Mallaby leads the group down to the harbor, and out on to a pier where an elderly, but sturdy looking ship is tied up. A bemused looking ox is being hoisted aboard via a crane, and several of its fellows mill about on the dock. Sailors not involved in the hoisting watch the process stoically...

"Of a sort, yes," Mallaby says. "It is narrow gap which runs through the landscape of northern Allaria, as if cut by a sword, never deviating from its path. It runs from the wasteland in the center of the continent to a place near the coast. It is not a natural part of the landscape, and some...

Despite Takahaan's encouragement, Hú Lí's playing seems a bit off, and the creatures are unaffected. Perhaps it is the creature's screech still ringing in her ears.Standard: Vicious Mockery (Will) vs. Pneckosaur 2: 8(1d20) +8 = 16 miss. Save vs. Dazed: 7(1d20) = 7 that's three missed.The Black...

Though the creature's screech still rings in her ears, Hú Lí nonetheless counters with her own music, a lilting tune which distracts a soaring creature, directing its flight directly into the eager blade of Noriaki. Hú Lí shakes her head, but still can not clear the ringing.Standard (and only)...

"A curious beast," Hú Lí says. "I wonder what killed it? It is wounded, but there is no blood." She sniffs at the carcass. "It has been here long enough that we did not hear it fall, yet the insects have not descended on it."Heal check on dead bird-reptile: 10(1d20) +7 = 17

"Zardi, my friend!" Mallaby shouts as the big barbarian enters the room. "I am very gratified that you have arrived." "No, no, it appears they're all enjoying themselves. But come, let me get you a drink, and you can hear about my latest expedition. I do hope you will be joining."
