And don't expect the found treasure to be too large; after all, we faced the goblins of Thistletop back in the first book, when we were pretty low level, so I don't expect it to be any sort of windfall for characters of our level. But still, it's something to make up for my absence.

You're lucky I wasn't 2 levels higher! At that point, I will have taken the Shaping Focus feat, which will allow me to shift into animals as large as Huge or as small as Diminutive, or a small or medium elemental, or a small or medium plant creature. So I could have shaped into a burrowing mouse and Illian never would have known where I went, or even into an earth elemental, which can move through dirt and stone like a fish swims through water, and left no possibility for Anna to follow me at all.

After a long, passionate kiss, she stands back, less than a foot from Eldthor, draws her Keen Dagger, places it in her husbands hand, and pulls it between her breasts, holding it in his hand firmly with both of hers.

"Next time you decide I've betrayed you, do it like this. It hurts less, my love! Do you understand me?"

A small drop of blood drips down from the tip of the dagger as she glares into his eyes.

Eldthor pulls the blade away from his wife, lowering his head in shame. "I'm sorry I... my will was weak... I won't let it happen again."

Kay sheaths her dagger and smiles, Strangely, you can't quite tell where she put it, despite the fact that her clothes don't seem to have many places to hide things. She reaches up and caresses Eldthor's rough, unshaven cheek.

"El... You have the strongest will of anyone I've ever known. I trust you."

[After hearing the story of how they found the treasure.]
Kay sighs contentedly, slipping her arm around Eldthor's and snuggling close to his side. It is clear that her little dramatic moment earlier was either merely for dramatic effect, making sure her husband understood how much she cares, or her natural flair for the dramatic coming out. In any event, no one would be able to tell she had been so upset just a short time ago.

"Even when he's not thinking clearly my husband manages to do amazing things! That was quite a find!" She kisses his cheek and drops her head onto his shoulder, closing her eyes and smiling like a silly-love struck girl...

"Well," she thinks, "I'm a 22 year-old half-elf who's in love... For a half-elf, that really is a girl, so why shouldn't I look like a silly, love-struck girl... Other than the silly part... I should probably avoid looking silly... But if I try for anything else I'll probably just fail right now, so to hell with it! I might as well tell him why I'm acting like this... then maybe I'll stop feeling so giddy and foolish..."

Kay pushes a little closer to Eldthor, turns, and lifts her head up. From other people's perspective, it might look like she is just flirting and she expects some of them are turning away and wondering when she'll drag him up to their room. The thought does send a little flutter through her chest... well... it starts there...

Knowing she has his attention, she whispers, so only he can hear, "You have no idea how happy it made me to hear you casually say the words, 'back home to Sandpoint', my love!" She nibbles his earlobe. "I know you don't really like cities, but the fact that you've adopted this one as your... no OUR home... it means so much to me." She tightens her grip on his arm and kisses him behind his ear, dropping her head back to his shoulder with a contented sigh.

"So to recover the treasure, I transformed into an octopus, while Anna transformed into a water elemental. We went down into the cave and loaded all of the treasure into a chest and some bags I found in the goblin's old lair. And then we were able to bring it all back up. And let me tell you something, it took me a little while to figure out how to work those octopus tentacles! Thankfully, Anna still had a teleport spell available to get us back home to Sandpoint, because I wasn't going to be able to wildshape anymore today."

[I'll let DMDarcs post the details on the treasure we recovered from the cave underneath Thistletop, since we didn't get that info on Roll20 last night. At least not that I noticed.]

"I don't WANT to fight you, it's just that you all were going to sacrifice me to Lamashtu! I can't let that happen... Can I?"

Eldthor leans against the wall, lowering his bow, holding his head with his other hand and trying to remain on his feet.

"Weren't you... weren't you guys going to sacrifice me? I swear you were...."

Anna takes a few tentative steps towards Eldthor, holding out her arms towards him. "Of course we would NEVER sacrifice you, nor ANY of the other members of our party. We are fighting against the evil of Lamashtu and these Runelords, we are not joining with them! We would never do that. Think of your wife, Kailiana. She loves you, and would never think of hurting you."

Eldthor's mind clears, the dizziness passes, and he slowly sinks to the ground, back against the wall and head in his hands. "How.. what... why on earth did I ever think you guys were trying to sacrifice me? That's just ridiculous!"

"I'm not sure... If I had to guess, I'd say it was some kind of enchantment spell set to cast in case the spellcaster we took down was killed," Anna responds, coming closer and putting a hand on Eldthor's shoulder.

Looking up at Anna, he takes a deep breath and then let's it out, releasing all of the tension he's held onto for most of the day during his flight. "I'm sorry to put you guys through that. I'm just glad I didn't end up hurting someone. I'd never be able to forgive myself if I harmed any of you guys. Although... Kay is going to be PISSED at me!" And with that, Eldthor lets out a chuckle and stands up.

"Hey, before we head back to Sandpoint, there's something I need your help with..."

As the three near Thistletop, she sees Kethel break off towards the ramparts of Thistletop, and sees Eldthor arrow towards the water, becoming a large shark before he hits the surface.

She lingers nearby for a while, cognizant of the threat of giant sharks leaping out of the water. She then realizes that, in the state he appeared to be in, Eldthor would never risk the well-being of Kethel if he could possibly prevent him from coming to harm. She decides to head back the way she came, intending to hide near Kethel and await Eldthor's return.

As Anna approaches the entrance of Thistletop, she sees Eldthor standing, bow aimed at her, his aim unwavering. He yells out to her "I don't know why you're here, but you're not going to sacrifice ME to Lamashtu without a fight!"

Anna lands within a comfortable conversational range to Eldthor, arms held out wide, and says "El, if you think you need to fight me, then just go ahead and shoot. I won't harm you, even if you force my hand."

She stares back at him, waiting for his response...
