"BEHOLD!" A voice calls from beneath the dark shroud. "For it is I, WARLOCK UNKNOWN! If thou believe thyself to be brave, then ye shall step up and draw a card from my mystical deck! It is then that I, WARLOCK UNKNOWN, will give you your fortune! But are you capable of handling such an earth-shattering portent oh brave Paladin of Bahamut?! (Laugh), draw a card if you dare!"

Warlock Unknown presents five cards randomly chosen from the deck to Velon.

Cratol replies to Velon. "If I ever claim to know women and their ways please lock me up for I wouldst think I lost my head." He smiles at that. "I think Sylmae likes me like Lia likes you. I know people at Redcliffe would love her especially if she is my wife. I know they have badgering me about a heir."

Velon's muscles tense as he hears the words spoken but he quick recognizes the voice. Dropping the head of his hammer to the floor he exclaims "By Bahamut's tale, Perry!" and exhales. He leans on the other end of the hammer and now sees Perry's sign sitting on the table. Velon relaxes a little, shakes his head, but chuckles a bit, too. "Ok, ok, you got me. I'll play along." He steps up to the table and inspects the cards. "Well, now I must prove that I am brave enough, right?" Velon puts a finger to the center most card but does not attempt to flip it over.

"Remember Perry, curse me and you will have Lia and Sune to answer to." He winks at their eccentric bard.

To Cratol's words about locking him up, Velon places his hand over his heart. "You have my word." More sincerely, he also replies regarding Sylmae. "That's great, Cratol. It's a pretty name, too!" He chuckles at the comparison to Lia, though. "Well, if she likes you the way Lia likes me, you are going to be losing a lot of sleep soon! Ha! Ah, don't tell anyone I said that. I prefer to be more, ah, modest about such things. I wouldn't rush the wife part for fear of scaring her off, but by all means if she volunteers to help with the heir part, or at least practice it, in the meantime… "Velon looks thoroughly amused by the whole thing but also sincerely happy from the young monk.

"PERRY? I DO NOT KNOW THIS BEAUTIFUL PERSON. I AM WARLOCK UNKNOWN! I COULD BE ANYBODY, YOU DON'T KNOW!" the dark figure exclaims.

Once Velon chooses the center card, a wicked grin is seen upon Warlock Unknown's face, "(Laugh), an excellent choice, young paladin."

He flips the card over to reveal, "The seven of coins, the Thief! (Laugh), bad luck indeed, o' Paladin of Bahamut! This card foretells of a crossroads, somewhere between life and death, where you shall lose your most prized material possession! You will lose it among the buried dead, (Laugh)!"

The "Unknown" voice continues, "Now, go tell your friends of your coming prophecy and bring them here to reveal their own future calamities!"

The castle lifts off and begins its journey to the east. The journey will soon take you over the Sea of Stars, the great body of water at the center of the continent.

The magic on the shards impaling Gaelin is interesting to say the least. The pieces were once part of a larger artifact, and from the looks of it it powerful chaos magic was involved. It is impossible to say at this point what the original enchantment did, but what is left on the shards seems to react to certain types of magic in less than favorable ways.

It takes several hours of study and testing between Lawrance and Poppo, but eventually they find a way to suppress the affect for a time. Actually removing it would be considerably more difficult, but suppression should suffice to physically extract the shards. With Lia there to heal the damage left behind by the metal, this should work.

Gaelin however proves… less than cooperative. He struggles with more strength than his condition would seem to allow, shouting invectives at the top of his lungs. Somehow he seems to be convinced he has been captured by orcs. "Foul scions of Gruumsh! Your stinking pig hides will be flayed from your backs for this!"

Several times he attempts to invoke divine magic, but the weave fizzles and fails, not even close to forming a proper spell.

Sylmae follows anxiously, and takes a firm hold of her brother's hand. Singing softly to him, she rubs the skin gently. Gaelin slowly quiets in response, eventually falling silent, and allowing himself to be strapped down for the operation. Lawrance can tell Sylmae is doing… something, but isn't sure exactly what. It certainly isn't a spell as he knows it, but the weave seems to resonate between the siblings as she calms her brother down.

Soon enough, Lia and Lawrance are ready to make an attempt to remove the shards. Once that is done, spells of restoration should reverse the damage that has been caused.

Wary of adding any more magic to the turmoil that surrounds this extraction, Lawrance gives Lia leather gloves and indicates she should carefully pull out the first shard that seems to pose the most danger -the head wound. Breathing shallowly to not disturb the equilibrium, he whispers guidance for her gentle touch.
SA - surgery with advantage? History roll for +5 to Lia.

Gaelin twitches and rolls his eyes madly as the shard is being removed, crying out in apparent agony. When the metal finally leaves his skull, he collapses in his restraints.

Sylmae gasps with horror, but her brother simply proves to have lost consciousness.

"Quickly! Now's the time to finish the job and remove all the fragments!" Proceeding apace, Lawrance guides where he can to get these foreign objects removed. After the last visible one has been dealt with, Lawrance carefully checks with all his senses for any smaller fragments. Once complete he says "Okay, he seems clear. Time for Sune to do her portion."
