Return to Silver Drift

Spirit and I, with Blodeuwedd flapping about overhead, sail on the raft over a mile of choppy water to the north shore of the lake. When we’re about twenty yards away from the shore, the lake serpents attack and with my improved swordplay, I can hit them easily but I’m not doing any damage because they have armour at 300 and even with the two saints’ blessings on my sword, it just isn’t enough to hurt them.

They tilt the raft alarmingly and I think we’re going to go in. Then Spirit pitches in and stamps on the thing causing it damage and the tentacle lets go.

“Whoa, boy! You did really good there.” I stroke his nose and he whinnies. I think we’re getting on better. I’m really grateful for his help or we’d have been pitched into the lake and I can’t swim.

Even so, it’s a trifle shaming that your horse is a better fighter than you are.

I get to the forest and mount Spirit. It’s great to be able to ride him even though I don’t have a lance yet. I’m able to cover ground faster too on horseback.

As we go through the gloomy trees, I’m hoping to hear the werewolves and when I hear their now familiar howl, I’m grinning all over my face.

Three of them rush at me out of the trees, snarling, showing yellow teeth and amber eyes.

I spur Silver at them. He rears up and clatters his hooves onto the first one. I twist left in the saddle and bring down my sword. I hit easily.

<You slash werewolf for 38>

<Anti-shifter effect triggers: werewolf is destroyed>

The werewolf explodes in a shower of silver sparks. Now that is a neat effect, even if it only works on shifted creatures.

I turn right and do the same to the werewolf on the right.

The third wolfman starts to run, but I spur Spirit after him. I come up level and slash down with the sword and the werewolf explodes and that’s that.

<For your part in the fight, you are awarded 300xp>

I notice I don’t get any reputation this time, but I guess that’s because I’m at maximum.

This Star Silver is an awesome augment and I wonder why everyone doesn’t have it. I guess it must be a secret quest that Mercurius heard of somewhere, add that to the fact you need to be a miner of a certain level and a good enough fighter to get to the island in the first place, that might explain why Star Silver isn’t on everyone’s sword. And of course the quest isn’t repeatable.

Even on horseback it’s a long ride home. I slaughter some fox-men for 300xp after I leave Tregundern. To be honest I eye the church there and long for the rapid travel ability. Roll on Level 10.

I stop for food at the witch’s house and once again she’s eager to please and grateful for the pennies.

I get waylaid by a Palug Cat in the Forest of Inglewood. This massive leopard like beast with sabre teeth is new to me.
