There are 3 elves to currently save:

Ushamerea Syndra a Florist one of nine decorators for Lord Xielphiane's party

Ialantha Dalvari a maid one of fourteen servers for Lord Xielphiane's Party

Eranil Lusalor a Poet one of twenty five guests at Lord Xielphaine's party

Elves are sharp of sense and quick of mind, you can spend as much time as you need assessing the situation and gathering information
enemies cannot act until the elves perform an action

be very certain before picking an action, if all controlled elves are killed the story is over

Where are you 3 right now?

Maybe they shouldn't have sent a poet this time.
First action: Muffle Usha's gasp of terror.

A Maid, huh? She must know there are secret doors and exits if she's familiar with this (I assume) castle.

Poet, calm the Florist down with an ASMR lullaby into her ear. Quiet enough for the terrible thing not to pick up.

Calm the florist down. She doesn't look like shes faring too well.

What else do we know about these monsters? How good are their senses?

Well given their effectiveness, I assume that most forms of hiding don't work.
Likewise, running seems futile.
Fighting is just all-around bad.
Traps and ambushes require time you don't have.
The fortifications and safe-rooms have all been expended.
Help has proven futile.

For now, just very quietly and steadily sneak down the corridor and get out of sight.

Then perform a ritual to damn U shame rea's soul to create a better, more elven version of the Harroctar that can fly you all out of here.

>>966021
He had us for the first half, not gonna lie

What are the known capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses of the Harroctar? About how many of them attacked Lord Xielphaine's party?

Where was the party? Are you in a city being overrun, or was the attack a surprise/more like an assassination?

Is the Harroctar around the corner aware of you yet? Are any of you wounded?

What's the safest nearby place you can think of?

>>966006

Take a quick look around the room. Are there any other Harroctar? Where is the nearest exit? Are there any shields or weapons nearby?

As a maid Ialantha knows Xielphiane manor like the back of her hand

currently the Maid, the Florist and the Poet are cornered on the northern balcony just off of the dining hall.

there are three ways out in addition to the Manor entry way there is a kitchen exit into the city streets and two secret passageways, one leading to the southern city gate and another leading into the caves of memory.

well I want to go to the caves of memory

Wait for it to pass, then discreetly scoot yourselves over to the cave of memories.

Is there any sounds of screaming or bells being rung or whatever that would indicate that the rest of the city is aware of the attack? If we can get to the streets and raise the alarm then that would seem personally useful and to be the civil thing to do for the community. If, on the other hand, the city is already in a state of panic/overrun then we may as well not bother.

I like the cave of memory. It is probably a dead-end, but it sounds like fun so let's do that!

yeah, let's head to the cave of memories

I'm not sold on the Cave of Memories. We need to heat to the Streets and hightail it out of town.

Cave of memories!

Hide in the cave of mammaries. Nothing evil has ever killed anyone by stalking it through a cave

Sympathy vote for south gate. There's a tower and, you know, a gate, so we could seal this area off.

Grab some supplies and valuables, especially anything expensive. You don't have the skills to survive out there, so be sure you have assets to buy food until you can learn.

Remember, these things are made to hunt and kill elves. So you've got to think as unelfly thoughts as possible. That said, important question: is there a way out of the caves of memory, besides the way you came in? "Cave of memory" kind of sounds like a place you don't want people just passing through. So I'd actually say city gate.

>>966837
is the city even a consideration? would going there help?

>>966837
I'm thinking escape through the city. Risky, but a lot more places to hide and dart around, and possibly supplies if you survive.

>>966837
How high is the balcony above that courtyard? Could we jump?

I can't help but notice that armory right by the south gate pass. Might be worth a look.

Eranil quietly whispers soothing verses to Ushamerea, it seems to soften the florist's sobbing a little, the poet's bosom muffles it further.

the hunter doesn't seem to notice.

Ialantha figures that the cave of memory must have at least one other exit, as the entrance she knows is supposed to be secret, and other go there publicly.
none of the elves know the caves of memory very well it's a dour place, and they've no reason to visit often.

The elf hunter also bars their path, the elves are nimble, quick and stealthy they might be able to slip past without notice, but none are eager to try.

Eranil has heard that elf hunters rely entirely on their four senses:smell, tremor sense, heat sense and hearing.
rumor has it they favor different senses and different range from their prey

the elves will need to think of some way to get past the elf hunter to reach the cave of memory the south gate or the street

Throw a bauble down the hallway or whatever (I have no idea where you are on the map) so that it gets lured away and out of your path.

