Message: <blockquote data-quote="TallIan" data-source="post: 7528563" data-attributes="member: 6853819">Session 3 – Flight I find myself fighting a giant spider alongside Eldeth, until Anton joins the fight in the room.  I need to buy Jimjar time to get my spellbook and Eldeth is desperate for her shield.  Outside, the drow outpost comes under attack from some sort of deamon, distracting the guards from us.  The rest of the prisoners call out, they’re jumping down to the pool we hope is under the waterfall.  Jimjar appears with armfuls of stuff – my spellbook I hope – and heads to where everyone is jumping.  Anton and I finally convince Eldeth to abandon her shield and follow us.I jump down.  Splashing, to my great relief, in a dark pool.  The other escapees call to me, there is something in the water.  I the dark I can only head towards their calls.  Once on solid ground a summon some light, not enough to see the whole cavern, but it gives our band of escapees a central point.  Shushar helps get everyone out of the pool, most importantly Jimjar, who was fighting with some unseen monster under the water.  Sadly Eldeth doesn’t follow us down, and we begin a map flight east  towards Sloobludop, led by Sarith and Shushar.Once it is clear the drow aren’t following us immediately, we stop briefly to gather ourselves.  Much to his credit Jimjar held onto the stuff he salvaged from the priestess’ quarters.  His end of the deal complete I hand over the gem.  He also has my wand, I could live without it, but components here are going to be hard to come by, so I promise him 20GP for the wand, something that he accepts.  Many of us heard a voice calling us to the service of the faceless lord.  My study leads me to believe this is Juiblex, the deamonlord of oozes and shapeless things.  Could the monster in the pool have been an ooze?After our brief stop, we set off at a steady pace, hoping to gather food and other supplies along the way.  We are rewarded with some edible mushrooms and some that can be processed into dye for trade, without some means to carry them though, we are limited in what we can take with us.After some time, the temperature drops and the ground begins to freeze.  According to Sarith this is not uncommon.   Slipping along the icy floor, we come across a body, fumbling around in the dark reveals nothing, but when I summon a light, 3 piercers drop from the ceiling attacking.  We manage to quickly dispatch them while Jimjar helps himself to whatever was on the body.  I try to confront him about it, but there is nothing I can really do without resorting to violence and I am unwilling to test the rest of the groups loyalties to that degree.  He didn’t get everything though as I managed to find a pouch containing some dust of disappearance. Under Sarith’s direction we find somewhere safe to stop and rest.</blockquote>
