Message: <blockquote data-quote="Richards" data-source="post: 9379509" data-attributes="member: 508">In tonight's "Ghourmand Vale" adventure, the PCs:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Listened as the human sorcerer explained a dream spell he'd received the previous night, wherein a bard associate of theirs said he was stranded on an island 20 days' ship travel south of Greyhawk City and needed a rescue</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Had the druid cast a scrying spell on the bard, seeing he was in no immediate danger (which was good to know, since we could teleport to Greyhawk but had no idea which island he was stranded on, just the general area, so it was going to be a pretty slow-motion rescue, taking at least 20 days)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Teleported to Greyhawk City and got the assistance of the sorcerer's older brother, who ran a fleet of merchant ships, and determined the island the bard was likely shipwrecked on</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Spent the next 19 uneventful days on a merchant ship heading to where we wanted to go; since the bard's ship had been wrecked by a kraken and we didn't want the same thing to happen to the merchant ship, we agreed we'd teleport to the island as soon as it came into view and the ship could continue on without us (we could teleport back to Ghourmand Vale once we'd rescued the bard)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Were approached by a pirate vessel the night before we were scheduled to reach the island, but our elf archer set all three of the pirates' sails ablaze from half a mile out with a bunch of alchemist's fire arrows (heightened with a maximized flame arrow spell cast on her ammo by my sorcerer)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Once the pirate ship was dead in the water with no sails, had my sorcerer's grackle fly over for a look-see under a greater invisibility spell, and he reported back it would likely take them hours to get back up and running</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Got awakened the next morning by a sudden windstorm out of nowhere, the initial attack by the kraken coming for our ship</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Fought off the kraken and killed it, but not before two of the 19 crewmen were slain</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Continued heading for for the island, still about two hours away</li> </ul>We leveled up after the adventure was over - we're now all 13th-level PCs.  Next session, we'll get to the island and see about rescuing the bard.Johnathan</blockquote>
