Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Now that fire is going under the pot, does NArrhill put out torch, or hand off to someone else?

[Narrhil keeps torch active till he fills pot with snow, then yes put it out to save the light.

It more a meat-feast, bit of heart, liver and outer flesh, perhaps brain! ].


Narrhil throws his winter blanket over Votin to keep him warm...

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Narrhil has the fire going under the pot and he's going back for more snow juggling his horn, bowl, lighted torch, and his weapon.

Anybody else doing anything?

Gonna be a while while he gets little scoops of snow in his horn and little bowl.
Wanna hold that hindleg directly over the flame?
Votin has only eaten sand crab for the last 10 years!

His horn holds .4 liters and the bowl about 10 ounces, so let's say the both carry 1 liter of snow.
Snow yield ratio is around 10:1, so 10  inches of snow for 1 inch of water.
Fresh fallen snow on cold winter day might take 30 or more liters to get a single liter of water.
Melting snow for water is not practical.

I'm going 3:1 for this scenario, because Narrhil would be doing this all day, and burning through the rest of the precious torches. 

[*Would be easier for Votin and Narrhil to unhook the large kettle from its chain and carry it to the snow.]

No, just collapsed from hacking the table and carcass. Hunger has him on his knees.

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

The smell of wolf stew snaps Tillak out of his trance. "What's that delicious smell? I bet that I could make that with venison!"
[Sorry guys. I gave two of you my cell number. Feel free to contact me that way.]

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Votin staggers up to a standing position...

"Let's us use the kettle...It would take an eternity to  fill it with the horn."

[Ah, okay, not realise, thought he was in a coma or something? ]

Narrhil gives Votin what melted water they can spare, then start helping him with the pot. He does leave some meat on a stick to roast by the fire before he goes back into main temple area.

"Ah, yes Master Tillak, partial stew, roast meat, and for later some wolf's tail!"

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Narrhill gives the torch (still lit) to Tillak.
He and Votin carefully lift the hot pot off the small fire (just getting going).
They take it to the chapel and fill it with snow and return it to the fire in the fireplace.
The precious torch gets put out.
Meat goes into the pot.
Hindquarters get roasted.
And at last they will eat.
The hindquarters get devoured while they wait for their soup!

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

{How can Votin think of sweets with that stew coming to a boil while that mesquite scent of hindleg char drifts out of the chimney and the broken out windows high on the wall...?]

Re: The Scorched Sanctuary

Now that the fire lights the room, Narrhil prepares to cast the detect magic spell on their items. He had planned to explore temple, the main chapel and down in the basement. He takes his blanket and lays it on the floor placing the items around him, the bowl, bone spoon, scrolls, rings, wand and other items they have collected, the rope, hourglass, metal picks, amongst other things.

He starts whispers a pray to Yikkorth...

[Theory, Kéet's ring also. He also wants to rise quickly and go downstairs, the bottles, some are CLW, from what I got?
