                      Mission to Green Valley Gate, Chapter One

"It don't look too promising," Rabid Moose commented, and spat into the surf.

"This is the outside," Vengeance told him.  "There's supposed to be an inside, in the 
crater of the volcano.  Supposed to be nicer."

The five men gazed up at the jagged slope above the small cove, where a few buildings 
clung to a beach.  Beyond and above them, a road led to what looked like the mouth of 
a lighted cave.  As the ship glided into the harbor, more details became visible, 
including the sight of men and women unloading crates full of fish, and then the they 
saw a wide one-story building with a bright red sign over the door.  A warm breeze 
from the island brought a scent of green growing things, and the odor of dead fish. 
And a slight hint of rotten eggs.

"Monster!" said Teddy Brewster, pointing.  "A two-headed dog!"

The four other gladiators peered at the shore.  "Huh," Teetotaler grunted. "You'd 
think something like that'd be wild and dangerous, but a couple of kids are petting 
it."

"Canid Mortalis," Tortured Trout offered. Tallish and thin, he had long, red-dyed hair 
pulled into a braid down his back, and a long, scraggly brown beard.  "You find them 
around chaos gates sometimes, the chaotic energy mutates them.  Their bite is 
poisonous because they eat plants containing aconite.  Not all of their pups are born 
alive, but supposedly the aconite stabilizes the mutations.  I never heard of them 
being tame, though."  He pressed his lips together.  He was a mage but he had no 
healing ability.  They did have a few healing potions, but that was all. He didn't 
know how to treat aconite poisoning.

As their small ship, the Lazy Daisy, pulled up to the dock, Rabid Moose kept watching 
the kids with the dog, but Vengeance and his lieutenant, Teetotaler, began sending 
sailors to the hold to get the team's luggage.

The land sloped up from the docks into a crescent of rocky ground packed with 
buildings that faced the water, and two other tiers of buildings above the dockside 
ones.  The wide building in the lowest row, the one with the big red sign, turned out 
to be a tavern.  The script looked foreign, but under the words was a picture of a 
tankard of ale.

Two men and a woman, all of them brawny, came down the dock leading light pony carts 
with net sides.  The ship's captain called down to them to take the gladiators' 
luggage first. Then he came over to the five men at the rail and said, "Welcome to 
Herring.  It's been a pleasure having you all ride with us. There be monsters in the 
sea, and we liked knowing that you would fight them if it come to that.  And you been 
real polite, too. Good luck with your mission.  We'll come by again in a couple weeks, 
if you're still here by then and need a ride back to Alastari. Same low price."

Once on shore, the five men followed their luggage carts uphill, on a switchback road, 
to the cave opening. A warm breeze came out of it, smelling of green crops and rotten 
eggs, but not of fish.

"What are these light?" Teetotaler asked, stopping to gaze at one of the lamps in the 
cave walls.  "That's a bright, steady light."

"It's a flammable gas that comes out of the ground," answered Tortured Trout.  "I've 
read about it. That's the rotten egg smell, you know.  Swamp gas. They've found a way 
to bottle it and use it.  Very clever folks, here."

Teetotaler frowned.  "Wouldn't that be dangerous?"

"Oh, it is.  But the occasional explosion isn't a high price for all the convenience.  
I hope they have this kind of lighting at our hotel.  It's excellent for reading. I 
wonder if I can buy a few bottles of the stuff to use with my spells."  

Marduk grimaced.  He seldom spoke, but now he said, "Wasn't someone supposed to meet 
us here?  Someone magical?"  He glanced at the Trout.  "Besides you I mean."

"He'll probably be at the hotel," Vengeance told him.  "I was told he came here ahead 
of us, to make preparations."

The cave was a tunnel through the volcano's wall.  As they emerged from the other end 
of it, they found themselves at the top tier of a the town of Coldbridge, which 
marched down the south side of the volcanic cauldron.  Beyond the town, a lush 
patchword of pastures and planted fields lay beneath a layer of soft mist.  

Their inn, the Green Valley Host, was two tiers down, but just before the five men 
could follow their luggage into the inn yard, a scream echoed down the street.  There 
was a warbling snarl. They saw a pair of teenagers trying to fight off a giant six-
legged, armored thing wielding a short sword and a weighted net.

"CHAAAARRRGE!" Teddy Brewster roared, racing toward the fight. Vengeance, Teetotaler, 
Rabid Moose, and Marduk caught up with him, their weapons drawn.  Only Tortured Trout 
held back a little, still walking toward the fight, his lips and hands moving as he 
prepared a spell.  

