Catching his breath, Amon is roused by Dolorian's words. He sees the gorilla trying to escape and quickly tries to recall if he suspects the fleeing creature will be a liability if allowed to escape.

Dolorian unloads and sheaths his pistol, conflicted about the fleeing gorilla. He clicks his tongue in disappointment as the beast disappears into the brush. As Dolorian walks over to Koro's remains, he calls Amon over and asks, "Amon, what did you see?"

Encounter End

"Yes, I am alright," Cedros answers with a trembling voice, crouching down to gingerly pick up the longbow on the jungle floor. The expedition leader's usual smile has been replaced with a sullen gaze. "I never thought that we'd... lose someone out here."

Nearby, Koro's body lays still in the middle of the clearing, mangled by the combined onslaught of the gorillas. His chest and belly have been gored open, exposing his innards in a grisly sight.

Next: Short Rest?

[sblock=Mechanics]Daris: hits and kills...

Combat over!

The bomb was successfully disarmed, and Ilmoto gains the item back into his inventory.

Daris wipes the ape blood from his blade and sheathes it. "Good boy," he says to Valcus, leaning forward and patting the lion on the neck before dismounting. "He'll be the last," he replies to Cedros. "You brought more than just academics on this expedition for a reason. Unfortunately we've just been reminded why."

With the battle won, Naia breathes a sigh of relief. A smile upon her face, she retrieves her lyre and strums a chord.

"The King o' the Jungle,
the title's been known!
'Cause Valcus the King has reclaimed the throne!
We beat up the apes,
we passed the first test,
so now we oughta take a quick rest!"

Morag nods, bitter now that the rush of battle has faded. "No more wandering off alone. We're almost there, and we are not about to start losing any more people because we started getting careless. Understood?"

Without waiting for an answer, since she was talking to the group at large rather than any specific person, she stalks over to Koro's body, on the off chance that he might still be clinging to life somehow.

Watching the largest of the beasts collapse and the remaining one flee, Amon leans down and wipes his blades along the foliage to clean what he can of the blood from them. Hearing Dolorian, he makes his way over to Koro's remains. "When we came into the clearing, the creatures were hunkered over his body. Couldn't hear anything from Koro over the sound of the beasts... doing what they did." Amon shakes his head, the sight before him utterly gruesome. "Can't say I've ever wished such a death on anyone."

Amon looks around for any sign of which direction the gorillas came from.

With the fighting over, Caoimhe lowers he fists and heads to Cedros' side. "It's good you're okay," she says, unusually terse for her, though given the circumstances it might not come as a surprise. Seeing that her charge is unharmed, she takes a seat on the ground next to him and relaxes for a moment, listening to Naia's song as she closes her eyes to calm down.

"As much as I'd rather not believe these woods are dangerous, it appears that Morag is right... No more trekking off alone. Privacy comes second to safety," Cedros says, his aged voice now returning to a confident tone. He steps over to the fallen Kawani, taking a knee next to him, and quietly saying a prayer to himself. Cedros places a hand on the earth near Koro, placing his other on the man's boot.

After a moment, he stands up again. "If somebody could bury him..." the dwarf says more than asks, turning to the rest of you with an uncomfortable look.

Daris gives Dolorian a nod, with no shovels he begins unbuckling his shield to use it to dig. "Koro was part Imardanian right? I didn't get to know him well enough to know if he was a follower of Elys or not. Are there any burial rituals we should follow?" He asks, mostly looking to Dolorian, the other Imardanian, wanting to lay the dead hunter to rest with respect.

With the grave dug, Daris buckles his shield back on to his arm and walks over to Koro's body. He grabs the sturdier looking parts of what remains of the man, and drags the corpse over and then into the grave. "Anyone want to say anything while we fill it in?" He asks before starting to shovel the earth back onto the body.

"His departure will not be forgotten," Cedros says, still holding the dead man's bow, gripping it tightly while wearing a frown. "I will try my best to ensure that Koro's death will be both the first, and the last that this expedition sees."

Once Daris has piled the earth atop Koro's grave, the dwarf places the bow atop it carefully. He nods to the man, before stepping back near Caoimhe.

Naia shakes her head, unable to recall much of Kawani culture, given its limited community. Despite this, she feels a certain kinship as they both hailed from Forelle. Staring down at the grave, she says, "May the seas guide your spirit home, Koro."

