For Salphur, Hurlon and Bober:
Bober's thrown rock missed the orc, and Bober then lunged at the orc along with Salphur and Hurlon. But none of them got the orc. The unmistakable sound of an arrow flying in the air could be heard and the orc suddenly halted, the arrow sticking out from betwenn its eyes. After a few seconds of motionlessness the orc fell to the ground, dead. Before either Salphur, Hurlon or Bober could react they fealt heavy objects striking them at the backs of their heads.
They woke up individually several hours later.
====================================
For Bober:
Bober's waking was gentle. A soft forest breeze and the music like voice of elves was what woke him. An elderly, extremely wise looking elf stood over him.
"I learnt, much from you in your sleep, young dwarf. You have gone through many perils, yet your heart has remained unscathed. Our scouts had been following you and your two captors from the stronghold. I am sorry for us having to take you by force. We could not take any unnecessary risks. You are free to continue on your journey, however I request of you to stay a few more hours, while we investigate the matter of your companions deeper."
The elf left Bober alone to his thoughts in the soft leaves, which formed a bed.
====================================
For Hurlon:
Hurlon's waking was much more abrupt than that of Bober. The same elderly elf stood over him, as the one who had seen Bober just a few minutes ago.
"I have read much of your heart in your sleep too. You have committed evil deeds, yet I see good in your heart. I am willing to let you go with one condition: never travel with Salphur again, and don't follow the evil path again. Do you accept these conditions?"
====================================
For Salphur:
Salphur's awakening was the most abrupt of all three. He was roughly shaken awake by two elven guards, while a young man stood over him.
"You Salphur are a disgrace to the elven race. Many are those who have cursed your name. Among your acts one of the worst was corrupting that young human Hurlon. Have you got any explanation to offer for your acts?"