The boy fell to the street, bleeding from the chest and abdomen, and the girl slashed 
at the monster with a big knife.  Her blade broke against the thing's armor, or 
armored hide, as the rescuers arrived.

                                   * * * * * * * *

                         Mission to Green Valley, Chapter Two

Teddy Brewster's headlong charge made him the first to reach the young girl being 
attacked by the armored... thing. But Vengeance was right behind him to back him up, 
or bail him out of trouble if needed.  The weapon Teddy wielded was not the official 
equipment of any gladiator in Greywand's arenas.  It was long, curved and heavy like a 
scimitar but with a wickedly hooked tip, made of a blue-tinted metal.  The hilt was 
two-handed, wrapped in leather, ending in a heavy lead club.  As he reached the 
monster he pivoted and kicked, landing the steel toe of his boot between two of its 
six limbs, apparently attacking ribs.  There was a loud thud, and the creature 
grunted, interrupting its low-pitched warble.  The teenaged girl tried to pull away 
from the monster, but its first pair of limbs tightened the clawed fingers imbedded in 
her shoulders and she screamed in pain.  Following up with a mighty swing of his 
weapon, the gladiator struck the creature's side, the blade cutting into the armor, 
his arms feeling the powerful impact, but with no sign of blood or other fluids. 
Whatever the thing was made of, it was tough.

At least it was distracted; it let go of the girl, and Vengeance pulled her away.  She 
stumbled back, her tanned face pale, eyes wide. The shoulders of her shirt were red 
with much too much blood.

"Get them to safety!" Vengeance grated.  Marduk bent and picked up the unconscious, 
bleeding boy.  Rabid Moose, not too swift on the uptake, realized he should get the 
girl into the hotel.  Teetotaler loomed near as the teenagers were carried toward the 
building.  As Teetotaler and Vengeance set themselves on opposite sides of the alien 
creature, Tortured Trout called out, "Get back!  Incoming!"

Vengeanced and Teetotaler each took a step back.  A bright light streaked from the 
Trout's hands to the six-legged creature, making it glow for a moment.  It screamed.  
Then the glow faded. The creature shuddered and uttered a strange chortling sound, 
then pivoted on its rear four legs and lunged at Vengeance.

"Oops," said Tortured Trout.  "Sorry boss.  New spell, needs work."

Although he met it with the point of his blade in the alien's abdominal armor, 
Vengeance staggered back from the heavy impact and felt its claws in his chest.  
Teetotaler barrelled into the thing from the side, knocking it away from his boss, 
plunging his spear into its body.  This time, with Teetotaler's considerable mass 
behind it, the blade penetrated the armor and sank a good eight inches into the 
thing's body.  It shrieked, a quavering sound that hurt everyone's ears.

"Get back!" said the Trout. "Lightning!"

They knew this spell worked, so Vengeance and Teetotaler backed up.  Vengeance's blade 
came free; Teetotaler's remained stuck, but he let go of it.  They ducked their heads 
and covered their eyes.  There was a sharp ozone smell as the lightning hit.  All 
three gladiators felt a jolt up through the ground, making their feet and legs tingle, 
but they all knew from bitter experience to keep their sphincters tight.

With a hoarse and fading scream, the alien fell to the pavement.  Its charred body 
broke into smoking chunks.  It smelled a bit like roasted meat, but not something that 
might be edible.

"Good one, Trout," Vengeance gasped, shaking the tingles out of his body.  He looked 
down at the remains of his bloody shirt.  "Damn.  This doesn't rate a healing potion, 
I think.  Stitches and bandages, yeah?"

"They must have a medic around here," Teetotaler said.  He offered his shoulder to 
Vengeance, who slung an arm over him.

As they helped Vengeance into the hotel, Marduk and Teddy Brewster came to meet them.  
"Let that be a lesson to the monsters," Brewster said.  Marduk added, "We have a 
healer.  This way."

They led the combatants into a meeting room off the lobby. Though he was in pain, 
Vengeance noticed a small humanoid tending to the two teenagers, who lay on a pair of 
leather couches, already bandaged. The room smelled of something herbal.

Marduk said, "Orv, these are Tortured Trout, Teetotaler, and our boss, Vengeance."  He 
looked at Vengeance.  "This is Orv, sent by Lady Greywand to help us."

Orv, who seemed rather like a human child of about eight years, nodded gravely at 
Vengeance.  "Please sit.  I have made poultices and a healing tea.  Those creatures, 
the Kharack, have unclean claws that leave infections."  Its voice was light, but 
could be either male or female.

