Troll Wars 2: Torn Families 1
Morning of day 20 of Weeping Skies of the year 184
Inner Courtyard
Spotlessly clean cobblestones make up the floor of the inner
courtyard. A high domed glass ceiling lets in the sun shine in
through with colorful brilliance. Brother Kadfail lies here
dead with his throat slit open.
Nobunaga walks in with a smile, which quickly dwindles as he looks around.
Bordelaise reaches out for Nobunagas hand
Bordelaise says 'Times are bad'
Bordelaise says 'Kadfail is dead'
Bordelaise says 'And so are others in the other guilds'
Nobunaga takes Bordelaise's hand into his own.
Nobunaga asks 'Who did this?'
Bordelaise says 'Trolls'
Bordelaise says 'But they cant have been alone'
Bordelaise moves her Weathered Book to her right hand
Bordelaise says 'This booklet has been found'
Nobunaga asks 'What does it say?'
Bordelaise says 'Its in their hideous language, but it seems to be
instructions'
Bordelaise says 'It speaks of "face blacking paint"'
Bordelaise opens the weathered book and turns to the page she has
been able to read
The scroll says...
The writing is hard to read as it's scribed in Troll, however
You see some familiar words about "Black Face Paint"
Nobunaga gives a thoughtful "Hmm..."
Bordelaise says 'They stole our armour'
Bordelaise says 'They stole recipes for pastes'
Bordelaise says 'They have emptied the weapon cabinets of the fighters'
Nobunaga says 'Then this was simply a preliminary attack.'
Bordelaise says 'Yees.'
Bordelaise says 'It is also said that they used advanced tactics in
their attack'
Bordelaise says 'More advanced than anything that has ever been
seen of their own'
Nobunaga says 'This is truly strange...'
Bordelaise looks very tired from all the killing that has taken place
Nobunaga kneels before the body of Brother Kadfail.
Nobunaga says 'A kind man..this should not have happened.'
Bordelaise says 'Dark days are upon us...your words sound even more
true after this'
Murzad asks 'When did the trolls attack us?'
Bordelaise says 'Just a few days ago'
Murzad says 'Don't try it whilst i'm here do they'
Bordelaise says 'You wouldnt have had a chance if what I have heard
is true'
Bordelaise says 'I hear Arlinn and Vorlock were out manouvered like
had they just joined the guild'
Murzad says 'Only troll i can't handle is troll king i think'
Nobunaga says 'With this assistance they have...it would be quite
difficult to defend against.'
Nobunaga asks 'So now the question would be, who would aid them?'
Murzad says 'Dragons they have attack with before'
Nobunaga gives a thoughtful "Hmm..."
The soft smell of herbs roll through the guild.
You nod your head at Nobunaga.
Bordelaise says 'I have been pondering on that too'
Bordelaise says 'But Im afraid I cant find any anwers'
Nobunaga asks 'Where is Ayumi?'
Laroon exclaims 'Yery ayumi!!!'
Bordelaise says 'I didnt want her to see this'
Nobunaga nods towards you.
Bordelaise says 'She is with Mrs Tibbs'
Nobunaga says 'Alright.'
Nobunaga puts his arm around Bordelaise.
Bordelaise looks as stern and determined as she has the last
few days...but a little more secure
Nobunaga says 'I do all I can, love.'
Nobunaga kisses Bordelaise on the forehead.
A normal female voice Guild Shouts
Nobunaga asks 'How can I make you smile?'
Bordelaise looks at the ground and sighs
Bordelaise says 'I dont know...'
Bordelaise drifts off into deep thoughts