Confuse them by setting a fire! Smoke the bugger out.

Can you overload their senses? Setting off firecrackers or some noisy supermagic would confuse the elf hunter for a precious few seconds.

Do any of you have a coin purse? Metal disc tucked into mouth or armpit would quickly pick up your scent and body heat, then it could be thrown at a distant spot on the ground as a decoy footfall to spoof tremorsense.

I'm seeing vines on the wall. Seems like a gardener might know which are sturdy enough to climb, then you might not need to pass through the dining room at all.

>>967825
Certainly worth a shot

The obvious choice here is to have all three of your rush for a different exit. One of you will certainly die, but if you can run fast enough the other two will escape.

I mean, is it can hear you move you aren't going to sneak by it. These aren't hearty woodland elves, this is elven artist aristocracy, th

somewhat calmed Ushamerea looks to the vines on the walls, they're decorative but she knows they are strong enough to hold her weight she's climbed them before.

Ialantha feels confident she could climb the vines as well.

Eranil is uncertain, as heaviest and weakest of the three physical activities have never been her strong suit.

We send one climber. then the poetess, then the other climber to keep up with her. With one anchor point at either end, we can hopefully prevent the worst outcome.

You probably can't risk going more than one at a time, but you are elves, and these are plants in an elf city, so presumably you're pretty light and they're pretty strong? Still.

The lower vines will have fastened themselves more securely and the vines themselves will be sturdier and spread the pull wider along the top. Go slowly, don't put too much weight on one thing at a time, and try place your feet and hands near where the branches split if you have the option. The plan to send Eranil in the middle is a good one - with help lowering herself off the first balcony and getting on the second, she can save more of her stamina for the middle portion of the crossing. Vines like these usually break at a point rather than peeling the whole thing off so the lightest person should go last just in case they have to climb over on just one remaining top chunk.

Alternately, if you all used all your clothes, you might make a long enough rope to tie one end to the balcony you're on, and send someone to bring the other end over. If they pull that end around the corner of that door a bit and wedge their feet as they hold it in place for the others, the leverage would help. You'd still be partly using the vines and just using the rope to take some of the weight, but it would help. In that case leave the lightest for last, since the first needs a bit of strength and you'd presumably want to untie the rope and bring your clothes over with you.

>>969799

Ushamerea, you climb the vines over and find something to help your sisters over.

All others, sit tight and stay hidden until your sister comes back.

>>969814
I agree with this. The only thing to add is if the elf-hunter gets too close, you could throw a shoe to make noise and divert its attention. It sounds like they could be blind if they must rely on those other senses? Or maybe near-sighted.

Have the two that can climb the vines do so. You need to step carefully and quietly through the dining hall to go find something to draw the hunter's attention down the hall.

Perfect action!
perfect actions perfectly suit the character and situation they always succeed without a skill role!

Ushamerea gracefully climbs across the gap using the vines. reaching the other side without a sound.

she hears hushed whispers down the walkway, and sees an injured elf down the hall.

Eranil and Ialantha can hear the Harroctar's clacking legs drawing closer

Ushamerea's gotta move fast, she only has so much time before the Harroctar shows up on the other end.

I say we ask the injured elf if there's something we can use to bring the other two over. If she's unconscious, see if there's a weapon we can use to cut the vines to make a rope and then anchor it so the non-climber can be hoisted up.

Go to the elf's side. Take up their sword.

Quickly pull them up to their feet.

dont take elf sword
is TRAP
that is why you should peek corner before looting

Hrrrm.
If it’s a trap with the enemy coming to finish off this wounded warrior then it means they’ll only find our girls if they’re sufficiently noisy to draw attention.
If not then it’s headed towards the girls and they’re in trouble.
The Maid might not be as agile as the Florist but I figure she might be at least able to go onto the vines temporarily to hide. The Poet…
I don’t immeadiately have a good idea beyond a thrown bauble distraction. Push come to shove she COULD double down on getting caught and go loud, drawing all the hunters to her, and with her sacrifice probably garuntee the escape of the other three but…
Elves are sneaky, straight-up. She might be able to just hide and let the hunter bypass her? Dunno if she has room/time to find a better hiding spot then say, next to the entranceway to the balcony, if she’s concerned about the vines holding her.

