The women think this quite amusing while the men are happy enough to drink and eat at the tavern before retiring to bed.<img src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/3ohc0RGbTHc6TsFcbe/200.gif" alt="donna lynne champlin comedy GIF by Another Period" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />The girls wander the streets thinking they are safe because "There are no men" but I remind them that women can stab you in the back and steal your pouch just as easy as a dude.  They peek into a dark alley and then decide to retire as well to the inn.  They meet an Elf who is happy to join the group.The next day they continue to the mountains and find the ruined the palace and enter it.The find a branching path and take the eastern route.  The soon find a room filled with clear water that occasionally bubbles.  Whats causing the bubbles?The Fighter shoots an arrow into the water which causes 12 large bubbles to surfer and attack!  It's an easy fight except for the Dwarf who is paralyzed and almost drowned, but they rescue him before he drowns.Further on they descend some stairs that just dead What can they do?  Bust through the wall of course!Taking a couple of hours to chip away with a hammer and pitons they get through the not-so-secret door and continue on.The eventually find a room with paintings of a princess holding a large ruby and a knight in blue armor.  They search and search for a secret door but can't find it.  They try back into the hallway and do find a secret door.Behind this secret door is a small room with 4 statues and a book on a bench.  The Fighter runs in to get the book but disturbs an acidic ooze!  He quickly flees while others rush in.  The battle is quick but several weapons are lost to the acid.  Luckily they all had backup weapons.  And no armor was lost!<img src="https://media0.giphy.com/media/4XX2YUuAkw1T8LanzV/200.gif" alt="Art 8Bit GIF" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />The book was a story about a princess who meets a blue armored knight and marries him.  Her "heart" is hidden in a wooden box somewhere in the castle.  Is this the ruby?They backtrack and take a different passage and find a door.  It opens into a closet where sweet moldy air wafts out. It knocks out 2 of the heroes.  They ones still awake drag the sleeping ones away and wake them and proceed onward.Back near the entrance, they try another door and find a storage room that seems a safe place to rest for a moment.</blockquote>