Without a shovel of any kind, Amon does his best to try to help out, finding a hollowed out piece of tree to act as a crude digging device. Once Koro is laid inside, Amon bows his head in silence as the others speak up. He didn't know the man well, but his company spoke for his character, so he will clearly be missed. Amon waits for the others to say their good-byes as he waits to help finish the burial.

[sblock=Dolorian]In your experience with Chathran culture, you remember learning about their burials in passing conversation. Optimal resting places are those that have plenty of access to the sun, and are as minimal as possible — not to interfere with the natural landscape.

It is thought that when Jurva shines upon your resting place, you will experience a pleasurable afterlife.

Many Chathrans create a ring of small, loose stones around a burial site to 'invite' Jurva's gaze from above.[/sblock]

Dolorian sighs somberly, "I don't know much about the Kawani, but I do recall a Chathran burial rite. Let's gather some loose stones - a dozen should suffice. We'll arrange them in a circle around the grave." Dolorian spends a few minutes gathering stones with anyone who will help, before arranging them as he described. Dolorian finally stands at the foot of the grave and prays, "May the sun find your resting place."

After a moment of silence, Ryuu clears his throat. "If we all don't mind... can we keep moving? I don't do well with the whole..." He looks at the grave. "Burial thing." He forces a smile.

"Death happens."

Proper mourning can come later. For now, Morag hardens her voice and snaps at Ryuu.

"Get used to it. If we don't get our act together, he won't be the only one."

"You're not wrong there," Daris says to Morag. "Although we should keep moving. We've done all we can for Koro now and we've still got a lot of ground to cover," he says, walking over to Valcus. He gives the lion a pat on the shoulder before sticking his foot into one of the stirrups and slinging his over leg over the beast, mounting him.

Ilmoto clenches his good fist, not knowing what to say about Koro.

And so another life was taken by Kandoras. Was my parents funeral like this? Ilmoto asks himself, realising that he may never find a satisfying answer.

[sblock=OOC]Please vote if you'd rather do Watch RP or not. These are great chances to build relationships with the other PCs and see how they tick. It's also a good way to help you get further in the groove of your own PC.

However, it can take a few days to get each small group's roleplay sesh completed based on scheduling. So vote if you'd prefer to do so this time, or skip til the next day.[/sblock]

[sblock=OOC]I don't mind more RP.
Do we need a long rest after a single encounter though, or was the question more in general Grom?[/sblock]

Dolorian's efforts at gathering stones are aided by Cedros, though his aged frame only allows him to gather a handful before you've gotten the rest. Koro's grave is not one fit for a king, but it is fitting for the little time and few resources you have available.

With Ryuu and Daris urging for your continued trekking, the group of you continue moving through the jungles.

In the wake of Koro's death, the mood has soured since the excited banter from the earlier afternoon. Most of the next three hours is spent in relative quiet, pushing through the thick vegetation with occasional breaks for Ilmoto's alchemical cleansing to take effect and make you more comfortable.

Despite the heavy canopy above, you can tell that the sun has begin to set and the rainforest begins to dim. Cedros calls for a night's rest. "We will be resting in three shifts, like the night before," the dwarf calls, setting up his rest area the best he can despite the moisture present on the ground. "I suppose I will volunteer for the first one, this time."

[sblock=OOC]Watch RP time! We will split into small groups to handle this. Easiest way to do this is with IM groups on Discord.

Claim your shifts so we can get this rolling![/sblock]

"Someone wake me up for the last shift."

Morag goes to bed. She's angry and tired and she wants a chance to sleep without getting woken up a few hours in.

"I'll take the first watch then."
Ilmoto softly mumbles while setting up some simple ward spells.

[sblock=OOC]Warforged racial:
Unsleeping Watcher: You do not sleep and instead enter a state of inactivity for 4 hours to gain the benefits of an extended rest. While in this state, you are fully aware of your surroundings and notice approaching enemies and other events as normal.

I want to reflavour this racial feature as setting up some simple ward spells.[/sblock]

"I ain't sleepin' soundly after today. Aye, first watch for me too," Naia says, the day's events not leaving her very tired. The jungle ain't nothin' like the seas, that's for sure.

[sblock=OOC]I'll take 1st watch. Naia also has Trance, so she only has to sleep 4 hours and is fully aware of her surroundings. Let's say she's a light sleeper[/sblock]

With everyone else already shooting for the early and late shift, Amon decides to bite the bullet. "I'll take the middle shift, then."
