(those 2 silver pieces are mine!)Magic items. Scroll Dust Devil. Scroll Erupting Earth. Scroll of Earthbind. Scroll Maximillian’s Earthen Grasp. Scroll Transmute Earth.Loot items. 10 bottles of cheap booze each. Earth Cult Priest outfit. Key to M21. 4 burnt biscuits.I had a very strong group of eight. Ember Life Cleric 4 Human. Liu Fang (Luo) monk 5 Aasimar. Sly sorcerer 5 changeling. Bucky Berserker Barbarian 5 human. Zephron twilight cleric 5 Human. Magic Wild Mage 5 Half-orc. Geronimo Barbarian 5 Half-orc. Philip druid 4 Tiefling.Liu Feng, “I was just blowing wind into the sails.”Phillip, “I was just swimming alongside as eel.”Geronimo, “well the river boat is stuck in top of the tree. So, we will have to walk back to Red Larch. It going take us a day.”The first part of the day is okay until they reach the Revivers Ambush. Shoalar Quanderil, “take a dirt nap adventurers!”Ember, “How are you alive?”Shoalar Quanderil, “great Revivify and raise dead medical with the water cult.” Five minutes later Shoalar is taking a dirt nap but did reveal the secret tunnel under the Riverguard Keep.Arriving in town Liu makes date plans with Haeleeya. After dropping a huge amount of five gold, she reveals that Sacred Stone monastery has changed hands to the earth cult. After a great night, the group moves on to the monastery. Liu has a cunning plan. He will post as monk to get entrance.Liu, “I am Liu Fang, monk of far east. The wind billows my cloak on how awesome I am. I would like to join your group.”Bob, “Bob from Birmingham. I just though you had a case of the winds. But I will take you to Quarbo. He handles admissions.” Liu notes the path to the main office. Quarbo and his two body guards scope out Liu.Liu, “I am Liu Fang, monk of far east. The wind billows my cloak on how awesome I am. I would like to join your group.”Quarbo, “Quarbo of the quarry. We are a very simple group of monks. HEY DM what is with the spooky music? First you must give up all your material wealth.”Liu, “Including my cloak of billowing. I won through.”Quarbo, “Walmart black Friday Special. Not so hot.”Liu, “but I didn’t get from Walmart.”Quarbo, “so ripped off from Esty. You must give up all material wealth.”Liu, “Here my cloak, and cash.”Quarbo, “You must give up all material wealth.”Liu, “Here is my back pack and shirt. Just me and my underwear.”Quarbo, “You must give up all material wealth.”Liu, “I am not giving up my chest oil. Give me back my stuff.” Bob escorts him to the end of the property line and waves good bye. But Liu did get some information. Scouting gives them more. The second cunning plan. West group, East Group, and Kick in the door group. They will all go in at dusk and meet at the main office.(DM NOTE did a five-minute timer and then switched group. Will summarize.)East group opens the door into the indoor garden and using language skills and earth cult garb confused the gargoyle guards. The guards wave to them as they enter the main office.West group invades the kitchen just before dinner time and microwaves (Spirit Guardians) the staff. They move into the refectory and nearly die. But the monks are more interested in taking prisoners than double tapping. Zephron double taps them with microwaves and then enter the main office as the umber hulk disappears into the floor after snacking on Bucky.The door kickers flank right. The Scriptorium is empty. The stairs are scary. Mother Abbess punches hard but goes down after ripping off a handful of chest hair from Liu. The Distillery is empty. The monks in the dojo try to dog pile Liu but that doesn’t work. The last door is arcane locked and when shrunk, the door knob nearly puts out Magic’s eye.A ghost goes by. Oreioth the dead necromancer walks by Philip. “Hey Phil. Come me my boss.” Renwick is a nice old dude. Kind of smelly. Loves flower gardening, necromancy, press flowers and bodies under large heavy objects. He is currently subleasing the place and would you kindly do an old Lich a favor and evict the cultists.The group takes the contract and meets up with their buddies. And then murder the rest of floor using moonbeam and spike growth.DM Note Take a long rest. And you have the basement next time.End of Session 600.</blockquote>
