits, looking around to see what their current state was and how many they were facing at the moment and if anyone looked like they needed help.

we don't" Dru Essa said . ' but if they are as fearsome as you say, then we'd better check out. just as soon as we have a free moment, and they are not looking at us. We're not famous, at least yet. which is a good thing, but i'd favor discussing it in safety, rather than in the open."

"Dru Essa is correct..." - Kyo said. - "no bounty posters mention us specifically, but i agree we should leave, there is something scary about those two humans." - the Rabbit kid said as he did his best acting naturally and eating some of his salad. He is also wondering what is Feli thinking.

Qa'Meret, in the mean time, kept running around some corridors, very fast yet very silently as he dodged all obstacles, he then stopped near a semi-open door, fom which two bandits were putting on some armor and getting their weapons ready, they obviously were caught sleeping when the attack started. Without wasting any time, he ran inside stabbing one of the badints with his sword, the other bandit attacked back only to swing his sword against his own partner as Qa'Meret used him as a shield.

"Damned beast! you'll pay for this!" - the remaining bandit yelled at the Khajiit, charging without hesitation, looking for revenge.

better finish eating them head out' Dru Essa said to kyo. ' she kept her head down as she ate, trying to keep to heself.
Dae very gradually wrapped his feet with the banadaghes the guards had left for it. with all the wounds on his body,he looked like a draugr, but that couldnt be helped. ' dae was honestl hoping that the others would complete thier quest soon, he wasnt sure he could enduee another interrogation like the one he had just survived.

 the bandits blade was parried by Dar maa who had come up behind Qamaret and was now assisting in taking down the bandits.

Qa'Meret looked at Dar Maa. - "Hello, it is always nice to have a teammate to help fight bandits." - he said with a grin as her arrival did gave him precious seconds to get his sword from the corpse of the first badit and to get ready for the second bandit in that room.

Kyo nodded to Dru Essa's idea and kept eating, as he might need the extra energy if something happens. He was also thinking about the group fighting in the fort, he is wondering how are they doing. He then closed his eyes and focused for a little bit, he managed to see, for a moment what his dragon was seeing, he then opened his eyes and mumbled to Dru Essa. - "My dragon is arriving to the fort now, I told it to find Qa'Meret."

Walker got into a more zen type of frame of mind, his mind relaxed and not thinking, his eyes open and unblinking most of the time as he threw a chakram, using the 2nd one as a melee weapon as he attacked a bandit who had charged him.   Using it to slice at the bandit's weapon arm he used his other hand to hit his weapon arm away and then thrust his hand at the person's face.

-----------

Chaka saw her Ice Astronach was attacking a bandit.  She came up behind the same bandit and started to attack him behind, thinking it should take less time and effort to do away with this bandit then to fight another on her own as well as may as well make the most use of her Ice astronach for the time it lasted.

Dru Essa suggested. tonight, we could stay in a different hotel.

Walker threw his chakram as he used that hand to block a bandit, his chakram slicing through the bowstring of another bandit who had been taking aim at one of the group members.  The chakram he still held he used to block the sword of the same bandit he was fighting, sparks flying as metal hit metal.  He punched the guy in the nose before catching his returning charkam.  He kicked his leg then one chakram sliced at his chest,t the other his weapon arm.  

--------------

Chaka continued to attack the same bandit.  His attention divided between the frost atronach and Chaka. She used a cold spray spell on the bandit, before stabbing at him with her bound sword, the frost atronach hitting with him as well, both taking him down before to long.

"I don't think those two humans will recognize us unless they see us with the humans in the poster, so i see no reason to change the place we are staying tonight." - Kyo said as he tried to keep eating his food. - "But Journey needs a good hiding place, but I don't know this city so I cannot suggest anything." - the kid sighed as he kept his head lowered under the hood.

Qa'Meret was ready to fight what he thought was the last bandit in that place. But more bandits came following the heroes to that very room. - "Well, Dar Maa, it looks like the real fight starts now." - he then sighed as he took a defensive stance. - "so much for sneaking."

-

Just then, the last bandit was run through by a greatsword, in the hands of John.

"Hate to be a cheap-shot, but we have a deadline." He muttered, withdrawing his sword from the bandit's body.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Ashnii let out a painful moan, the man in hood had violated her, until she could hardly whimper. The khajiit looked down to see the blood still dripping from between her legs.

"I can't die here, not like this." Was all she managed to say.

----------------------------------------------------------------

"Although, I have reason to believe that those two are on to us." Feli whispered.
