Belnia says, "They're all standing around."

You peer west and see ...

[Solhaven, North Market]
The crush of the crowd is almost overwhelming here in the center of the market. Peddlers wheeling small carts push their way through, shouting loudly. Nearby, a group of dwarves argue heatedly with a local merchant. Cracks splinter many of the cobblestones of the square. You also see a spotted timber hyena, a sleek pale golden wildcat, a troublesome sun spirit that is flying around, an amber-eyed tawny range wolf, the Baelog disk, a touchy desert spirit that is flying around, a squalid canvas pavilion, an old barrel, the Belts booth, the Small Blades stand, the Muffinsmith's stall with a wax-stamped parchment on it and a wooden bench with some stuff on it.
Also here: Sovine, Kilthal, Currin, Raelee, Meureii, Guarrin, High Lord Baelog, Bristenn, Kippe, Alifair, Lady Kateerina, Protector Misun, Calean, Tunder, Lord Rypikris, Protector Aydan, Vryke

Belnia's group just went south.
[Solhaven, North Market SE]
Sooty smoke belches from a chimney precariously perched atop a stone building. An old man leans against the outer wall, slowly sharpening his blade with a coarse whetstone. An engraved imflass sign hangs from a metal bar mounted above the entrance. You also see some ambrominas leaf and a copper-roofed ironwood tower.
Also here: Vivaldi, Rimalon, Belnia

Motes of blinding blue light gather together nearby, growing brighter as they coalesce. A soundless explosion tears through the area as the glow dims to reveal a shambling form wreathed in writhing tentacles.
>
A writhing unstable wave ascendant arrives, striding forth with his robes trailing behind him.

You gaze in wonder at your surroundings.

You gesture while summoning the spirits of nature to aid you with the Spike Thorn spell...
Your spell is ready.
You gesture at a writhing unstable wave ascendant.

Dozens of long thorns suddenly grow out from the ground underneath a writhing unstable wave ascendant! The ascendant manages to get out of the way!

You shudder with severe convulsions as pearlescent ripples envelop your body.
You are crushed for 50 points of damage!

The bones in your neck are shattered leaving your head hanging loosely!

[Solhaven, North Market South]
A young lad in a tattered tunic sits begging in front of a half-timber store, fending off any that would encroach on his domain with a deadly glare. To the north, the hawking of merchants, arguments of bargainers and shuffle of wares and boots combine to form an almost pleasant din. You also see a drunken sailor, a peglegged cat and an old barrel.

[Solhaven, East Bridge]
Barges and galleys ply the length of the canal, passing beneath the arch of the East Bridge on their way towards either the seagates below Vornavis or the docks at Baron's Quay. To the north the roofs and spires of the temples of Liabo rise close at hand, while the northern cliffs beyond the Cascade of Tears provide a backdrop to the massed buildings of North 'Haven. In the opposite direction, the tops of the Lornon temples stand in front of the plain of rooftops and warehouses that stretch southward.

[nub]

How did you keep getting healed, and I guess someone was controlling the Oracle?

[droit]

Yah, Auchand. I think the healing is a brilliant tactic on his part, really. It allows him to call in a hit on particular characters (709 CS?!) without leaving them feeling bitter about it. You still have to pull back and respell and such, but the recovery is far less arduous than an actual death.

[nub]

Unless I was reading it wrong, it seemed like even though your spells dropped you had all your spells again. Unless someone was rapid fire spelling you up.

[droit]

He gave me a single cast of all the spells I knew. Decent, but not sufficient for an invasion. That's also the first and only time I've seen him do that.
