Fallen Ironhouse

He leaves with the dwarf to go to the ironhouse halls. Upon seeing Valtor's still body, Jonathan is hit by a wave of sadness. He whispers a prayer that Valtore return to good health, and mourns the scene, before departing from the halls.

All that is said by the guards is that Valtore sacrificed himself to imprison an army of demons that threatened the lands.

Were Elijah to overhear what the guards said, he would nod grimly adding, "I was there when the courageous and selfless Loremaster gave his life up to form the barrier. As the magical wall took shape, with the hordes of fiends charging forth, the only thing I could do then was to pull out his spent, lifeless body from the battle ground to have it brought back to the Ironhouse halls."

Elijah also volunteers to make up any shortfall in the beljurils required for the ritual (not that he thinks the mighty Ironhouse Clan would actually be lacking in these though).

He also pledges to send priests of Lathander to help in the ritual should that be useful.

*If Ardylan hears of what happened to Valtore, he won't seem particularly upset or shocked. In fact, he rather looks like he doesn't care at all. Face set in an expressionless frown, he'd simply shrug at whoever told him the news.

He pats his bag, which contains two or three beljurils. Knowing that the Ironhouses might need them doesn't stir any sense of wanting to donate.*

"Let 'em drown in ale." *Ardylan would mutter under his breath.*

*Suppose they'd hear about the needs of Ironhouse dwarves only if they were at their halls or they later talked about it elsewhere.*

*Sets down her own Feywine.* "Golly, Ardy, that was sudden. And a 'heroic death in battle'? Old Silverbeard probably has him swimming in fountains of ale for eternity or somethin'." *Lifts her goblet in toast, pouring a bit out in tribute.*

*In front of the Ironhouse Clan Hall Gates, late at night, invisible to common eyes, stands the figure of a Huge Solar Archangel. He recognizes the place, he's been here before when he helped to free the site from a dangerous Black Dragon. Traveling by the Astral Plane he quickly scans the construction passing through stone walls and doors, clearly looking for a specific location. When he finally finds the chamber where lies the body of the dwarf Valtore he stops, returns to the Material Plane and closes his eyes for a moment, when he opens them again, the figure of a very tall and beautiful blond woman stands at his side in robe, cloak and hood. She looks at him with her fascinating deep green eyes, slightly smiles and whispers.*

“- Thank you Arimeus.”

*She kneels besides her dear old friend remains and holds his hands.*

“- First Lanius, then Seadin and Ka, now you Val. I can't believe I still have tears to shed, I love you so much old friend, I miss you with all my soul and spirit, don't leave us I beg you, your mission is not over, it's not your time yet. Remember how many battles and adventures we experienced together in all these years? I know it's hard for you to leave the Great Library in the Celestial Regions, but we need you here Val, come back to us Knight of the Lost Tome.”

*She closes her eyes filled with tears and with Valtore's hands enlaced to hers she starts to pray. Time passes and morning comes, a dwarf guard enters the chamber for his routine patrol and faces the unusual scene. At first he is scared and draws his weapon, the Solar Archangel alludes to act, but the woman stops him with a hand gesture, she rises and lowers her hood. The dwarf guard immediately recognizes her, she's been a friend and ally of the Ironhouse Clan since the times of the Thane Crudak, she fought many battles and helped the Clan many times in the past, lots of their special and enchanted items have her touch and she even saved the Thane Fohgar's life rescuing his body from the claws of Garag the orc. Among the dwarves circulates the tale of the legendary Priestess who helped to free the Clan Hall charging the Black Dragon wielding one nasty Scythe in each hand.*

“- Proud Ironhouse, could you please inform the Thane that the Harvestmistress Julia Navarre Sallavarian is here to help bring the Loremaster back to the world of living. I've brought with me everything necessary and would like to offer assistance.”


((Hi, I'm not an active player anymore but, for Valtore I'll come back, anytime, anyplace. I know that few people and a DM are trying to Raise him, I would like to help. I already performed True Resurrections before, please send me a PM and I'll be there.))

Evan have not seen his friend Valtore in over a week and is getting a little worried.
He knows Valtore can take care of himself in most situations...most.....

Evan asks around in Myth drannor, the refugee camp, the royal oak and lastly the Ironhouse clan halls.

Upon receiving the grave news Evan asks for permission to enter and pay his respects and if he can help in any way he will. Evan offers that he has two bejurils in storage and would gladly give them for a true resurrection if needed and ask the clan ((or a DM)) to get back to him and send him a message at the Star inn.

Upon hearing of Julias appearance Evan feels that Valtores soul is in good hands but would still like to help and also to meet his friend Julia again. He asks the guards to notify him when a resurrection attempt is going to happen and he will bring his two bejurils and give them if needed.

Ironhouse call upon their friends and allies to meet in Ironhouse chambers for a final attempt to bring life back to the clever dwarf. Closest friends of Ironhouse would have heard that Fohgar has been keeping Thogar, highpriest of clan, awake for almost a full week until he came up with a solution or at least a confirmation that the Beljurils could bring Valtore back.

Official word is spread Myth drannor and every known ally to come aid the ritual where each of those divine can call to their gods at our great anvil. Those of non divine still welcome to say their words.

Everyone ofcourse welcome to bring their Beljurils and Ironhouse will provide any missing.

/// I epicly failed coordinating this meeting, but we will meet at 2pm GMT today 27th, since Im thinking that leaves msot hopefully able to join.

((I won't be able to make it as I'm still coming from work at the time and have to stop for some grocery shopping on the way. However, I can peek in once I am at home and see what's going on then.))

///Not that Piak would make any difference, but won't make it as well. All the best, hope to hang around with Val again soon.

Evan be there in about 25 minutes

"Why is it always the good men? There's too many good men lost already..."

Valtore returned with the aid of many close friends. He is forever greatful to all who where there.

*and he got a Sunite to blush!*
