At Bita-Bousseh's gasp of horror, PA'AVU looks back over her own shoulder to see what the barrister has seen. The goliath may still be clutching her gosb'tar and his mate in her sturdy grasp, but the thing they call The Mind is now behind them, caught up in a strange sort of whirlpool. Clearly...

PA'AVU closes her eyes to remove the confusion that her muddled sense of sight is giving her. Her other senses will have to fill in the gaps and complete the true picture. Ah! There they are, just beyond her. The pungent smell of young warriors; the warmth of fellow bodies; the taste of their...

As they stand at the edge of the woods, gazing at the scene before them, NEMO lifts up a hand and closes it (a sign familiar to everyone, to be still and quiet). Then, pointing a finger to himself and then to the barely visible trail ahead, the young halfling stealthily creeps forward as quietly...

The second time TORIQ hears the halfling's stomach growl - how can such a small body make such a prodigious sound? - she turns to the others and suggests they hunker down for a moment for a bit of sustenance. As they check in their satchels for a portion of the rations that Juniper has provided...

JENDI recognizes that his sister will take some convincing to continue following his navigation using his maps, but she has only made study of the land aboveground: his studies have included what lies below. The basic shapes of the riverbeds, he believes, remain - mostly - the same as are...

Here are the values for the company's APs/Surges/Current HPs: Jendi: 0 APs; Surges: 6/8; HPs: 24/26 Mylistra: 0 APs; Surges: 5/8; HPs: full (24) Nemo: 1 AP; Surges: 4/7; HPs: full (24) Toriq: 1 AP; Surges: 7/10; HPs: full (30) Toriq's new quest: rid Dryope's grove and area around it of the...

At the collapse of their final feral twigling foe, Dryope steps slowly out of the bramble bush where she has most recently sought refuge and makes her way over to Toriq, almost falling into her arms, weeping in nervous exhaustion and gratitude. Toriq, putting hand under her beloved's chin and...

While her gosb'tar is working his charm on the strange crystalline dragons, PA'AVU studies closely the prismatic vapor pouring out of central meeting of the otherworldly stalactite/stalagmite structure before them. Although she would feel more comfortable enduring its toxins alone, for the rest...

Seeing the doors almost closed, PA'AVU leaps off her horse and begins to run as fast as possible - pushing herself to her limits - down the stone path, bounding onto and up the stairs. Finally, when the goliath is almost out of breath and still about 25 feet away from the enormous doors, now...

PA'AVU listens to the painstakingly pronounced words of the lead scout in complete silence and stillness. When she has finished her say, the goliath continues staring stolidly at her, seemingly in ponderous thought. In truth, Chanvati's Sahtree is carefully listening to and considering his sent...

The party would like to check in with Dryope and make sure her situation is okay, and Jendi will of course try to convince the others to help him find the vault. Actions points as follows (due to having reached a milestone): Jendi & Mylistra: 1 AP each Nemo & Toriq: 2 APs each

JENDI hears the loggers' change of route and mentally scans through what his sister has taken to calling his "bag of trick" to see if there is some "trick" he has not yet used which might profit their cause (and keep them here in the forest, close by the mark indicating the sunken vault on his...

A ring of Iron Gorgons and Grimtooths, as well as Bita-Bousseh and her consort (both acting as Pa'avu's servile advisor and amusement, respectively), is formed behind the ridge and out of sight and hearing of Omthalans down below. PA'AVU prepares for her physical contesting of rights to the...

As the words of Bordris penetrate TORIQ's ears, she can almost hear Mylistra's muscles stiffen next to her - monstrous spider disguise notwithstanding. She herself can feel the wild frenzy of rage fill her own gut, and she lets out a low growl of threat at the revelation of what has been done to...

Pa'avu watches both scenes, apparently impassively, but within herself her mind is whirling with possibilities and scenarios, while her gut is roiling with memory. Whether that priest is Omthalan or not is not of import to her: his vile and unnatural act of altering the living into the...

During the short rest, Surges remaining/total and Action Points remaining for each PC: Jendi = 8/8 and 0 AP remaining Mylistra = 7/8 (and uses Healing Word on herself) and 0 AP remaining Nemo = 5/7 and 1 AP remaining Toriq = 8/10 and 1 AP remaining. Only Toriq is not at full HP: she is at 29/30...

TORIQ leans down to murmur in her brother's ear, something about the common fears of spiders that might give them some insight into keeping them at bay. JENDI, thinking quickly about what he may hold in his "bag of tricks," stares directly at the enormous arachnid with a menacing grin. Then, he...

MYLISTRA, reaching up with one hand to clasp the moonstone pendant around her neck, bares her teeth and thrusts her other hand out in a gesture of repulsion. The teenaged boy gives a cry of terror and turns around, running back in the direction they they have just come from, his father's hand...

At the sound of the two figures approaching, Mylistra immediately lifts her hand and closes it into a fist, causing Nemo to stop immediately, soon followed by Toriq and her brother. The cleric then lifts her finger to her lips, indicating a need for silence, before pointing out the two men...

Mylistra exchanges worried glances with her mentor: it seems that Elena's situation is becoming increasingly dire. Juniper grimaces and says wryly, "Davos must truly need that alliance his daughter's marriage will make. Otherwise, he would never send thugs to threaten my house. He holds too...
