Chapter 276 Kosk pulled himself a bit further up on the thick trunk of the fallen tree and peered through the scattered undergrowth between them and the clearing. “I don’t see anything,” the dwarf said. He looked over at Bredan and Glori, who both shrugged. Mrrik couldn’t understand their...

Chapter 275 Natak moved with such unexpected speed that the fight was almost over before it began. The dragonborn’s wings pulsed as he leapt forward. He might not have been capable of flight, but it was enough to carry him across the twenty paces that separated the two combatants in the blink...

Chapter 274 Bredan’s companions emerged from the shelter of the forest’s edge and followed him out into the meadow. Mrrik and his scouts accompanied them. The sailors were the last, but after a look back at the trail behind them they moved to join the company. The rumbling coming from the...

I could have sworn that I'd posted this one already... must be just another side-effect of the advancing years... * * * Chapter 273 The day was overcast and muggy as the column set out from the tabaxi settlement. With the three sailors joining the group they now numbered eleven, not counting...

Chapter 272 Dawn found the members of the expedition gathered on one of the lower platforms of the tabaxi village, a scant thirty feet above the forest floor below. Each of them checked and rechecked their gear, including the leather packs provided by their hosts that contained food and gourds...

Chapter 271 The tabaxi village was an odd juxtaposition of traditional structures and three dimensionality, tied together by a complex map of bridges and rope lines, branches bound together or otherwise shaped to form avenues, and in more than one case dangling vines that the inhabitants used...

Chapter 270 The meeting with the tabaxi elders took place at dusk. Bredan could still hardly believe what he was seeing as he and a select cohort of the shipwrecked survivors were escorted to the Hall of Feathers. The tabaxi—they had finally learned the name of their hosts, thanks to...

Chapter 269 Galendra made one last effort to break free, but only managed to fall back onto her side. The bars of the cage that had so stymied her would be no barrier at all to the dragon-man’s spear, she knew. She tensed as it lifted the weapon to strike, but the expected blow did not come...

Chapter 268 Tightly bound in her tiny cell, Galendra tried to ignore the competing complaints of her body and think. Her head still throbbed, and even the tiny slivers of light that made it through the cracks in the walls of the hut made her eyes water. She could hear the sounds of activity...

Well, they have their own campaign setting that was published by Green Ronin. I suppose the biggest challenge would be swapping over their streamed game to a new ruleset. They've done it before (the pre-stream game was originally Pathfinder). But it would be pretty hard to do in the middle of a...

Chapter 267 Drazakatharas was not happy. The young black snapped the butt of his spear against the ground as he walked, expressing his displeasure with each loud crack of the weapon. It was a gesture of pique and he hated himself for that, and for the fact that he’d only started doing it when...

Chapter 266 Sometime in the recent past, a local calamity had toppled one of the ancient giants of the forest. The tree had sagged into the grasp of several of its neighbors, forming an awkward ramp slick with clinging vines and damp lichens. The violent death of the tree had torn up its...

Chapter 265 The bushes shifted again, and a second cat-man came into view. This one was slightly smaller and darker than the first, but more notable were the obvious scars that covered its legs and lower torso. “That’s the one we helped out of the trap!” Glori said. “It looks quite...

Chapter 264 Morning brought with it a sharp wind that blew in off the ocean, swirling through the jungle and causing the dense greenery to sway as it passed through. Gray clouds streamed ashore to the south, though it looked as though they would not come close enough to threaten the expedition...

Chapter 263 Galendra’s head was throbbing. She could still taste the iron tang of blood, though it was somewhat overpowered by the rank flavor of the gag pulled painfully tight across her mouth. Her arms were tied behind her back, and her shoulders felt as though someone had jabbed hot...

Chapter 262 The sun had already dipped behind the crest of the jungle canopy when the companions returned to the beach, so it was in deepening twilight that they explored a scene of destruction. The fires that they had spotted from the Syvalian ruin had burned out, leaving just smoldering...

Chapter 261 The dinosaurs moved incredibly fast, closing the distance between them and their prey in just a few bounds, but the adventurers were ready. Glori summoned the power of her magical lyre, evoking a wall of fire that erupted in a blazing arc across the center of the clearing. Two of...

Chapter 260 Scattered rays of sunlight drifted down through the gaps in the forest canopy high above. It was almost noon, so those stray beams actually made it all the way down to where the companions were gathered. They sparkled on the rippling waters of a small pool fed by a tiny brook that...

Thanks for the kudos, carborundum! I will admit, I had to spend considerable time on Wikipedia while writing the ship-based sequences. * * * Book 11: A NEW WORLD Chapter 259 The temporary camp was looking less temporary by the minute, as the shipwrecked survivors from the Golden Gull made...
