CHAPTER 11
I was stuck in a nightmare of trying to save Winst. I never could, no matter what I tried. My recurring dream was broken when Tammy shook me awake. It was a few seconds before I realized I was free of the cycle and needed to pee. I went into a bathroom and found a… toilet!? How had I missed this before? I released my morning buildup of urine and went to flush the toilet and found it did not work. Awe. Then I saw a bucket for water that was empty. I raced down naked to the waterfront and filled the bucket. I then bounded up three flights of stairs to do my morning thing in privacy and I even only used half a bucket of water.
Tammy was geared when I exited the bathroom and was helping Addilyn get in her armor. I walked over and assisted my wife. When they were ready for combat I went into my gear. We double checked each other and I was missing my dagger on my belt. I had taken it off for the ogre and stuck it back in my bag. Things like that mattered and was why we did checks.
The three of us worked our way down to the docks and did not have to wait long for the team to assemble.
“Morning everyone. Well Nate, it is hard to plan mid flight what were you thinking we try?” I asked him first. Sometimes his plans were infinitely better and I could adjust a lot from his input.
“These are tunnel dwelling creatures that sense vibration. I think were useless. Maybe you can handle them, but the griffins will probably be primary here. As much as I hate watching others do the dirty work, it may save all our lives in this scenario.” Nate said and opened the floor to other suggestions. “If you can think of something now is the time.”
Lazra raised a hand and Nate nodded to him. “Well, the island is circled, meaning it is inside the barrier. Maybe we never have to touch the ground. I have scampered up my fair number of trees. I could land on one without touching the ground and ferret out these tree worms. Winst was our expert on them but it’s a worm in a tree. It cannot be too hard to find. If I am the test subject, I will need some extra bottles to drop what I find into.”
That was a good idea. I was expecting to have to slug it out with the big beasts. Lord Nova landed as I was thinking the plan over.
“We do both. I want to fight these creatures. I have a feeling their hearts are like the goblins and ogres. They are cave dwellers after all. I will distract with the primary force and attempt to kill some sandworms. If I run into problems I simply retreat while being healed. Assuming they are not able to dismember me. We can always rip the trees out of the ground and fly them here.