Ushamerea quietly walks down the corridor, the Harroctar in the dining hall continues to focus on the balcony door.

she peaks around the corner, Another Harroctar clings to the wall.

'I wouldn't try that way' The injured archer speaks in a voice so soft only sharp elven ears can hear 'with a scout stationed there you'd never make it'

The Florist is shocked, she knows this elf. His name is Turit Trueshot one of Lord Xielphiane's bodyguards, his wound on his leg seems very deep and he's lost a lot of essence.

'Don't fret over me Usha I've had worse' Turit comments having noticing her concern 'You need to get out of here, I think the route through the kitchen is still safe'

tears return to Usha's eyes, Turit has always been kind and considerate. I can't, there are two others trapped on the balcony, I must help them.

'heh heh, I guess I'm not the only fool around here' Turit chuckles quietly 'I'll help however I can, I have a single arrow left I might be able to take down one of these creatures if I'm lucky, I also have a rope and grapple and a short blade'

* * *

The maid is willing to take her chance on the vines and climbs across.

Easy action: success!

climbing in a long dress is a little awkward but she manages.

The rope and grapple can help Eranil cross the vines, then we can focus on a plan to get rid of that scout on the way.

Speaking of, how can these things be stopped or killed, hard as it may be?

That one hasn't noticed us yet. What are their weakest senses?

At this point the long skirt of the dress might be a deadly liability. Maybe they can fold it up? or maybe use the dress as a rope?

The maid could wait and help the poet cross. If she is not that aprenshive and the dress is simple, she can hastly undress and use it as a rope for a safer passage.

>>1054808

Take rope and grappling hook. Tear lower portion of maid's dress off to act as a handlebar. Wad up into ball and throw it to Eranil. Throw hook with rope above her at an angle so she can zip line across the gap to rejoin you both.

'How can these monsters be killed Turit?' the florist asks

The elven archer gives the answer he's long considered'The best way I know of is a piecing strike from the back, where their armor is weakest'

Open conflict is too frightening for the flower arranger'is there some easy way to avoid them, or hide from them?'

Turit responds clinically 'fire, between the sound, the smell and the heat, Harroctar are left nearly blind around fire.'

Ushamerea doesn't find this very helpful, fire is rare in Orisiyelle, few elves use it.

she takes the grappling hook, and slinks back to the ledge where the Maid is waiting.
The elf considers tearing her dress for Eranil to use as a handlebar, but the fabric is too strong. she could probably just toss fellow survivor her apron instead.

The Florist takes a few practice swings with the grappling hook but is worried about hitting Eranil.

Eranil ties her dress up so that it doesn't get in the way.

>>1056880

Questions:

-Is Turit in a good place to hit one of the Harroctar in the back of the head?
-Can we use said apron to help ferry the rest of the sisters over to Eranil's location?
-Any flammable materials nearby? Sounds like fire is going to be our best bet of getting by the Harroctar.

>>1056948

Sorry, Ushamerea's location. We want them to all be together.

I say we not worry about making some noise now in order to ensure Eranil (Poet) has the best chance of making it across the gap, and we have a great head start through the kitchen.

Let’s have Ushamera (Florist) throw the grappling hook over the railing. It’ll make noise as it clanks against the balcony, which will trigger the hunters, but it sure beats hitting Ushamera (Florist) with a friggin grappling hook to the chest. Then Ialantha (Maid) can secure the grappling hook as high up on the vines as she can, and then give Eranil (Poet) her apron to use as a zipline after Ushamera (Florist) ties the other end to the balcony on the opposite side.

Again, they’ll need to move quickly since the hook will make noise and vibrations, but by going toward the kitchen/dining hall, maybe that’ll draw them upstairs to the archer, who can get a clean shot on one of them and go out in a blaze of glory.

I love the idea of fleeing a house in flames, but experience tells me that fire works better when you have a way to put it down or a secured escape plan.

>>1057180

About the grappling hook making sound, it shouldn't if she catches it one the air. For the rest of the plan I agree.

Iolantha bundles up her apron and tosses it to Eranil who catches it.

The elves look around the sparse hall and can't find anything loud to throw.

The Harroctar alpha emerges onto the balcony searching for prey.

They hunt via smell, tremor sense, heat sense and hearing. So if we move slowly and keep low (so the heat dissipates before rising) then that's three things it will have trouble finding us with. And everything here smells like elf anyway.

