The following takes place between 1:30 AM and 2:30 AM, on July 29, 2007, from Thalish's point of view, in the Golden Helm Hearth Room.
A triton executioner stalks in silently, her cold eyes gleaming with hatred.

[Golden Helm, Hearth Room]
An immense circular hearth fills the center of the room. A roast sizzles on a spit over the fire. The juices drip into the coals, popping and hissing as they land. Sturdy oak tables are set throughout, surrounded by chairs wide enough for the most ample of patrons. A pleasant breeze drifts through the open windows set high in the whitewashed wood-and-stone walls. You also see a triton executioner, a dented mithril trunk, a badly damaged gold trunk, a badly damaged tanik strongbox, a dented brass strongbox, the Adokas disk and a wood and glaes door.
Also here: a stunned Great Lord Adokas, Vyst, Tiad

>go door
[Golden Helm, Long Corridor]
The hallway appears brighter and wider than you expect, due to the high vaulted ceiling. Three heavy wood wheels, heaped with candles of varying heights, are suspended from the ceiling by blackened iron chains. A complete suit of mithril armor stands guard beside the steps. You also see a wood and glaes door, some wooden steps and a curved arch.

You elbow your way through a throng of people headed to and from the western bridge. Most are dwarves, but you also see giantmen, humans and even the odd elf or halfling. Before you stands the Golden Helm Inn, a prosperous-looking establishment with a uniformed dwarf at the door. You also see a stone bridge.

The burbling of the river and the buzz of the crowd blend together, and you can hear little else for the din. A stout stone bridge spans the river Muagh, crossing east toward the commercial district. Down by the river's edge squats a fat old dwarf. He sits and stares into the water, mumbling to no one in particular. You also see a stony path.

Streams of people cross the stone bridge to the west, which spans the River Muagh. You also see a wrought iron sign.

Dragonspine Avenue is the main street of Kharam-Dzu. Most of the people you see are well-to-do dwarves, nattily dressed and apparently in a rush. The buildings all look new. Even the cobblestone streets are immaculately clean. A sturdy set of glaes-banded mithril doors leads into a low stone structure. The two guards outside clench their pikes tightly, peering closely at all who approach. You also see a bright brass sign.

Preoccupied folk make their way along this wide and busy avenue. A crew of broom-wielding dwarves sweeps the street clean of rubbish, working quickly under their supervisor's glare. To the west is the Company Store, which draws a steady flow of traffic to and fro. You also see a mule and a wrought iron sign.

From the many shops and vendors' stalls along the street, you hear the cries of hawkers, the lamentations of hagglers and the occasional clink of a coin. You also see a small stone building with a large wooden sign on it and a wrought iron sign.

[Dragonspine and Krodera]
The street widens into a circular plaza several hundred feet across. Dwarves and giantmen lounge on stone benches by a massive granite fountain in the center. The burbling of the waters, the low mumblings of the dwarves and the booming laughter of the giants somehow blend together into a vibrant harmony. You also see a whimsical will-o-wisp spirit that is flying around, a mutilated red granite statue, a wrought iron sign and a lava tube.

The street widens into a circular plaza several hundred feet across. Dwarves and giantmen lounge on stone benches by a massive granite fountain in the center. The burbling of the waters, the low mumblings of the dwarves and the booming laughter of the giants somehow blend together into a vibrant harmony. You also see the earth brown Raggler disk, a whimsical will-o-wisp spirit that is flying around, a mutilated red granite statue, a wrought iron sign and a lava tube.

The flow of the crowd parts around a large hole in the middle of the road. A dwarven work crew stands around the hole, doing very little work. From the many shops and vendors' stalls along the street, you hear the cries of hawkers, the lamentations of hagglers and the occasional clink of a coin. You also see a small stone building with a large wooden sign on it and a wrought iron sign.

Even the cobblestone streets are immaculately clean. A sturdy set of glaes-banded mithril doors leads into a low stone structure. The two guards outside clench their pikes tightly, peering closely at all who approach. You also see a bright brass sign.

[Golden Helm, Hearth Room]
An immense circular hearth fills the center of the room. A roast sizzles on a spit over the fire. The juices drip into the coals, popping and hissing as they land. Sturdy oak tables are set throughout, surrounded by chairs wide enough for the most ample of patrons. A pleasant breeze drifts through the open windows set high in the whitewashed wood-and-stone walls. You also see the Renian disk, a dented mithril trunk, a badly damaged gold trunk, a badly damaged tanik strongbox, a dented brass strongbox and a wood and glaes door.

[Golden Helm, Long Corridor]
The hallway appears brighter and wider than you expect, due to the high vaulted ceiling. Three heavy wood wheels, heaped with candles of varying heights, are suspended from the ceiling by blackened iron chains. A complete suit of mithril armor stands guard beside the steps. You also see a pitted and rusted steel short sword with a rotted leather grip, a wood and glaes door, some wooden steps and a curved arch.

[Ghorsa Isle, Plaza Northwest]
You elbow your way through a throng of people headed to and from the western bridge. Most are dwarves, but you also see giantmen, humans and even the odd elf or halfling. Before you stands the Golden Helm Inn, a prosperous-looking establishment with a uniformed dwarf at the door. You also see a stone bridge.

The burbling of the river and the buzz of the crowd blend together, and you can hear little else for the din. A stout stone bridge spans the river Muagh, crossing east toward the commercial district. Down by the river's edge squats a fat old dwarf. He sits and stares into the water, mumbling to no one in particular. You also see a stony path.

A cobblestone road leads east into the commercial center of the town. Leaning against a stone guardpost, a uniformed dwarf appraises those who pass. You hear angry shouts from inside the building. Streams of people cross the stone bridge to the west, which spans the River Muagh. You also see a wrought iron sign.

Preoccupied folk make their way along this wide and busy avenue. A crew of broom-wielding dwarves sweeps the street clean of rubbish, working quickly under their supervisor's glare. To the west is the Company Store, which draws a steady flow of traffic to and fro. You also see a mule and a wrought iron sign.

The flow of the crowd parts around a large hole in the middle of the road. A dwarven work crew stands around the hole, doing very little work. From the many shops and vendors' stalls along the street, you hear the cries of hawkers, the lamentations of hagglers and the occasional clink of a coin. You also see a small stone building with a large wooden sign on it and a wrought iron sign.

The street widens into a circular plaza several hundred feet across. Dwarves and giantmen lounge on stone benches by a massive granite fountain in the center. The burbling of the waters, the low mumblings of the dwarves and the booming laughter of the giants somehow blend together into a vibrant harmony. You also see a whimsical will-o-wisp spirit that is flying around, a mutilated red granite statue, a wrought iron sign and a lava tube.

The street widens into a circular plaza several hundred feet across. Dwarves and giantmen lounge on stone benches by a massive granite fountain in the center. The burbling of the waters, the low mumblings of the dwarves and the booming laughter of the giants somehow blend together into a vibrant harmony. You also see the earth brown Raggler disk, a corroded steel trunk, a small clump of soot, a pile of ash flakes, a small clump of soot, a pile of ash flakes, a pile of ash flakes, a small clump of soot, a pile of ash flakes, a pile of ash flakes, a pile of ash flakes, the Rolfard disk, a triton executioner that appears dead, the Renian disk, a mutilated red granite statue, a wrought iron sign and a lava tube.

Yeah, basically GM Ikaan just wanted to attack my base for shits. It was amusing, but stressing. Thalish got whacked, as did Real Adokas (the real player/owner of Adokas). And I couldn't put my damn window-wiping rag away because I always use a script to get it and couldn't find the room to put it away in! ARGH!