"What else can you tell us about them?" Vengeance asked, dropping into a leather 
armchair.

"From what I have learned, they are a peaceful race, but the ones here are not at all 
peaceful.  They hate everything that is not their kind."

"Then why didn't they stay where they came from?"

The little being shrugged, as he (or she) helped Vengeance to remove his tattered 
shirt.  "Hatred is uncooperative."

                                   * * * * * * * *

                          Mission to Green Valley, Chapter 3

     "Hatred is uncooperative?" Vengeance muttered.  The members of the team were 
unpacking their bags in a suite on the third floor of the hotel, the Green Valley 
Host.  Lady Greywand would have paid for private rooms, but Vengeance thought that, 
considering how bold the chaos invaders had gotten, it would be better for the 
Valley's defenders to remain in a group.  They did have separate beds, at least.  They 
had designated the central parlor as their armory, and there were weapons and armor 
arranged around on tables and sofas.  Vengeance inspected the goods, making sure there 
was no damage and that nothing sharp was going to slice up the upholstery.
     Tortured Trout perched on a chair, pen and notebook poised in case they needed to 
make a list of supplies to buy.  "I think that Orv person is no kind of fighter," he 
said.  "His perspective is very different than ours.  It's good that he's a healer, 
though.  We needed one."
     There was a knock on the door.
     "Come!" Vengeance called out.
     A young woman in a maid's uniform opened the door.  "Sirs, Orv has requested you 
to come to a meeting room down on the second floor.  The body of the... the monster is 
there.  He said there are things you should see."
     "Oh, good," said the Trout.  "I'll get the others."

     A few minutes later the six of them, plus the childlike Orv, were gathered around 
a table on which lay the alien corpse.  The lower portion of its body was still 
armored in leather-coated plates, but the top was naked.  During the fight, the 
creature had appeared heavy and stocky, but now they could see that it was lean, 
almost skinny.  Its flesh looked soft, with short black fur.  Its face was unlike any 
animal they had seen.  The eyes were bumps on the crest of the furry skull.  Between 
the eyes and the mouth, a pointed muzzle poked up, slitlike nostrils hard to spot in 
the fur.  The mouth, underneath the muzzle, was a vertical opening with flexible lips 
which hung open to reveal sharp-looking teeth.
     Teetotaler said, "It looks kinda like a giant, six-legged weasel with a weird 
ugly face.  Except the first pair of legs is arms and hands."  Seeing a thin chain 
around the thing's neck with some kind of pendant on it, he reached for it.
     "Please don't touch that," said Orv.  "It's magical, I think, and could be 
harmful to people of our world."
     Tortured Trout leaned closer to the pendant, and murmured a spell.  "Yes," he 
said after a few seconds.  "Its purpose is to enable this creature to breathe our air, 
and it will poison anything from Ghea."  He did another spell, and the pendant was 
encased in amber.  "We should dispose of this, or toss it through the gate."
     Vengeance said, "Orv, you told us that most individuals of this species are 
peaceful.  How do you know that?"
     "Because I went through the gate, and I saw a large group of creatures of this 
kind trying to stop the few that did come through here.  But the ones intent on coming 
through were armed and armored, and they slaughtered the others."
     Marduk said, "If their atmosphere is so deadly, how did you survive there?"
     "I brought a bubble of our world's atmosphere with me.  But I don't recommend you 
try it.  That is not even a short-term solution.  Their world is deadly to us."
     "How many came through?" Vengeance asked.
     "Counting this one, there were seven."  The little spirit, or demigod, looked at 
all the gladiators one by one.  "I believe there is nothing they desire here except to 
kill.  They're in this valley.  I can help you find them."
     Vengeance nodded.  "There's plenty of daylight left.  So let's gear up, and go."

     In less than half an hour, the team was armed and armored.  The guests and staff 
of the Green Valley Host turned out to watch them leave, with many good wishes for 
their safety and success.
     "We need to head for the sulfur swamp," Orv said, as they all walked down the 
switchback street that zigzagged through the town of Coldbridge.  "There's an 
underwater passage to a cave that is the entrance to the other world."
     Marduk said, "With something so poisonous at the bottom of the valley, why is 
this place so fertile?"
     "Lady Greywand did spells to make it so," Orv told them.  "The poison is limited 
to the swamp.  You wouldn't want to spend much time in the hot springs there, but it 
doesn't spread, and you can swim through the water briefly without harm."

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

Hey there.

