Evening into morning
Ganyon and crew set up camp then set out for a quick hunt for the evening meal's entree.
Sanadal goes to work preparing the impromptu kitchen and gets the fire started.
The female half-orc sets up her tent, then disappears inside, along with her homonculous.
The days journey has been long, and all of you begin to feel the aftereffects in your thighs and calves. This unknown continent has earned its harsh and mysterious reputation.
Ganyon has told you all that he expects to reach the Titan's Teeth in a day or two, with the Traveler willing.
After the hunting party returned with a trussed jungle wild boar, some busy activity commenced around the fire and spit. After doctoring and fretting over the boar for an hour or two, the small gnome turns to the group and announces that dinner is ready.
Plates are arranged on a nearby blanket, next to a platter of cheeses and breads. The smell of the roast boar makes every mouth in the camp begin to salivate fiercely, and in no time everyone who eats food has set into the meal.
A few flagons of cold appear, which prompts some questions of where the gnome is getting all of the foodstuffs, which is answered with a "A civilized creature does not set foot into the jungle unprepared." as his large sack is gently patted.

The evening passes uneventfully -- only once or twice do the watch hear odd sounds -- but then again, most of the sounds in this land are still odd to the group.
Breakfast is served quickly, and Ganyon gets everyone moving as quickly as possible.
Around mid-morning, not more than 2 hours from when camp was broken, you see a hulking carcass face down on the jungle floor ahead of you. From this distance, you notice that the creature appears to have had two heads.

Voadam
Legend

Voadam's mouth quirks into a wry grin at that, apparently amused, but makes no comment.
As they travel Voadam makes a point of spending some time with Aerundil and asking him for various common phrases in elvish and then asking for corrections on his pronunciation as he is interested in learning the language.

Aeranduil is more than happy to spend time during their travels teaching Voadam the Green Wizard the basics of the elvish language. It would be nice to have someone to converse with in the tongue of his homeland.
At the sight of the hulking carcass, though, the elf breaks off from his teaching and moves to investigate the body, and more specifically the cause of death.

And if interested (once Voadam learns elvish), here is the translator I've been using: http://www.coveworld.net/eberron/aerenal_translator.html

Thanor enjoys the meal, and then the sleep earned through a long day of travel and fighting.
When morning breaks, he hauls himself out of his bedroll and stretches, giving voice to every ache and pain he encounters. He then slowly goes through the ritual of replacing his armor and weapons, and finally stands, ready to proceed.
As the party walks, he continues to think about the dwarves lost under his watch, and to envision the rewarding sensations he anticipates experiencing when they find the giants they search for, namely the feeling of his axe carving its way into a giant's leg.
When they see the body, he grunts in satisfaction tinged with a bit of envy for whatever felled the beast, but he wants nothing to do with looking at it. Instead, he stands in a position where he can watch what the others do, but also keep an eye on the surrounding area, so that nothing can catch them by surprise.

As the group swung to a stop, Ipshivi moved a bit closer in from her point near the back of the party. She looked over the massive body, keeping her distance- just in case. When some of the others moved in to investigate, she stayed where she was, and kept her senses focused on the jungle around them- whatever had killed this creature might still be nearby.

The dead creature is an ettin.
[/sblock]
[sblock=Heal DC5]
The creature has multiple wounds that would be caused by a slashing instrument.
[/sblock]
[sblock=Heal DC15]
Several puncture wounds can be seen on various parts of the body.
[/sblock]
[sblock=Heal DC25]
The shape of the puncture wounds would be consistent with a scorpion stinger.

"Ettin," Morika says shortly. "An' someone don't like the critter very well, I thinks. Don't know what did it... What, are these teeth or spears or swords or stones or what?" she asks, poking the wounds with a look of curiosity on her face.