Keep low and slow, and sneak to the kitchen/dining hall.

Yep, now is our chance while it's outside.

Is Turit in a good place for us to prop him up? Maybe he can take a shot at the critter and kill it.

Ushamerea goes to the archer "Turit with your last arrow can you kill that critter on the wall?"

Turit nods: "I can but you'll need to help me up"

Iolantha peaks into the kitchen, there are several things in there that could be useful;
-Healing herbs to treat injuries
-elven bread, good for travel
-knives, useful for a variety of things
-wood for fire
-bags and pots for carrying things

Iolantha hears the splashing of water from the garden pools! the kitchen is not empty...

Rad. Ushamerea, help Turrit up, and allow him to take the kill shot.

Iolantha and Eranil, quietly gather the bags and fill them with the herbs, bread, firewood, and knives. Only take what you can carry efficiently.

Grab the herbs and just enough wood to light a torch of. This will literally save our lives!

If there’s a stove or oven in the kitchen, light that wood NOW. If it’ll take time, just grab the small amount of wood and get back to Turit. If we’re spotted, lure the attacker so it’s back is to Turit, then he shoots!

Turit fires his last arrow into the Harroctar.

the arrow slips between it's armored chitin plunges right into the creatures brain, it collapsed dead making only the thud of it's body falling to the ground.

Turit and Ushamerea wait to hear the scuttling of an alerted creature but no sound is forthcoming. it seems no other monsters heard their pack member die.

they breath a sigh of relief

Sneak a glance into the kitchen. Go in and fetch materials if it's clear.

Iolantha looks into the kitchen, she doesn't see anything in there she whispers to Eranil ' keep a look out at the water basin, I think somethings hiding inside, I'm going to gather supplies' Eranil nods

Iolantha grabs a bag and quickly fills it with herbs, bread, firewood, and knives.

a splash is heard again, Iolantha turns, there's a Siren in the basin

Eranil recognises her as the exotic singer, and one of the guests for Lord Xielphiane's party. Eranil finds it remarkable that she still lives, without legs it must have been a struggle reaching the kitchen pools,

the siren speaks broken elven 'Please help! Please help!', Iolantha understands why the creature needs help, she is much too large to fit through the drains out to the river. there's no escape that way.

Keep your voice down! We could use all the hands we can get, even if they don't have legs.
How far can she get via the water, or do you have a tool which could force entry to the drain?

Tell her to stay quiet and that youll will find something to move her out of here.

On that note, have the Maid Ialantha look for a cart or such around the room, and have Poetess Eranil explore a bit further down the corridor.

Can we remove the drains? Is there a way to do so for cleaning?

You can't help this poor doomed creature. There's no way to drag her from this place until you can find water outside. There's no escape from that pool.

Let the poor creatures cries alert the enemy and flee as they are distracted eviscerating her. There is no choice here, she can die or you can all die.

>>1072704
Perhaps the maid would know if it is a grate barring escape or an extended araa thats too tight. Bars and frate could be damaged or removed to allow escape but the other impassable.

Eranil tge poet may be able to weave words calming and reassuring to the trapped siren. Panic and noise arevthe most eminent sources of threat right now.

Eranil hums a soothing tune to calm the Siren while Iolantha looks for a way to help.

She loos for a cart of some sort, the closest thing the maid finds is a cake trolley, she rolls it closer to the water.

Iolantha removes the drain cover but the hole isn't nearly large enough for a person to fit through.

I...hm. I feel REALLY friggen bad leaving her to die here.

But I can't think of an efficient way to help her without strongly risking THOSE THINGS hearing the wheels or some such.

Actually, plug back up the drain, they'll hear THAT, too.

Not good. If we could even get her to some flowing water or something, she might even be able to lead them on a chase. I doubt they'd be able to function perfectly well submerged in water. This place wouldn't happen to have a moat or something nearby, would it?

>>1085218
We can't really do anything for her immediately but we could plug the drain so the room slowly floods wich will probably give her a better chabce long term

>>1085218
Now that shes calm, in whisper ask her how she got here.
There must be some form of conveyance if the waterway isnt the route she entered by.

Once we know what it is, then maid dalvari may know where itd be kept.
Then theyd be able to decide ifnit was practical.

In the mean tine, im guess the siren is aquatic enough to stay underwater.

May be if she bunches up and tucks down low, staying still as a stone, itd be enough to keep them from spotting her, even if they were to enter the room.