Crysalis had 29 fights this turn.  If you like a smaller community, you got it.  There 
were four challenges.  One fighter died.  Sentinels avoided Royal Flush.

     OZYMANDIUS (7-2521) (23-12-1,98) of SENTINELS fought DROP A DIME (24-5575) (17-
16-0,67) of NO QUARTER.  OZYMANDIUS easily killed DROP A DIME in an exciting 1 minute 
gory one-sided contest.  Ozymandius was the most challenged fighter.
     Nice upset here.  BRISTOL (32-5629) (55-29-0,203) of WORLD BLADES 4 fought ICE 
CREAM MAN (51-5584) (40-37-0,174) of VAN DUEL.  BRISTOL was subdued by ICE CREAM MAN 
in a 2 minute match.  For this, Ice Cream Man was awarded 32 recognition points.
     This looked like a good adjustment in the rankings.  SLEET (52-4392) (28-16-1,75) 
of WEATHER fought THE VEAL DEAL (45-5251) (23-13-0,36) of HOWLIN SLAUGHTER.  SLEET was 
outwaited by THE VEAL DEAL in a crowd boring 24 minute gruesome bout.  Sleet lost 25 
recognition points, and The Veal Deal is currently our least popular fighter.
     SEAGULL (31-6637) (21-33-1,81) of BIRDS challenged DODGE'EM DUDE (31-7019) (29-
43-1,100) of AVENGERS.  SEAGULL narrowly defeated DODGE'EM DUDE in a crowd pleasing 3 
minute Challenge duel.  Nice upset.
     Hari-Kari has successfully depended its title.  HARI-KARI (73-3049) (158-18-
0,652) of WAY TO GO! II fought TRIUMPH (97-7395) (63-55-5,218) of CANADIAN CLASSICS.  
HARI-KARI slimly won victory over TRIUMPH in a popular 5 minute bloody Title duel.  
Still the Champion of the Horn, still the best Aimed Blow.
     UNCLE FESTER (59-2768) (86-116-1,214) of TALL TALES fought DISCO QUEEN (47-1992) 
(173-41-3,558) of ROYAL FLUSH.  UNCLE FESTER was overcome by DISCO QUEEN in an action 
packed 1 minute melee.  Disco Queen is the leading Parry-Strike and the overall 
popularity leader.
     This was a good fight.  STAINLESS STEEL (10-7200) (96-37-1,231) of STEEL BLADES 
fought G W BUSH (59-2764) (76-126-2,221) of TALL TALES.  STAINLESS STEEL narrowly 
defeated G W BUSH in a crowd pleasing 5 minute gory brawl.  Stainless Steel is our top 
Total Parry, and G W Bush is top Striker and this turn's favorite fighter.
     The top Slasher is Zhou XI.  ZHOU XI (21-5151) (46-47-4,212) of KANO CLAN fought 
DURANDAL (15-5798) (61-46-0,206) of BLADES OF DOOM.  ZHOU XI vanquished DURANDAL in an 
action packed 1 minute one-sided duel.
     INNUIT (50-3795) (58-68-2,187) of WORLD BLADES 12 fought CARNIVORE PARROT (85-
8440) (28-9-2,210) of JUNGLE JUICE.  INNUIT was viciously subdued by CARNIVORE PARROT 
in an action packed 3 minute duel.  Carnivore Parrot is Crysalis' leading Lunger.
     Our highest ranked Wall of Steel is Halfling.  HALFLING (32-5897) (42-64-0,193) 
of WORLD BLADES 4 fought ARMENIUS (47-9159) (44-69-0,188) of WHITE WOLVES.  HALFLING 
overpowered ARMENIUS in a 2 minute brutal one-sided fight.
     KNOS THE AXE (74-4394) (72-33-1,208) of BATTLEAXE STAMPEDE fought MATSURI (29-
4256) (41-45-0,174) of BLACK SAMURAI.  KNOS THE AXE beat MATSURI in an exciting 5 
minute match.  Matsuri is our best Wall of Steel.
     Brutus is the most devastating Basher.  WEAPON DELTA III (52-4636) (20-8-1,134) 
of PHOENIX FORCE III fought BRUTUS (47-9380) (32-67-3,130) of WHITE WOLVES.  WEAPON 
DELTA III was savagely defeated by BRUTUS in an action packed 3 minute bout.
     VENUS (28-5013) (28-18-0,85) of PLANETS challenged SINNAMON LUV (9-6452) (19-14-
0,92) of SINN'RS 'R US.  VENUS savagely defeated SINNAMON LUV in an exciting 5 minute

That's it for this report.  See ya!
