Editing Guarding the moon (section)

== 5. Tribe hall ==

''You are guided inside the largest building you've seen in this tree village. It's base is made up of 3 thick branches protruding from two different trees. They align so perfectly one would believe they were grown for the job. The building's floor and walls are bark-like but very smooth. 30 woven stools fill the hall in neat rows. In front of the long room a stump with a 1 meter radius protrudes from the floor. It's sides are carved in elven symbols but for a clear 10 cm thick line stretching from top to bottom of the stump.''

'''A DC 15 Insight/knowledge check reveals that the carving are some kind of calendar and history book. The DC is lowered to 10 if the adventurer knows Elven.''' 

''Before you even have a chance to settle on the stools 5 elves enter. The one in front walks to the stump and stands on it as if on a dais.''

"So, [http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/Licu_di_Glasdir Licu] thinks I am in need of help? What has he told you?"

'''The Elf is [[Aeson_di_Aesar]]. He fills the adventurers up with any information they are missing:'''

"It is time for the [[Esuli]] to tread away. We are used to it, abandoning a village and finding another, but still it's a pity. Very fertile mud fields lie close. Mud fields we are to harvest before the track. The [[truncata_clam]] here is especially potent, but hard to find under an arm of water, mud and pebble. But the spirits are always kind to the Esuli,"

''The other Elves all nod''

"and have made a flower grow from the clam. The [[Moon bloom]] breaks the surface of the water only a few nights per year, around the first full moon of spring. But other creatures learned to use the sign to find the truncata. The spirits are always kind to the [[Esuli]]."

''The other Elves nod again''

"We hunt and eat those that come to reap our fields. It is never a struggle for the [[Esuli]] to protect what is theirs. But [http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/Licu_di_Glasdir Licu] was not wrong in sending you. My father, [[Aesar di Agis]] a great tyee, died this winter. Now Licu is our best hunter, but he has other obligations. Thus and so, we do not mind you helping. We have not much dealings with coin, but be assured you will be fairly rewarded. Better than fair if your skills prove worthy."

''Aeson indicates the two elves standing behind him''

"Calanon and Dûrion here will bring you food, drink and whatever else, as guests, you require. But honor their time. All Esuli Hands are valuable when the tribe is so close to moving. And rest. You will be sent for in time."

''Calanon and Dûrion follow their leader out and soon come back with a legless table made of smooth bark. They place the table on the ground and arrange the stools around it. A large shell filled with stew is at the center of the table. A smaller shell to serve as a bowl is set in front each of you. Bread of [[Water grain]], smoked fish and a sauce of finely mashed spicy roots surround the stew pot. The two Elves leave without a word.''



-Your help will be rewarded. X and Y here will bring you food and be of service to you, just don't take too much of their time, they have other duties.