The waterfall would be churning the surface of the water a little and the small amount of noise it offers would combine to give her cover while the elven ladies consider the next move.

Check if the cake trolley would make sound with weight on it. If is silent enought then we can carry her, even so I suspect a future situation where the siren will be left behind on screams while the survivors escape with tears on her eyes.

Maybe we can use the plug to make sound and leave a distraction behind if we have to leave hastly.

The drain cover is replaced, and could be blocked to over flow the kitchen, but the elves would need to leave quickly to avoid getting wet feet.
Hiding and waiting for an opportunity worked for the survivors, perhaps it could work for the siren?

The trolleys are well maintained their wheels never squeak Iolantha sure of it.
She's used one before, very fine elven craftmanship the leather lined wheels seem to dull sounds and the frame might be able support a heavy siren, the maid is not sure she's strong enough to move them but is willing to try

The nearest source of flowing water will be the stream in the cave of memory, the water connects to the river and eventually out to sea.

The maid asks the siren how she got here the siren explains that she slowly slid her moist body across the dining room floor.

Ask her to choise her poison: "Do you prefer risk to wait or traven in the trolley. We can't assure we can pull you all the way"

When Harroctar attacks there are usually rescue or extermination parties?

>>1089118
Damn.
No custom conveyance.

Cart then unless she wants to try hiding at the bottom and hoping they miss her.

Perhaps the cart could be moved by two elves while the most stealthy could lead the way.

Of the three id expect maid dalvari to be the stronger, most used to physical labour though perhaps florist syndra may match her.
The most quiet step id say belongs to maid dalvari.
Serving staff are adept at moving without notice among lords and ladies so as not to disturb them
While her stealth may not be a match for a scout or thief, she is certainly the most able of the trio.

So!
Florist and poet aid the siren. Two moving the cart will give them a little more speed.

Maid scouts ahead and checks each corridor, guiding their motion by hand signal or falling back if its a more detailed instruction or plan to share.

The escape this offers the siren may also offer the elves escape too.

If the siren can help them once shes in her element, then she could swim them through any submerged sections quicker than they could get through themselves.
Presuming the stream is fully submerged at points.

The siren doesn't seem to want to be left behind. the cake trolley will have to do

it doesn't seem possible that the Harroctar could attack a city as large as Orisyelle Lord Xielphiane magic should have kept it hidden, and driven them away even if found.

why didn't the magic protect them?

in any case emergency rescue should be at the meeting fountain at the hidden spring outside of town.

Miss Dalvari scouts ahead leaving her friends to help the siren and the archer.

She reaches the study with the hidden passage.
The coast seems clear.

Grab the MEDICINE book and then wave the crew forward to join us. That book might come in handy for elf survival!

Promising.

I dont think the room would look so well appointed with one of those monsters lurking within.

Grabbing the book is a fine idea.
It can double as an emergency sheild or thrown object, but hopefully it will not be needed for its improvised or intended purpose.

Agreed.
It is time to bring your friends forward.
However, your job does not end at the wave.

Quietly clear their path of any potential noise making collision obstacles like scattered furniture or dropped gear and other partyware discarded in panic.
Just place it safely at the hall side.
Also, spare a glance towards them as they move towards you.
Watch behind them specifically for beasts entering the corridor on random patrol.
Spotting them first could buy the precious seconds needed to take cover.

Grab every book you can carry, starting with Medicine and Magic. This place is going up in smoke anyway.

No, julianne,
stop.
No more weird books.
Weve got insectoid horrors to evade.

Dalvari doesn't see any cloth around, she'd have to use part of her outfit if she wanted to muffle sound under the book case.

she glances at Lord Xielphiane book collection again
"Better living and Marital guidance through Setax holdem?"

she wonders how she ever came to work for such a strange man

Continue through the passage and read the book on magic if there’s enough light.

An apron can be sacrificed while protecting your dignity.
That is an apron shes wearing or is it a smaller pinny?
It might be enough...

Your masters eclectic collecting is a mystery for another time, unless theres a copy of "harroctar obedience academy: 30 tricks to teach your new nightmarish horror." Sitting on the shelf. Im not even sure you can get that anymore either.

Unless any of those books have any practical aplications right this moment, leave them. It's not them these creatures are after.

Follow down the tunnel and close the passage behind you. If anyone still alive knows about it they'll be able to open it.
