In they rode on steady steed,
to save a party t'was in dire dire need.
And in they came not a moment to spare,
for a stench of malice was in fall's crisp air.
We packed up camp and got on the road
but through thick spike topped trees our pace was most slowed.
And as the path grew more narrow and narrower still
Lucian noted good place for ambush, good place to kill
Warily we tightened the march of the group
And carefully on pressed the battle frightened group
Then a small creature I'd not see before
popped out of the trees and into the fore
Pay a toll. Pay a fee " you no go here"
Yet with four armed before it, caused creature no fear.
The sums it demanded much too great to pay
We bargained it down and it scampered away.
Lucan and Catherine set on but fell nearly into a pit.
And more little creatures hurled rocks and our group they did hit .
Lucan of quick arrows picked them off a stone's high ground
The half elves wielding blades charged fast forward bound.
Ot shifting shape to the form of their own
but despite great ruses and tricks their hostility now had grown
You fools these fellow saved me why your weapons wield
My life from dire harm did these valiant creatures shield.
The picos however called old Ot's bluff.
And for moment there things looked really quite rough.
Then with gleaming bright armor and shiny bright steel
Catherine felled enemies and made them all reel.
Lucian loosed shafts to the air they took flight.
While Ot spoke a curse and called out a smite.
The last foes were felled and briefly we rested
for the moment the enemy lay on the ground bested
We live to prevail on another fine day
Where adventures lead on no one can say.
