| Hi Ho Hi Ho.. It's Off To Work We Go |
|
Yesssssss! It was a mighty big spider! Yesssssssssss! It’s history.
A little simple juggling of my team mates was all that was required in the end, to turn that nasty old bug into a smear on the bottom of my shoe. I had considered hiring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, but in the end having two Archers pin cushioning it from a distance, while my main man got all up close and personal and introduced our Arachnid friend to Mr Axe, was enough to win the day.
So, finally out of my first major dungeon and WHAT’S THIS!? Five minutes later and I’m in another one! (Well, a mine anyway) Good Lawdy, I could have done with a chance to sell my loot first. All my inventory slots are still full.
On the plus side though, I have a new party member. He’s a dwarf, but I won’t hold his height against him. We need every good man we can find. What’s the deal with this fellow though? I mean, we first meet him in a cut scene, where he confronts about ten bad guys all on his lonesome and goes all Bruce Lee on their collective Ass.
Brushing the dust off his hands as he walks away from the bodies, he want’s to know if he can join Team Badger! Well yes with a capital “Y” we could use some of that butt kicking action where we’re going.
What we didn’t see though was this;
Party exits stage left into mine with newly acquired SuperDwarf in tow.
Baddie #1 (opens left eye) (whispers) “Have they gone?”
Baddie #2 “Yep, they just went into the mine”
Baddie #3 “Right…. Where’s my share of the money?”
YES THAT’S RIGHT! He totally paid them off. He is not a super Kung-Fu dwarf at all. A fact that we discover the first time we get into a fight in the mines and he switched from being all Cape flapping and underpants on the outside, to fighting about as well as my granny! (Mind you…she’s a tough old bird)
I’m thinking trades descriptions act!
Oh I could rant on for ages…. Just don’t start me ok?
Later All

I am very glad to see creativity is no longer dead.
Nor is humor (and by humor, I mean non-sexual or drug related, actually funny stuff).
I thank you for your inspiring posts, and please keep it up.
I love you.
You don't have to love me back, so please don't feel awkward.

Just a comment, but you DID thoroughly explore the clearing before entering the mine, didnt you? Just to the left of the staircase down from the gate, there should be a couple of "shady" characters, one sells mules, one is a shop. You can sell your loot there. You might have found this already, or may not have, but you mentioned you would have liked to sell some stuff before entering the mines. |

Hamsterlord.... there's a who now?
Noooooooooo!!!!! I looked around the buildings where the dwarf came out. I didn't see any shady shop merchants. I HAVE gone into the mines with a FULL INVENTRY! 
Wouldn't you have assumed that the Dwarf would point out that there was a shop nearby before we went in??!!!
"Hmmmmm, I couldn't help but notice that all your packs, and those of you mule are bulging with items. Most of which may or may not be useless tat, that you could'nt bring yourself to part with. Do you plan to proceed into the mine this way?"
"Why yes Mr Dwarf. It's not the ideal situation of course. But we are a hardy crew and when we can carry no more... which will be in about two more items.... we will begin the arduous task of deciding which items we will have to leave behind to make rom for those we simply must aquire. Why do you ask good Dwarf... do you have a suggestion?"
Dwarf stares briefly in the direction of the traders... "NAH!... Lets hit the mines guys!"
The Badger has said it before and he'll no doubt say it again... DAMN DWARFS!!!

lol I always knew that durned dwarf was up to something!
The merchants are just left of the ramp down from the Gate/Wesrin Cross area. Actually, I found these guys before I found the mining town, but that is just cause I am a compulsive explorer.  |
