Although the stop at the inn allowed them to cold down, the afternoon sun is now shining brightly. It’s not long before they are all sweaty and laboring. The metal on Rika’s and Sturm’s armors becomes almost too hot to touch while those in leather armor are starting to find the thick hide uncomfortable. Good thing they have plenty of water.Two hours pass before they reach a very large and old oak, just like Debra said earlier. On the side of this tree lies a small path, leading off the road, to the north east, and into the wooded hills. The dirt path is barely wide enough for a small cart. A small wood sign is planted on the side of it. It’s old and the painted message is almost completely worn out. The group can only decipher a few bits of it.“Ap..e Gla…..0 m..esB..are of t…..te..ap.”Most of them aren’t affected too badly by the heat except for Planus who’s now getting dizzy and weak. He find the large shade provided by the oak really inviting.Planus, experienced with the dangers of the wilderness, thinks of various ways he could protect himself, and possibly others, from the heat, but they would have to travel slower. [OOC: see the survival skill]OOC: Fortitude rolls for the heatDevlin 1st: 19+2-2(leather armor)=19 (success); 2nd: 19 (success). (wow!)Ironwolf 1st: 10+4-2(leather)=12 (success); 2nd: 13+2=15 (success).Planus 1st: 7+2-2(leather)=7 (failure); 2nd: 10 (failure); Planus takes 2d4 of nonlethal damage: 3+4=7 (two more and he passes out).Rika 1st: 15+2-4(metal armor)=13 (success); 2nd: 15-2=13 (success).Sturm 1st: 9+7-4(metal armor)=12 (success); 2nd: 1+3=4 (failure); Sturm takes 1d4 of nonlethal damage: 1 (doesn’t bothers him much).Rolls were also made for your horses and the donkey, but I’m keeping the results secret  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" /> . They are all laboring though (but not on the verge of death).EDIT: I forgot to mention that Sturm and Planus are both fatigued.</blockquote>
