Brutrumukk sighed in relief along with the scarecrow as the [s]bugbear[/s] gnome managed to prevent Jub from casting the spell.

That relief did not last long though.

"STOP! By order of King Gullop the Nineteenth, you are under arrest! Stop running!"

[color=brown]"Oh bugger!"[/color] Brutrumukk cursed as he watched the knights approach.

"Oh dear, well that simply won't do!"
"You'd best take a swamp gas balloon out of Downfall!"
"Unless you wanna end up like us! We can chat forever!"

[color=brown]"As much as I'd enjoy a trip down to Acheron, I'd much rather go on that trip as more'n just an 'ead."[/color] Brutrumukk commented. [color=brown]"Where can we get one o' these gas balloons?"[/color]

"You can grab a balloon and escape over there! Hurry!" The scarecrow answered while pointing out a nearby building.

[color=brown]"Cheers."[/color] Brutrumukk said before turning to Jub. [color=brown]"You 'eard the scarecrow, booyagh! 'Urry!"[/color]

As Jub got moving, the sound of birdsong met Brutrumukk's ears, giving the [s]bugbear[/s] gnome an idea. Calling upon his newfound gift for speaking with small beasts, Brutrumukk began making sounds and performing gestures that would communicate to the birds that he would give them food if they helped him and Jub escape the knights and make it to the gas balloon.
