>>1894854
agreed, the sooner we deal with them, the better

Alright - as the members of the tribe move onwards towards their own territories, the raiding in the jungle continues. The PGF had ordered the parties towards the capital, anticipating a lack of forces there due to stretched manpower and inside sources; and thus the men move out, preparing several different squads for different things. Our main objectives here are attacking the food supply and disrupting the guards, though it will all be done by one party in that order. Tell me who you're sending, and what they're armed with.

>>1894901
Lem Khoril armed with a short sword, shield and leather armor.

>>1894901
Ill be sending Ku-i mean Komuk, ofcourse armed with his signature axes which has been coated by a lil bit of poison.

>>1894901
myself with only a wooden spear

>>1894901
Shazilak will join the raid armed with a spear and a dagger.

You arrive in cloaks during the night, slipping past guards and into the city itself. Shoes slapping against the stone ground, you find yourself near where you're meant to be, but it clearly wasn't going to be that easy. This you realize as you're confronted by 2 or 3 gnolls clearly out for patrol under the cover of night. Raising their lantern, one scurries off while 2 of them, including one with a nasty looking whip, get ready to fight...

You can run for it, try to get to the food storage (I'll assume whoever makes it there first has the lantern), or stand and fight, etc, each as an individual action.

What do you do?

You aim for the neck of the nearest gnoll, and that happens to be the one without a whip. He tries to counter attack but you're experienced with chopping down unnecessary things. It lands solidly, allowing the gnoll precious few seconds to clutch his neck. He bleeds out after, of course.

>>1894984
You attempt to stab the gnoll with the whip, but he lashes out at your hand - you don't drop the blade, but it is clear that this is going to be a tough opponent for you.

>>1894992
>>1894996
>>1894998
These 3 scurry off, but it ends poorly when Lem trips Shazilak as they draw very close to the storage room. The torch flies into the air and smashes on the ground, embers landing on the food well enough, but on Komal too. And by the looks of it, Komal is going to burn much faster.

Gnoll reinforcements are coming, but 3 or 4 of our own men waiting on back up nearby have arrived.

>>1895037
While you attempt to chop, the whip seems stronger. Your hand is clasped in its embrace, and axe thrown from your hand.

>>1895055
>>1895039
Shazilak can't find an opportunity to jump in, whip lashing at his face as you try to break through... the ghoul beside him fares no better, his spear being knocked dangerously close to his comrade's side.

While most are being overwhelmed by now, Shazilak and Terras save Komal and Lem from being killed - just as the quaking slightly intensifies. With the food store fully burning, a retreat is ordered, and the majority of the forces who remained in the forest accompany us back.

There, after a while, the forces with Lar return, and another meeting is called with his presence.

The gnoll takes this all in with a neutral eye, before speaking.

"While you were gone, the prince sent out an ultimatum, along with a time and a place. While he may be smart, he's honorable - this most likely isn't a trick. From what I've calculated of the dead, we should have roughly equal numbers, and I can sway the advisor into staying away. From what I've heard, he's already wanting to work on recuperating instead of anything else. I imagine he's willing up to give up some land for peace. Men like him tire of war quickly."

Weeks later, the army finds itself assembled on a field standing opposed to one composed entirely of gnolls. Dressed in the familiar garb of the prince's men, they're armed, but not moving; nor are we. This is not the same jungle clearing as the one we fought and died in before, but it may as well be. The tension is the same thick consistency. Except this time, we may win. As neither side moves an inch, a gnoll dressed in fine feathers and other materials steps forward; the prince perhaps?

"I am Prince Dzanlap of the family Burnetsun. It is with disdain I greet you murderers," the figure remarks.

The prince indeed then - both by his tone and identification. No one is moving to stop him.

"I'm willing to fight a champion of yours and consider this matter settled. My advisor and I have agreed to let bygones be bygones, and with no heir, he shall inherit my throne if I die here. Not that I will. Will any of you stand up, or will you leave with your nonexistent tails tucked between your legs?"

