“Will you please tell me why you’re here?” The Solar sighed, watching the Cat Lord stare at the myriad of dots on the wall. The Tabaxi’s ears twitched. “Fine. But can you make the lights move again?” “Not until you’ve told me why you’re here,” he responded. “Your friend…the warlock…he’s doing important things, right? I … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 28 – The Solar and the Cat Lord

“We’re not leaving yet,” Jinnaari stated as the group stared at the portal. “But,” Adam objected, “we destroyed the soulmonger. The curse is over.” “Acerack isn’t dead, though.” Lor replied. Jinnaari nodded. For once, the other Dragonborn was right about something. “Lor’s right. We came down here to kill him. And we’re not leaving until … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 27 -The Way Home

Adam leaned against the wall of the room, standing far enough from the edge so as not to slide into the lava pool. Sweat dripped from his forehead. Partly from the heat, yes, but mostly from the battle they’d just won. Did they win, though? Acerack had been standing next to Thia one minute, gone … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 26 – Going Fishing

“It’s agreed, then?” Bahamut asked, looking at the creature across the scrying pool from him. The Solar flared, but the light was a comfort to Bahamut. The creature was one of the Old Gods, and deserved His respect. “Do you want to go first?” The Solar asked. “Thank you,” The Dragonborn shifted his gaze to … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 25 – The Dreams

Adam moved across the floor, making sure not to step on any of his sleeping companions. Jinnaari sat on the far side of the room, watching him. He was early for his turn on watch. He had to talk with the paladin, and didn’t want anyone else to hear, so now was the best chance … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 24 – Training Begins

Adam brought up the rear of the party, keeping his ears open. Thia had been acting odd during the last fight, screaming at someone the rest of them couldn’t hear. Jinnaari and Caelynn went down a staircase. “How the hell…,” Jinnaari called up to them. “I thought you guys said Helix was dead?” “He was. … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 23 – An Old Friend is Found

Savy flung herself at the stone block, “Rhaine!” Nothing. It wouldn’t budge. Everyone else was on the other side of the massive rock. For a moment, she thought about using Dawnbringer as a chisel. You’re overthinking this. She blinked. “Lathander?” she whispered. I told you both that you would be here on loan only until … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 22 – The Sword Arm of Lathander

Herasta sat at her desk, her head in her hands. The search of Thia wasn’t going as well as she anticipated. Lolth demanded updates daily now, and there was little that she could share that would please the Goddess. Aust was still out there, though. Of her sons, he showed the most potential. He was … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 21 – The Message

The larger orbs’ outer shell retreated, and Jinnaari climbed out. “What’d I miss?” Thia let herself relax for a moment, staying back as Adam and Lynn went to their old friend. It was nothing against Rhaine or Savy, but she’d not felt completely safe since Jinnaari had disappeared on them. Not disappeared, she reminded herself. … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 20 – Reunion

The blue white light beckoned, chasing the darkness of the maze into the recesses of his mind. He’d slain Aust, beaten him to the center. The glow could only be the portal. Finally, he’d be allowed to return to his companions. Jinnaari resisted the urge to rush toward the light. Time had lost meaning in … Continue reading The Murder Hobos – Episode 19 – The Way Back
