Krassus is looking a bit shell-shocked again, having witnessed the latest violence from a safe distance, but it still made an impression on him. Jynxx's condescending attitude doesn't seem to register on him. It takes a few minutes to convince the mule to ford the river over the broken bridge, but you're able to do it.
The rest of the journey back to Fulcrum passes without incident. The sunrod continues to light the way as night falls. The temperature drops quickly as the jungle gives way to forest, and a light rain starts about fifteen minutes before journey's end. The group arrives damp (though not thoroughly soaked), sore, hungry and tired.
ooc: I assume you are going to the inn where Castofle is supposed to be staying
The Green Skeleton Inn is pretty easy to find, as it is the only building with a sparkling, emerald-hued human skeleton nailed above its door, one bony arm and hand uplifted as if to wave hello. Up close, it's apparent that the skeleton is actually a painted wood sculpture of low quality artisanship. The building is somewhat ramshackle. It looks like it was originally a large two story house, but two long single-story wings have been added to form an L-shape. There is a covered veranda along the front that also looks like a recent addition.
Inside, the ground floor of the house has been converted into a large common room, with comfortable-looking couches and stuffed chairs, several long tables, and a circular stone fireplace that holds a roaring fire. There are a few other gaudily-painted wood sculptures in the corners and near the couches: a huge crimson dragon skull, a blue boar with purple tusks rearing up unrealistically on its hind legs, a figure that might be intended to portray an eladrin with a huge forehead, and several different types of birds. A few travelers sit around the fire drinking from bowls of soup. They look up uninterestedly.
A rotund middle-aged man in an apron approaches. "Welcome to the Green Skeleton," he says, rubbing his hands together. "Do you need a room, or care for a meal?"
