Stowaway

Great Desert of Skulls

It had taken a lot of frustrating arguments, hand gestures and the promise of gold and violence but eventually Malacost had gotten his point across to these heathen desert savages.

He convinced the group to stage an attack against the oasis. He could see the men were terrified, and he imagined it had something to do with the witch and the two robed people that seemed to be in charge. They had the stink of magik about them too.

The plan was simple. Take this opportunity while the travellers were making repairs to their large barque, fake an attack long enough to attract their defenses to the oasis and than stowaway.

There was no way he was going loose track of this witch too. Plus the way she carried herself this one seemed like she could be an even larger prize than the other two wretches he had hunted down.
