A Spiked Drink

"Aye, I keep hearing it, too. There's a wee creature around," Daylily whispers. "I do enjoy the hunt, but living here, it's doubtful it's fair for the eating of."

Even as Daylily says the creature has to be uneatable, some of you see what it is. A monstrous cube was seen passing through the intersection ahead of you. It, however, as failed to notice you, and it continues forward past the intersection without stopping. Relic at once knows what it is, a gelatinous cube.
 


"The best way to deal with a gelatinous cube is to leave it be. Destroying it does no one a favour. It's probably the only thing that cleans up under here. And it only bothers the shady characters who use these tunnels and are probably up to no good. Messing with it can only put our lives at risk needlessly. Quietly, lets move on..."

Though the light is bad, it's quite clear that Relic has gone quite pale.
 

Daylily grimaces. "I've little truck with those wee bits of metal you civilized folk eat with, but I werre that tae proper partake of this beastie, you'd need one of those little rounded ones ... what d'ye name it? 'Spoo' or something akin tae that? Tah, let's move on."
 

The halfling perks up as Daylily mentions spoo and comments, "You have such a delicacy as well?" She nods to the continuing and follows after the others ocne again.

((Yay B-5 reference!))
 

Not quite sure whether his companions are talking about spoons or spew Relic keeps quiet, happy to swiftly leave the gelatinous menace behind them.

GM: 200 xp for all for dodging the Gelatinous Cube. [MENTION=75065]jbear[/MENTION], Relic will level on the 11th. I have the XP correct till the 11th. (thanks again SK!)



After spending enough time to wait for the cube to pass by, Relic thought it was safe to keep going.

The party continues down the sewers, stopping every once in a while to get their bearings straightened out. However, the arrows eventually all point in one direction, and after a good hour of walking down in the sewers, you finally see light ahead. It flickers, as though a flame has been lit ahead. It casts an eerie shadow down the tunnel, as though to invite you in...
 

"Thank the Wind and may it blow the stench of this foul place from our nostrils! That looks like the entrance to their den. The place may have wards or traps to keep unwanted visitor stumbling in uninvited. Perhaps Saranna you could take the lead and make sure the way is clear?"

Doubtful there is going to be much to talk about with the evil creatures that doubtlessly await inside Relic takes the opportunity to prepare himself for more bloodshed.

[sblock=OOC] Thanks for the tip about the level up. I suspect that whatever awaits us on the other side of the entrance is going to be brutal if we need to level up! :D I'll level up Relic now so he's ready for tomorrow.
By the way, do we want to go in guns blazing or with a view to talk to try and get information out of the bad guys to clear the potion makers name or with some half baked concocted scheme to bluff our way in, get the information from them unwittingly and then get the drop on them in the fight?

"Hold there," Daylily says. "Tiny Hunter, would ye care to scout ahead for us? I'd rather nae we hurry into an ambush in our eagerness to have the sky over our heads once more."
