Every man in the crowd was handed a stone.
"This elf deserves to die!" roared the cleric.
Stones hit him. He screamed. People ran out of rocks and as more were passed out people threw other things. He was hit with sewing needles, belts, spit, everything the people had. The pain became truly unbearable.
Then, a dagger pierced his heart and the pain finally ended.
True to his word the horses Sahide had given them got Entreri and Jarlaxle to the Moonwood within three days.
Jarlaxle was stunned at the sheer beauty of the wood. Many of the trees were almost 100 feet tall; some of them even taller. The trees gave complete coverage making the light an eerie green glow. It was beautiful.
"Do not forget the pretending to be Drizzt will not work here," Entreri noted to his awed companion.
Jarlaxle just dumbly nodded his head.
"The elves will not appreciate a drow in their forest," Sahide said calmly beside them.
Jarlaxle stared at the cat.
"How'd you get here?" he cried out in astonishment.
"I rode in one of your saddlebags."
"How?"
In answer to Jarlaxle's question Sahide shrunk. It didn't take long for him to become small enough to fit into the saddlebags on the horses.
Jarlaxle was just about to ask exactly what Sahide was, but Entreri raised his hand to silence the annoyed dark elf.
"We're surrounded," he signed.
True enough as Jarlaxle looked around he realized that they were completely surrounded by elves. Somehow Jarlaxle doubted that he and his companion would survive this little trip.
"Great," muttered Nova Von Houchie.
Why did Artemis always have to get scared will SHE was in the middle of a fight? Not like she had time to ponder this.
"Great." There just wasn't any time to think when one was and adventurer.
