Mongoose
chapter 7
part two-the goddesses temple
The headmen and his warriors (including the party)take 2 days to get to the site by stealth.Hiding at night from ever bigger groups of the wild men armed too the teeth all carrying torches.
The group find themselves looking down on a hollow filled with well over 12,000 wildmen drunk on mead and dancing/chanting around huge bonfires.The caves that surround the hollow are lit up with torches the booming coming from deep from the complex stopping even speach.Any attempt at stealth will work against the mob as they are completly out of their tree.The honor guard is another question as they do not drink or dance but live only too kill to protect there new goddess.
Hand signals will be used as no speach is possible in the hollow or complex but that works both ways with guards unable too summon help.There are 15 honor guards lvl5 tribal warriors in three independant groups one guarding the entrance another always with their goddess ,the third guard the drummers.Armed with small wicker sheilds and wearing fine furs they are armed with stone axes and stone tipped spears.The main guardian of the goddess is a shaman(lvl 8 male witch)whos totem is the rat in a rat skin cloak and fur garments he wears a huge gold torc with rat images engraved on it.The goddess is a 16yr old girl who due too various pacts made by the shaman who is her father was born with blue skin and four arms(the sign of a anicent hillman tribe)carried by the father is a document promising militaryaid from the drunes too there new allys.The mortal goddess is not armed her screams and crys hidden by the drums.she is wearing a massive gold torc of anicent make with a anicent crown with a blood red ruby the greatest treasure of the hilltribes.both father and goddess will fight too the death also so will the honor guard.
The druids want her head and nothing else so after the killing the group under cover of the drums move as quickly as possible.They have about 2 hours head start in the dark before the drums stop and the corpses are found it is not the whole horde but there are 50 wildmen on there trail for vengance.instead of leading them too the settlement the group will play cat and mouse with the group till they or them are dead.
the druids will be over the moon showering praise and glory on the settlement and the warriors.The horde will break up never too be formed again but the hill tribes will never forgive or forget.and sometimes in the dark of winter the ghost of drums will be heard.
