[Taocow PBEM] Chapter XVII - On The Border Of Doom

[Koba Rowers]

[Koba]
Shaken and a little battered from bouncing around the back of the ATV at
high speeds Koba finally gets a good look out the window just in time to see
the path close behind them. Normally, an omnious sign like that would worry
him, but at the moment it seems to be working in their favor. Upon ariving
at the camp site, Koba tries to maintain his motion sickness after such a
ride. Including the boat trip, Koba is wondering if he will ever keep a good
meal down.

Upon ariving at the grove of trees, Koba spots Sia talking to a faintly
human looking being covered in bark. Looking around and opening himself to
the inate feelings and thoughts of others, he hopes to get a gut feeling
about this new creature or a sense if others dwarf creatures are in the
area. (OOC: Sense Evil). Trying to rack his mind and remember much of his
studies, Koba tries to remember if he has noticed this type of creature
before in his studies. (OOC: Lore). If things apear to be calm, Koba will go
and check on Osiris to see how he made out after the skirmish.