(Before we begin, allow me to explain the revised dueling system, that will be written up in a pastebin. You have attack modifiers and defense modifiers, while initiative is determined by who had the highest roll in the previous round. The person with initiative rolls first, and rolls with attack modifiers, while the person without initiative rolls with defense modifiers. When a battle starts, the challenger (in this case Lar) would be the first to roll.

For each point you have in something, you gain a +5.

Attack modifiers are skill, weapon quality/make, and bodily strength.

Defense modifiers are armor and bodily endurance.

Environment is neutral other than when there is a high ground/low ground advantage or someone is on poor terrain, which is an extra -5 to the individual.

Your stats don't actually have to be all that accurate, it just makes the duels less random and more intense, and means that you can't kill a god or something ridiculous.)

(45+55 = 100)

The prince tries to use his robes to obscure the vision of his opponent, while baiting his enemy into swinging too far...

100 vs 68

Lar lunges forward to crush the gnoll's skull, but merely ends up smacking the prince's arm as he moves in too deep with the robe. An audible crack is heard as it slams into his arm. He cries out in pain, as a small amount of blood is seen trickling from where it seems bone has punctured through flesh.

Infuriated now, Dzanlap will try to disorient his enemy through the use of the robe still clinging to his arm, and by running fast around him. He's waiting for the time to strike and go for his opponent's legs to ground him.

Both men land blows on each other but nothing too impactful - the prince's arm is torn a bit more, whilst Lar is having to remain steady on his feet while the gnoll darts about. A bit of stumbling, but that's it - both wish to finally strike at their opponent as the next round begins.

"Already did so, not enjoyable you cannibal," the gnoll pants out.

Seeing his opportunity, he draws his knife and aims for an eye...

The Chieftain's blow misses, and though the gnoll couldn't quite get to the eye, he cuts quite close to it - through the eyehole. Withdrawing, it's clear to see that the prince has taken the initiative. Both men circle each other once more, as the prince draws the rib blade...

Rolled 78 + 45 (1d100 + 45)

>>1895606
Now that the prince has sussed out the fact that the eye holes are his enemy's weakness, he knows what to do. With his rib blade in hand, he'll aim to pierce through the eye and into the head, to kill the ghoul. Maybe that'll finally bring peace.

Rolled 89 (1d100)

>>1895613
Crouch low bull rushing into the Gnolls stomach.

Attempting to stab through the helmet was harder than it looked - specifically, when Lar jammed his knee into the gnoll's stomach. Dzanlap is winded and bruised, and in the grasp of the ghoul. However, his blade is still near the helmet, and the blood from a cut he created above Lar's eye is trickling down and making it hard for the chieftain to see. At this point, either could win, but most would bet on Lar.

Rolled 82 + 55 (1d100 + 55)

Headbutt the Gnoll till his face is a fine red mush.

Rolled 20 + 20 (1d100 + 20)

>>1895630
The gnoll rasps out, "Can't... die... yet..." and desperately tries to escape the grasp of the ghoul.

Those who watch Lar's next motion call him a monster, a madman; some call him nothing at all. He picked up the bloodied gnoll and proceeded to smash his head against his own helmet. First the snout began to crack, then the teeth. When he was done, the gnoll was dead, with the ghoul covered in his enemy's blood. He wasn't done.

Ripping away at the matted fur, the chief covered in armor tore through the viscera like grass as he rooted around in his enemy's chest. Some vomited as he found what he was looking for, but none dared to challenge him as he tore out the heart of his enemy. Tilting his helmet slightly, some saw the hideous face of Lar as he consumed the red raw heart whole.

The gnolls fled then, telling stories of the horrors of the ghouls. But only a handful had truly seen the real thing that cemented in their minds the monsterhood of the Ieran leader. The entire time he slammed his helmet into their prince's head, he didn't blink. For minutes, he just stared into the dying man's eyes, and as he stopped, they swore his view landed on each of them.

>>1898518
(This is some good stuff. Just saying.)

