Unmanaged carnage….” Mumbles the summoner.They walk on then, into New Water with the oily dark blue water with multi-colored beads seetled on the floor.The first group they encounter,  three hobgoblins (one on a gurney) did see such a caravan in the distance.  They point directly behind them then move on as the injured member coughs up some blood.  Zig gives them a potion to help with the injuries.A second group has not seen any such caravan but witnessed a large creature, a giant lizard on two feet, attack a group.  They avoided (fled) the creature before being seen.A third group tries to avoid them but can not.   The poor kobolds are slowed by the water as it is waist deep to them.    They saw a large flying strange creature three days ago near the wall of black glass.  They also saw a tall rampaging beast attack a large group of humans and dwarves.   There was a caravan with unusual large wagons being pulled towards the NE corner of The Hidden.Tyson thanks them and offers a silent prayer to them (something few know- he is a follower of The Traveler) and waves as they leave.Late afternoon they spot something in the near distance.   It is big and seems to be moving quickly towards them.“I…. don’t like …this.” Says the knight as he enters a battle stance.“It looks like….. a running on two legs lizard.” Adds Ayru.“Sword tooth?   Maybe a Crested Tooth….” Quietly mumbles the changeling.”“A what?” asks Tyson preparing his bow.“I spent some time in the Talenta Plains with the halflings.   They feared a creature…. A dinosaur that lived near the jungles but came into the fields to feed.    The biggest of these was called a Sword Tooth.  Morgrave renamed them Tyrannosaurus Rex.   The King of Thunder Lizards.”“Dan Dan of the jungle…. Friend to you and me….   Was dangerous?” giggles the summoner whom is clearly becoming more unhinged by the day.“Very.”“And the Crested Tooth?”  asks Ayru eyeing the creature that is clearly headed their way.“Morgrave calls them Allosaurus.   Not as big as the T-Rex but still dangerous.   They had boney crests over their eyes for protection.”“Crested Tooth it is.” Comments Tyson with his very keen eyes.The blue creature rushes at them and they dodge it as best as they can.   It stands over twelve feet and with its long tail exceeds twenty feet in length.  The large mouth nearly makes contact several times.  As it turns and twists in a circle the tail whips about creating a possible threat of being swatted and tripped.“Enough” declares the knight whom steps in and under it mouth.  Feldrix thrusts straight up blindly and amazes everyone as he strikes it in the soft area of the jaw and drives the sword into the brain.  (nat 20 and confirmed with a nat 20=  auto kill house rules)“Impressive” comments Tyson from a safer distance.</blockquote>