As the year finally ends, the three leaders of the Opetians, Ierans, and the Giants who somehow are involved, otherwise known as the Ehwaz, come to an agreement. All written documentation of the Opetians is free for the Ehwaz to access, while all lands outside the jungle of the Opetians are forfeited to Ier. Furthermore, all remaining ghoul slaves are freed to Ier. While this has been welcomed by the nation, apparently the Opetians didn't push for more. Strange. And returning to the topic of the giants, there were rumors that one of their kin was killed by the Opetians, but nothing substantial. As they grow more into contact with us, some even begin to settle alongside the freed ghouls. Hell, some ghouls even number among this tribe in particular. This is particularly noted after the sizable population decrease brought by the war.

The caves come with other passages unseen other than that already discovered by your people. Most are small and bare, yet one you wager lies directly underneath the now defunct portal. In there lies a cloth of incredibly fine materials, its colors bright and, well, colorful. However, blood is in every bit of the fabric, making you wonder just what in Rok's name it was used for. To your people it is a mystery waiting to be solved. As for the pillar itself, well; there you see nothing. A world shockingly bare up high, with nothing but the sun above. The clouds seem to curve in the distance. On the way back down, is where the real interesting details lie though. The pillar seems scarred, weathered in the same pattern from some event long ago.

First Result: The tents fly away, but you have learned to attach them to strings. This doesn't actually stop them flying away, so kites are a thing now.

Second result: A farm has been created, of a reasonable size.

Third result: Looks like the mine only has copper, and down produces nothing for now, except a large space in the mine.

In other news, we are able to work on metal more (as well as other things) due to our expanded kiln. Wow, it almost seems like we're making progress. And with >>1900096 (The Blood Seers)'s work on language, we finally have a script of our own, borrowing mainly from that which the jungle ghouls have introduced to us, as well as elements of Reptian and the giant letters. This group of symbols/runes are known as the Ieran Alphabet.

First off, we've noticed that an unvaried diet can lead to things such as teeth falling out or poor digestion; thus we've encouraged people to change what they eat every once in a while. We've also improved our dental hygiene - bits of rocks and other things can get in what we eat, but rotten teeth can be dangerous. Thus it is said that a rotten tooth cannot keep its place.

Stone work and brinks good. Maybe compacting ash and stone into blocks like the gnolls did? it looked good

We put more effort into stoneworking; specifically, building materials to be used with construction. First off was quicklime, which we discovered whilst trying to figure out what exactly rocks do. Throwing some in the fire to heat them, they generated two powders, which because of the stone's sticky consistency, we called limestone. When combined with water, it becomes almost putty like, and combined again it can be used with clay or sand to mold things together. We're calling this mortar; but that's not just it. Using a similar process with other materials such as lime or gypsum, a white crystal like substance we've found in our mines, we can produce stuff to finish the inside and outside of houses too.

(Apologies if this one was inaccurate; hardest to research and understand by far.)

We create the Bloodguard, alternatively known as the Crimsonguard or the Guardiers (Guards of Ier), a standing force of 30 men ready to protect when the time comes.

Meanwhile (event roll shenanigans)...

Ghouls contemplate the meaning of life as the weather finally begins to change. It's still summer, but on the downturn; perhaps the most unfortunate consequence of the volcanic eruptions a few years back is occurring to us now though. With animals dead, we have less food for the winter, as fewer seem to be coming south.

The giants are skilled craftsmen, giving way to art flourishing in recent times. Specifically, construction and sculpting are their practices. With ghouls getting to the harder to reach spots, our talents seemingly naturally overlap. Tools such as the stone chisel are utilized in these undertakings, and our stones, such as limestone, seem naturally suited for carving.

In terms of boat crafting, we work on designing larger vessels, as our population's growth rate means that we need designs that suit us.

We're comfortably able to fit 10 people, with oars and all. Perhaps a cabin could be attainable next time?

First off, single-die critical failure, a 4 meaning a -2 to all future prospecting rolls. It turns out that despite your sharp eyes, Ieran ghouls aren't exactly perceptive. However, intelligence does exist between your ears, as you check out the mines to see signs of what exactly the signs of ore in the desert would look like. As you stand there, the ground seems to shift. The more wary of you move as the mine tilts, but some remain minutes later as you watch it and its inhabitants disappear into the great abyss below. The mine in question is the one close to the oasis, one of the more profitable mines for the tribe.
